Last week, Sun Metals announced final results from the 2018 diamond drill program at Stardust, and that the company believes the program was successful in identifying a major mineralized pathway leading toward the heart of a high-grade system.
The intersection in one of the drill holes returned a 100.00 m interval of 2.51% copper, 3.03 g/t gold, and 52.5 g/t silver for a 4.99% Copper Equivalent (CuEq) providing a robust target for further exploration, Sun Metals reported.
