![]() Zinco Mining Corporation ("Zinco" or "the Company") is exploring it's 100% owned 53,051 hectare Volcanogenic Massive Sulfide Project in Jalisco, Mexico (the "Jalisco VMS Project"). The project area overlaps six known VMS Districts, including some historic metal producers. These are: Cuale, Bramador, Desmoronado, El Rubi, Aranjuez and La Mina. Previous operators of the Project include Industrias Peñoles, the Metal Mining Agency of Japan (MMAJ) and Cominco (now Teck). The project has a history of mining and mineral exploration dating back to 1804. Collectively, there are at least 25,065 meters of historic diamond drilling in 329 holes on the Property, and more than 160 mines and mineral occurrences. Recently, Zinco has been very active in the Cuale VMS District. Highlights for 2011 include: (i) acquisition of the past producing Grandeza and Talpas Mines, as well as several other "Minas de Oro" on Cerro La Descubriadora, the geological heart of the Cuale District, (ii) completion of 1534.28 meters of HQ diamond drilling at San Juan and Jesus Maria, and (iii) surface exploration of San Rafael and adjacent "Minas de Oro" that shows continuity of the same Ore Horizon that hosts Naricero and Jesus Maria on the eastern flank of Cerro La Descubriadora. Senior management comprises an experienced group of mining industry professionals. By acquiring previously producing mines, Zinco plans for growth by operating focused drill programs on its most compelling targets. This allows the company to mitigate risk while exposing shareholders to the upside of discovery.
