Eagle Star Minerals Corp. announced that Pit-08 hand held XRF results have returned 11.08% P2O5 from surface to 5 meters depth, including 3 meters grading 13.11% P2O5. The mineralized interval is open at depth.

With this 650m step-out, results from Pit-08 indicate that the high-grade mineralized package should extend along a minimum strike of 1.2 kilometers. The results of Pits 1-7 have already demonstrated that the volume of high-grade mineralization discovered at Bomfim Hill is sizable. The XRF readings were done systematically following recommended procedures of the manufacturer.

The pits are being channel sampled at a meter basis and for each meter three readings are conducted to obtain an average grade. Pre analysis, the sample collected is homogenized, dried (using microwave oven) and manually crushed to fine grain. The composite grade for the 5 meters is reached by weighted averaging of the values obtained for each sample.

The handheld XRF analyzer is an Olympus Delta model and was calibrated according to Innov-X Systems in-house calibration procedure. The Company conducts field XRF analysis using industry recognized sample preparation and analysis protocols, and has conducted sufficient quality control using the XRF method to believe that although the method cannot be relied upon to have the equivalent precision and accuracy of a certified analytical laboratory, the results are of sufficient quality to direct exploration pending analytical laboratory confirmation.
