Mirasol continues to rationalize its project portfolio in Santa Cruz to allow the Company to focus exploration on other high potential targets.
In 2019, Rugby conducted ground magnetic surveys which identified structural features considered prospective for gold mineralization beneath gravel cover. The initial geochemical program defined 10 zones of anomalous gold-silver geochemistry ranging from 320m to 2,800m in length along these structures. A number of these anomalies have coincident lower pH readings suggesting an acidic environment which can indicate oxidizing sulfides at depth, an association common to other epithermal projects in the region.
Mr. Bryce Roxburgh, CEO of Rugby commented, “We are using a similar exploration approach to that successfully employed for drill targeting at the multi-million ounce gold-silver Cerro Moro deposit. The El Zanjon area has been ignored in the past due to the absence of outcrop.
