Showcase Minerals Inc. announced that it is progressing with its next phased exploration plan at its Dixie Flats-North Star Property, located 21 air-miles south of the City of Elko in northeast Nevada. The current exploration phase will include data compilation and interpretation with the aim of delineating Carlin-type drill targets for follow-up exploration drilling. All drilling, geologic mapping, and geophysical data, including surface sampling, Controlled Source Audio Magnetotelluric (CSAMT) surveys, gravity surveys with over 828 gravity stations and GTI NuSeis 2D active seismic, will be used with localized geology maps to construct 3D structural and lithology models.

Intersections of major NNW-SSE and WSW-ENE structures will be identified, and drill targets will be highlighted where these intersections cut the Webb-Devils Gate limestone contact. The Dixie Flats-North Star Property (the "Property" or "Dixie Flats") is located on the east side of the Piñon Mountains, 21 air-miles south of the City of Elko in northeast Nevada. It is a combination of two claim blocks, the Dixie Flats group of claims and the North Star group of claims. The Property is comprised of a total of 236 total unpatented mineral claims on Federal land administered by the US Bureau of Land Management ("BLM").

The Property lies on the southern margin of the Carlin Trend, a northwest-trending belt of sediment-hosted gold deposits that makes up the greatest geographic concentration of gold deposits in North America, with reported production of more than 92.5 million ounces of gold since 1961 (Muntean, 2019). The Dixie Flats-North Star Property is underlain by rocks known to host gold mineralization on the Carlin Trend, and surface sampling has shown anomalous gold, silver, arsenic, antimony, and mercury levels in rock, soil, and biogeochemical samples from the Property, which is a characteristic geochemical signature of Carlin-Type gold deposits. Dixie-North Star is approximately three miles south of Newmont Mining Company's Emigrant Springs Mine, which finished production in 2018, and approximately 4.5 miles southeast of the past producing Rain Mine.

Both of these deposits are hosted in dissolution breccia zones at the contact between the Webb mudstone, the basal unit of the overlap assemblage, and the underlying Devils Gate limestone. Prior exploration on the Dixie-North Star Property has been focused on delineating this contact at depth, and discovering possible extensions to the regional structures controlling mineralization at the Rain and Emigrant Mines and their demonstrated extension to the Dixie-North Star Property. The information on the adjacent projects is taken from publicly available sources and is not necessarily indicative of the mineralization on the Dixie Flats-North Star Property.
