| Filed by Automated Filing Services Inc. (604) 609-0244 - Augusta Resource Corporation - Exhibit 26 |
BC FORM 53-901F
This is the form of a material change report required under section 85 (1) of the Securities Act and section 151 of the Securities Rules.
Item 1: Reporting Issuer
Augusta Resource Corporation (“Augusta” or the “Company”)
400 - 837 West Hastings Street
Vancouver, B.C. V6C 3N6
Item 2: Date of Material Change
March 27, 2006 and March 31, 2006
Item 3: Press Release
March 27, 2006 and April 3, 2006
Item 4: Summary of Material Change
On March 27, 2006, Augusta announced the commencement of a 20,000-meter diamond drill program at its Rosemont, Arizona, copper/molybdenum project. The objectives of the program are as follows:
| - |
Increase the current measured and indicated resource by upgrading the existing inferred resource at the Rosemont deposit. |
| - |
Provide better definition of near surface oxide -copper mineralization. |
| - |
Provide better definition of silver and gold mineralization in the Rosemont deposit. |
| - |
Acquire geotechnical data to support pit slope designs. |
| - |
Initiate exploration for additional resources in the Broadtop Butte area. |
On April 3, 2006, Augusta announced that it had fully exercised its option to purchase the Rosemont property in Pima County Arizona. On March 31, 2006, the Company paid the remaining balance of $CAD 16.1 million, under its purchase option agreement. Augusta now owns a 100% interest in the Rosemont property subject to a 3% NSR.
Item 5: Full Description of Material Change
On March 27, 2006, the Company announced the commencement of a 20,000-meter diamond drill program at its Rosemont, Arizona, copper/molybdenum project. The program will have several objectives:
| - |
Increase the current measured and indicated resource by upgrading the existing inferred resource at the Rosemont deposit. |
| - |
Provide better definition of near surface oxide -copper mineralization. |
| - |
Provide better definition of silver and gold mineralization in the Rosemont deposit. |
| - |
Acquire geotechnical data to support pit slope designs. |
| - |
Initiate exploration for additional resources in the Broadtop Butte area. |
Rosemont Mineral Resources
The Rosemont copper deposit contains 6,450,000,000 lbs of copper equivalent (442,000,000 tons at 0.73% Cu equivalent) in the Measured and Indicated Category and a further 1,930,000,000 lbs (145,000,000 tons at 0.67% Cu equivalent) in the inferred category at a 0.2% Cu cut-off. (Equivalency calculation based on a price ratio of $1.25/lb Cu to $18.00/lb Mo, with no applied recovery factors.)
Program Details
1) Resource Upgrade
The
copper resource remaining in the Inferred category of the previously announced
Rosemont Mineral Resource presents an attractive opportunity to add
significantly to the Rosemont Measured and Indicated Mineral Resources. The
drilling program will focus primarily on this opportunity to expand the existing
Rosemont resource.

2) Oxide Cu Program
Augusta
has also embarked on a study of the potential for a leachable oxide copper
deposit in the upper part of the Rosemont deposit. This study is prompted by
existing drill-core assays for acid-leachable copper, and the observation of
locally abundant malachite, chrysocolla and similar copper minerals in old core
from three main rock types that overlay the sulphide deposit: andesite, arkosic
sediments and quartz monzonite intrusive. The amenability to acid-leach
extraction of copper from all three of these rock types is currently being
tested in column-leach tests at Mountain States R&D International in Tucson,
Arizona. The upcoming drilling campaign, in conjunction with a recently started
program of re-assaying the old core for oxide-copper material, will further
define the limits and grade of potentially leachable oxide copper in the upper
part of the Rosemont deposit.
3) Silver and Gold
Mineralization
The Rosemont deposit contains significant, but still
incompletely quantified, amounts of silver and gold.
Anaconda and Anamax
only partially assayed core for silver and gold, so Augusta has embarked on a
program of assaying old core that will permit inclusion of gold and silver
grades in future resource calculations.
4) Geotechnical Studies
Augusta has contracted Call & Nicholas, Inc. of Tucson, Arizona, to
carry out the geotechnical studies necessary to determine pit slopes and other
parameters necessary for pit designs. Drilling for subsurface geotechnical data
will be carried out in the current program under the technical supervision of
Call & Nicholas.
5) Broadtop Butte Exploration
Broadtop Butte carries a Historical Resource, estimated by Anamax in 1979,
of 8,800,000 tons averaging 0.77% Cu and 0.04% Mo. Several holes in the current
Augusta program will test for extensions of this historical resource. Success in
this initial program would lead to more intensive exploration of this deposit.
Augusta has not done the work necessary to verify the classification of the
Broadtop Butte resource and is not treating the resource figure as a NI 43-101
defined resource verified by a Qualified Person at this time and therefore the
resource figures, should not be relied upon by investors. However, given that
this resource estimate outlines significant mineralization, it is considered
relevant.
Qualified Person
This drill program will be
conducted under the guidance and supervision of Mike Clarke, VP Exploration for
Augusta Resource. Dr. Clarke, who is a designated Qualified Person, has a Ph.D.
in Geology, over thirty years of international industry experience and the
ability and authority to verify the data generated. Mr. Bill Rose of WLR
Consulting, an independent Qualified Person, will update the Mineral Resources.
Also, on April 3, 2006, the Company announced that it had fully exercised its option to purchase the Rosemont property in Pima County Arizona. On March 31, 2006 the Company paid the remaining balance of $CAD 16.1 million, under its purchase option agreement. Augusta now owns a 100% interest in the Rosemont property subject to a 3% NSR.
Gil Clausen, President and Chief Executive Officer said “The 100% ownership of Rosemont gives us added flexibility as we advance through permitting and feasibility work. With the proceeds from the Private Placement announced on March 17, 2006, Augusta expects to be fully funded through to a project financing decision.”
