Exploration Areas: El Salvador Within the two licences contained within the Pescadito Project in El Salvador, The Group has reported Inferred Mineral Resources, as defined by the JORC standard, of some 354,500 ounces of gold and 18.3 million ounces of silver within two contiguous licences. At the La Calera Project, the third 100 per cent. owned licence, previous drill testing has outlined mineralized structures in the Rosa and Rosa West Prospects with excellent potential for shallow, potentially open pittable gold Mineral Resources as well as subsequent high grade underground Mineral Resources. The fourth licence area, the El Potosi Project, where Condor is earning a 100 per cent. interest, contains the historical El Potosi Mine which produced an estimated 60,000 ounces of gold at between 18 and 30g/t prior to 1950. The Group has completed a first phase drilling programme of Reverse Circulation ('R.C.') and diamond drilling to test these structures. Ravensgate has reported that the extent of the historical mining at El Potosi, combined with the number of mineralised vein systems within the concession (e.g., El Capulin) and recent encouraging results from the first phase drilling programme, suggest that the area is highly prospective for gold mineralisation. Nicaragua An option and farm in Agreement within Nicaragua over five licences and one licence which is under application contained within three project areas, affords the Group exposure to a number of projects, many of which have historical mines and workings. At the Segovia Project area, Condor has concentrated on the high grade structures containing the historical San Albino Mine, and through recent surface sampling has recovered grades of between 3 and 72 g/t Au. Condor's field work to date has confirmed several high grade quartz veins within the district, some of which contain visible gold.
