Mexico - Planchas de Plata
Planchas de Plata is located in Sonora state, northern Mexico, approximately 10 km from Real Viejo . Recent work includes geological mapping and sampling. A review of initial drilling samples has identified
- A number of mineralized trends that remain open along strike and at depth
- A series of indicators (alteration, geochemistry, geologic and geophysical tends)
Both factors point to the potential for concealed mineralization in the underlying rhyodacite rocks.
In 2005 and 2006, drilling identified continuous high-grade silver mineralization within two shallow, sub-parallel flat-lying zones that extend to a minimum of 80 meters in width, 300 meters in length and range from 15 meters to 30 meters in thickness.
Low-grade mineralization extends in all directions from the main zone.
