Drilling is about to begin at the Bahuerachi property in Mexico, one of three copper oxide projects held in that country by 50-50 partners Golden Rule Resources (GNU-T) and Tyler Resources (TYS-T).
Bahuerachi is a 3,600-hectare claim on the Reforma mineralized trend in southwestern Chihuahua state, in an area worked by the Spaniards more than 200 years ago.
In the early 1990s, the Guggenheim Company worked underground on the Main zone skarn and reported surface oxide grades of 3% copper, with sulphides at some depth grading 2% copper, 142 grams silver and 3 grams gold per tonne.
Asarco drilled some widely spaced holes in the 1970s, with the best hole returning 39 metres grading 1.2% copper in skarn, and a Canadian company did some sampling in the 1980s.
Tyler has channel-sampled all the drill access roads on the Main zone.
Results from 134 samples, representing 486 metres, averaged 1.33% copper.
Tyler plans to drill the Main zone skarn once permits are in place.
