Guerrero Exploration has announced a field programme that is working towards fine-tuning the Leona target for drill testing at the Chapalota project, Mexico in June.
Mainly, the Chapalota property is an orogenic gold project and previously the company has outlined the Leona target previously by geological mapping of sparse outcrops of the north-south trending fault that holds up to 32.1 g/t of gold values.
Guerrero has started an induced polarization (IP) dipole-dipole survey to define the fault orientation under cover. It has engaged Geofisica TMC to finish the seven IP lines above the Leona target. The primary results have shown an east dipping conductive zone, which is inferred to describe the fault. Guerrero has doubled the survey for additional seven lines, because of the survey success in finding the fault under cover. The survey information is significant for locating the drill hole collars to test for mineralization on the length of the fault extension.
The company has begun drilling with a man portable diamond drill. Currently, a bulldozer is developing the roads for improved drill access. For controlling the drill collar sites geologically, an excavator is presently on site to dig the drill lines to have an enhanced geological control of the drill hole collar sites and to aid in the analysis of drill sections.
