Greetings to all...
A postulation, if you will...
Theorized around the premise that the TG et al deposits were submarine in origin...
The TG-1 deposit is a pool formed from a causation from the south in the TG-3 area which flowed northwards to a delta formed around the point where the tributary flowing southwards along the east side of the town of Tambo Grande empties into the western bend of the north flowing Rio Piura ...This would have been a collection point for flows from the south...
Therefore, TG-1 was, and still remains "attached" to TG-3...
The direction taken by the Rio Piura from the TG-7 deposits and TG-3 is not great, as the crow flies...The lay of the land (flow of the Rio Piura) suggests to me that TG-7 consists of a series of small pools resulting from the "upwards" flow from TG-3...As such, I take TG-3 and TG-7 to also remain attached...I also feel that TG-7 ore values are, at the very least, equal to those of TG-1...
The Oxide Cap...
Utilizing the same rational, I feel the Oxide Cap is likewise a pool which has formed over the sulfide deposit at the area of the same delta, but which had it's causation somewheres to the north of the town of Tambo Grande...The southward flowing tributary would indicate that an associated ancient channel guided the flow associated with the Oxide Cap pool somewhere from the north of the delta....As the Oxide Cap remains open to the north, I assume that the causation of that Oxide Cap Pool, which has yet to be determined, could very well result in the discovery of additional and very significant Au. and Ag deposits...We are informed the Oxide Cap appears to be widening to the north....As the gold concentration increases with depth in the Oxide Cap, we may also perhaps consider that this scenario will continue along the flow as it is traced northwards and perhaps deepens towards its causation...
Could be a God-Damn Bonanza, but who knows..!!
Just thought I'd pass this stuff along to y'all...
Have a great long-weekend...
