Sara Alicia
The Sara Alicia Project is located 80km northeast from Alamos, Sonora and comprises two mineral concessions covering 49 hectares 100%-owned by Bendito. The property is situated within a district very well known for IOCG deposit types with multiple occurrences of iron ore, copper-gold mineralization (Piedras Verdes copper mine – Grupo Frisco), and also cobalt-gold skarn zones (Figure 1).
Geologically, the Sara Alicia prospect hosts a sequence of carbonate rocks which have been intruded by a porphyry. Strong alteration and mineralizing reactions in the limestones have formed a skarn horizon (or manto) enriched with garnet, magnetite and sulfides and containing the high-grade gold and cobalt mineralization (Figure 2).
Historically 19 diamond core holes have been drilled into the Sara Alicia project for 1,607m by a previous operator (Figure 3). Drilling intersected significant widths of high-grade gold and cobalt mineralization assaying up to 60g/t Au (Table 1) and up to 6% Co (Table 2).
