The Shahuindo deposit comprises a zone of primary sulfide ore and an oxidized zone of supergene origin. Gold reserves in the supergene zone are of 59 t Au at 0.46 g/t, and extraction is currently conducted by heap-leach process. Considering a similar amount of the underlying primary sulfide ore, a total endowment of 100 t Au would be a reasonable estimate.
