Urastar President, Adrian Robertson, P.Eng, comments “We have been excited about El Antimonio for a long time. Given its location in the Mojave-Sonora Megashear, and the geology and extensive historical workings on the property we knew there was potential for widespread gold mineralization at El Antimono. I think the results of the first few thousand meters of drilling on the property show that we may be onto something very significant here. Based on these results we’re planning to continue to aggressively explore at El Antimonio and expand on some of these intercepts.”

Drill cutting samples were submitted to ALS Minerals in Hermosillo for preparation. Sample analysis was done at ALS Minerals in North Vancouver, Canada for gold by the Fire Assay method on 30 gram subsamples with AAS finish. ALS is an independent ISO certified commercial laboratory. Quality control included monitoring results of certified reference standards, duplicates and blank samples submitted with the samples.
