Miranda Gold Corp. announced it has signed Letters of Intent on two important district-scale epithermal vein systems. The Colombian project titles are Mallama and San Lucas in the Nariño and South Bolivar departments, respectively. Both acquisitions are the result of reconnaissance and evaluations during the last resource market down-cycle. Miranda has maintained its presence in Colombia, while waiting for quality projects to become available and for security risks in certain areas to become more manageable - as a result of the armistice that was signed between the Colombian government and opposition groups. The Mallama project is part of a large district that contains more than thirty mapped intermediate sulfidation epithermal veins with strike lengths of over 4km. The Japanese International Cooperation Agency (JICA) mapped, sampled, and drilled a portion of the larger vein system - of which the Mallama project covers a part - in 1983. The El Diamante Mine is just north of Miranda's Mallama project, and has been active for 30 years or more - with its interesting gold metallurgy studied and published by the joint efforts of Colombian and European scientists - the gold at El Diamante, in particular, is associated with pyrite and quartz and secondarily with arsenopyrite, sphalerite and galena. Historic sampling presented by the owners of the titles on the Mallama project shows vein grades from 33 g Au/t to 87 g Au/t with silver occurring on an average ratio of 10:1 silver to gold. Limited confirmation sampling assays by Miranda geologists shows 42 g Au/t over 0.5m in an active artisan mine that displays numerous parallel veins. Mallama consists of government granted titles. The San Lucas project is part of a large district that contains numerous high-grade veins extending for several kilometers. San Lucas is particularly interesting in that it displays banded quartz- carbonate veins with high tellurium. This is the same vein characteristic that is seen in Buritica (reported reserves of 3.7m ounces gold at 8.5 g Au/t- and 10.7m ounces of silver at 24.3 g Ag/t), which is being advanced to production by Continental Gold Inc. The analog for San Lucas is mesozonal to epithermal carbonate base metal (CBM) gold systems. Miranda's acquisition of San Lucas is a direct result of the recognition of this rare analog model in Colombia. San Lucas is a core property internal to Mineros S.A.'s Guamoco Project to the north, and a large land position to the south maintained by Anglo Ashanti. Miranda considers San Lucas the core of the district. San Lucas has reported gold values of between 12.5 g Au/t and 105 g Au/t over 3m. San Lucas consists of government granted titles.
