The Constancia copper-molybdenum project currently being explored by Norsemont Mining Inc. is located 20km to the east; the high-profile Liam epithermal gold project of Newmont Peru Limited/Southwestern Resources Corp. is located 50km to the southwest; while BHP Billiton's Tintaya copper-gold-silver porphyry-related skarn skarn In geology, a metamorphic zone developed in the contact area around igneous rock intrusions when carbonate sedimentary rocks are invaded by and replaced with chemical elements that originate from the igneous rock mass nearby. deposit is located 60km to the southeast. Work to date by the Company has comprised preliminary mapping, rock and silt sampling focused on the eastern portion of the property in the general area where limited previous drilling was carried out. A summary of significant results from the preliminary sampling program is presented below in Table 1. The distribution of the samples is shown on the map accompanying this news release.
