About Tichka Est Gold Project Project, Morocco

The Tichka Est gold project is comprised of seven permits aggregating 82 square kilometres located in

the High Atlas Mountain region of Morocco approximately 80 kilometres south-southwest of Marrakech.

To date Stellar has incurred just over USD $1.1 million of agreed exploration expenditures and identified

extensive gold mineralization within three structures.

The most extensive exploration has been along the B Zone structure within an approximately 1 km2 area

of the 82 km 2 total area of the Tichka Est Gold Project. Over the past years Stellar has built an 8.5 -

kilometer mountain access road, and conducted extensive mapping, sampling and trenching focussing

been discovered with much of the overall project area still unexplored or only superficially explored.
