About Urumalqui:
Urumalqui is an advanced silver-gold project located approximately 70 kilometres by road east of the port city of Trujillo, Perú. Gitennes acquired Urumalqui in 2003 in a joint venture and in June 2005 the joint venture was terminated and Gitennes assumed 100% control of the Project. Exploration activities between 2003 and 2008 included three core drilling campaigns totalling 47 holes.
