Project Overview
A Cluster,
Not a Single Target.
Miscanthus combines two porphyry copper-molybdenum-gold anomalies with a separate high-sulfidation gold-silver zone. Each target is supported by surface geochemistry, mapped alteration and coincident geophysical responses—and none has yet been drill tested.

Summary
Miscanthus (Porphyry Cu-Mo-Au and High Sulfidation Epithermal Au)
- Commodity
- Copper · Gold
- Project Type
- Porphyry and High-Sulfidation Exploration Targets
- Area
- 3,200 ha
- Status
- DIA Approved
- 01
3,200 ha property acquired from GlobeTrotters for USD $27,000 and 3,000,000 Forte shares.
- 02
100% owned by Forte.
- 03
Features two Cu-Mo-Au geochemical anomalies, both spanning 3 x 1 km, and a high-sulfidation gold anomaly >1 x >0.5 km.
- 04
Highly prospective for a cluster of telescoped porphyry Cu-Mo-Au systems and overprinted high-sulfidation epithermal Au-Ag.
- 05
Untested by drilling. Geophysical anomalies (high resistivity and chargeability) are strongly associated with these targets.
- 06
DIA drilling permit (valid for five years) received in March 2022.
Location
Western Cordillera of Central Peru.
The Miscanthus property is situated in the Western Cordillera of Central Peru, approximately 375 km southeast of the Toromocho Porphyry Cu-Mo deposit (Chinalco).
- Access
- 447 km from Lima to Nasca (7 hours), with an additional 120 km (3 hours) to the property. Alternative access via Lucanas, Sacsamarca, and Otoca.
- Elevation
- 3,950–4,200 m above sea level.
- Infrastructure
- 120 km from Marcona Port and near the Mantaro-Southern Peru power grid.
Geology
Three Expressions.
One Telescoped System.
Miscanthus lies within the Miocene porphyry Cu-Au-Mo/epithermal Au belt of Central Peru, known for hosting significant deposits such as Toromocho, La Granja, and Lagunas Norte.

Integrated Evidence
The Layers
Line Up.
Geochemistry, alteration mineralogy, magnetics, resistivity and chargeability define overlapping target footprints. The working model places telescoped epithermal and porphyry systems beneath the mapped surface expression.
