Highlights
- Glenstar Minerals has commenced Phase 1 reverse circulation drilling at the Wildhorse Project in Nevada.
- The company completed four drill holes at the Coca Cola Zone during the first week of the program.
- Drilling identified narrow intervals of alteration with local copper oxide mineralisation.
- Hole RTSRC-1 intersected oxide and sulfide mineralisation with quartz veinlets and silicification.
- Initial drilling at the Rattlesnake Zone indicates intersection of the main mineralised system in a downdip position.
Glenstar Minerals Inc. (CSE:GSTR) is advancing exploration at its Wildhorse Project in Nevada, with drilling activity now underway as part of a targeted effort to build geological understanding across key zones. As the program progresses, early-stage observations from multiple drill holes are beginning to shape the evolving picture of mineralisation across the project area.
Drilling Program in Motion
The Phase 1 reverse circulation drill program at the Wildhorse Project in Mineral County, Nevada, is currently in progress. Initial drilling activities began at the Coca Cola Zone, where four holes were completed during the first week of the planned three-week campaign. Following this, the drill rig was relocated to the Rattlesnake Zone, located approximately 1,600 feet to the northeast.
Early observations from the Coca Cola Zone indicated narrow intervals of alteration alongside localised copper oxide mineralisation. These findings provided initial geological context before the program shifted focus to the Rattlesnake Zone.
Rattlesnake Zone Findings
At the Rattlesnake Zone, drilling has returned multiple intervals of alteration and mineralisation. Hole RTSRC-1 intersected several multi-metre intervals of oxide alteration from surface down to 345 feet. Between 345 and 385 feet, a partially oxidised zone containing sulfide mineralisation, quartz veinlets, and silicification was encountered. Field identification noted the presence of chalcopyrite and fine-grained silver-grey minerals, with sulfide abundance estimated at around 5%.
Hole RTSRC-2 further highlighted the presence of mineralisation, with gossanous zones extending from surface to 215 feet. A 30-foot interval between 215 and 245 feet displayed intense oxide mineralisation accompanied by quartz veinlets. Based on these observations, the company indicated that drilling has intersected the main Rattlesnake mineralised zone in a downdip position approximately 320 feet east of known surface outcrops.
Ongoing Work and Next Steps
Upon completion, all collected samples will be submitted to Paragon Geochemical Inc. in Sparks, Nevada, for assay analysis. At this stage, all reported mineralisation intervals are based on downhole observations, and the company has noted that there is insufficient data to determine true widths.
Project Background and Geological Context
The Wildhorse Property spans 89 mineral claims covering approximately 1,780 acres in Mineral County, Nevada. The project was identified following a review of historical data, including records from a 1975 field examination. Evidence of historical workings suggests activity dating back to the late 1800s and early 1900s.
Preliminary geological assessments indicate the presence of east-dipping mineralised zones. Initial field sampling identified quartz veinlets containing more than 1 gram per tonne gold, 1% copper, and 6,100 ppm antimony. Additional observations of bismuth and tungsten in outcropping zones point toward a polymetallic system associated with an intrusive source.
Glenstar is progressing its Wildhorse Project through ongoing drilling, with early observations indicating oxide and sulfide mineralisation across key zones. As the program advances, upcoming assay results from Paragon Geochemical Inc. are expected to validate these findings and support further refinement of the geological model and future drill targeting.
