The 3 Reasons Why Arctic Star Is A World Class, Small Cap Diamond Explorer

Arctic Star Exploration (ADD:TSXV / ASDZF:OTCQB / 82A1.F:FRA) is in the diamond finding business.

The Company owns 100% of its flagship Timantti Diamond Project in Finland, where Arctic Star has discovered three diamondiferous kimberlites that may represent the first finds in a large kimberlite field. If you don’t know what a kimberlite is, keep drilling down and see below because this is truly exciting.

The project is located on the same geological belt as the Grib Diamond Mine in Russia, just 450 kms away. The Grib mine is one of the largest diamond mines in the world and was discovered by a team led by Arctic Star Director Roy Spencer.  Keep drilling down to see more about him.

For those investors who have a little more experience and find themselves asking Why Finland? You should know that Finland was ranked as the World’s #2 mining jurisdiction in the world by the Fraser Institute 2020. In addition to its flagship project in Finland, the Company also controls diamond exploration properties in Nunavut (Stein) and the Northwest Territories of Canada (Diagras and Redemption).

But the real secret of Arctic Star is that it has tremendous potential to revolutionize the way in which Diamonds are discovered – and become a pioneer in the exploration industry – by finding diamonds in a place where no previous explorer has thought to do so. More than just a wild theory, Arctic Star has the team to back it up.

Here are the 3 things you need to know

1. World Class Diamond Finders

Arctic Star exploration has a highly experienced diamond exploration team previously responsible for numerous world class diamond mine discoveries.  The team is led by Buddy Doyle who originally discovered Diavik Mine, Canada’s largest diamond mine in terms of carat production. Diavik’s exceptional grades make it one of the most valuable diamond mines in the world.  Diavik is located in the Northwest Territories of Canada, where Arctic Star has 2 of their diamond properties.

Few geologists have seen 2 projects from discovery through to decision to mine. Mr. Doyle is recognized by his peers in the exploration industry as an authority on diamond exploration and kimberlite geology, and has authored/co-authored numerous papers on these subjects. He was awarded the 2007 Hugo Dummitt Award for excellence in Diamond exploration.

Roy Spencer – If that wasn’t enough, the geologist who discovered the multi-billion-dollar Grib Diamond Mine in Russia (see above). which is just 450 KMs away from Arctic Star’s project in Finland, has now joined Arctic’s Board of Directors!  Clearly, the Arctic Star team has the credibility necessary to put forth a new thesis on how to find diamonds. 

 2. Brand New Exploration Model To Find Diamonds 

In order to find diamonds, you need to first find Kimberlites. What are Kimberlites? Essentially, they are the rocks which contain diamonds. These kimberlite rocks are found underground in vertical structures known as kimberlite pipes. To illustrate in simple terms, see this basic image of a kimberlite pipe with kimberlite rocks inside of it.  

Kimberlite pipes are the biggest source of diamonds today. When exploration companies go looking for kimberlites, the industry standard for finding them is to look for magnetic signatures. This is done by taking a magnetic survey from the air and/or ground. with a device called a magnetometer.  Now, most of you won’t understand what you are looking at – but here is an example of one of the company’s magnetic surveys on its Canadian Diagras property.

The most important thing to understand is that the industry looks for magnetic signatures ….. but Buddy Doyle and the accomplished Arctic Star team have developed a NON MAGNETIC THESIS.  They believe they will find economic diamonds by locating Kimberlite that do not have a magnetic signature where previous explores sought not to look. Arctic in a sense is exploring for diamonds the opposite way the industry traditionally does. Arctic acquired property big mining company’s dropped, because they looked at them one way. Arctic is looking differently and success is occurring quickly for this small, yet accomplished exploration outfit. There are already multiple drill ready targets in 2 countries using this new way of looking for diamonds.

Arctic offers multiple opportunities in 2 countries to turn the Diamond Industry on notice with a discovery.

3. Arctic Star Has Two Diamond Projects Ready To Verify Its Non-Magnetic Theory

Arctic has 2 diamond projects on which to verify its theory: Diagras in Northwest Territories of Canada and Timantti in Finland, where early exploration searching for Non-Magnetic signatures has already yielded multiple new diamond target

A.  Diagras is next to Diavik (Canada’s largest diamond mine) and is drill ready to prove Buddy’s theory. Arctic has plans to drill in 2021

B. Timantti in Finland has 3 separate target areas and 6 targets altogether identified through non-magnetic signatures as a means to find diamonds and further excel Buddy’s theory, it is the company’s goal to drill test in 2021

If Buddy Doyle and the Arctic Star team are correct it will create a new discovery process for understanding how diamonds are brought to surface in areas previous explorers cared not to look. Arctic Star has the potential to create multiple discoveries and copycat companies trying to duplicate their success.

However, there is only one Buddy Doyle and Roy Spencer, which is why Arctic Star is the one Diamond Exploration Company every investor should be aware of.

VIDEO – Fabled #Silver #Gold $FCO.ca Measuring by the Kilogram at Santa Maria Project, Drilling 10 Ounces of Silver over 6 Meters $RDU.ca $KTN.ca $GMBXF $EDR.ca

Posted by AGORACOM-JC at 5:49 PM on Thursday, February 4th, 2021

Fabled controls 100% of the Santa Maria Gold and Silver property in Mexico, a high grade underground mine with a rich history of mining, but with very little modern exploration or drilling.

President & CEO Peter Hawley discusses the second hole at Santa Maria that is returning really high grade silver. Fabled is in the midst of an 8000 meter drill program and is batting 100% with the most recent return of 10 ounces of silver over 6 meters.

The next hole will be the deepest ever on the property.

Take a seat, sit back and discover why Fabled Silver Gold is the next SmallCap #Silver company to own.

Fabled $FCO.ca Drills 3.3 Meters of 561.20 g/t Ag and 0.90 g/t Au within 6.0 Meters Grading 323.88 g/t Ag and 0.54 g/t Au at Santa Maria $RDU.ca $KTN.ca $GMBXF $EDR.ca

  • Over 10 ounces of silver over 6 meters.
  • 2nd hole of 8000m program
  • Followed up with SM20-03, designed to be the deepest hole ever drilled on the property.

Fabled Silver Gold Corp. (TSXV: FCO) (FSE: 7NQ) (“Fabled” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce the second diamond drill hole from the on-going 8,000 meter drill program on the Santa Maria Property in Parral, Mexico, with assays from two additional holes pending.

Peter J. Hawley, CEO and President, remarks, “As expected, the sulphide contents of the Santa Maria vein and structure has increased and intercepted over 10 ounces of silver over 6 meters. These exceptional high- grade results intercepted at -145 meters vertically below surface will be followed up by hole SM20-03 which was designed to hit the Santa Maria structure at a vertical depth of -350 meters below surface which will be the deepest hole ever drilled on the property.”

Peter Hawley continues, “The data being obtained from this fence of drill holes will not only target adding silver ounces to the overall resource but also allow us to interpret and model the behavior of this robust mineralized system for future drill hole success.”

St. Georges Eco $SX.ca $SXOOF Altair Provides Update on Lithium Extraction and Battery Recycling Technology $NNX.ca $OM.ca $ICM.ca $ATAO

Posted by AGORACOM at 8:43 AM on Tuesday, January 26th, 2021
  • The two companies to jointly develop a patentable industrial scale process for Electric Vehicle Lithium-ion battery (LIB) recycling.

Altair International Corp. (the “Company” or “Altair”) (OTC: ATAO) is pleased to provide an update on its previously announced partnership with St-Georges Eco-Mining Corp. (CSE: SX) (OTC: SXOOF) (FSE: 85G1) (“St-Georges”) a Canadian public company engaged in the development of new Lithium extraction technologies.

On December 1, 2020 the two companies entered into a Binding agreement that would allow Altair access to St-Georges’ patent-pending Lithium processing technology for Altair’s Nevada based Stonewall project and most importantly bring together the two companies to jointly develop a patentable industrial scale process for Electric Vehicle Lithium-ion battery (LIB) recycling.

As the global Electric Vehicle (EV) market heats up over the coming decade, the demand for battery metals is expected to outpace current production. Even with increased energy density and charge cycles, Lithium based batteries for EVs, laptops, phones and other mobile devices will create cumulative waste challenges both in the environmental footprint of production and end-of-life LIB disposal.

Altair and St-Georges recognize that new optimized recycling technologies will offer valuable solutions to both a waste-management and battery metal supply. Selective, economic and responsible metal extraction of spent LIBs will be an integral part of the multi-billion dollar green economy and play a crucial part in the future of EV dominance of the automotive sector.

Fabled Silver Gold Corp. (TSXV: FCO) (FSE: 7NQ) (“Fabled” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce initial diamond drill results from the on-going 8,000-meter drill program on the Santa Maria Property in Parral, Mexico, with assays from two additional holes pending.

Peter J. Hawley, CEO and President remarks, “We are quite excited with the results from our first drill hole drilled to the east of the last underground workings and the exceptional wide intersection of 68.6 meters of continuous silver in shallow oxide mineralization. Within this broad zone, 20 meters reported 0.35 g/t Au, 106.29 g/t Ag and within this 20 meters, widths grading 146 g/t Ag, 238 g/t Ag and 151 g/t Ag were intersected (See Table 1 for widths and values). Drill holes SM20-02 and SM20-03 are drilled on the same section with the target being the sulphide intercept of this broad hydrothermal breccia zone, which is typically higher in grade due to metal values not being leached out by surface ground waters as commonly seen in oxide zones. The data being obtained from this fence of drill holes will not only target adding silver ounces to the overall resource but also allow us to interpret and model the behavior of this robust mineralized system for future drill hole success.”

Fabled Silver Gold Corp. (@Fabled_FCO) | Twitter

Fabled Silver Gold controls 100% of the Santa Maria Gold and Silver property in Mexico. It is a high grade underground mine with a rich mining history and a Silver Equivalent 43-101 with 3.2million ounces Indicated and 1.1m inferred.

Now as far as silver projects go 3.2M ounces isn’t very big but when serial mine finder and industry stalwart Peter Hawley was presented with it in 2016, he came out of retirement saying “it was almost too good to be true” and “this is the one I’ve been looking for.

Santa Maria’s best historical intercept to date, reported 11meters of 1,672 g/t Silver & 3.74 g/t gold and ending in mineralization. Moreover, a 2018 PEA is very supportive at current market prices.

Santa Maria has never been systematically, or explored thoroughly with modern methods, until now.   FCO is currently conducting their first drill program to support the 43-101 and expects results to start flowing right into June.

It is definitely in a great “neighbourhood” in the mining friendly jurisdiction of Parral which has produced over 250M oz silver.  Moreover, multiple major operators in the vicinity, including three toll mills within a 20 km distance.

Watch this great first of many anticipated interviews with CEO Peter Hawley.

Beauce Gold Fields $BGF.ca Buys Missing Drill Logs Adding 344 Never Reported Drill Holes $KG.ca $OSK.ca $TIG.ca $GSR.ca $ATC.ca $WGO.ca $OR.ca $KGC.ca

  • Acquired never before published exploration data from 1957 to 1965
  • This effectively triples the overburden drilling data that will give Beauce unprecedented overview of the placer channel

Beauce Gold Fields (TSXV: BGF) (Champs D’Or en Beauce), (“BGF”), is pleased to announce that it has acquired, from a Private Collector, a trove of never before published exploration data by the Beauce Placer Mining company that operated from 1957 to 1965 on the company’s Beauce Gold property located in Saint-Simon-les-Mines, Quebec.

Patrick Levasseur, President and CEO of Beauce Gold Fields said, “This effectively triples the overburden drilling data that will give us an unprecedented overview of the placer channel.” Mr. Levasseur added: “The data will have a profound impact in orientating our future rock drilling program to uncover the source of the gold placers.”

Figure 1: Drill Hole Map 1958, St-Gustave Road and Drill Operator

Active from 1957 to 1965, the Beauce Placer Company was the largest placer gold mining operation in eastern North America. Yet, there was very little documentation available of the work completed during that period. Historical reports found on the Government of Quebec’s geology and mining data registry are but brief summaries and observations. Missing were drill hole logs and subsequent results, geophysics data, field surveys, compilation maps and for that matter, all aspects pertaining to the dredge mining operation itself. These have now been found.

According to the Collector, the documents originated from a field office the Beauce Placer Mining Company occupied in Beauceville, Quebec. The office was abandoned in the 1970s leaving behind filing cabinets full of documents. The documents were given to the Collector, a businessman from St-Simon-les-Mine. Being an avid antiques collector, he recognized the importance of preserving historical documentation pertaining to his town’s heritage.

Document Highlights

– Total 344 drill logs from 7-inch wide overburden drill holes down to bedrock:

  • Gilbert River (St-Simon-les-Mine) – 252 holes
  • Famine River – 40 holes
  • Chaudière River – 36 holes
  • Riviere Du Loup – 12 holes
  • Ruisseau Des Meule – 4 holes

– Geophysics
– Claims and property agreements
– Land surveys
– Documentation regarding the operation of the dragline and the Yuba dredge
– Daily back office operation
– Gold receipts from the mint

  • Staked a portfolio of prospective placer to hard rock gold anomalies throughout southern Quebec
  • The Mégantic property extends for at least 30 km along the axis of the Bella Fault.

Beauce Gold Fields (Champs D’Or en Beauce) (TSXV: BGF), (“BGF”), is pleased to announce that it has acquired through map staking, a portfolio of prospective placer to hard rock gold anomalies throughout southern Quebec. The Beauce, the Megantic and Quebec’s Eastern Townships are considered to be the most suitable regions for the discovery of gold deposits near or under former gold placers.

Patrick Levasseur, President and CEO of Beauce Gold Fields said, “Just as major gold companies have found new value in storied placer gold districts of BC’s Cariboo and the Kondike in Yukon, we see untapped potential in Quebec’s placer gold properties.” Mr. Levasseur added: “For example, 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 historical placer gold deposits.”

The Mégantic property is limited to the southwest by the American border of New Hampshire and to the northeast by Lac Mégantic. The property extends for at least 30 km along the axis of the Bella Fault. It is divided into four areas: the Ditton, the Mining Brook, the Chesham and Bergeron rivers.

The Mégantic property is located at the foot of the granite intrusion of Mont Mégantic. It partly occupies the Compton Formation composed of graphitic and pelitic metasedimentary rocks of Siluro-Devonian age. These sedimentary rocks are in discordant contact in the center of the terrain with the volcanic facies (basalts, andesites and dacites) of the Siluro-Devonian Formation of the Frontenac Formation. The Bella fault, which is the major structural element of the Mégantic property, is in contact between the Compton and Frontenac Formations. Observations at Mount Saddle suggest several intrusive phases that would be favourable to the establishment of gold mineralization.

  • Mechanized excavations of the overburden exposed the bedrock before it plunges deeper into the historical placer gold channel.
  • Geological mapping and structural study to the east and west of Rang St-Gustave road will provide requisite data to optimize the drill program

Montreal, Quebec–(Newsfile Corp. – January 6, 2021) – Beauce Gold Fields (Champs D’Or en Beauce) (TSXV: BGF) (“BGF”), is pleased to announce that it has completed its trenching and rock outcrop exploration program in the Rang St-Gustave sector of the gold property located in St-Simon-Les-Mines in the Beauce region of southern Quebec.

Patrick Levasseur, President and CEO of Beauce Gold Fields said, “The Rang St-Gustave area was the site of the only major placer mining and dredging operation in eastern North America. In this same sector, the company discovered a major geological fault which could explain, in part, the gold bearing structures.” Mr. Levasseur added: “The data provided by the survey and sampling of the trenches will better guide our future rock drilling program to uncover the source of the gold placers.”

Fabled Silver Gold $FCO.ca Announces Surface Sampling Over IP Anomalies Results In Three Areas of Highly Anomalous Silver Values and Update on Current Drilling $GGD.ca $EDR.ca $RDU.ca $KTN.ca

Posted by AGORACOM at 7:42 AM on Wednesday, January 6th, 2021

Fabled Silver Gold Corp. (TSXV: FCO) (FSE: 7NQ) (“Fabled” or the “Company“) is pleased to announce the completion of the first ever follow up ground sampling program to evaluate the IP geophysical anomalies on the Santa Maria Property in Parral, Mexico. Fabled is also pleased to provide an update on progress made on its initial 8,000 meter drill program.

Peter J. Hawley, CEO and President, remarks, “The results of the follow up sampling of the IP anomalies have provided favorable silver results over all on anomalies sampled, of which certain results were a pleasant confirmation of not only the location of the IP anomaly but also exhibiting silver grades on surface even though the anomaly is at depth. It is not common to sample almost one ounce of silver over a buried IP Anomaly.”

Of particular interest are two areas to the west and outside the new resource area. The first is anomaly IPSM-10 at the western sector of the property, where sample #816013 reported 29.8 g/t Ag. The anomaly is thought to represent the intersection of the northeast trending Peneto Vein located to the south west of the property and the intersection of the Santa Maria vein structures. Geophysical interpretation suggests it represents a shallow, thin body (“vein type”) response.

The second is located between IPSM-10 and the new resource trend and identified by IP anomaly IPSM-12 and sample #816007 which reported 14.2 g/t Ag and is thought to be the contact between the Santa Maria Vein trends and a felsic mineralized dike contact. Geophysical interpretation suggests a deep seated (>100 m) vein type response.

A total of 11 first priority IP targets have been delineated property wide (see Figure 1 below), which are in a generalized east – west direction. The geological team collected a total of 26 surface samples over all anomalies and nearby areas.

Figure 1: IP Anomalies on the Santa Maria Property with surface sample assay values and locations.

Drilling Update

The Company has completed two drill holes SM20-01 – 02 for a total of 396 metres. Holes 01 and 02 have been sampled and submitted to ALS Chihuahua Laboratory for analysis. Hole SM 20-03 is in progress. The focus of the program is to determine the true potential of the property, which is expected to take several months to complete.

Option Grants

Fabled also is pleased to announce that pursuant to its stock option plan it has granted 200,000 stock options to a consultant for the Company, each exercisable to acquire one common share of Fabled at an exercise price of $0.10 per common share until January 06, 2031. The stock options vest as to 25% on the date of grant, and as to 25% every 6 months until fully vested.

QA QC Procedure

Analytical results of sampling reported by Fabled Silver Gold represent surface rock samples submitted by Fabled Silver Gold staff directly to ALS Chemex, Chihuahua, Chihuahua, Mexico. Samples were crushed, split, and pulverized as per ALS Chemex method PREP-31, then analyzed for ME-ICP61 33 element package by four acid digestion with ICP-AES Finish. ME-GRA21 method for Au and Ag by fire assay and gravimetric finish, 30g nominal sample weight.

Over Limit Methods

For samples triggering precious metal over-limit thresholds of 10g/t Au or 200g/t Ag, the following is being used:

Au-GRA21 Au by fire assay and gravimetric finish with 30g sample.

Ag-GRA21 Ag by fire assay and gravimetric finish.

Fabled Silver Gold monitors QA/QC using commercially sourced standards and locally sourced blank materials inserted within the sample sequence at regular intervals.

About Fabled Silver Gold Corp.
