King Tut Gold Project

The King Tut project is located in a region well known for its gold mining — the La Rioja Province.

La Rioja is home to several Tier 1 multi-million oz gold mines controlled by the majors, including Barrick Gold’s Veladero mine, which produced 550,000oz of gold in 2019 and is in close proximity to BM8’s King Tut project.

The Gualcamayo mine, which is owned by Colombian company Mineros S.A. and regularly produces more than 100,000oz of gold a year, lies to the south, while across the Chilean border to the north-west lies the Cerro Castle project, which contains 23 million oz of gold in reserves.

BM8 is currently developing an exploration program alongside it’s larger El Aguila Gold & Silver Project in Argentina.
