Canstar Resources Inc. announce that it has completed the compilation of a large amount of historic data relating to its claims in the vicinity of the historic Buchans Mine in Central Newfoundland. The Buchans Mine operated for 58 years, processing 16.2 million tonnes of ore from five Volcanic-hosted Massive Sulphide ("VMS") ore bodies with an average grade of 14.5% zinc ("Zn"), 7.6% lead ("Pb"), 1.33% copper ("Cu"), 126 g/t silver ("Ag"), and 1.37 g/t gold ("Au") (unverified historic data). It was one of the higher grade base metal mining camps in Canadian history and remains relatively underexplored for such a high-grade VMS district. The Company currently holds 10,511 hectares (105 km2) of mineral claims (100% Canstar) in the Buchans area (the "Buchans Claims") including 2,834 hectares (28 km2) of mineral claims under a joint venture agreement with Glencore Canada (the "Mary March JV Claims"), with Canstar holding 56% and acting as operator. Recently, Canstar completed work towards a standardized of historic work on its claims. As a result,
the Company has assembled a surficial geochemistry database of 13,136 soil samples, and 2,430 basal tills. The database includes data from more than 3,500 drill holes in the area, of which 236 historic drill holes are on Canstar's claims. The Company's team is working on standardizing and incorporating data from these drillholes including assays, lithology logs and whole rock geochemistry. Despite the long history of mineral exploration around the Buchans mine, the work has been sporadic and tightly clustered around areas of early success leaving large areas relatively untouched and many strong indications that have not been followed up. Canstar's exploration team has used the 2017 SkyTEM survey to identify seven underexplored EM anomalies, only two of which have been tested by historic drilling.
