Sunstone Metals
Sunstone Metals is a mineral exploration company focused on the discovery and development of gold and copper assets in Ecuador. The company holds interest in two flagship exploration properties: the Bramaderos Gold-Copper Project in southern Ecuador and the El Palmar Gold-Copper Project in northern Ecuador. Bramaderos hosts porphyry deposits including Brama-Alba-Melonal alongside epithermal gold-silver targets at Limon. El Palmar targets major gold-copper porphyry mineralisation with nearby exploration ground at Verde Chico. Sunstone focuses on resource growth and evaluating multi-decade gold-copper development opportunities through systematic exploration programs.
Snapshot
Operations
Products and/or services of Sunstone Metals
- Gold-Copper Porphyry Exploration: Large-scale porphyry exploration assets in southern Ecuador featuring gold and copper mineralisation across multiple porphyry bodies, supported by initial mineral resource estimates and ongoing diamond drilling to define deep intrusive complexes.
- Epithermal Gold-Silver Exploration: High-grade epithermal gold and silver exploration targets in southern Ecuador focused on shallow structural veins and breccia zones to establish near-surface gold equivalent resources complementary to underlying porphyry systems.
- Northern Ecuador Gold-Copper Assets: Porphyry gold-copper prospective concessions located in northern Ecuador, targeting major mineralised intrusion systems within established gold-copper belts through surface mapping, geophysical surveys, and diamond core drilling.
- Regional Concession Expansion: Extended exploration landholdings adjacent to northern prospective areas in Ecuador, secured to evaluate prospective structural trends and potential extensions of gold-copper porphyry style mineralisation.
- Deep Porphyry Target Evaluation: Sub-surface drill testing of high-priority magnetic and geophysical anomalies situated beneath shallow epithermal prospects in southern Ecuador, aiming to discover deeper feeder porphyry gold-copper mineralisation.
- Geological Survey and Technical Studies: Comprehensive mineral exploration programs comprising soil sampling, trenching, airborne geophysics, 3D structural modelling, core drilling, and preliminary metallurgical recovery assessments across mineral tenures in Ecuador.
