El Zanjon Gold Silver Project,

Patagonia, Argentina

The El Zanjon project is located south of the Cerro Vanguardia Mine (3.55 million ounces gold and 89 million ounces silver (AngloGold Resource report, 2017). Cerro Vanguardia is marked by major NW trending veins which change direction in the north to EW trending.

Regional airborne magnetic surveying has shown major NW trending structures at El Zanjon which change direction to the south to more EW trending. Prior academic studies predicted a possible repetition of Cerro Vanguardia to be found as the southern sector of a common major dilation zone.

This was discovered by the team who will now work on the El Zanjon project.

Rugby has an option over the project and may earn a 100% interest over six years. The company has a minimum exploration commitment of CAD$50,000 which will cover more detailed ground magnetic surveys to delineate favorable drill targets. In order to earn 100% of El Zanjon, Rugby will have the option to incur staged exploration expenditures totaling CAD$3.65 million over 6 years including completing studies to Pre-Feasibility standards. Rugby will also cover tenure payments totaling CAD$15,000 annually. The vendors will retain a 2%NSR.

Rugby completed ground magnetic survey at 320 meter line spacing in 2019. This has defined favorable structures and flexures for hosting potential gold silver mineralisation similar to Cerro Moro and Cerro Vanguardia (see image below).

Broad spaced low level geochemical sampling was conducted along the prospective structures and above the gravel cover to look for potential leakage from underlying gold-silver concentrations. A number of prospective geochemical and magnetic targets defined (see image below). These were followed up in 2021 at 160 meter spacing, which generated very prospective low level geochemical anomalies (see map below showing silver geochemistry). These could potentially represent the surface expression for underlying high grade epithermal silver gold deposits.

Follow up detailed geochemical and geophysical programs are currently being assessed to further detail targets after the southern winter.
