("Starr Peak" or the "Company") (TSXV: STE) (OTCQX: STRPF) is pleased to announce plans to drill the deep target at Normetmar resulting from the 2022 BHEM1 investigation. This target is positioned underneath Normetmar mineralization upper two zones, approximately 900 meters to the West of the past-producing Normétal Mine (10.1Mt @ 2.15% Cu, 5.12% Zn, 0.55 g/t Au, 45.25 /t Ag), located in the Abitibi Greenstone Belt of Québec.Main target description:Deep hole STE-22-123-W1 was drilled parallel to the favourable horizon down to a depth of 1,850 meters vertical and intercepted sulfides along with the favourable mine sequence. Geophysic BHEM1 survey revealed a new untested anomaly (P123-W1.) centralised at a vertical depth of 1,550 meters and characterized by a mid-conductance of 150 siemens and dimensions of 150 meters wide by 400 meters long. This anomaly plate is the probable continuity of the mineralized system at depth underneath the historical mining drift from Normétal to Normetmar (Level 1,270m). (Figure 1)In comparison for the mineralization continuity, the past producing Normétal historical mine has been exploited down to a depth of 2,400m and the mineralization system, historically described as richer in copper at depth and not ending completely at the bottom. See below Figure 1 showing the localization of the deep anomaly. Follow-up drill holes will be performed directly from the deep hole, optimizing drilling meters needed.Johnathan More, Chairman and CEO of Starr Peak commented, "This follow up drill program underneath the Normetmar Deep Zone is an absolute must considering the past historic content of the Normetal mine. If we look at the upper zones drilled we are seeing striking similarities in grade and thickness to the past producing mine. The past producing mine produced world class copper grades at these deeper depths and therefore we have tremendously increased our view that the anomaly we w...
