Vanstar Announces Drilling Update on Felix
June 01 2021 - 7:00AM
Vanstar Mining Resources Inc. (“Vanstar”, or the “Company”) (TSX.V
- VSR) is pleased to announce that it has concluded an Induced
Polarity (“IP”) survey on the Felix property. The IP survey focused
on a western portion of the property underlain by a folded banded
iron formation and preliminary results identified a number of
chargeability anomalies that are consistent with previously
reported MEGATEM conductors. As a result, the Company is refining
phase 2 of its drill program on the property and intends to drill
the targets as soon as possible. A drill rig has been secured that
will be available to begin the program in September.

In addition, phase one of the drill program did
not return significant gold values. Phase one was designed to test
a historical hole that was drilled in the late 1970’s which
reported gold values ranging from 0.9 g/t to 1.8 g/t. The historic
and phase one holes were drilled in metasediments and not in the
iron formations that are the target of the phase two program.
About the Felix Project
The Felix project is located in an environment of
volcanosedimentary origin comprising a unit of volcanic rock in the
north, another in the south and the central part is occupied by
sedimentary rocks. Late intrusions in the form of batholiths,
plutons or dikes are also noted all around the property. The
property rests mainly on the rocks of the Chicobi Group. The
sedimentary basin contains mudstones and graphitic turbiditic
sandstones, with a minor magnetite-chert and hematite-jasper banded
iron formation and a conglomerate. A significant Algoma-type iron
formation is present in the northern part of the property. The gold
grades intersected in the historic drilling are located near the
southern contact of the latter. In addition, the Chicobi-Nord
regional fault crosses the northern part of the property. This
fault, of regional dimension, borders the Normetal mining camp to
the south. The project is located in the eastern extension of this
mining camp where there are former massive sulphide mines and
numerous gold showings, such as those of the former Perron gold
mine which are actively worked on by Amex Exploration. Shear zones
parallel to the Chicobi-Nord fault are also found in the sediments
of the Chicobi Group and as evidenced by the Authier gold showings
located west of the property.
Mr. Gilles Laverdière, consultant geologist and qualified person
under NI 43-101 has read and approved this press release.
