MERCEDES PROPERTY

Overview

Mercedes is located 43 km from Alamos Gold 3 Moz Mulatos Gold Mine, 40 km from Agnico’s 1 Moz La India Gold Mine, and adjacent to Minera Alamos’ Santana and Santa Rosa projects. Infrastructure and support services are available to the project. A paved highway, Federal Hwy 16, runs through the western portion of the claims. Electricity, mail, phone services and accommodation are available at the nearby villages of Yecora and Santana. An electrical line (C.F.E.) runs through the property parallel to the highway.

Property Location

Positioned towards the western edge of the mineral province, Mercedes is predominantly underlain by intrusive rocks, granodiorite-monzonite plutonic rocks and quarts feldspar porphyry dykes and stocks exposed by erosion of intermediate and felsic volcanic packages of the lower and upper volcanic sequences.

The thick volcanic sequences are characteristic of the region and form much of the Sierra Madre Occidental. Outcrop in key areas of the property are strongly altered, brecciated intrusives and some propylitically altered volcanics. Zoned assemblages of silica, vuggy silica, phyllic, argillic and distal propylitic alteration are recognized. The main prospect area “La Lamosa” is a prominent, highly oxidized red ridge, visible from the highway. At least two additional early stage targets have been identified within the claim boundaries.

Geology & Mineralization

Mercedes project contains two different types of mineralization:

Disseminated gold and silver near surface mineralization indicative of a high-sulphidation epithermal system in volcanic rocks, confirmed by drilling at La Lamosa and by intensive sampling at Mina de Oro.
Structurally controlled quartz/ tourmaline breccia system consisting of high-grade gold, silver and base metals mineralization, within a granodiorite batholith correlated to the different temperatures of a hydrothermal system. Intensive surface mapping and sampling identified the areas known as Salto Colorado, Noche Buena, La Cueva and La Olvidada.

EXPLORATION

hase 1 Reverse Circulation Exploration Program: reverse circulation drilling in 21 holes totalling 2,723 meters was completed in Q4, 2019. This phase confirmed near surface gold/silver mineralization along 300 meters of La Lamosa Ridge.

Open mineralization continues at depth towards the SW of the ridge.

The following table summarizes main drill intercepts at Lamosa Hill
