TSX-V: IDI OCAÑA SX/EW PROJECT - HIGHLIGHTS
26
Mineralogy of the oxide species consists of chrysocolla, chalcanthite and brochantite with minor azurite.
Sooty chalcocite makes up about 50% of the supergene material.
Large areas are available for leach pads adjacent to the proposed mining area.
Additional mineralized material is known to exist on the neighbouring Trafigura Property
Mining of the oxide-supergene mineralization would leave the sulphide body with low 1:1 strip ratio making mining very low-cost.
TSX-V: IDI SUPERGENE ORE: SOLUBLE COPPER FOR SX/EW
27
Solvent extraction and electrowinning (SX/EW) is a two-stage metallurgy process that first extracts and upgrades copper ions from low-grade acidic leach solutions into a solvent containing a chemical that selectively reacts with and solubilizes the copper in the solvent. The copper is extracted from the solvent with strong aqueous acid which then deposits pure copper onto cathodes using an electrolytic procedure (electrowinning).
Soluble Copper Exploration Target*: Current geological concept is 20-40
million tonnes of supergene mineralization
Grade is 0.4 – 0.6% Cu Preliminary lab tests indicate 75 - 85%
recovery Main minerals are copper oxides,
sulphates, and secondary sulphide (chalcocite)
*Note: These quantity and grade ranges are conceptual in nature, as there has been insufficient exploration to define a mineral resource. It is uncertain if further exploration will result in the target being delineated as a mineral resource. This exploration target is based on the drill results as illustrated in the maps and sections within the presentation, and also available in more detailed versions on our website.
TSX-V: IDI OCAÑA PHASE 3 OBJECTIVES
28
Phase 3: Drill the SX/EW project Convert the current conceptual geological target* of a 20-40Mt SX/EW project with
grades between 0.4% Cu and 0.6% Cu to an initial resource estimate Metallurgical testing should repeat sequential leach average recoveries of 75 - 85% Cu Baseline environmental studies Prepare PEA on the basis of the initial resource estimate and other data, leading to fast
tracking and permitting of SX/EW project by Q1 2015.
Phase 3: Drill the Sulphide extensions Intersected highest-grade breccia-hosted hypogene mineralization in Phase 2, still
open to east which will be further defined in Phase 3 drilling by an additional four holes.
Sulphide mineralization continues to the north onto the Trafigura property. Trafigura recognize and commented in our meetings that the Indico and Trafigura
properties will have to be unitized or consolidated going forward.
*Note: These quantity and grade ranges are conceptual in nature, as there has been insufficient exploration to define a mineral resource. It is uncertain if further exploration will result in the target being delineated as a mineral resource. This exploration target is based on the drill results as illustrated in the maps and sections within the presentation, and also available in more detailed versions on our website.

TSX-V: IDI MARIA REYNA HIGHLIGHTS
32
Four mineralized Cu-Mo ± Au porphyry-skarn systems of which only one, the SW Anomaly, was partially tested with wide-spaced drilling by Vale in 2010.
Vale drilling successfully defined a porphyry-skarn footprint which could potentially be additional mine feed for the Constancia milling complex under construction by Hudbay Minerals: “We want … to be able to get other satellite deposits that can feed the plant we are currently building”.*
Higher-grade skarn near surface not fully defined, but obvious focus for next phase of drilling.
The NE Anomaly appears to be a large porphyry system with peripheral skarn which is the subject of informal mining.
The North Skarn anomaly was trenched by Phelps Dodge in the 90´s and is a large copper-gold mineralised skarn field with suspected underlying porphyry copper±gold mineralization.
Panoro’s Kusiorcco Anomaly of extends onto the southeast corner of the property and surface geology strongly suggests a porphyry centre.
