London Symposium JV Video: Forte Minerals uses deep Andean experience to drill for copper, gold

Forte Minerals (CSE: CUAU; US-OTC: FOMNF) is leveraging its decades of work in the Americas to explore for copper and gold in Peru.

CEO Patrick Elliott says his team has zeroed in on the Southern Peru Copper belt, where every major miner is developing or producing red metal projects.

“That belt alone produces about 40% of Peruvian copper,” Elliott said last month during The Northern Miner’s International Metals Symposium in London. “It’s the address you want to be in. In good metal commodity cycles the entire belt is staked up.”

Benefiting from a newly-streamlined drill permit process in Peru, Forte is preparing its rigs to drill in March at its flagship Alto Ruri gold project, located 15 km south of Barrick Gold’s (TSX: ABX; NYSE: GOLD) Pierina mine.
