Eagle Star Continues to Intersect High-Grade Phosphate at Bomfim's Santiago Target With 36 Metres @ 7.46%, Including 8 Metres @ 18.78% P2O5

18.12.2013  |  Marketwired
VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA -- (Marketwired - Dec 18, 2013) - Eagle Star Minerals Corp., (TSX VENTURE:EGE) (PINKSHEETS:ELGSF) (FRANKFURT:E6R) ("Eagle Star" or "the Company") is very pleased to announce additional excellent results from another drill hole in part of the Santiago Target resource delineation drill program. Santiago is a former Vale owned property that borders the MbAC Fertilizers ("MbAC") "Canabrava" discovery and one of nine (9) targets identified by Eagle Star thus far to host high-grade mineralization at surface within the Bomfim Project. Drill hole STW-RC-07 intersected from SURFACE, 36m @ 7.46% P2O5 which includes 21m @ 10.19% P2O5, 8m @ 18.78% P2O5, and 3m @ 27.43% P2O5. The mineralization in hole STW-RC-07 remains open at depth. Lab results for additional holes have been received and are currently being reviewed by Eagle Star staff.

"Throughout my many years of phosphate exploration I have spent countless hours interpreting drill hole data from some of the top deposits in Brazil, The combination of results I have seen to date from Santiago have me holding this target in very high regard and I believe it presents a very unique opportunity for Eagle Star." Commented Professor Amorim, Eagle Star's Senior Exploration Advisor.

In a series of recent news releases (dated Nov. 25th & Dec. 9th 2013), the Company announced significant drill results from both the STP and STW domains within the Santiago Target. The drill holes from the STP area are located approximately 250 metres from MbAC Fertilizers' ("MbAC") claim boundary and have confirmed that the Canabrava mineralization located on MbAC's Itafos property extends into the Santiago Target. The Canabrava deposit is described by MbAC as containing 20.4 Mt indicated at an average grade of 5.53% P2O5 and 3.7 Mt inferred at an average grade of 4.94% P2O5. (MbAC's Technical Report dated March 27, 2013 available at www.sedar.com). The drill holes reported in the STW domain are located approximately 1.5 km northeast of the STP area. The holes are positioned in and around outcrops of high-grade mineralization that has been visually identified through detailed mapping and found to extend over a 600 x 300 metre area.

Hole ID From (m) To (m) Length (m) P2O5% Comments
STW-RC-07 0.00 36.00 36.00 7.46 entire hole; open at depth
including 0.00 21.00 21.00 10.19 mixed phosphorite & siltstone
including 0.00 8.00 8.00 18.78 both phosphorite units
including 0.00 3.00 3.00 27.43 upper phosphorite unit

Longest intervals were calculated using a 2.4% P2O5 cut-off, allowing enclosed intervals of one or two samples below cut-off and include a combination of phosphorite and mineralized siltstone. High-grade mineralization in this news release is defined as ≥10% P2O5.

The reverse circulation ("RC") drilling program for the Santiago Target is scheduled for a total of 160 holes. The results of 10 drill holes have now been received and their highlights released. All drilling has been with vertical holes and drill widths are believed to represent the true width of the mineralized zone. Chips from reverse circulation drilling are collected in bags for each one (1) meter interval. Chips are logged at the drill site and a representative split is taken on site for submission to the analytical laboratory.

The Company implements industry recognized QAQC methods at the project. The Qualified Person has reviewed the QAQC results and inspected procedures during a previous site visit but has not otherwise verified the data in this news release. Intertek Laboratories (Intertek) of Sao Paulo Brazil, was used for analytical work reported in this news release. Intertek is part of an international group of certified (ISO 9001:2008) laboratories recognized in the industry for geochemical and agricultural testing. Determination of P2O5 was done by Intertek method XR55L which prepared the sample with a lithium tetraborate fusion followed by XRF analysis. Intertek is independent of the Company.
