Show D-l.l 6-62 WB FILE INTER-OFFICE CORRESPONDENCE Date: NOVEMBER 1, 1972 To: HUGH DOUGLAS cc: H. G. Peacock From: R. O. WHEATON Sub: COPPER - MEXICO Ref: SAMALAYUCA SEDIMENTARY COPPER DEPOSITS CHIHUAHUA, MEXICO We have reviewed the information that you have sent on the Samalayuca sedimentary copper deposits in Mexico. These are of some geologic interest; however, the occurrences likely are relatively small. Inasmuch as we are not presently active in Mexico, I would suggest that we decline any immediate interest in our response to Mr. Irwin. In the event we later become established in Mexico, this property could be one which we would like to look at on the ground. Mr. Irwin may wish to clarify what his position would be in such event.
