A Silver Opportunity Primed For Its Debut
Alcon has a historical inferred resource totalling 4.6 million tonnes grading 90.88g/t Ag, 1.66% Pb and 1.69% Zn) and a portfolio of Silver exploration projects recently optioned from Pan American Silver.
1. Alcon Silver Corp. is not treating this historical resource estimate as a current mineral estimate. See Disclaimer.

Well Endowed Mining Jurisdiction
Peru is one of the top 10 mining jurisdictions in the world
Alcon recognizes this resource estimate as a historical resource and is not treating it as a current mineral resource. This historical resource estimate was stated as an Inferred Mineral Resource in a fully compliant NI 43-101 technical report filed on SEDAR on 29-July 2011 by Caracara Silver Inc. (Vachon, 2011). Verification of this historical resource would require additional drilling to confirm historical intersections. The historical estimate was based on 24 out of 64 available diamond drill holes (DDH) when the 2011 technical report was prepared. Data from fifteen (15) DDHs drilled in 2013 not included in the 2011 resource calculation are now available in Caracara’s historical drilling database. Key parameters in the historical resource calculation: minimum true thickness = 1.2m; dip of structure = 60o; specific gravity = 2.75g/cc; radius of influence = half distance to nearest neighbor; high-grade samples not cut.
The Caracara 2011 historical resource estimate cannot be relied on due to the destruction of historical drill core, loss of corresponding sampled material (pulps and rejects) and lack of sufficient work by a Qualified Person to assess the validity of the historical estimate. The historical estimate may be validated by completing a series of replicate holes in a future drill program on the property.
