Marble Mine

LOCALIZATION AND ACCESS

Located in the southwestern portion of the state of Michoacán. It borders with the state of Jalisco, 300 km in a straight line from the city of Morelia, Michoacán. The geographical coordinates of the land in the lower part of the Risco Hill are: 18° 45' N and 103°15´ 07'' W.

INFRASTRUCTURE

Roads: Routes of communication are in regular conditions towards the distribution centers. Electrical current: The nearest electrical streamline is located to 800m in a straight line S55°W from the marble deposit.
Water: The water for mining works can be obtained from the Cebollas stream, which usually has water year round. Manual labor: The closest Manual Labor center for mining works is in the district La Minita, Michoacán, located 15 km north of the estate.

TOTAL RESERVE

Reserve Potential: The Geologic Consultant's study contemplates the estimation reserve potential, sustained by the geological work made in the field, the taking of samples, the chemical and physical analysis of the representative samples of the deposit.

The Reserve total is the following:
Potential Reserve of marble: 4´899,760 m3
Potential Reserve of Calcium Carbonate: 3´513,160 m3

CONCLUSIONS

The study of the Geologic Consultant's Office made to the estates Fresnos, Alazanas and Pantanos, determines the geologic and economic importance of the marble reserves and dimensions the proportions of the calcium carbonate production for the production of lime and cement.
