Southern Bolivar is located on the Serrania de San Lucas, northern
foothills of the Cordillera Central of Colombia and is the geological
continuity of the mining districts of north-eastern Antioquia. From
published information from Mines and Energy in Bolivar State, the main
mineralogical composition in these areas is massive sulphide veins
(>80% pyrite) with quartz as a kind of matrix.
The Monte Cristo Tiquisio area, according to the latest census conducted, this area may contain about
500 to 600 "mines" and around 3,000 people working. Gold vein
mineralization are presented with thicknesses ranging from 0.24 m to
4.0 m. With structural trend N50 ° -70 ° E and dips to 75 ° towards the
SE. The veins may have lengths in the course of several kilometers and
averages tenors ranging from 0.2 to 65.0 g / t gold.
The Santa Rosa Canelos area, this area contains some 300 "mines" and about 1,500 people working.
Although no systematic exploration work has been done on any of these
licenses, several gold mineralized structures are currently being mined
by local miners at Mina Penon and Mina Walter which have been
identified as extending unto Midasco's license 583.
The Company is mobilizing an exploration crew to the properties for an
initial exploration program of mapping and sampling in order to
identify immediate drill targets.
