Mine Life2038
Campo Morado includes an underground polymetallic mine with a concentrator.

The Campo Morado Mine, since commissioning the copper concentrate circuit in Q2-2022, has realized improved results and this trend is expected to continue in 2023. A greater strategic focus on copper production was prompted by a change in ore sources within the underground mine, as mining moved into areas with higher copper grade ores.

Deposit Type

  • VMS

Summary:

Campo Morado hosts volcanogenic massive sulphide or “VMS” type mineralization. The Campo Morado district is home to several distinct deposits occurring mainly in the Campo Morado felsic volcanic unit near its upper contact. Most of these deposits occur in a roughly four kilometre long, southwest-northeast trending grouping within the central part of the Campo Morado mining concessions and are locally offset tens to hundreds of metres from one another by late extensional faults. To the northeast, the overturned Reforma and El Rey deposits are separated from the Naranjo and El Largo deposits by a major thrust fault along the axial zone of a recumbent anticline. To the southwest of these latter two deposits, the La Lucha, San Rafael and G9 deposits occur as metre scale auriferous massive sulphide lenses with associated small stringer zones at the same stratigraphic level as the Naranjo deposit. Several other massive sulphide and stringer zones occur elsewhere along a 25 kilometre long belt that extends northnortheast and south-southwest from the central district. These include La Suriana district deposits, found in a faulted sequence of strongly altered felsic to intermediate volcanic rocks about 1,000 metre higher in structural section and several kilometres to the south of the Campo Morado district. The Campo Morado property hosts several precious metal-rich volcanic associated massive sulphide deposits, which occur in a sequence of felsic to intermediate flows and tuffs, an ........

Mining Methods

  • Block caving
  • Room-and-pillar

Summary:

During Campo Morado’s last full production year of 2014 only zinc and copper concentrates were recovered using room and pillar mining methods, Telson is planning to restart mining operations employing block caving mining methods to potentially reduce mining costs with an emphasis on maximizing recoveries of all economic metals including gold, silver, zinc, lead and copper. Additionally, Telson is planning to focus mining activities to zones outlined within the defined resources where higher precious metal content is available.

Production:
Production of lead concentrate was curtailed in lieu of higher quality copper concentrate, but before the strategic decision was made during 2022 Campo Morado produced 3,974 tonnes of lead concentrate.
