Stratiform gold-rich massive sulphide replacement skarn mantos, hosted in limestones, and lesser veins, hosted in dacitic volcanic rocks. Past production and reserves amount to about 10 million tons of ore grading at 8% Zn, 0.6% Cu, 1.5% Pb, 1.5 grams/ton Au and 50 grams/ton Ag, on average.
The deposit was discovered in the early 1970s. The Metallgesellschaft AG owned the property for a number of years and then sold it to a Chilean entrepreneur, who started mining it in 1984. It was subsequently purchased by Lac Minerals. In 1994, Barrick Gold Corporation acquired Lac Minerals which included El Toqui. Breakwater Resources Ltd. purchased Toqui in August 1997.
The property includes the stratiform Aserradero, Concordia, Doña Rosa-Mallin Sur, Estatuas, Mallin-Mónica, and San Antonio orebodies, and the Antolin and Zúñiga discordant vein deposits.
