Pampa Metals Provides Exploration Update and Vision for 2021
(firmenpresse) - Vancouver - January 12, 2021 - Pampa Metals Corp. (Pampa Metals or the Company) (CSE: PM) (FSE: FIRA) is pleased to provide an update on its exploration activities in Chile.
As indicated in our corporate news release of December 23rd, 2020, SouthernRock Geophysics has re-initiated geophysical surveying at the Companys Arrieros project in northern Chile after a short break for the Christmas and New Year period. Pampa Metals is acquiring Resistivity and 3D Vector Induced Polarization (VIP), together with Magneto-Telluric (MT) and ground magnetic measurements over the 14,000-hectare property, which is characterised by extensive post-mineral gravel cover (a pampa in Chile) and is located along the preeminent Eocene-Oligocene porphyry copper belt of northern Chile. Geophysical surveying work at Arrieros is expected to be concluded in early February. Additionally, the Company has deployed an experienced geologist to complete geological prospecting and mapping across the project area, particularly around the outcropping margins of the extensive pampa.
Following work at Arrieros, both the geophysical and geological teams will start exploration activities at the Companys Redondo-Veronica project, a 5,000-hectare property also located along the highly prospective Eocene-Oligocene porphyry copper belt of northern Chile.
Julian Bavin, Pampa Metals CEO, commented: Pampa Metals started work at Arrieros immediately after listing in December of last year, and continues now in the new year with comprehensive plans for exploration activities across its project portfolio over the coming months. Commodity prices have improved considerably over the last six months with copper and gold, Pampa Metals principal commodities focus, amongst the leading commodities in terms of price increases. The demand for copper is driven by industrial activities, construction and the Electric Vehicle (EV) market, and a forecast supply / demand gap over the next few years highlights the need for new discoveries. Gold prices are driven by a variety of factors, but current general global uncertainties are supporting strong precious metals prices.
Pampa Metals 58,000 hectares portfolio is large (see Figure 1) and is centred on one of the most productive segments of the Central Andean metallogenic province, which accounts for a significant percentage of the worlds copper production as well as significant precious metals production. The Companys management and board believes that systematic exploration, focused on geology and the latest exploration technologies, can yield significant results from the exploration portfolio, and we look forward to pursuing our objective of making a discovery during the course of 2021.
During 2020, the Company has successfully achieved the following objectives:
- Identified, negotiated and captured a high-quality portfolio of eight (8) projects (58,000 hectares) in one of the best mining jurisdictions on earth, in Northern Chile.
- Built a highly experienced and capable Board and a Management Team that has worked extensively in Chile and South America in general, with a vision to execute and accomplish our mission.
- Developed an operating plan that has prioritized targets within the project portfolio with a view to delivering value, effectively and efficiently.
- Received the necessary regulatory approvals and concluded a successful listing of the new entity on the Canadian Securities Exchange (CSE), as well as on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange (FSE).
- Completed an equity financing for gross proceeds of $4,024,500.
- Immediate implementation of the work program at the Arrieros project, to be followed during Q1 2021 by the Redondo-Veronica projects.
