Zoro Mining Corp. Announces a 16-hole Drill Program and Continuation of Underground Exploration at the Yura Gold Project, Arequipa District, Peru [About the Yura Gold Project
The goal at Yura is to define a disseminated gold occurrence amenable to open pit, heap leach extraction. The Yura property consists of a large, circular granodiorite intrusive mass measuring more than 100 square kilometres, which can easily be seen in satellite photographs. Zoro controls more than 8,000 hectares of titled exploitation mining property, approximately 80% of the intrusive.
Mineralization at Yura is hosted by a shattered granitic body containing more than two dozen gold-mineralized shears, varying in width from a few meters to more than 100 meters, commonly with traceable surface strikes of several hundred meters to a kilometre and more, as evidenced by extensive artisanal pits and workings, and most recently by exploration road cuts, trenching, and sampling activities. Gold mineralization is found vertically from 2,200 meters above sea level at the Fortuna
