25 April 2024

Vancouver, British Columbia – April 25, 2024: Blue Star Gold Corp. (TSXV: BAU) (OTCQB: BAUFF) (FSE: 5WP0) ("Blue Star" or the "Company") announces the mobilization date for the 2024 exploration program at its Ulu Gold Project and Roma Project in the Kitikmeot region of Nunavut (Figure 1). 

Highlights 

  • Mobilization of discovery drill program at Ulu and Roma Projects in May 2024
  • Gold focus, with a component of the program dedicated to discovery of critical mineral deposits
  • High-priority targets to be drilled based on potential for discovery, scale, and proximity to existing resources
    • Evaluation of higher-grade, larger targets within and near the Flood deposit
    • Initial drill test of the 2023 Mikigon surface discovery, a new style of mineralization at Ulu
    • Testing mineralized structures and targets in the trend that hosts the satellite Gnu deposit
  • Several other high-potential targets will be evaluated (both gold and critical minerals)
  • Geophysical and lithogeochemical surveys, and continued mapping and prospecting to refine and prioritize the substantial pipeline of targets

“Following a successful 2023 exploration program that advanced our robust pipeline of resource growth targets and led to the discovery of new prospects, we are excited to launch our 2024 exploration campaign in May,” said Grant Ewing, CEO of Blue Star Gold. “The emphasis will be on increasing the resource base at or near existing deposits and given the large number of mineral showings on our properties which support the high discovery potential of the region, we will also focus on new discoveries. With gold trading near all-time highs, this is an opportune time to track the progress of Blue Star as we continue to unlock the potential of our highly prospective projects.”

Exploration Program Plans

Blue Star plans to initiate its 2024 exploration program in May using mapping and prospecting along with geological and geophysical surveys to refine and prioritize targets from our abundant pipeline of prospects.

Two drills will be deployed in July, with a minimum of 4,000 metres planned. Numerous targets will be drill tested during the program including:
