Chino Copper Mine, New Mexico

Project Portfolio

Chino-Tyrone District, New Mexico

  • Two major projects with drill-indicated mineralization in the Chino-Tyrone District and on major trends
  • Two adjacent, world class, multi-billion ton porphyry copper deposits currently in production by Freeport-McMoRan (mined since 1910)
  • Mainly low-cost copper oxide leach production from SX-EW plants

Lone Mountain, New Mexico

  • Porphyry copper/skarn system with multiple, stacked mineralized targets, including near-surface oxide mineralization
  • Within sight of the large Tyrone and Chino porphyry copper deposits owned by Freeport-McMoran
  • Potential for open pit copper oxide deposit and high-grade underground Cu-Zn skarns
  • 47 historical drill holes indicate potential for in excess of 100 million tonnes of .20 - .30% Cu oxide

Mimbres, New Mexico

  • Porphyry copper-molybdenum system with higher-grade copper-zinc-gold-silver-bearing skarns
  • Large open pit copper oxide target located 11km southeast of Chino open pit copper mine
  • Inadequately tested to date. Many similarities to Lone Mountain and Chino

Arizona Projects

Twin Peaks, Arizona

  • Partially drilled copper oxide deposit with large open pit potential

West Safford, Arizona

  • Large tonnage, buried "Resolution-type" porphyry copper target

Teague Springs, Arizona

  • Large tonnage, buried copper-molybdenum-silver-gold porphyry target

West Jerome, Arizona

  • High-potential massive sulfide target in the western Jerome Mining District, Arizona
  • Proximal to the United Verde and United Verde Extension mines, which have produced over 98% of the past production from the famous Jerome mining district
