Vanstar Mining (VSR) has intercepted gold in the latest results from its Bousquet-Odyno Project.

The Quebec-based company intercepted up to 5.23 grams per tonne of gold over 21 metres, including 10.14 grams per tonne over 10.5 metres.

Vanstar is earning a 75-percent interest in the Bousquet-Odyno project located along the Cadillac Break in Quebec. The project is made up of 37 contiguous mining claims covering approximately 1,492 hectares. Most of the current drill holes targeted zones below historical holes and demonstrate that high grades continue at depth.

“This is our maiden drill program on the Bousquet-Odyno Project, and we are excited to see that high grades continue at depth below historical drilling on the project. This is a kilometric-sized gold system, and high-grade gold has historically been identified closer to surface. Today’s drill results targeted gold mineralization at a vertical depth of 275 m and are a significant step down from previous high-grade gold intercepts. I am enthusiastic about the potential to expand the known gold system with further drilling. As we know, the Abitibi gold belt is one of the most prolific gold systems globally, and deposits can start at surface and continue to depth for kilometres. We look forward to receiving further assay results from our drill program,” said President and CEO J.C. St-Amour.

Vanstar Mining is up 6.67 percent, trading at $0.40 at 1pm ET.
