About Zincore

Zincore was formed in 2006 when Southwestern Resources Corp. spun off its zinc projects to create a new TSX listed company. Southwestern was acquired by Hochschild Mining plc in May, 2009. Following a private placement in September 2009, Hochschild's interest in Zincore is 36.9%.

The Zincore foundation rests solidly in the zinc and lead deposits at Accha and Yanque, both located in Peru.
