About Sierra Resource Group, Inc.
Sierra Resource Group, Inc. is a U.S. based junior exploration and mining company. Sierra Resource Group Inc. owns 80% interest in the Chloride Copper Mine in Arizona, which consists of 37 unpatented lode-mining claims and 12 mill-site claims. It is located 24km northwest of Kingman, in the Wallapai District, Mohave County, Arizona. The open pit mine, and the existing SXEW processing plant operated at the site from 1995 before being idled in 1996 due to low copper prices.
The Chloride Copper Mine deposit is hosted by Late Tertiary conglomerates and, to a lesser extent, by Quaternary alluvium and Cretaceous granitic rocks. Copper mineralization at Chloride Copper Mine is in the form of mineralized lenses contained within a paleochannel approximately a few thousand feet long and up to 750 feet wide. The source of copper at Chloride Copper Mine is interpreted to be the low grade porphyry-type copper mineralization at Alum Wash, about 3.5 miles northeast of the Chloride Copper Mine deposit. The mineralization is characterized by dark blue to black rock similar to the Exotica deposit, a satellite of the huge Chuquicamata copper deposit in Chile.
The NI43-101 Report estimates that Chloride Copper Mine contains an indicated resource of 2.22 million tons grading 0.625% TCu (total copper) at a cut-off grade of 0.03% TCu and 10 ft. minimum vertical thickness (27.5 million pounds of copper).
