Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - February 11, 2021) - Pan Andean Minerals Ltd. (TSXV: PAD) ("Pan Andean" or the "Company") is pleased to announce it has entered a consulting services agreement (the "Agreement") with JMK Geological Services ("JMK"), a private firm wholly owned by one of the Company's directors.
JMK will act in the capacity as exploration manager for the Company to oversee an integrated exploration program on the three silica (quartzite) properties in the Golden Mining District of British Columbia which are wholly owned by the Company.
The program will consist of geological mapping and sampling, geophysical exploration, induced polarization surveys to check on the continuity of the quartzite beds in areas of thicker cover, and excavator trenching across the resistivity lows indicating the quartzite horizon. The quartzite unit will be systematically analyzed for the purity of the silica.
The Company anticipates beginning the program in late Spring 2021 with a report on the findings from the program to be concluded by the end of the year, at a total cost of approximately $80,000.
In addition to the exploratory work to be done on the properties currently owned by the Company, the Company will also continue to evaluate and stake additional claims "on strike" of the existing claims, as well as stake claims where silica deposits might be found in other areas of the Province.
