In addition to the Copper Gold Porphyry Deposit, Valeriano also hosts the near surface Gold Oxide Deposit and the newly discovered GBV gold zone (July 6, 2021 ATEX press release).

Key Points: 
  • In addition to the Copper Gold Porphyry Deposit, Valeriano also hosts the near surface Gold Oxide Deposit and the newly discovered GBV gold zone (July 6, 2021 ATEX press release).
  • "This new area provides a significant exploration opportunity and, during the upcoming drill season, represents a high priority target for the expansion of the Valeriano Copper Gold Porphyry Deposit."
  • The relogging program developed the identification of six distinctive porphyry intrusives with five related to the development of the porphyry copper gold mineralization (VP1 to VP5) and one post mineral, dacitic intrusive that cuts all stages of mineralization: copper gold porphyry and gold oxide.
  • This evidence supports the interpretation that the Valeriano porphyry system may extend to the southwest of previous area of drilling and the copper gold mineralization may also occur closer surface in this unexplored area.
