El Korincho – “On The Discovery Trend�
(El Korincho is located on a 200 km long, approximately east-west trending, regional geologic/metallogenic trend, a lineament characterized by several highly productive historic and active gold/silver/base metal mining districts. Districts are spaced approximately 50 KM apart along this lineament.
Goldcorp’s Peñasquito, and the historic mining area of Concepcion del Oro, are on trend to the east of Korincho.
The Camacho district is on trend to the west of Korincho. Further west on trend are the Cerro Prieto Minillas, San Jose de Reyes, and Miguel Auza districts. Santa Fe Metals is currently developing a sizeable gold/silver resource at San Jose de Reyes.
Districts along trend show similar geologic, mineralogic, and geophysical features. Such features, also characteristic of significant precious metal mines in northern Mexico and the western United States, include styles of mineralization, alteration types, breccias, aeromagnetic expression, felsic intrusives, and calcareous rocks of the Mexican Geosyncline.

Concepcion del oro
Korincho covers most of an approximately north-south trending antiformal uplift, 12-15 kilometers long and 9-10 kilometers wide.
The antiform is cored by a felsic and multiphase intrusive whose major expression is the prominent peak, Pico de Teyra.
A narrow apophysis of granitic rocks is intermittently exposed, for approximately 10 km, between Pico de Teyra and San Raphael to the east. This is clearly seen on aeromagnetics and geology maps
Phyllitic Jurassic metasediments and metavolcanics in the center of the antiform are cut by many approximately east-west and north-south trending fractures. Jurassic/Cretaceous limestones of the Mexican Geosyncline overlie the phyllitic rocks and crop out mostly on the east flank of the anitform.
Most of the 25 small historic gold/silver mines and dozens of prospects within Korincho’s claims are located on fracture zones.
