Vortex Metals Completes Trenching, Sampling and Mapping Program To Complete the Environmental Study at the Zaachila Project
Following from community agreements in both the Zaachila and Riqueza Marina concessions, field activities commenced in June at both project areas.

- At Zaachila, trenching across portions of the exhalite/volcanic breccia/trondjemhite horizon has occurred where historical sampling revealed significant copper values over a "strike" distance of several kilometers.
- A total of 387 meters of trench have been cut yielding a total of 271 chip samples (excluding QA/QC samples).
- Mapping of the trenches, along with the limited surface exposures, has provided Vortex with a more complete view of the surface geology (Figure 3).
