Geology and Exploration
Location and Regional Geology

Description

• Located 160 km (straight line) to the southeast of Lima


• Hosted within rocks of Casma Group: Cretaceous marine volcano–
sedimentary rocks
• Volcanogenic massive sulfide deposit (VMS)
• Deposit dimensions: 1,500 m long / 1,000 m wide / 470 m height
• The deposit comprises horizontally elongated mushroom-shaped massive
bodies, composed of pyrite (50% to 90%), yellow sphalerite, brown
sphalerite, chalcopyrite, and galena in minor extent
• Significant barite is present mainly at the upper portions of the deposit
• A localized secondary-enrichment zone, composed of chalcocite and
covellite, has formed near-surface where massive sulfides have oxidized
• Silver-rich barite powder remains at surface as a relic of sulfide oxidation
and leaching
• The regional setting and local geology (lithological and structural controls,
alteration pattern, mineral zonation), as well as the depositional
environment and genesis of the deposit, are considered to be well
understood

Orebody and Mineralization

• Massive sulfide formed through black smoker


generating subsea floor replacement into porous
country rock (between 50 and 200 meters below sea
floor)

• Massive sulfide body may be separated into two


different orebodies:

• SPB – barite + sphalerite (Zn ore)

• SPP – pyrite + chalcopyrite (Cu ore)

• The metal zonation perceived in the sketch to the left is


a temperature gradient: from hotter deeper portion
(massive pyrite – barren) to cooler (massive barite +
sphalerite – Zn ore)

• The primary geological framework is overprinted by


deformation and thermal metamorphism (hornfels)

Geology and Exploration
Drilling

• Between 1995 and August 2018, a total of 487,011 m were drilled in 3,489 surface and underground drill holes within the mine area
• Between 2010 and 2015 most of drilling aimed to fill the gap between extensive drilled targets. Although, between 2015 and 2018
exploration headed to identification of new targets
