Tamaya Project
10
Uniquely positioned exploration project covering an extraordinarily high-grade historic copper mining field
Why is Tamaya an attractive exploration project?:
1) World class mineral province - located in a major Chilean metallogenic belt near major mines and deposits
2) Large project area (6,890 ha) offers large tonnage potential
3) Established infrastructure nearby - supports timely, low-cost exploration, and future development and operation
4) Historic mining field, no modern systematic exploration – copper production of 2Mt @ 12%* recovered in the period up to the 19th Century
5) Exploration confirming copper potential – mapping, sampling and geophysics – highlight geological potential
6) Multiple mineralisation and drill targets – high-grade sulphides, bulk tonnage oxides and porphyry targets
* Non JORC data

Services - Mining and exploration services and accommodation in the town of Ovalle, 20 kilometres to the east and Coquimbo 80 kilometres to the north Roads - An extensive network of existing graded tracks that link to asphalt
roads 5 kilometres either side of the property and the national motorway 15 kilometres west Port - Container, cargo and bulk ore-handling port facilities in Coquimbo Power - High and low-tension power lines running parallel to the Pan
American Highway and linking the towns of Cerrillos de Tamaya and Ovalle Water - Water rights have not been sought, but the Limari River has
perennial flow and the project is less than 35 kilometres from the coast
