The Zuloaga property is also near the Concepcion del Oro mining district where past production from this district is estimated at 250 million ounces of silver and 1.5 million ounces of gold. Concepcion del Oro produced gold and silver from a variety of deposit styles including skarns, mantos, breccias and disseminated deposits in favorable lithologies.

The Company has carried out mapping and sampling on the Zuloaga Concession. This principally consists of re-examination of areas with small mines and prospects, in order to: Assess the potential for associated bulk-mineable, disseminated deposits not economic for the historic small miners and prospectors of the region and, better understand the styles and controls of mineralization in the area to prospect for blind deposits, covered by alluvium/colluvium or unmineralized strata.
