Starr Peak Exploration Ltd. announced positive results of a geophysical survey on the Main bloc of its NewMétal property ("NewMétal" or "the Property") covering the past-producing Normétal Mine, from which ~10.1M tonnes of 2.15% Cu, 5.12% Zn, 0.549 g/t Au, and 45.25 g/t Ag were produced (Boivin, 1988), and the Normetmar showing. Initial drilling reopened historical hole 96-30-16b allowing a geophysical borehole electromagnetic survey (BHEM) to be performed into this deep hole. Also, two additional historical holes (95-30-08 and 96-30-15) were surveyed.

Results from the geophysical surveyed holes returned three anomalies along the Normetmar downdip trend in depth. The deepest and strongest anomaly is characterized by a high conductance (1000 Siemens) which is interpreted has a thick conductor or a more conductive zone. The area of high conductance (135 x 75 metres) is untested and the geophysical BHEM survey results provide strong confidence into the drilling targets initially highlighted.
