Regional Gold Potential
Fortuna is located in Ecuador, South America. The surrounding region has historically demonstrated a very high potential for gold endowment and is very proximal to other gold properties. Physical setting (very high elevation, very high relief, tropical climate) shapes access, seasonality, and operating costs. Geologically, the area is dominated by Basic volcanic 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.
Drill Intercepts
Reported results (Gold) average low grade, very short, and very shallow. The most recent intercepts are benchmarked against a global gold database.
