CIA MINERA CASCABEL S.A. de C.V. and IMDEX
Inc. were organized in 1988 to provide contract
exploration services in Mexico. Both are privately held corporations. Since then, IMDEX/CASCABEL
personnel have undertaken projects for over 100 clients,
throughout Mexico and 5 other Latin American countries. Our work
includes a broad range of successfully completed programs
including some in the most logistically and culturally difficult
areas of Latin America. In 1998 we also began doing contract 1:50,000
geological mapping and sampling for the Consejo de
Recursos Minerales, the Mexican Geological Survey. IMDEX/Cascabel also have
contractually inherited and/or actively acquired by application and sorteo major
exploration plays in significant past producing districts in Mexico over the
last 13 years. These include: Batopilas District (Ag), Santa Eulalia District (polymetallic
Ag, Pb,Zn) and Jibosa de Los Reyes in the Jimenez District (CuOxide).
These projects are available for option.
IMDEX/CASCABEL currently have over 30
experienced Mexican geologists, geotechnicians, permitting
experts, landmen, expediters and office support personnel on
staff, all of whom understand the needs of the international
mining community and what it takes to get things done in Mexico
and elsewhere in Latin America. Our bilingual contact persons
make communication between client and field personnel
straightforward. Our diverse staff allows us to offer a full
range of services, up to complete turnkey exploration management
operations where we also handle the tax, accounting, and
insurance aspects of your program. We also have contacts for a
broad range of experienced Mexican specialty consultants as
needed.
The exploration scene in Mexico has matured significantly over
the last 5 years. Many major discoveries have been made and
reconnaissance exploration has largely given over to advanced
drilling programs which temporarily require trained geological
and technical support. We can quickly supply you the people
youll need and eliminate the problems inherent in staffing
up or importing personnel from outside of Mexico.
More significantly, changing political realities have resulted in
a considerable increase of governmental and environmental
permitting requirements which materially affect exploration:
especially advanced-stage projects. Getting permits in a timely
fashion is obviously vital and requires knowledge of the
governmental agencies involved and the people within these
agencies who approve applications. We have dedicated specific
individuals to learning the ins and outs of this bureaucratic
process and have successfully permitted many projects. Permitting
requirements are expected to increase in the future and we intend
to keep our facilitators abreast of any changes so that we can
continue to get your permitting problems resolved as quickly as
possible.
