About RedStar Gold Corp.
Redstar is a junior exploration company focused on high-grade gold exploration in North America. In Alaska, the Company is exploring the 100% owned high-grade Unga Gold Project. The Unga Gold Project contains several high-grade gold/silver vein systems, two of which, Apollo & Sitka were sites of historic high-grade gold production and hosts Alaska's first underground gold mine. The Company completed an eight hole, 1,500 metre diamond drill program in May 2015 on the Shumagin Gold Zone which yielded several very high gold grade intersections, such as 202g/t Au over 1.9 m and 35.3g/t Au over 2m. This drill program demonstrated continuity of the Shumagin Gold Zone at depth and along strike.
Redstar has a portfolio of eleven (11) properties in Nevada located along and within many of the gold producing trends. In 2005 Redstar acquired AngloGold Ashanti's entire Nevada database after AngloGold redirected its exploration focus from North America to South America. Following the purchase of the database and over several years Redstar assembled the current portfolio of properties. Redstar is currently seeking suitable partners to advance its Nevada portfolio.
Redstar also owns 30% of the Newman Todd Gold Project, in Red Lake, Ontario, Canada. Newman Todd is a high-grade gold discovery along a 1.8 km corridor within the Newman Todd Structure (NTS). The gold mineralization in the NTS remains open along strike and at depth.
On Behalf of the Board of Directors,
Peter A. Ball, President and CEO
