Huanacaxtle is an easterly trending structural zone hosted in orthopyroxene-phyric lamprophyre (Fonseca, 2006) that has likely been offset by the Ebanos ductile shear zone. Collectively, samples B092329, B092329, 15578, 15603, 15606, 15892 define the zone over a strikelength of about 400 meters. Average results of these samples are 28 g/t Ag and 6.16 g/t Au across 1.4 m. Where preserved, mineralization consists of semi-massive specularite with quartz and oxidized copper minerals, but for the most part metallic mineralization has been weathered out. South of Huanacaxtle, a grab sample of magnetite float returned values of 7.1 g/t Ag, 1.8 g/t Au, >23% Fe, and anomalous concentrations of Mo, Pb, Zn, As, U, Sb, Bi, V and W (sample 208221).
