Los Venados Exploration
The 3,200 hectare Los Venados claim is easily accessible by an all weather road, approximately 220 kilometres southeast of Hermosillo. The property has been subjected to very little historical work and limited data from previous operators is available. Current Cangold operations include geological mapping and prospecting, detailed sampling and possibly trenching, with diamond drilling to follow. The target at Los Venados is a multimillion ounce high sulphidation epithermal gold deposit amenable to open pit mining and heap leaching.
Cangold can acquire a 100% interest in the Los Venados property by making staged cash payments totalling CDN$250,000 and issuing 500,000 shares over 5 years. The acquisition is subject to a 2% NSR, half of which can be purchased for CDN$500,000. A finders fee is payable upon regulatory acceptance.
Plomo Exploration
The 4,279 hectare Plomo project lies within the Altar desert of northwestern Sonora, approximately 320 kilometres northwest of Hermosillo and 52 kilometres northwest of Caborca by paved highway. The eastern boundary of the Plomo claim is within 4 kilometres of the highway and access around the property is excellent via secondary all weather roads. Extensive strongly micro-fractured and brecciated quartz float and outcrop with hematite and rare copper staining has been traced for approximately 1.6 kilometres with an average width of approximately 200 metres (Bonancita area). Historical dry placer workings have been noted on the property, and recent reconnaissance mapping has identified a brecciated quartz-iron oxide zone (Banco de Oro) related to a low-angle detachment fault that has been mined on a small scale. Cangold has completed detailed grid mapping and sampling of the main Bonancita quartz-hematite zone, allowing the company to quickly bring this zone to the drilling stage.
A 9 hole, 1500m drill program broke ground in early April 2008, testing targets in the Banco de Oro, Pavorreal, San Perfecto, and Bonancita zones
Cangold can acquire a 100% interest in the Plomo property by making staged cash payments totalling CDN$100,000 and issuing 700,000 shares over 5 years, subject to a 2% NSR, half of which can be purchased for CDN$500,000. The Company will also issue to the vendor 500,000 warrants priced at $0.50 and valid for a two-year period from the date of the signing of the agreement. The acquisition is subject to regulatory approval.
