Blue Star Gold drilling initiatives Ulu Roma

Subsequent steps embrace detailed mapping, prospecting, a magnetic survey and an EM survey.

Blue Star Gold Corp. introduced that it has commenced the drilling element of its lively exploration program on the Ulu and Roma initiatives within the Kitikmeot area of Nunavut.

Darren Lindsay, Vice President of Exploration for Blue Star Gold, stated: “The preliminary discipline work has helped us to raised refine the targets for our rising record of drill-ready targets in 2024 and 2025.

“We’re having wonderful leads to our floor exploration program with optimistic geophysical outcomes, new discoveries and additional refinement of targets as we transition to the drilling program,” he stated.

Grant Ewing, CEO of Blue Star, stated: “The preliminary section of our exploration marketing campaign has resulted within the profitable refining of quite a few targets which shall be drill examined within the coming weeks.

“We’re centered on gold exploration, however important high-potential mineral targets will even be evaluated as a part of our discovery drilling program on our high-potential properties,” he stated.

Reflexes:

• Two diamond drills have arrived on web site and have moved in direction of the primary drilling targets.
• Ulu Gold Venture
  • Refinement of precedence gold drilling targets:
    • Closing inversions of Mikigon induced polarization (IP) information have been obtained for all pole-dipole strains, indicating that the coincident magnetic, geochemical and IP anomaly continues below glacial-fluvial cowl to the north-northwest of the mapped and sampled goal. Mikigon is situated roughly 3.5 km NE of the high-grade flood zone deposit.
    • Closing IP inversion and obtained mannequin for the Nutaaq development indicating that recognized mineralization is related to rims of chargeability anomalies supporting SE and NW orientation of the recognized Gnu deposit
• Rome Venture
  • Area sampling outcomes:
    • Auma Prospectus: 31.7, 30.4 and 20.1 grams per tonne (g/t) gold (Au) from historic Zone 3. Zone 1 prolonged over 250 metres in strike size with samples returning 20.1 g/t Au and 6.22 g/t Au; quite a few extra multi-gram samples have been obtained from unsampled alteration traits, together with a 7.7 g/t Au pattern on a development parallel to Zone 1.
    • Roma Fundamental: Sampling of inferred footwall vein buildings right down to the traditionally drilled vein (BHP 91MD-01: 12.38 g/t Au over 2.31 metres) returned 40.9 g/t, 15.7 g/t and 6.5 g/t Au
    • An arsenic anomaly in 2022 until was surveyed and an arsenopyrite vein was found over a 320 metre x 170 metre space proximal to a granitoid-metasediment contact with chosen samples returning assay values ​​within the vary of 1.00 to three.89 g/t Au.
    • Drilling goal HI01 yielded 17.75% zinc (Zn) from native subculture huge sulfide samples
    • Chill D’s goal space It yielded random samples with a grade of 1.2% copper (Cu), 1.2% Zn and 1.76 g/t Au; 4.07% Cu, 0.995% Zn, 2.04% lead (Pb) and 335 g/t silver (Ag); and a couple of.57% Cu and 41.5 g/t Ag.
  • Progress in goal refinement:
    • At HI01, a near-surface conductor above the recognized huge sulphide publicity and a robust north-dipping sub-vertical conductor have been recognized by a fixed-loop electromagnetic (EM) survey. The goal conductor measures ~320 metres x 100 metres. The depth to the highest of the modelled plate is 180 metres. This modelled conductor is dipped and down-dipping from the historic drilling and recognized huge sulphide intersections.

Progress of the exploration program

The 2024 exploration program is now transitioning from floor work to drilling. Initially, one drill gap shall be assigned to check the Mikigon goal and the second to judge important high-priority mineral targets.

Through the ~4000 metre program, drill testing shall be performed on quite a few targets together with:

• Discovery-focused drilling at key high-potential targets (i.e. Mikigon, HI01, Central)
• Evaluating targets inside the Nutaaq Zone hall (residence of the Gnu deposit) to broaden sources
• Selective infill drilling and enlargement of recognized sources (flood zone reservoir space)

Aurora Geosciences Ltd. of Yellowknife accomplished 31 linear kilometres (km) of IP surveys, Apex Geoscience Consultants Ltd. of Edmonton accomplished 40 linear kilometres of zoomable time area EM (TDEM) surveys, and Preliminary Exploration Companies of Yellowknife accomplished six mounted loops with 55 linear kilometres of mounted loop EM surveys.

Closing information for the Mikigon IP survey and preliminary information from the Nutaaq IP survey have been obtained and are getting used to finalise drill targets. Closing processing of the HI01 mounted loop EM grid has been obtained with drill targets now finalised. Preliminary outcomes from the magnifying TDEM surveys have been obtained and are being reviewed in parallel with the opposite geophysical survey information units.
