The Machacala Project is a hard rock property located in the District of Carabamba, province of Julcan, La Libertad region to the North of Peru, at an elevation of 3,300 meters above sea level. The property contains 966 hectares comprised of 18 contiguous concessions. It is approximately 110 miles southeast of the city of Trujillo, capital of the region, and 574 Km of Lima, capital of Peru.


The La Libertad is one of the largest Gold and Silver producing regions in Perú and in the World, including mines such as Yanacocha which is producing millions of Gold ounces annually; 42 kilometers east of the coastal city of Trujillo in northern Peru.
