Cordoba Minerals Corp. is pleased to announce that the Company has been granted Mining Titles on an additional 3,200 hectares covering the southern 8 km of the San Matias copper gold porphyry trend where recent drilling in the northernmost area along the porphyry trend returned 101 metres of 1.0% Cu and 0.65 gpt Au at Montiel and 87 metres of 0.62% Cu and 0.52 gpt Au at Costa Azul.
"With these titles in hand, advanced exploration on additional targets can begin at our San Matias Copper Gold Project building on our recent exploration success at Montiel and Costa Azul", commented Mario Stifano, CEO.
Current surface sampling programs along the southern 8 kilometres of the 12 km main porphyry trend has identified numerous targets related to both porphyry-style mineralization and alteration halos over large areas (Betesta, Costa Rica, Nieves). Additionally, both high-grade gold targets associated with quartz-pyrrhotite-chalcopyrite veining over significant strike lengths of over 500 metres are associated with zones of artisanal open-pit and underground mining at the Mina Ra and Escondida targets that also host porphyry style alteration halos in adjacent host rocks. Furthermore skarn/replacement style mineralization and alteration has also been located at the Buenos Aires and Botero targets. The main porphyry trend is defined by a 12 kilometre long linear north-south trending structural corridor that hosts multiple intrusive porphyry centres, as defined by airborne magnetics and displays extensive zones of surface gold-copper-silver anomalism.
