La Guyane française, officially Department of Guiana, French overseas department (2005 est. pop. and the Abancay property in Peru. The results obtained from completed programs and programs in progress have not yet allowed Cambiex to establish any mining potential on these properties. However, on three properties, Dormex, Yaou and Hamburg, promising gold bearing zones were discovered. In order to achieve a better balance of exploration activities, Cambiex decided to orient its efforts towards projects proven to be profitable in the short and medium term. Accordingly, several important properties are under study and Cambiex may make acquisitions or joint venture agreements before the end of the year. In summary, Cambiex is focusing on properties that are in production, development or an advanced stage of exploration. Gold is Cambiex's primary metal of interest, but other products are not excluded: all decisions will be a function of the level of profitability. Within the framework of its strategy, Cambiex sold its 17.5 percent share in the Polo Sur copper project in Chile to Magma Copper Chile for an amount of US $525,000. Cambiex considers this an appropriate time to realize its share of the value of this asset. The proceeds will mainly be invested in the other gold exploration properties. A 1 percent Net Smelter Return royalty was also retained on production from the property. Cambiex has 17.5 percent of this royalty, while the remaining share goes to Cambior (82.5 percent).
