Star Kimberlite-Progress Report Four Holes Completed Best Kimberlite Intersection To Date
Jonathan Challis, President, is pleased to report that four drill holes have now been completed on the company’s 100 percent-owned Star Kimberlite, with drilling underway on the fifth hole. The third drill hole, Star 003, was collared approximately 200 metres west of Star 002, intersecting 36.3 metres of kimberlite. The fourth drill hole, Star 004, was collared 275 metres west and 200 metres north of Star 003 (425 metres west of Star 001) and intersected 116.2 metres of massive kimberlite. The kimberlite contains large quantities of indicator minerals over most of the interval with a significant number of large eclogitic garnets present. This kimberlite intersection is the thickest encountered on the property to date and could have a major positive impact on resource calculations for the Star Kimberlite.
The Star Kimberlite is located 60 kilometres east of Prince Albert, Saskatchewan. The current drill program is designed to provide a better understanding of the geometry, size and economic potential of the deposit.
