Starcore Announces New Drilling Begins
on New Gold Target at El Creston in Opodepe, Sonora State, Mexico.
Vancouver, B.C. – Starcore International Mines Ltd. (TSX: SAM) (“Starcore” or “the Company”) is
pleased to announce the start of DDH exploration on its MEZTLI 4 and TEOCUITLA claims located in
Opodepe, Sonora, Mexico (see Fig.1). This first stage explores five different veins that were discovered after
more than eight months of geological works with more than 2000 samples taken (see Fig. 2), and assays and
metallurgical tests done (Fig. 3), the results of which formed the direction of the current exploration program
(see Fig. 4).
As reported in its news release of August 17, 2021, the Opodepe project represents a three-dimensional
prospect for Starcore with possibilities as a moly deposit, or as a property with gold showings, and thirdly as
a project with the potential for copper porphyry at depth. These concessions of 11,364 hectares (the
MEZTLI 4 claims) have never been explored for precious metals. With the acquisition of 3,087 hectares
northwest of the MEZTLI 4 claims (the TEOCUITLA concessions), Starcore now has a total of 14,451
hectares to explore, with five veins identified thus far for the initial stage of drilling.
