He has 2 million ounces of pure gold: El Zorro, the millionaire project on the coast of Atacama

The mining project 'El Zorro,' located in the coastal mountain range of the Atacama region in Chile, has been highlighted by the Australian company Tesoro Gold Limited. The project includes a gold deposit named Ternera containing approximately 2.03 million ounces of pure gold. This initiative stands out due to its relatively low altitude of 600 meters, which facilitates logistics compared to other projects at higher elevations. It is also close to ports like Caldera and Chañaral, reducing transportation costs. Additionally, the project benefits from proximity to a desalination plant and plans for a dry tailings storage system to manage water scarcity and seismic risks. The company expects to finalize feasibility studies by year-end and aims to begin production by 2029, with preliminary investment estimates reaching $248 million.
