Target
Epithermal Gold-Silver plus high grade indium in del Indio vein; disseminated gold in silicified breccias. Zinc, lead and other base metal mineralization intercepts.

Comments
Ore targets are high grade gold-silver deposits in epithermal veins and disseminated in Jurassic volcanics. Marifil Mines Ltd. has the right to earn a 100% interest (see Marifil news release dated June 18, 2007) in the 70,046 hectare San Roque project, where strong mineralization has been found within a structural corridor at least 10 kms wide and 20 kms long.

Business / Work Plan
Minimum 2,500 metre (m) diamond drill program as well as trenching, mapping and sampling programs progressing.

Drilling Objectives
  • To expand the extensive and open-ended zones of high-grade indium (In), gold (Au) and/or base metals, particularly zinc (Zn) and lead (Pb) previously identified by drilling.
  • To complete initial drilling on a number of newly identified areas that surface geochemical sampling, geophysics and geological mapping show to be prospective for similar base metal/indium mineralization.

The Phase-1, 28-diamond drill hole (DDH) program intercepted high-grade Indium (In), Zinc (Zn), Silver (Ag) and Gold (Au), along with other base metals, particularly Lead (Pb). These intercepts include 5.1 meters of 2.61 g/t Au; 24 g/t Ag; and, 30.4 g/t In in DDH 11 and 0.75 meters of 2.05 g/t Au; 0.22 % Pb; 0.32% Zn; and, 448 g/t In. in DDH 7, and 117 m of 0.95% Zn in DDH 4 including 4.5 meters of 0.37 g/t Au; 499 g/t In and 6.64% Zn.
