| Location of the La Tortuga Project |
|
The La Tortuga project is located in the State of Jalisco approximately a 3 hour drive south-west from Guadalajara by paved highway and dirt road. A large portion of the property formed part of the National Mine Reserve in Jalisco before denationalization in 1993.

| History of the La Tortuga Project |
|
Mining was last carried out at the turn of the century by Americans at the historic Las Garrochas gold-silver mine and the Macuchi silver-copper mine. From 1993 to 1998, surface trenching, geochemical surveys, geophysics and a reverse circulation program were completed.

| Geology of the La Tortuga Project |
|
|
The property is host to both epithermal polymetallic gold-copper-silver vein systems and large zones of argillic alteration associated with outcropping, mineralized, porphyritic intrusives. The property appears to be hosted in a window of the Sierra Madre Occidental volcanic arc that has been overlain by the Trans-Mexican Volcanic Belt in the surrounding areas of Jalisco.
