Showcase Minerals Inc. announced that it has identified two promising broad targets that can be investigated with drilling at its Dixie Flats-North Star Project located in Nevada. These targets incorporate geologic information from 53 drillholes, localized geologic mapping, Controlled Source Audio Magnetotelluric (CSAMT) surveys, GTI NuSeis 2D active seismic, gravity surveys with over 828 gravity stations, and surface sampling. The two broad targets are situated along two major geologic structures and the interface of the Webb Mudstone and Devils Gate limestone, which is the primary source of mineralization at Dixie Flats.

Historic mineralization at this contact within the project boundary has been favorable. With the combination of new geophysical work and synthesis of historic work, confidence has increased around the location of drill exploration targets. Expected program milestones are expanding known mineralization along trend with Orla Mining Ltd.'s Dark Star Gold Deposit, consistent with the newly identified CSAMT resistivity anomaly.

The drill program will also better define the location of the mineralized ore bearing structures, which can be incorporated into future lithologic and structural models. The CSAMT anomaly splits into a potentially second mineralized bearing cross-cutting structure, and drill targets are planned to expand this zone of potential mineralization laterally along this newly identified local cross-cutting structure.
