Revelo Provides Update on Block 2 Project
VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwired - Aug 31, 2015) - Revelo Resources Corp. ("Revelo" or the "Company") (TSX VENTURE:RVL) informs that BHP Chile Inc. ("BHPB") has elected to return all of the exploration concessions related to the Block 2 copper project located in Northern Chile.
BHPB is no longer exploring any of the concessions forming the Option and Joint Venture Agreement signed in April 2012.
BHPB carried out reconnaissance geological mapping of the Block 2 property at 1:100,000 scale, and then focused in on the Los Morros target area in the southwestern portion of the property, where mapping at 1:20,000 scale was completed. This work defined an area of interest some 6km x 3km in size, characterised by advanced argillic alteration and peripheral base and precious metals veins, and propylitic alteration, hosted within Paleocene-aged volcanic rocks. The main target area of interest, approximately 2km x 1km in size, is partially covered by post-mineral gravels.
Upon return of the all the exploration data, Revelo will review it and analyze it in order to compile new information and update its database for future potential option and joint venture opportunities with new partners.
