The El Valle Project is located in Villa Hidalgo, northern Sonora, approximately 200 km northeast of Hermosillo and 20 km northeast of the La Caridad Copper Mine (Grupo Mexico). This 519-hectare property offers an exciting early-stage gold-silver opportunity with significant upside.
El Valle is distinguished by its potential to host two distinct mineralizing systems:
- Laramide-age copper mineralization, similar in setting to the nearby La Caridad Mine (~10 Mt Cu reserves), and
- Epithermal Au-Ag veins, comparable to the El Tigre Project of Silver Tiger Metals (70 Moz AgEq), located just 10 km to the west.
The project comprises at least three veins with a proved continuity of 600 m along strike. The Main Targets are defined, however additional surface work such as IP and ground magnetics surveys for specific drill targets can help grow the targets.
Historical workings from the 1940s at the Valenzuela Mine, found within the claim block, focused on a single quartz vein. The project has never been drilled but holds current permits for drilling and is accessible via established infrastructure.
