The company has conducted extensive exploration work in southern USA, while continuing to generate cash from gold and silver production assets in Mexico.
The big news is that drilling at Vane's McGhee Peak site, close to the border between New Mexico and Arizona, has found a "clearly identified copper-molybdenum porphyry system". The firm failed, however, at separate explorations at Yuma King and Granite Gap.
