Patriot Resources finds silver and base metals near Tassa in Peru
What happened
Patriot Resources found a suite of metals, including silver, lead, zinc, copper, and molybdenum, in maiden surface sampling near its Tassa resource in southern Peru. The sampling identified a mineralized opaline silica breccia, with samples returning results such as 27.7 grams per tonne of silver and 3000 parts per million of lead. The company stated these results confirm localized silver and base metal anomalism beyond the limits of the current Tassa mineral resource.

Why it matters
