Geology of the Encrucijada Project |
|
The Encrucijada property hosts a gold and silver bearing, epithermal quartz vein system. The extent of the system and its overall potential has yet to be determined. The largest vein structure, Vein A, occurs along a strike length of 1 km and roughly follows a creek valley (“Quebrada Corcovado”).
