The MX Amparo was a petition to set aside a Guerrero State Court auction in 2011 (the “Court Auction”) of a 50% interest in the Celia Gene and a 100% interest in the Celia Generosa concessions, which two mineral concessions comprise the Xochipala Concessions. The Court Auction had occurred under the mistaken assumption that the Comacho Interest remained a part of the estate of Carlos Camacho when, in fact, the Company had purchased the Camacho Interest from the Camacho estate in 2007.
