Regional Copper Potential

Cerro de Fierro is located in Peru, South America. The surrounding region has historically demonstrated a very high potential for copper endowment and is very proximal to other copper properties. Physical setting (very high elevation, very high relief, dry climate) shapes access, seasonality, and operating costs. Geologically, the area is dominated by Acid plutonic rocks, under moderately thick lithosphere with moderately thick sedimentary cover in a Meso- and Cenozoic Orogen tectonic province—factors that inform both deposit style and development complexity.
