Orosur Mining Inc. updated its exploration progress at the Anzá Project in Colombia, now wholly owned after acquiring its partner. Drilling at the Pepas Prospect has revealed significant gold mineralization, with holes returning notable intersections. The company is extending its geological understanding and assessing further exploration in the region.
Orosur Mining Inc. recently provided an update regarding exploration at its Anzá Project in Colombia, now 100% owned following the acquisition of its previous partner, Minera Monte Aguila. The project, located near Medellin, benefits from excellent infrastructure, including access to roads, power, and water supply. The Pepas Prospect, identified by previous drilling, has shown promising gold mineralization with significant intersections documented in several drill holes.
Drilling activities resumed at Pepas in November 2024, focusing on confirming high-grade results from previous holes and exploring geological trends. Recent drilling (PEP012 to PEP022) has confirmed substantial gold mineralization, bounded by two converging faults. Results from these holes include intersections of up to 107.05 meters at 6.22 g/t Au, highlighting the project’s potential for further exploration and development.
Continuing drilling aimed at understanding mineralization controls led to new discoveries with remarkable intersections. Additional drilling holes PEP019 and PEP020 were directed towards surface structures, leading to mineralized fault zones and important geologic insights. The exploration is ongoing, with extensive geological mapping efforts on surrounding areas to define potential targets for future drilling operations.
Following the acquisition of historical data, the company has identified further anomalies in the northern section of Pepas, indicating resource potential yet to be explored. A recent surface evaluation uncovered significant mineralization, averaging 1.15 g/t Au across a length of 105 meters. The discovery emphasizes the expansive opportunities for gold exploration at both Pepas and the northern area termed Pepas 2.
Orosur’s exploration activities have thus far revealed exceptional results, with plans to proceed with further drilling despite operating within financial constraints. The ongoing efforts aim to systematically define the Pepas mineralization and investigate surrounding anomalous zones to estimate overall resource potential. CEO Brad George noted the encouraging results could significantly accelerate project development if trends persist.
Orosur Mining Inc. focuses on mineral exploration and development in regions such as Colombia, Argentina, and Nigeria. The Anzá Project represents a gold exploration initiative involving multiple licenses and applications. Recently, Orosur completed an acquisition increasing its land portfolio, which positions it advantageously within the Mid-Cauca gold belt, a region known for rich mineralization potential. As the company undertakes drilling activities, it emphasizes the importance of understanding geologic structures and mineralization patterns to guide future exploration efforts.
The latest update from Orosur Mining Inc. confirms substantial progress at the Anzá Project, especially at the Pepas Prospect, where drilling has returned exceptional gold intersections. With continuing efforts in geological mapping and surface evaluation, the company aims to expand exploration in previously untested areas. The encouraging results may lead to rapid advancements in the project as Orosur continues to focus on strategic exploration strategies to maximize resource identification and development.
