Description
When new laws in 1991 allowed wider mining ownership in Mexico foreign investment began streaming into the mining sector and exploration expenditures increased greatly. Bulk-mineable gold deposits were targeted first, followed shortly therafter by programmes for silver and base metal deposits. Success came fairly quickly and produced a significant number of mineral deposit discoveries during the 1990s. This volume originated in response to these discoveries.
