East Star Resources Plc – the Kazakhstan-focused gold, rare earths, and copper explorer – has announced rock chip assay results from samples taken during geological surveys conducted over the Alatagyl target in April 2022 on the Dalny licence of the Chu-Ili Gold Belt in central Kazakhstan.
Highlights:
- Multiple mineralised quartz veins identified, co-incident with large gold in soil anomaly.
- All quartz vein samples contained gold mineralisation.
- Assayed samples on outcropping veins up to 27.4 g/t Au.
- >1300 m of strike mapped at the Alatagyl occurrence.
Alex Walker, East Star CEO, commented:
“We are excited to be able to report on high-grade assay results from fieldwork conducted on the Dalny licence area. Sampling of quartz veins returned assay grades up to 27.4g/t Au in the Alatagyl zone.
“The intrusive related Alatagyl target begins at surface and has a very large surface footprint; as such, combined with historical drill results, it has the potential to be a large orebody if the grade and quantity of veins are proven up in drilling.
“With successful drilling results already identifying target areas in the Apmintas licence, including Novoe (63 m @ 4.51g/t), Eshkilitau II (14 m @ 2.54g/t) and historic results from Southern Shabdar (24.9 m @ 2.86g/t), we are very excited to add yet another potential orebody to our growing portfolio.”
