5,466 hectares (13,506 acres).
San Sebastián del Oeste is an historic silver and gold mining district located in south-western Jalisco State, approximately 155 kilometres (km) southwest of Guadalajara and 40 km northeast of Puerto Vallarta, accessible by paved and gravel roads. One small, high grade, underground silver-gold mine, Santa Quiteria (75 tonnes per day), continues to operate in the district. The San Sebastián properties being acquired by Endeavour surround the Santa Quiteria mine and represent a new, district-scale, silver-gold exploration opportunity for the Company.
