Identification Of High-Grade Silver-Rich CRD Target

VANCOUVER – Spartan Metals Corp. has identified a silver-rich Carbonate Replacement Deposit (CRD) target on trend with the past producing Tungstonia Mine vein system at the Eagle Tungsten-Silver-Rubidium Project in eastern Nevada.
Brett Marsh, President and CEO, said, “When hydrothermal fluids moving along the structural corridors interact with thick, carbonate-rich sedimentary packages at the contact with the Tungstonia Granite intrusion, we have the potential to develop an enriched depositional zone along preferred limestone and dolostone beds, at structural intersections, and where we see veining in our host rocks. The rock chip samples from 2024 returned several high-grade results that carry several of the primary metals commonly associated with carbonate replacement deposit mineralization including silver, lead, copper, and zinc. This strongly suggests the potential for a larger carbonate replacement deposit that could potentially contain significant critical metal concentrations at the Tungstonia Claim Block.
We are equally enthusiastic about the discovery of an extensive vein system with significant silver-copper-antimony that is continuing to develop at our Rees Claim block. The initial mapping and surface sampling of the claim block appears to connect the former Antelope Mine to a series of veins, breccias, and CRD mineralization located approximately 1.0 kilometer to the east of the mine itself. The potential to discover bonanza grade silver at over 1,500 grams per tonne along with other critical metals such as antimony, arsenic, and copper over an approximate 1-kilometer strike length makes the Eagle Project a significant U.S. critical metal asset.”
