Land Package and Geology - Huizopa encompasses a block of mining concession claims of approximately 170 Sq. Km. . While no mining has taken place at Huizopa since small scale operations ceased in 1936, initial favorable geochemical sampling and field studies were completed in 2003 and confirmed by Apollo Gold in 2004. The Huizopa area was mined from the late 1890’s through the 1930’s using small-scale operations. There has been no significant mining activity since then. The geology is characterized by a series of parallel, low sulfidation gold-silver, quartz veins hosted by Tertiary- age volcanic rocks. Silver to gold ratios in the veins and from the material on historic mine dumps indicate the Huizopa area hosts an extensive gold-bearing hydrothermal system. Two major parallel quartz vein systems with north trending structures contain many single vein outcrops 7 to 10 meters thick, suggesting a series of stacked veins. Strike lengths are over 2.0 km on the property with untested down dip potential.

With our land package of 170 sq. km., Huizopa has the potential to represent not just a single project but also a mining district. Apollo Gold believes the Huizopa area has the potential for high-grade ore zones as well as broad vein/stockwork mineralization amenable to open pit mining as well as underground mining. Current exploration work (geological mapping, sampling, and geophysical studies) continues.
