(TSXV: BAU) (FSE: 5WP0) (OTCQB: BAUFF) (\"Blue Star\" or the \"Company\") is pleased to provide results from an additional eight (8) drill holes from the 2021 exploration program at its Ulu Project located in the High Lake Greenstone Belt, Nunavut. Results from ten (10) drill holes remain outstanding.Highlights from the recently completed drill program:Central Zone fence: Central-C (21BSG010) returned 5.21 g/t gold over 3.00 metres approximately 50 metres vertically below surfaceAxis Zone returns continuous anomalous values from modelled structure adjacent to the underground workings; 21BSG009 returns 2.51 g/t gold over 3.00 metresAxis/Central zone returns gold values at a similar geochemically defined contact as the one that hosts the Flood Zone Deposit; 21BSG015 returned 3.80 g/t gold over 0.79 metresPotential important new targeting tool identified: Geochemical sampling results have identified high, moderate, and low titanium basalts (high-Ti, mod-Ti, low-Ti) at Ulu. The SW dipping Flood Zone deposit is hosted in a high angle structure juxtaposing the high-Ti basalt unit with the mod-Ti basalt on the west limb of the Ulu anticline. The NE dipping Central \"C\" Zone is found at the faulted contact between the high-Ti and mod-Ti units on the east limb of the foldThe recognition that the host structures for gold mineralization occur at faulted contacts between lithochemically distinct mafic flows provides a deeper understanding of structural controls on mineralization and allows for more focused targeting for future drill programsCEO, Grant Ewing, stated, \"It is very encouraging that the technical team continues to find new and innovative ways to more effectively assess the multitude of target areas over our extensive district scale landholdings. High precision lithogeochemistry is unraveling the volcanic stratigraphy and linked with our structural interpretation, we now have a much better understanding of the controls of the major mineralized breaks. The current priority sequence is initially testing targets near our high-grade Flood Zone gold deposit, and gradually stepping out to more regional priority target zones. We loo...
