- Additional ounces residing between base of the Scoping Study pit design and optimal pit shell at US$1,750/oz – provides potential open pit expansion to 822 koz Au
2. Underground development: Through incorporation of further Ternera MRE ounces into the mine schedule via potential underground mining – to be interrogated during Phase 2 study work
3. Potential resource additions to be Ternera Exploration Target area: unlocked through exploration within the initial constrained Ternera Exploration Target area
4. Ternera extensional targets: Drill-out and potential conversion of key growth targets at Toro Blanco and Kitsune - situated within 3km of the Ternera Deposit
5. El Zorro district targets: High impact targets remain to be unlocked, including the prospective geology defined at the Animas Viejas Target – just 35km north of Ternera

Occupational Health and Safety are fundamental responsibilities Tesoro has towards its workforce. Our strategies and practices are based on providing a safe workplace for all employees, suppliers and contractors.
Total GHG emissions on a $ per value basis for newly mined gold is significantly lower than that for other major metals and mined products. Tesoro is committed to put in place a framework to ensure future mine developments are built and operated to support global greenhouse mitigation targets.
Tesoro applies leading exploration techniques, technology and practices to promote drilling efficiency and minimise environmental impacts. Furthermore, Tesoro is committed to continual improvement of its environmental performance through a robust environmental management program.
Attracting, developing and retaining a diverse, inclusive and competent workforce is important to Tesoro and a key foundation to the company's policies and practices.
Tesoro partners with the local and host communities of the Coastal Cordillera region of Chile to share value through the creation of local jobs and business opportunities.
Economic sustainability
