Altiplano earns half of Comet JV; starts bulk sample

Exploration junior Altiplano Minerals has earned a 50% stake in the Comet Joint Venture (CJV) with Comet Exploration, which is conducting exploration on the Farellon and Maria Luisa copper/gold development projects, in Chile. Headed by John Williamson, co-founder of Kaminak Gold, which discovered the Coffee gold project, in Canada’s Yukon Territory, and which was later sold to Goldcorp for $520-million, the explorer has funded $2-million in exploration expenses during 2017 to earn the milestone.
