About Florida Canyon Zinc Project
High grade massive zinc and lead sulfide surface exposures were discovered by Solitario in 1994 as a portion of a larger regional exploration program called Bongará (later to be renamed Florida Canyon) in the Amazonas region of Peru. In 1996 Solitario formed a joint venture with Cominco Ltd. which drilled a total of 82 core holes and conducted extensive surface exploration over the property.
