ECR Minerals PLC said Aug. 15 that it restarted work on the Sierra de las Minas gold property in Argentina and identified opportunities for exploration of potentially high-grade gold mineralization after a full review of the project following a visit to the site.

ECR also discovered additional license areas that could complement the existing gold-prospective ground. It stopped development at the Argentine operations earlier in 2018 to conserve cash resources.

The company also found a number of new prospects including a lithium and polymetallic high-impact exploration opportunity.
