Arctic Star Exploration Corp. (“Arctic Star” or the “Company”) (TSXV:ADD) (Frankfurt:82A2) (WKN:A2DFY5) (OTC:ASDZF) is pleased to announce drilling has commenced on the Diagras diamond project located in the diamond corridor of the prolific Lac de Gras kimberlite field, 22km NNE of the Diavik diamond mine & 36km east of the Ekati diamond mine in NWT Canada. Arctic Star’s Diagras project contains 23 kimberlites previously discovered by DeBeers.
Highlights
$2 Million Financing Completed for Drilling
Arctic Assumes Operator of JV
Diamond Drilling 10-15 Targets
Project Management
The Diagras diamond project, originally a 60/40 joint venture between Margaret Lake Resources Inc. (TSXV: DIA) and Arctic Star (TSXV: ADD) respectfully. Margaret Lake has recently undergone management changes and has shifted its focus elsewhere. In 2019 Margaret Lake informed Arctic Star that it had no exploration plans for Diagras.
The joint venture agreement allows for Arctic Star to take over management in such a situation by proposing and excuting a plan and budget. Arctic Star proposed a $2,100,000 budget for the Diagras project 2021. Margaret Lake has informed Arctic Star that it will not to participate. In such a case the JV agreement has a dilution formula. At the time Arctic Star expends the proposed 2021 budget the ownership will change to approximately 77% Arctic Star and 23% Margaret Lake. Arctic Star will continue as the operator. If Margaret Lake dilutes below 10% in the future, the company’s interest converts to a 1.5% GOR.
Diamond Drill Program Commences
Arctic Star has commissioned Aurora Geoscience to be the operator of the Diagras drilling and geophysics program. Aurora is a Yellowknife based group and is able to operate without travel restrictions in the northwest territories. David Kelsch will be responsible for the day to day management of Aurora. David has over 30 years experience predominantly in diamond exploration and has been involved in a number of discoveries. David has been managing the geophysical programs that led to the development of the drill targets on the Diagras property over the past years.
David has been working closely with Buddy Doyle, our exploration manager.
Any Kimberlite intercepted in the drill program will be flown to Yellowknife for detailed logging and sampling by Aurora staff who are familiar with kimberlites. Aurora manged exploration progams for Mountian Province and Dominion diamonds and have been in diamond exploration in the Territories since the 1990’s. Samples will be sent to Chuck Fipke’s lab, CF laboratories of Kelowna, where they will be reviewed by Kelsch and Doyle prior to undergoing analysis for diamonds for Caustic Fusion.

Fabled Silver Gold Corp. (“Fabled” or the “Company”) (TSXV:FCO)(OTCQB:FBSGF) and (FSE:7NQ) is pleased to announce updates of diamond drill holes SM20-08B from the on-going 8,000 meter drill program on the “Santa Maria” Property in Parral, Mexico.
As previously mentioned in our news release of March 31, 2021, drill hole SM20-08 was collared approximately 225 meters east of the drill station for holes SM20-4, 5, and 6. See drill plan below as designed to drill thru the interpreted main north – south structure at an oblique angle and hit the Santa Maria structure.
The hole was drilled with NQ size core, 1 7/8th inches at -50 degrees for a premature total depth of 64.18 meters where the hole was terminated by major faulting and could not be advanced further.
Drill hole SM20-08B was a re-entry into hole SM20-08 with larger PQ size drill core, 3.36 inches in diameter, to compensate for the massive broken structure, which allowed the hole to be drilled to a final depth of 234 meters and was successful in reaching its target.
Drill results just received show the last sampled interval was from 226.5 – 227.6 meters grading 75.9 g/t silver in a north – south silicified structure, mineral bearing and black in color, this unit continues to the end of the hole at 234 meters, an extra 6.4 meters.
Peter J. Hawley, CEO and President, states, “The rest of this hole is now being sampled on a rush/priority. In addition, once the drill machine completes hole SM20-13 it will return to this drill station, re-enter the hole and continue from the depth of 234 meters onwards until the structure has been clearly exited.”
Drill hole SM20-09 was drilled with PQ size core from the collar, in anticipation of bad ground conditions, at -60 degrees for a targeted depth of -250 meters to hit the Santa Maria structure, as encountered in hole 8B and was terminated prematurely at 231 meters where not only did the hole collapse due to the fault but jammed the drill rods and a section of the drill string and bit was left in the hole.
BLUE SKY DRILL TARGET UPDATE Peter J. Hawley, CEO and President, remarks, “As I mentioned previously, we are exploring areas never explored before, with new ideas to test our structure-on-structure theory over the Property.
New roads and drill pads have been completed to test IP Geophysics anomaly IPSM-04 located in the central north section of the Santa Maria Property and extends over 700 meters in an east – west trend.
Geophysical interpretation describes the anomaly as follows; ” IPSM-04 is +700 meters trending east to west over calcite / silica veins trending north to south. Both targets are considered to be shallow seated wide body targets which could represent disseminated to sulphide mineralization associated with quartz carbonate veins and imprinted over the East – west anomaly.”
Drill hole SM20-12 has been designed to intersect the eastern extension of the anomaly at a vertical depth of -150 meters, while SM20-13 is being planned to intercept the western sector of the anomaly at a vertical depth of -275 meters.
A major C1 regional north – south fault in the center of the property displaces the anomaly approximately 30-40 meters to the south. This is the same structure tested by holes SM20-8-11. See Plan View of Drill Station Locations over IP Anomalies below.
In the area of the intersection of the North – South Structure and anomaly IPSM-04 a surface alteration zone with micro lineaments NorthSouth that corresponds at the emplacement of a dike which has been totally replaced by quartz and pervasive silicification in stockwork form (“STW”) and halo’s with STW of quartz in the limestone unit.
Peter Hawley continues, “We are systematically taking what was previously thought of as simple E-W high grade structure and re-evaluating, with numerous successes to date, in order to develop our new concept which is seen below in the “Plan View of Drill Station Locations over IP Anomalies”.
Over the next few drill holes to test the blue sky potential in the north of the Property should add to the new data base as we start to dial in the focus of the remaining drill program. With the Company well funded we will continue to explore all targets as they present themselves.”
The Company has completed drill holes SM20-01 – 11 for a total of approximately 2,600 meters of the ongoing 8,000 meter drill program completed to date. Holes SM20-8B and SM20-10, 11 have been sampled and submitted to ALS Chihuahua Laboratory for analysis. Hole SM20-12 is currently in progress.

Xali Gold Corp.(TSXV:XGC) (“Xali Gold” and/or the “Company”) is pleased to advise that permit applications have been submitted for the Mexico Mines Tailings Project in El Oro, Mexico. The permits are to allow both the transportation and re-processing of the Mexico Mine tailings at a new plant site located just 5 kilometers from the current location. Sun River Gold “SRG” and their Mexican subsidiary, Remediacion Rio Sol “RRS”, will be conducting all of the work on the tailings as part of an option agreement to acquire the Tailings Project and Xali Gold’s subsidiary, Minera CCM El Oro Jales.
A land package comprising 25 hectares has been purchased for the new plant site and the re-processing plant is expected to be operational within 12 months from receiving permits. Extensive laboratory testing has been performed, which was critical in completing design work for the plant and preparing detailed planning documents.
“We are very excited with the work that SRG has completed to advance the Tailings Project,” says Joanne Freeze, President and CEO of Xali Gold. “There have been some delays due to government closures during the COVID pandemic, but the project is now moving forward and we are very excited to the re-processing getting into operation.”
In addition to laboratory test work, SRG has also completed the following work in preparation for the operation:
Design of the plant site
Mine plan of tailings indicating extraction levels over the years
Developed a contour map demonstrating resulting topography of municipal land once tailings are removed
Engaged power contractor to upgrade and extend power lines to site
Secured access across private land for roads and power lines
Secured access to water from local sources
Xali Gold’s subsidiary, CCM El Oro Jales, has an agreement with the municipality of El Oro which provides the Company the right to recover all available gold and silver from the Mexico Mines tailings deposit and pay to the Municipality of El Oro an 8% Net Profits Interest (“NPI”). Xali Gold will also retain the first US$1.5M from the 8% NPI payable to the Municipality.
SRG has the option to acquire 100% of the Tailings Project by making staged payments totalling US$500,000 (paid), bringing the tailings into commercial production within 36 months of the effective date of the option agreement, and granting to the Company a 5% NPI, Life of Mine royalty as well as the Municipalities 8% NPI on production from the properties. The 36 month term has been extended for 6 months providing that SRG demonstrates sufficient progress during each 3 month period.

Glacial overburden sampling program identified a second placer to hardrock property
Holds the potential for new gold discovery in Southern Quebec
Similar geological model to flagship Saint-Simon-les-Mines Beauce Gold property where fault line is on strike of historical placer gold deposit
Beauce Gold Fields (TSXV: BGF) (Champs D’Or en Beauce),(“BGF”), is pleased to announce the results of its glacial overburden sampling program of 31 placer to hardrock properties staked throughout southern Quebec. The highest return from a 20kg sample came from the Megantic property returning 10 grams per ton of placer gold from a sand & gravel bank that crosses the Bella Fault line.
Patrick Levasseur, President and CEO of Beauce Gold Fields said, “We are very excited that our sampling program has allowed us to identified a second placer to hardrock property that holds the potential for new gold discoveries in Southern Quebec.” Mr. Levasseur added: “The Megantic property holds a similar geological model to the company’s flagship Saint-Simon-les-Mines Beauce Gold property whereby a major geological fault line follows along strike the historical placer gold deposit. We look forward to investigating these anomalies further this summer.”
Between October and December 2020, the Company collected 71, 20kg overburden samples from sand and gravel pits found on 31 prospective placer to hardrock properties staked throughout southern Quebec (press release January 12, 2021). The objective was to identify placer gold anomalies in order to potentially trace their origins back to a lode gold deposit. A second objective was to identify sand & gravel banks of good size with the potential of holding interesting gold values for possible placer gold mining. Of all the samples taken, properties which recorded grades greater than 0.1 g /t Au were retained for further exploration.
RESULTS OF THE 2020 OVERBURDEN SURVEY
The 71 samples were processed by ExploLab in Val D’Or Quebec. Each sample of about 20kg was sifted through various mesh sizes to remove coarse materials. Coarse gold was recovered using various gravimetric methods. The concentrates were sent to Act Labs for analysis. (Disclosure : ExploLab is owned and operated by a Director of the Company).
With the exception of thePozer River and Lac Etchemin samples, the samples which revealed interesting gold grades came from the Mégantic region. Several anomalous samples are located near the Bella fault which crosses the Ditton, Chartierville, Chesam and the Bergeron River sectors of the Megantic property.
