Laguna Verde is a hyper saline lagoon that is classified as an immature clastic salar. The deposit is composed of a Surface Brine Resource, formed by the brine water volume of the surface lagoon and the Sub-Surface Resource, formed by brine water hosted in volcano-clastic sediments that lies beneath the lagoon.The project is within a closed hydrographic basin of approximately 1,075 km2 , surrounded by a series of volcanoes, and features an active geothermal system with surface manifestations.The lagoon is a free water body and no mineralized structures are expected in the sub surface deposits.DimensionsFor the Surface Brine Resouce the lagoon dimensions are 14,682,408 m2 of area with depths ranging from 0 m to 7.18m with an average depth of 4.05 m.The Sub-Surface Brine Resource is a horizontal lens closely restricted to the lagoon perimeter with an area of approximately 55 km2 and depths for more than 400 m, from approximately 4,309 m a.s.l. to the basement level.
