Geology and Mineralization:

All of the available properties are located in the prolific Deseado Massif (”DM”), a large, uplifted block of Middle to Late Jurassic-aged felsic volcanic rocks. The DM, one of two massifs in southern Argentina, is over 60,000 km2 in size and hosts many precious and base metal deposits and mines – the majority of which are hosted in the well-known Chon Aike Formation and are of low to intermediate sulfidation character.  Notable mineral occurrences in the DM are Cerro Negro, (Newmont), Cerro Vanguardia (AngloGold), Cerro Moro (Pan American Silver), Manantial Espejo (closed, Pan American Silver) and the Company’s Martha, Cap Oeste, La Josefina and La Manchuria properties. La Manchuria, though not La Manchuria Sur, is currently under option to Astra Exploration Inc. (https://patagoniagold.com/investors/news-releases/, 09-Jul-2024).

Exploration Work Completed:

All of the properties listed have had a variety of exploration work completed on them including nearly 182,000 meters of various types of drilling (core, RC, percussion, Rotary Air Blast ).  Other work completed includes geologic mapping, geochemical sampling, and ground geophysics (IP/Res).  Table 2 shows some of the most significant work completed on the properties by the Company. Due to their location in the prospective DM and the relatively small amount of exploration work, the Company believes the Properties have potential for new discoveries.
