Pepper Project

Description: The Project consists of the execution of 42 drilling platforms of approximately 20 x 20 meters each, occupying an area of 1.9 ha, in the commune of San Esteban, Province of Los Andes, Region of Valparaíso, distributed in two valleys of high mountain range called Quebrada Pimentón and Valle Hondo, in the surroundings of the Pimentón mining site, a small mining operation that has been operating since the beginning of the 1990s. The Project considers carrying out the drilling during 3 consecutive campaigns in the months without the presence of snow, that is, spring, summer and early fall of each year. The drilling method will be diamond type, and will require the conditioning of existing roads in order to provide them with safe traffic conditions, the enabling of drilling platforms, as well as the enabling of new penetration paths to reach two platforms without current access. . None of these activities will require the use of explosives or blasting. The objective of the Project is to carry out a drilling program for 3 campaigns or years, with the purpose of discovering the existence of mineral resources that could support the future development of a new project for copper mining, different from the existing Pimentón mining site. .
