Ann: New Project Delivers High Grade Silver & Gold, page-14

Another weekend following the same theme as above.

First a brief touch on Opasura from the government map for the area that gives a regional context and a hint of some of the work that has been done on the deposits at Op E and W.

I read an article on the Las Chispas Ag/Au deposit that piqued my interest and found this advance prospect was quite near Oso Negro.  I suspect there are some similarities in that both are Au Ag vein related in a similar geological environment.  Further research led to the Mercedes and Santa Elena Ag/Au mines plus other prospects which suggest a district scale of vein Ag/Au deposits may be present.

ON does not appear to have been drilled or had significant mining which may mean the potential is low.  However, if it has been held by "passive" owners for many years AZS might be a lucky company to have acquired it.

This PDF gives more information on some of the Ag/Au deposits around Oso Negro:
