Olympus' (TSX:OYM)(OTCBB:OLYMF) Stake of the Bau Gold Field to Increase to 93.55%

Olympus' (TSX:OYM)(OTCBB:OLYMF) Stake of the Bau Gold Field to Increase to 93.55%


TORONTO, ONTARIO--(http://www.investorideas.com/ gold and mining stocks blog )  - Sept. 28, 2010 - Olympus Pacific Minerals Inc. ("Olympus" or the "Company") (TSX:OYM)(OTCBB:OLYMF)(ASX:OYM)(FRANKFURT:OP6). The Chairman and Chief Executive Officer David Seton is pleased to announce the Company has reached an agreement to move to 93.5% control of the Bau Gold Project, Sarawak, Malaysia purchasing an additional 43.5% of the Joint Venture Company, North Borneo Gold Sdn Bhd.


BACKGROUND
The Bau Gold Project (800 sq. km) was acquired by Olympus in late 2009 (see Olympus press release dated November 10, 2009).
The Bau Gold Property has been independently assessed as having NI 43-101 gold resources of: 0.56M oz measured + indicated and 1.89M oz inferred (See Olympus Press Release, dated June 23, 2010 ). This resource includes several different mineralization styles, in multiple deposits that have to date been drilled only to shallow depth and remain open to further expansion through continuing exploration.
Recent reprocessing of airborne DIGHEM geophysical data within a central area of the goldfield has shown several exceptionally strong conductivity anomalies at depth. These are interpreted as the expression of large, mineralized quartz vein systems extending down to more than 700m below surface. Exploration of these compelling targets commenced in early September with an initial contract for 3,000 metres of HQ diamond drilling. The 12 month program is for 7,000m of drilling in approximately 45 holes, . to explore mineralization within a deeper volcanic terrain that underlies the predominantly sedimentary surface formations.
See hyperlink - Targeted Taiton A conductivity anomaly
http://olympuspacific.com/pdf/presentations/taiton_a_anomaly.pdf
As part of a mining feasibility study, an additional drilling program will also be conducted to upgrade the bulk of the existing resource to Measured and Indicated categories and to test deeper and lateral resource extensions.
OWNERSHIP HIGHLIGHTS
  • Competitive acquisition price for additional ownership of Bau
  • Sarawak Mining Ordinance has zero royalty rate on gold
  • The Company has Pioneer status with low taxation entitlement for the first five years of production (5%)
  • Exploration upside; multiple large-scale mineralization zones under advanced exploration
  • Bau Project now in full feasibility
AGREEMENT
The principal terms of the agreement, whereby Olympus is to pay a total consideration of USD 35 million to acquire a further 43.5% interest in the operating Joint Venture Company, North Borneo Gold Sdn Bhd ("NBG"), from its local Joint Venture partners over a two-year period, are as follows:
  • Tranche 1: USD7,500,000 to be paid by 30 September 2010 to acquire 12.5% of the ordinary shares and preference shares in NGB;
  • Tranche 2: USD7,500,000 to be paid by 30 October 2010 to acquire a further 12.5% of the ordinary shares and preference shares in NBG;
  • Tranche 3: USD11,000,000 to be paid by 30 November 2011 to acquire a further 10% of the ordinary shares and preference shares in NBG;
  • Tranche 4: USD 9,000,000 to be paid by 30 September 2012 to acquire a further 8.5% of the ordinary shares and preference shares in NBG.
The $7.5M payment of the first tranche will be funded directly from Olympus' treasury, and the majority of the balance can be funded through internally generated cash flow from current operations. Payment scheduling outlined in the terms of agreement allows the Company to purchase the additional interest in the Joint Venture Company with minimal dilution to shareholders. Upon completion of the transaction, Olympus will hold 93.55% of NBG.
The local partners shall remain active participants in the exploration and all facets of the project's development.
The 93.55% majority stake in the Bau Gold Project allows Olympus to confidently move forward with completion of feasibility through to production. The Company will continue with an aggressive drilling program on the large new targets knowing it controls most of the upside in the project. The previous arrangement had been a drawback to committing capital when Olympus was funding 100% for 51% of the returns.
Chairman David Seton believes the addition of 1.06m oz at $33 per oz is a major value add to the company and the control of a developing goldfield in a region with zero gold royalty rates, and low taxes will continue to add significant value in the years ahead.
Olympus is positioned to expand gold production in Southeast Asia from its core properties and has established a production time line that increases the Company's annualized production to 80,000 ounces gold by early 2011 and a production pipeline capable of further expansion to some 300,000 oz by 2014. The diversified gold production Company expects to further expand its Reserve and Resource Estimates in East Malaysia and Vietnam through continued exploration in 2010.

Lake Victoria (OTCBB:LVCA) Intersects Suspected Visible Gold in Three Target Areas, at the Singida-Londoni Gold Project, Tanzania

Lake Victoria (OTCBB:LVCA) Intersects Suspected Visible Gold in Three Target Areas, at the Singida-Londoni Gold Project, Tanzania


GOLDEN, COLORADO--(http://www.investorideas.com/ gold and mining stocks blog ) - Sept. 28, 2010 - Lake Victoria (OTCBB:LVCA) is pleased to provide a further update on the Reverse Circulation (RC) drilling program at the Singida-Londoni gold project in Tanzania. To date, drilling has successfully intersected possible visible gold and the metallic minerals pyrite and arsenopyrite. These metallic sulfide minerals are often associated with gold and gold deposits and were present in three target areas, Sambaru 3, 4 and 5. Assay results are expected shortly of the first consignment of 820 drill samples sent to SGS Laboratory, Mwanza, which will determine the level of gold present.


Drilling at Sambaru 5, a site of abundant artisanal surface workings located near the northwest end of the license area, was successfully completed. A total of six holes were drilled on two sections spaced 80 meters apart. Four narrow, but apparently continuous zones of sulfide mineralization, previously reported in the news release of the 20th September 2010, appear to be present.
The drill rig, recently completed three boreholes to test the area immediately north of the main artisanal mines in the central part of the Sambaru 4 target. Two zones of increased sulfide minerals were intersected at down hole distances of about 19 meters and 70 meters. The zones have a length of about 10 and 23 meters respectively. The upper zone is believed to represent a new mineralized zone. The lower zone, previously intersected in an adjacent hole, is believed to represent the main zone that the artisanal miners worked at a more shallow depth. Drilling indicates the lower zone now extends to at least 70 meters below the surface. Occasional grains of possible gold are present in panned drill hole samples from the upper zone; with more abundant possible gold grains appear to be present in panned samples from the deeper zone. The drill is currently testing a 120 meter long zone of artisanal mining in the southeastern part of Sambaru 4; following this drilling, the drill moves to the Sambaru 2 target near the central part of the five kilometer long license area.
Roger Newell said: " These preliminary drill results are very encouraging and the presence of the metallic sulfide minerals of pyrite and arsenopyrite, which are often associated with gold, underscores the importance of what appears to be visible gold in our drill samples. We look forward to providing drill hole assay results in the near future."

Mining News ; F.D.G. Mining Inc. Raises $1.3 Million on Oversubscribed Private Placement

Mining News ; F.D.G. Mining Inc. Raises $1.3 Million on Oversubscribed Private Placement


VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(http://www.investorideas.com/ gold and mining stocks blog ) - Sept. 28, 2010) - F.D.G. Mining Inc. ("FDG" or the "Company"), a private mineral exploration company based in Vancouver, Canada is pleased to announce the completion of a non-brokered private placement of 10,428,000 common shares at a price of $0.125 per share for gross proceeds of $1,303,500 (the "Private Placement") which was over-subscribed due to greater than anticipated investor interest in the Company and its projects. A finder's fee of $130,350 was paid in connection with the Private Placement resulting in net proceeds of $1,173,150 to be used for, inter alia, exploration activities on the Company's newly optioned Topacio Concession in Nicaragua and general corporate and working capital purposes in preparation for a planned initial public offering in Q4 2010. Currently, the Company has approximately 24 million shares issued and outstanding.

On April 30th 2010, FDG concluded an option agreement with Inversiones Mineras S.A. ("IMISA") of Nicaragua to purchase the 9300 hectare Topacio, S.A. gold concession in Eastern Nicaragua. The definitive agreement calls for bi-annual payments of US$60,000 until such time as the Company pays the full US$3,000,000 purchase price within the 3-year term of the agreement. Upon completion, FDG will own 100% of the mining concession subject to a 3% NSR to IMISA and its affiliated companies. The concession covers all of the known past-producing veins in a low sulphidation epithermal gold district and surrounding exploration targets that have been identified by previous work on the property. An NI 43-101 Technical Report was commissioned by FDG and has now been completed and posted on the Company's web site at www.fdgmining.com. The report compiles much of the previous work and data on the property including drilling, trenching and historic resource estimates up until 1996 when a previous operator completed approximately US$3,000,000 of exploration over a 2-year period.
FDG has completed and submitted an Environmental Impact Study (EIS) at Topacio and is expecting approval from Nicaraguan authorities by the middle of October to begin working on the property.
A Land Use Permit from the local municipality was required to complete the EIS and FDG personnel took the opportunity to meet the local mayor (Alcalde) and councilors to obtain the document and to make a presentation introducing the company, the project and outlining work plans and schedules. The Company is very pleased to announce that it signed an accord on the same day ("Convenio de Colaboración") with the Alcaldía Muelle de los Bueyes pledging cooperation and sharing of resources to improve roads and infrastructure in the area. FDG has agreed to share all new surveys and relevant company information within the property area and re-iterated its intention to work in an environmentally responsible manner while exploring and developing the property. The Alcaldia has pledged in return to cooperate with FDG and share municipal resources and equipment to improve access to the property and to facilitate good relations with local land owners. A copy of the Convenio in Spanish is available on the FDG web site. In a ceremony at the Mayor's office on July 7 2010, FDG signed the Convenio de Colaboración and donated US$10,000 to the municipality to be used for community projects in the area.
FDG also has property interests in five other gold prospects in Nicaragua, two of which are adjacent to B2Gold's Orosi Mine property.

Mining Stocks News; St. Elias Mines Ltd. -- Strawberry Flats Gold Project, B.C.

Mining Stocks News; St. Elias Mines Ltd. -- Strawberry Flats Gold Project, B.C.

VANCOUVER, BC--(http://www.investorideas.com/ mining and gold stocks blog )  - September 28, 2010) -  Lori McClenahan, President of St. Elias Mines Ltd. (TSX-V: SLI) (FRANKFURT: EKL) (US Clearing Symbol: SELSF) ("St. Elias"), is pleased to announce the following update received from Dorex Minerals Inc. ("Dorex") with respect to the Strawberry Flats Gold Project (the "Property") located in southern British Columbia approximately 20 kilometers northwest of the historic Rossland Mining Camp. Dorex has options to acquire up to an 80% interest, subject to a 1.5% NSR, in the Property from St. Elias.


Dorex has completed the Phase I rock, silt and soil geochemical sampling program on the Property. Over 1,200 soil samples, 28 rock samples and eight (8) silt samples were collected by Dorex employees and contractors during the 10 day, on-the-ground program in late summer 2010. The Phase I exploration program was designed to confirm, infill and expand the historic gold-in-soil geochemical anomalies reported by previous workers as well as to ground truth the surface and underground workings on the Strawberry Flats Gold Property.


The bulk of the Phase I program consisted of a large geochemical grid covering an area of approximately 1.8 km by 1 km with 50 m spaced lines sampled on 25 m to 50 m centres. This grid was focused on expanding the historic geochemical grids to the north towards Astral Mining Corp's contiguous Jumping Josephine Project. In addition, one detailed geochemical grid was established near the known anomalies on the Strawberry Flats Gold Project during this program. This detailed grid covered an area of approximately 120 m by 140 m with 20 m spaced lines and sampled on 10 m centres.
All collected samples were shipped to ACME Analytical Laboratories in Vancouver, B.C. where they were sent for analysis by Group 1EX ICP-MS for 41 elements and a 30 gram Fire Assay Finish (Group 3B01) on all samples.
Assay results are expected to be received shortly, and once compiled, these results will be used to define and prioritize targets for a Phase II follow-up mechanized trenching program planned for later this fall. Phase II will also concentrate on additional sampling from the historic anomalies as well as any newly generated geochemical anomalies from the Phase I program.
Dorex's 2010 exploration programs are primarily designed towards delineation of future drill targets for a Phase III diamond drilling program by confirming and expanding on the historical work from the Property including a trenching program completed by Cameco in 1989-1990.
The 1989-1990 programs were conducted to follow up on a potential bedrock source of gold-in-soil anomalies within the Strawberry Flats Gold Project. Cameco's "Trench No. 5" averaged 7.04 g/t Au (from continuous one-metre-long chip samples) over its 12 metre length and exposed a 7 metre wide fault zone with heavily silicified and pyrite chalcopyrite-galena-sphalerite-iron carbonate veined sections, with the a single 2 metre section reported to average 39.16 g/t Au and 6.55 g/t Ag.
Cameco's report indicated that the seven-metre-wide, west-northwest-trending mineralized structure exposed in Trench No. 5 is of sufficient grade to warrant follow-up along strike in both directions and at depth.
The Strawberry Flats Gold Project adjoins the Jumping Josephine gold project owned by Astral Mining Corp. and Kootenay Gold Inc. Drilling results from Astral on the Jumping Josephine main zone have included 10 metres of 9.95 g/t Au and 8 metres of 8.31 g/t gold.
Technical details contained in this news release have been reviewed by Paul D. Gray, P.Geo., Company Director and a qualified person as defined in National Instrument 43-101.

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(http://www.investorideas.com/ gold and mining stocks blog  - Sept. 28, 2010) - Klondike Gold Corp. (TSX VENTURE:KG) (the "Company") drilled five holes, totaling 600 meters, on the Clubine gold-base metal deposit in the Salmo area of southeastern B.C.
The fall 2009 drill program indicated the presence of "Bonanza grade" 148.41 g/t gold (4.8 ounces of gold / tonne) and 203 g/t Ag across 0.2 m within a wider zone of 19.44 g/t gold over 3.45 m ( 0.63opt / 11.3 feet). Six of the nine holes drilled in 2009 successfully intersected the target gold/silver/ copper zone, proving that the zone is continuous along strike and to depth.
The mineralization at Clubine is hosted in a shear zone containing lenses of quartz and quartz-carbonate, and gold-silver-base metal veins. It is small past producer that recovered 123,293 of gold and 239,463 grams of silver from 3676 tonnes mined in the late 1930s. Exploration work at that time consisted of several exploration and production drifts that followed the shear-vein structure, from surface, through strike lengths of up to approximately 90 meters
The Clubine project is in a district with several important past producing camps: the Rossland gold-copper camp, which produced 2.76 million ounces of gold, is located 40 kilometers to the west, the Ymir silver camp is 8 km to the northeast, the Sheep Creek gold camp, 15 km to the east and the Silver King camp, 20 km to the north (refer to the Nelson Mining Camp map for the locations of these camps). http://klondikegoldcorp.com/i/pdf/GSC_Nelson_Past_Producers.pdf
The follow-up to the 2009 fall drill program, initially consisting of 5 holes totaling 600 meters, was intended to extend both the strike, down dip extension and continuity of the veins intersected in the fall. The company is waiting for the complete logs and assays of the drill holes. Results of drill logs and chemical analyses are pending.
Drill holes were targeted to intersect the northern extension of the known gold-bearing structure, and also to intersect the down dip extension of the main gold-bearing veins discovered in fall 2009 drilling (CB09-1,2,3). Both the lode structure and several thin mineralized quartz veins were intersected in the recent drilling - results pending. Based on the encouraging results from this program, step out drilling to the north is warranted. As well, drilling down dip, below the levels of known mineralization, is also recommended in an attempt to define controlling down plunge rakes of the mineralization (ore shoots within the structure).

Copper Stocks; Toro Resources Corp (CNSX:TRK) : Positive Independent Consultant Report for the Morgan Peak Copper Project

Copper Stocks; Toro Resources Corp (CNSX:TRK) : Positive Independent Consultant Report for the Morgan Peak Copper Project


VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(http://www.investorideas.com/ gold and mining stocks blog )  - Sept. 28, 2010) - Toro Resources Corp. (CNSX:TRK) (the "Company") is pleased to announce completion of initial mapping and an aerial survey at its Morgan Peak Copper Project. The project is located within the World Class Globe-Miami Mining District in central Arizona, close to major copper mines, such as the recently opened Carlota (Quadra/FNX), and major new discoveries such as Resolution (Rio Tinto/BHP Billiton).
The Company implemented an evaluation and mapping program by Dr. Warren Pratt. Dr. Pratt examined Morgan Peak over a 10-day period in July. In his executive summary, Dr. Pratt confirms the presence of significant copper mineralization across an area of roughly 3 km x 0.8 km. He also emphasizes potential for other mineralized zones in previously ignored areas and considers many of the targets as "virtually drill ready". Dr. Pratt's discovery of the Birthday Zone, an untested target with great promise, highlights the need for detailed mapping of the entire project. His work provides an excellent starting point for remapping.
"We are excited by the positive report from Dr. Pratt and the new targets he has generated," said Bill Galine, president of Toro Resources. "We are fortunate that Dr. Pratt could assess the property. As well as confirming known copper mineralization, probably leachable, in the West part of the area, he agrees that the Morgan Peak project has significant exploration potential. His new drill targets reinforce our view that additional mineralization will be found elsewhere on the large claim block."
Geologic mapping, sampling and drilling are scheduled for later in the year, depending on permitting. A recent aerial survey over approximately 1550 hectares at Morgan Peak will produce air photos, a topographic map with 1 m contours, and an orthophoto map of the claim at a scale of 1:1000. All will be used for detailed geologic mapping in the near future. A field survey program will provide detailed surface information including sampling, outcrop and contact locations, as well as accurate historic drill hole locations with elevations.
Toro's disclosure of a technical or scientific nature in this press release has been reviewed and approved by Bernie Stannus P.Eng, Toro's vice-president of exploration, who serves as a qualified person under the definition of National Instrument 43-101. Toro Resources recently launched its website which includes the company's new corporate presentation and fact sheet. Please visit www.tororesources.com. Toro Resources Corp. (CNSX:TRK) is a publicly held Canadian exploration company focused on acquiring, exploring and developing mineral properties located in favourable geo-political areas.

Silver Stocks; Wildcat Updates Preliminary Economic Assessment on Hardshell; 6 Million Ounces Per Year Silver Production, NPV of $357 Million; Announces $5 Million Private Placement

Silver Stocks; Wildcat Updates Preliminary Economic Assessment on Hardshell; 6 Million Ounces Per Year Silver Production, NPV of $357 Million; Announces $5 Million Private Placement


VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(http://www.investorideas.com/ gold and mining stocks blog )  - Sept. 28, 2010) - Wildcat Silver Corporation (TSX VENTURE:WS) ("Wildcat" or "the Company") is pleased to announce the results of an updated scoping study on its 80%-owned Hardshell project in Santa Cruz County, Arizona. The Company also announces it has negotiated a private placement to raise up to $5 million to fund the continued development of the project.
The updated preliminary economic assessment (PEA) demonstrates a net present value of US$357 million (7.5%), with an internal rate of return of 19% on an after-tax basis. Silver production is expected to average approximately 6 million ounces for the first five years, with cash costs for producing silver estimated to be negative $0.40 per ounce for the first five years, net of by-products and taxes. The initial capital cost is estimated to be US$337 million, and will include an open pit and underground operation lasting 18 years. The PEA assumed metal prices of $16.78 per ounce silver, $8.13 per dry metric ton (DMTU) manganese or $0.41 per pound contained manganese, $0.91 per pound zinc, and $3.07 per pound copper.
"The Hardshell project continues to demonstrate robust economics, low risk and a very low cost silver production capacity in a mining friendly location," says Chris Jones, President and CEO of Wildcat Silver Corporation. "This, coupled with the potential benefits for southern Arizona in terms of jobs and tax proceeds, makes Hardshell a great project. Further, the $5 million private placement will fund the significant exploration program we have planned."
Financial Highlights
The Cases:
Price Scenario60/40 Prices (Base Case)Recent Prices
NPV @ 7.5%$357M$423M
IRR19%21%
Silver Price $/oz16.7818.42
Manganese Price $/lb0.410.42
Zinc Price $/lb0.910.95
Copper Price $/lb3.073.33
M3 Engineering and Technology ("M3") of Tucson, Arizona prepared the PEA and NI 43-101 technical reports, which will be filed on SEDAR within 45 days. The M3 study concludes that the project has potential to be feasible and should progress to pre-feasibility engineering, and that there are further opportunities to improve and optimize the project's economics.
M3 used 60/40 base pricing for NI 43-101 reporting purposes, reflecting 60% historical and 40% forward market prices. This represents our base case pricing. A forward market is not available for manganese, thus the long term price is estimated to be $8.13 per DMTU, or $0.41 per pound contained manganese. The three-year trailing average for manganese is $9.53 per DMTU, or $0.43 per pound contained manganese.
Recent pricing represents recent cash prices as reported by the London Metals Exchange, or in the case of manganese, in Ryan's Notes during August 2010.
Mineral Resource Estimate
The mineral resource at Hardshell has been previously reported in the April 20, 2010 press release, and is included here for reference:
Mineral Resource Estimate ($55/ton cutoff)
Indicated OxideTonnes (000s)Silver (g/t)Manganese (%)Zinc (%)Copper (%)
6,004187.86.831.030.10
Inferred OxideTonnes (000s)Silver (g/t)Manganese (%)Zinc (%)Copper (%)
39,26861.07.661.550.06
Inferred Sulfide6,99935.05.772.250.10
Production Estimate
The mining process at Hardshell will initially be an open pit, with underground operations beginning four years after start-up. Current plans call for producing 3,630 tonnes of ore per day. The processing facility will use an SO2 leach followed by copper precipitation, zinc SXEW, as well as manganese and silver recovery circuits. The Hardshell project is expected to produce, over its 18 year life, an annual average of:
  • 4.1 million ounces of silver
  • 233,000 tonnes of manganese carbonate
  • 20,187 tonnes of zinc cathode
  • 960 tonnes of copper
Manganese
Manganese is the fourth largest metal market in terms of tonnage after iron, aluminum and copper, with 2008 production totalling 46 million tonnes of ore. Manganese has numerous common applications and plays a vital role in the smelting of iron ore into steel, as well as an alloy for various high-wear and other steels. U.S. Domestic demand for manganese is 4 million tonnes per year.
The Hardshell project is expected to produce an average of 233,000 tonnes of manganese carbonate per year. Prices for manganese ores have averaged over $9.50 per dry metric tonne unit (three year trailing average), or approximately $0.43 per pound manganese, so there is considerable additional value to be realized. The Company has also been in recent discussions with various parties as potential purchasers for the metal. However, Wildcat intends to retain its interest in manganese as it believes considerable upside remains.
Private Placement
Wildcat also announces it has arranged for a non-brokered private placement of up to ten million units at a price of $0.50 per unit, for gross proceeds of up to $5 million. Each unit is comprised of one common share and one half of one non-transferable share purchase warrant entitling the holder to purchase one common share at a price of $0.75 per common share for a period of one year following the closing of the private placement.
Proceeds from the financing will be used to execute a 12,500 ft (4,000 meter) exploration drilling program designed to explore high value targets around the existing mineral resource. Metallurgical drilling will also be undertaken to provide material for studies designed to reduce forecasted processing costs. Wildcat also plans to operate a pilot plant with this material to further define the metallurgical operating characteristics and provide detailed design inputs for the Hardshell processing plant.
Qualified Person
The PEA and NI 43-101 technical reports were prepared by an integrated team led by M3 Engineering and Technology Corporation ("M3") of Tucson, Arizona as the primary author of the technical report. The technical report was conducted under the overall review of Timothy S. Oliver, P.E. of M3, and independent Qualified Person under the standards set forth under NI 43-101. Timothy S. Oliver has reviewed and confirmed the technical information contained within this press release.

Vanstar (TSX VENTURE:VSR) Acquires 2 Gold Properties in Abitibi


LA PRAIRIE, QUEBEC--(http://www.investorideas.com/ gold and mining stocks blog )  - Sept. 27, 2010) - The management of Vanstar Mining Resources Inc («Vanstar»)(TSX VENTURE:VSR) is pleased to announce the acquisition of 2 gold properties in Abitibi, Quebec.
The Nelligan property comprises 92 cells covering an area of 4,968 hectares and is located near Chapais in Abitibi.
Geological description of the Nelligan project
Nelligan showing
The central part of the property hosts a volcano-sedimentary sequence between 1 to 2 km in length, trending ENE that is associated with the Obatogamau Formation. This mineralization is located near a large EW to ENE deformation corridor within the Guercheville-Fancamp system. The geological and structural environment is favorable to the presence of Archean mesothermal gold mineralization of vein and replacement types. This is the same context as the Joe Mann mine (3.35M t at 9.1g/t), the Phillibert deposit (1.5Mt at 5.4g/t) and the Chevrier deposit (1.8Mt at 5.1g/t).
Historical drilling shows grades of 2.17 g/t Au and 3.5 g/t Au (drill holes 94-13 and 95-01) on respective widths of 4.4 and 10 metres.
Phillibert showing
The Phillibert 1 showing is hosted in an amphibolitized and lightly epidotized gabbro. The gold mineralization is linked to a white to smoky quartz vein with tourmaline, carbonate and is lightly mineralized with pyrite. Gold seems more abundant where the quartz vein contains tourmaline and/or pyrite. The historical data mentions grades of 31.06 g/t Au and 2.54 g/t Ag on 1.22 m, 22.66 g/t on 1 m and another one with 6.0 g/t Au on 1 m in channel sampling. Drill hole 973-02 returned grades of 18.86 g/t Au on 0.60 metre.
Vanstar will own 100 % of this property in exchange of a $4,160 cash payment and the issuing of 225,000 common shares of Vanstar to the sellers of the property. The sellers are keeping a 2% NSR which 1 % can be purchased for $1,000,000.
The Destor property comprises 72 cells covering an area of 3,888 hectares and is located 30 km north of Rouyn-Noranda.
Description of the Destor project
Two blocks of claims composes the Destor project. They are located within the favorable geological environment of the Destor-Porcupine Fault where many gold deposits can be found, notably the former Beattie mine ( Clifton Star- Osisko ), the Fayolle deposit and the Duquesne mine. Many Megatem anomalies can be found on the north block while many metal base and input showings show up on the south block.
Vanstar will own 100 % of this property in exchange of a cash payment of $3,354 and the issuing of 500,000 common shares of Vanstar to the seller of the property. The seller is keeping a 0.5 % NSR.
These new acquisitions are part of Vanstar's strategy to progressively acquire high potential properties in various geological environments within the province of Quebec. A geological compilation will follow the acquisition of these new properties.
This press release was read and approved by Mr. Gilles Laverdière, geologist and Qualified Person as defined in NI 43-101.
