Dana Resources Acquires the Property “Las Horquetas“
21 April 2009 - 1:00PM
Business Wire
(OTCBB: DANR) Dana Resources, a US-based precious and base
metals exploration company with advanced stage gold properties in
Peru, is pleased to announce that they have acquired a 100%
interest in the claim known as the Las Horquetas Project, in
Peru.
Las Horquetas is a copper-gold porphyry prospect and is located
in northern Peru. The project covers a 2,223 acre area and lies
approximately 120 kilometers northeast of the city of Piura in the
District of Las Lomas. The property is situated in the same
copper-gold belt as the world famous Tambo Grande deposits (gold,
copper and zinc) to the south west.
The area of Las Horquetas consists of stock works and a
significant alteration zone in a length of 1 km by 0.5 km wide in
granodiorite, surrounded by volcanic rocks.
A systematic exploration program consisting of geological
mapping, prospecting, sampling and drilling was carried out by BHP
Billinton (NYSE: BHP) and SIMSA in 1999 (including BHP�s propietary
Falcon Survey); however, due to the low commodity prices at the
time, further exploration was postponed.
Dana Resources is planning to continue the geophysical study of
the area and will complement the study with additional
drilling.
Dana Resources considers this volcanic belt (Lancones Basin),
formed by the intrusion of ganodiorite to have considerable
potential to be a profitable copper-gold project.
With some of the richest mineral reserves in the world, Peru is
one of the highest producing countries of precious & base
metals in Latin America. Previously inaccessible regions are now
becoming available through modern technology and equipment, making
the high diversity of marketable minerals an extremely attractive
prospect. Peru holds about 16 per cent of the world's known mineral
reserves.
