Location
- Infrastructure
The Haquira project is located in a remote part of Peru, and if an economic mineral deposit is delineated by additional exploration, improvements to the access roads will be needed to transport major equipment for development of the project. The nearest town with services is Chalhuahuacho located ~10 km east of the property. All supplies and fuel are trucked in from either Arequipa or Cuzco. A power sub-station is located approximately 16 km to the SE of the project. Water is in abundant supply.
Xstrata Copper recently succeeded in its bid to acquire an option to develop the Las Bambas copper project, which is located immediately adjacent to the Haquira project. If Xstrata is successful in the development of their project, Antares should benefit from the infrastructure improvements that will also be required for the Las Bambas Project.
