Baroyeca Gold & Silver (BGS) announced that its geologists have found copper mineralization at its Zapatoca Project.

The project is located in Santander Department, Colombia.

Raul Sanabria, P.Geo., President of Baroyeca, commented on the discovery.

“Finding sedimentary copper in this area was totally unexpected and it underlines the potential Colombia still has to offer new mineral discoveries. We have staked the surrounding area, providing the company with another exploration project at no cost or dilution to our shareholders. Sediment-hosted stratiform copper deposits represent one of the most-exciting copper exploration prospects in Cesar Department in northeastern Colombia, but this potential has not previously been seen in nearby Santander. With demand increasing for copper exploration projects, for Baroyeca, this could be a starting point towards becoming a project generator in the country.”

Baroyeca has secured 4,000 hectares following the stratigraphic contacts of the Giron and Los Santos formation as first movers in this zone.
