CEO Alastair McIntyre commented,

“We are pleased to have concluded a new agreement for Maria Luísa. These new terms provide the opportunity for Altiplano to acquire 100% of the project and retain 100% of the anticipated profits. Maria Luísa offers a great opportunity to build on our revenue generation model from the development of a high-grade gold/copper historical producer. Our next step is to finalize our design review for the underground development and submit our application for permitting.”

The Maria Luisa gold-copper project is located approximately 100 km north of La Serena at Incahuasi, within the Atacama Region of Chile.

Gold-copper vein-type deposits are part of a well-outlined continuum of mineralization related to extensional fault-bounded environments. This setting is ideal for the discovery of high-grade gold-copper veins, with many examples occurring throughout northern Chile.
