Chief, you were interested in "faults" earlier.
I believe you will find in the report two things:
1)"Altos de Lilpangue Breccia Zone represents such a late stage explosive intrusive event which was intruded along the volcanic-granodiorite contact which would have been a zone of relative weakness. The explosive event, consisting of both gaseous and hydrothermal fluids vented to surface carrying brecciated fragments of both volcanics and granodiorite upt the diatreme pipe to surface.The hydrothermal fluids and gases altered the breccia fragments, the alteration extended out into the country rock depositing sulphides and metals." Sounds the "contact" is the weakness you were looking for-a contact can act just like fault or be a fault for that matter.
2)A fault appears to lie directly undernealth the stream that flows through the Las Dos Marias. Looks like vertical motion along the fault may have sunk or risen blocks of mineralized deposits.
