Mineralization is hosted by lower Cretaceous sandstones of the San Marcos formation, and chip samples from old workings returned values ranging from 0.18% to 1.38% copper. The overlying limestone of the Cupido formation contains zinc oxide mineralization exposed in old workings. Chip samples from two of these areas returned grades ranging from 0.06% to 2.13% lead and 0.12% to 14.75% zinc, while one sample from a waste dump assayed 16.85% lead and 16.35% zinc.
Golden Temple has other exploration projects in Mexico, including Dios Me Ayuda, in Jalisco state. Initial work late last year identified four outcropping occurrences of massive-to-semi-massive pyrite, partly coincident with anomalous copper and/or barium in stream sediments. Follow-up work is planned for this year.
Recent prospecting at the Carmen-El Varal property, in Aguascalientes state, was focused on an iron-rich gossan that returned “highly anomalous” values in lead, zinc, copper, silver and gold.
The junior is seeking new partners to continue work in the Leon-Guanajuato massive sulphide district, following last year’s withdrawal of
