Summary:

The Lomada gold deposit, located south-southeast of the community of Perito Moreno. in the western part of the Deseado Massif, is a classic, low-sulfidation epithermal mineral system. Precious metal mineralization at Lomada is hosted in a NNE-striking, steeply ESE-dipping structure (the “Main Breccia”). -Low sulphidation, epithermal gold system hosted in a NNEstriking, steeply ESE-dipping structure (Main Breccia) - Previous mining occurred from a portion of the Main Breccia over a 600 m strike, up to 20 m width and more than 150 m in depth. Although the Patagonia has commenced extraction of minerals at the Lomada properties, the Patagonia does not have defined mineral reserves as defined under Regulation S-K and therefore mining propertie is considered to be in the exploration stage.
