New Land Package Includes Past Producing Yellow Jacket Tungsten Mine

VANCOUVER – Spartan Metals Corp. announced that within its recently staked land expansion of the Tungstonia Claim block at its Eagle Project in eastern Nevada, included the acquisition of the past producing Yellow Jacket Tungsten Mine on the historic Yellow Jacket Claims. The Yellow Jacket Tungsten Mine is located approximately 2 kilometers (km) E-NE of the legacy Tungstonia Mine.
Rebecca Ball, VP of Exploration, said, “Acquiring an additional, past producing tungsten mine in the district is an exciting development for Spartan as it allows the team to evaluate and explore both the vein system at Tungstonia and skarn type mineralization potential at Yellow Jacket. Our geologic work continues to expand the footprint of tungsten mineralization at the Eagle Project that commonly exceeds 1.0% WO3. The higher-grade material that was historically produced from the Yellow Jacket Tungsten Mine combined with the known production from our Tungstonia and Rees tungsten mines indicates a significant tungsten endowment in the district, and we are focused on expanding this district-scale exploration project.”
