14 www.resourceworld.com F E B R U A R Y / M A R C H 2 0 1 8 Cambior Inc. AUPLATA is carrying out a small scale alluvial gold mining operation using contractors on the poject area. Reunion also holds the right to earn a 100% interest in the CMB properties in Guiana, consisting of 78.2 km 2 of mineral concessions and a 24 km 2 exploration per- mit located approximately 40 km south of Cayenne. The CMB properties are easily accessible by National Road No.2 and a network of gravel roads. This greenstone belt extends westwards and hosts most of the known gold mineralization and operat- ing mines in French Guiana and Surinam. The BRGM (French geological survey) and previous property titleholders con- ducted extensive geological mapping, soil geochemistry, trenching and diamond drilling, confirming the presence of several gold occurrences related to shear zones and hydrothermal alteration. The mining concessions host small-scale alluvial gold mining operations that have produced around 200,000 ounces of gold between 1994 and 2016. Reunion also holds the Aremu property in Guyana which is the subject of a review of available geological and artisanal gold mining information to understand poten- tial primary sources of gold mineralization. Cornerstone Capital Resources Inc. [CGP-TSXV; CTNXF-OTC; GWN-Berlin, FSE] has mineral projects in Ecuador and Chile, with the former seeing active exploration in the latter half of 2017. The company has been exploring a portfolio of projects in Ecuador since 2005, target- ing epithermal gold-silver and porphyry copper-gold deposits. No less than 15 highâpriority porphyry centres have been recognized within the Cascabel copper gold project in north- ern Ecuador where drill results from Hole 12 included 1,312 metres grading 0.67% copper, and 0.63 g/t gold. More recently, Cornerstone announced results of a trenching program over an outcrop- ping porphyry gold-copper system at its Bramaderos concession in southern Ecuador that included 51.1 metres of 0.81 g/t gold and 0.18% copper. The trench- ing program has since been expanded to include other prospective zones. Cornerstone's Chilean mineral assets are located in the historic mining regions of Atacama and Antofagasta in north- ern Chile where the company is targeting epithermal gold-silver and porphyry gold- copper deposits along the interpreted northern extension of the Maricunga mag- matic belt which hosts several world-class gold deposits. British Columbia's new NDP gov- ernment recently declined to issue an environmental permit for KGHM International Ltd.'s [KGH-WSE] past- producing Ajax copper-gold mine project near Kamloops, BC following almost seven years of consultation and assessment. KGHM has an 80% interest with Abacus Mining & Exploration Corp. [AME- TSXV] holding a 20% interest.
