Michael Fox of the prospector News is joined by Guy Goulet the President and CEO of Cerro de Pasco Resources (CSE:CDPR) (OTC Pink:GPPRF). We discuss the history of the Cerro de Pasco region as the premier mining district in Peru for over 400 years then move to the history of the actual Cerro de Pasco Mine. Operations that mined more quickly than they processed the ore has led to opportunity for vast amounts of leftover ore in the massive above ground tailings on site.

On May 28th the company was granted its long-awaited access permit for its site. (Press Release Here) This was the starting gun that the company was waiting for. They will now move very quickly to prove a NI43101 resource in the tailings (Drills turning in the next few weeks) followed up by a new PEA and Feasibility Study. Drilling is to determine not only the amount of silver that was left behind, but the presence and amounts of several Rare Earth Critical Minerals also shunted off in the past as waste.

Production on the tailings is anticipated to begin in 2026
