Trevali Resource Corp's primary focus is the formerly producing high-grade silver - lead - zinc Santander mine located in Lima Department, Peru. Production from 1958 to 1991 focused solely on the Santander Pipe, where some 8 million tonnes grading +7% zinc, 1 to 4% lead and 60 g/t silver with additional copper credits were mined during the period.

Due to a combination of hyper-inflation and low metal prices, mining ceased in approximately 11% zinc mineralization at 480-500 metres below surface. Several deep exploration boreholes indicate that mineralization extends an additional 200 metres vertical depth.

Initial exploration work by the Company has confirmed the presence of previously untested high-grade mineralization to the North of the former mine site -- highlighting the very significant exploration potential of the large property package. The project enjoys both an excellent location and quality infrastructure.

In the short term, the Company plans to re-commence production and to create shareholder value via successful mine-site exploration. Medium- to long-term, the Company continues to monitor advanced projects in known productive belts where it can leverage its in-house operational expertise.
