AuStar Gold Limited provided the following update to shareholders regarding the Kempe drilling program in the MSA at the Company's flagship Morning Star mining operation at Woods Point, Victoria. The Morning Star mine historically produced ~857koz gold at an average grade of ~26.5g/t Au. AuStar Gold is currently mining Morning Star at grades above 10g/t gold from the McNally and Stones Reefs*. The Company began initial drilling at the MSA with its newly acquired Kempe drill rigs and crew in June 2020 to target the `Age of progress Reef', a rich historical reef in a highly nuggety zone. The program was also designed to give the mining team a potential second access point and region to mine. Delineation of this mineralised structures in these upper levels of Morning Star may complement the McNally and Stones Reefs in the future, providing a second route for haulage. After an initial two holes drilled from MSA, Rig 1 was reassigned to 8 Level drilling in order to prioritise near term production opportunities identified by the Geology team around the McNally, Stones and Maxwell Reefs. On completion of 8 Level drilling this Rig will continue the program in the MSA. Drilling performance in recent weeks has been pleasing with crews now operating on a back to back (continuous cross-shift) basis. Drilling Results for MSA047 and MSA049: Initial drill holes (MSA047 and MSA049), have returned the following significant results, interpreted as being associated to extension of the `The Age of Progress", with the following weighted average grades: MSA047 - 1.40m @ 5.95g/t Au from 11.3m including 0.7m @ 7.47g/t Au and 0.35m @ 7.11g/t Au. MSA049 - 2.42m @ 1.68g/t Au from 26.5m including 0.25m @ 6.07g/t Au and 0.25 @ 4.54g/t Au. MSA drilling plans to test the north strike and down dip extension of `The Age of progress'. Geological mapping and sampling have commenced to identify and model mineralisation and any historical stopes where old workings have not been surveyed. This will enable improved drill targeting and planning to maximise potential for a successful drill program. An initial two holes testing `The Age of Progress' structure from the Morning Star Adit were completed in July. The significance of identifying promising gold mineralisation from this area is that the upper levels of Morning Star have, historically, been considered largely depleted. Any potential contribution of production from these zones is likely to make a material contribution to operations.
