Successful Trenching Program At The Wildhorse Project

VANCOUVER – Glenstar Minerals Inc. has successfully completed the trenching program at its Wildhorse Project in Mineral County, Nevada. The trenching was conducted on the Coca Cola Zone, which resulted in defining the bedrock orientation of a meter scale zone of quartz veining and copper oxide and sulfide mineralization. This zone was traced for fifteen (15) meters of strike length along an east-west trend. Two trenches were completed that exposed four (4) bedrock exposure cuts, and fourteen (14) chip channel samples were collected; each sample measuring ~1.5 meters per sample of wallrock exposure. The two trenches were excavated to a wider width than originally planned in order to follow and expose more bedrock and follow the trending mineralization. As a result, there was no need to dig a third trench, which was deemed to be unnecessary given the expanded size of the two trenches.
Of significant note was that the trenching exposed a wider width of alteration than anticipated and the trend of mineralization continued throughout the exposed bedrock. The expanded size of the trenches also showed that what was originally thought to be a north-south trend of mineralization was intersected by the newly uncovered east-west trend of highly fractured and altered rock that appears to continue beyond the trenches. This new trending information will greatly inform where to target the first phase of drilling that will occur at the site.
In addition, the expanded size of the trenches provided the opportunity to utilize the excavated dirt to be used to construct the foundation of what is expected to be become two drill pads at the Coca Cola Zone.
The Wildhorse Property is comprised of 89 mineral claims, representing 1,780 acres (720 hectares) in Mineral County, Nevada, and was initially targeted after compilation of all available data, including notes of a 1975 field examination contained in the Anaconda Company archives housed at the university of Wyoming. The claims show historical workings that appear to date from the late 1800’s and early 1900’s. Other claim stakes that the geological team discovered on the property indicate the last time the area was staked was 2011, however, these claims were never registered with the BLM. Preliminary geological assessment of the claims, and the area in general, indicate there are a series of east dipping mineralized zones. Initial field examination of the property identified and sampled a quartz veinlet zone containing in excess of 1 gram per ton gold, 1% copper, and 6,100 ppm of antimony. It was also reported that outcropping zones also contain bismuth and tungsten, which points to a focused intrusive source for the epidote skarn alteration and poly-metallic system.
