Los Cerros Limited announced the results of recent groundwork at the Dosquebradas gold/copper porphyry which is part of the 100% owned Quinchia Project, in Risaralda ­ Colombia. The Quinchia Project is a cluster of porphyry and epithermal gold/copper targets within a 3km radius, underpinned by established Mineral Resources of 2.6Moz @ 1g/t Au3. A line of investigation that forms part of the current Quinchia Project detailed exploration review is focussed on structural controls and grade distribution of the Dosquebradas porphyry style mineralisation (459koz @ 0.71g/t Au Inferred Resource2) and the location of the, yet to be discovered, causative porphyry.

The investigation prompted 200+m of soil channel sampling across an area of sparse drilling approximately 200m above historical drill holes which in QDQDH022 intersected 199.9m @ 0.98g/t Au from 122.1m. Channel sampling results include ­ 146.6m @ 1.82g/t Au including 34m @ 4.22g/t Au40m @ 2.16g/t Au. Channel samples consist of deeply weathered saprolite of a diorite and intrusive breccia in contact with basaltic rocks, with porphyry type veining.

Whilst supergene enrichment might be contributing to the high surface grades, samples from deeper auger sampling (3+m deep) included grades of 9.28g/t Au, 5.68g/t Au, 5.63g/t Au and 5.08g/t Au. Higher grade channel and auger samples occur beyond the historical 0.5g/t gold envelop defining the Dosquebradas Resource and suggest potential extensions, to surface, of the current high grade resource envelopes. This new target area will be integrated into the ongoing Quinchia Project geological review which is targeting high grade resources proximal to those resources included in the ongoing Preliminary Economic Assessment investigations.
