Xiana Mining Inc. announced an exploration success at the San Andres production development tunnel at Minera Altos de Punitaqui. The 4.5-metre by 4.5-metre development tunnel at San Andres project intersected well mineralised copper sulphide mineralisation after 324 metres of ramp development. Continuation of this ramp to the south and to depth will generate sulphide feed material that can be directly dispatched to central 3,600-tonne-per-day milling complex situated 25 km to the south. The San Andres body is recognised as the upper section of the Cinabrio mine that is currently in active production. The top of the Cinabrio body was offset 600 metres to the west by a low angle fault. A 10,000-metre drill program will commence in October 2019 from surface platforms on the extensions of the deposit to the south of the ramp development at San Andres. This is in conjunction with the resource drilling that has already commenced at Cinabrio earlier this year in relation to the legacy blocks.
