Project Overview
The Western Star Project consists of intensely deformed, stratiform-type deposits consisting of siderite and mineralized quartz formations with pyrite, galena, and sphalerite. These mineralized zones are typically localized along steeply dipping limestone-chlorite schist contacts, representing a significant exploration opportunity in one of Canada’s most prolific mining districts.
