(\"\n \n San Lorenzo\n \n \" or the \"\n \n Company\n \n \") (TSXV: SLG) is\npleased to announce that targeting, drill road access and pad\nconstruction haven been competed for the maiden drill program\n \n on its Cerro Blanco target at Salvadora.\n \n\n\n\n About Cerro Blanco\n \n\n\n Cerro Blanco is one of 5 target areas located within San Lorenzo’s\nSalvadora property.  It is highlighted   by a strong leached cap and\nalteration zone exposed in the approximately 250 meters high valley\nwall formed by river erosion on the northern edge of the target zone.\n  This alteration zone is exposed over a strike length exceeding 2.5\nkilometers south of the valley wall.  In Chile, the type of surface\nalteration seen at Cerro Blanco is a common feature within and above\nsimilar mineralized intrusions as evidenced locally by the porphyry\ncopper/gold deposits associated with the El Salvador mine 15 km to the\nNE.  A view of the feature can be seen in Figure 1 below.\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n Click Image To View Full Size\n \n\n\n\n Figure 1\n \n\n :\n \n\n View of the\nCerro Blanco feature looking South across the river valley\nfloor\n \n\n .\n \n\n\n The Cerro Blanco feature has long been a priority target - not yet\ndrilled because of a lack of access – with access having recently\nbeen completed.\n \n\n San Lorenzo’s recent efforts included completion of additional\nsurface rock and soil sampling on Cerro Blanco.  A strong 2.5 km sq\nsoil copper anomaly was identified - which is open to the NW, NE and\nSW.  Numerous soil samples graded from 0.05 – 0.1% copper and\nnumerous rock samples graded 0.1 – 1.55% copper and 0.02 – 0.33\ng/t gold (Figure 2).  An IP survey detected a moderate to strong\nchargeability anomaly underlying the core of the surface soil and rock\ncopper/gold anomaly which is also open on strike and at depth. During\nconstruction, altered mineralized rock was exposed in the road cuts\nconfirming the local nature of the surface alteration.  Figure 2\nbelow provides locations of the results discussed above and indic...
