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.
