Abstract
With the first stage of exploration and mining study Geological Guanajuato - Mexico Project, the present results of this investigation allowed to suggest four drilling targets, using the modified Buchanan (1981) geological model and applying methodologies such as Folios System and ARGIS program, the achieve pointed out cross-secctions or geological sections, identifying five drilling targets at Vetas Norte, one at La Brecha, one at La Presa Vieja and one at La Mina de Mercurio area, the first stage consists of 3250 drilling meters a long the way of the four targets in order to verify the real potencial of the potential project.
