La Quinta Resources Corp. (LAQ.V)
La Quinta Resources Corp. is a publicly held Canadian natural resource mining company focused on exploring for precious metals principally in Mexico and Democratic Republic of the Congo. The Company is led by a highly skilled, experienced Board and management team with significant successes in finding and developing early stage gold and base metals projects.
La Quinta has moved rapidly to join the many successful companies working in the DRC under the new constitution by entering into a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with its Congolese partners, Wa Balengela Kasai Investments – Congo sprl (WB Kasai) to explore 7,010 square kilometers of the prolific Maniema-South Kivu gold belt. Here, recent exploration work by Banro Corporation has developed resources over four separate projects in a 200 km-long clearly defined mineralized trend overlaying prior production from the colonial era.
