Homerun Resources Inc. announced that it has received results from a sampling and mapping program on its Tatooine Silica Project, located near Brisco, British Columbia, Canada. Results from the program identified two new distinct, structurally repeated units of the Mount Wilson Quartzite Formation, one of which measures 170 metres in thickness and at least 300 metres along strike, with an average grade of 98.8% SiO2 from outcrop sampling. These newly identified quartzite units lie to the east of the existing Brisco Pit, which historically produced a total of 62,450 tonnes of quartzite silica.

A white, highly pure quartzite bed of the Mount Wilson Formation was mapped to be 170 metres thick, striking 315-320deg (NW) and dipping steeply between 82-86deg. Outcrop exposure is exceptional, with mapped outcrop areas measuring from 5 metres to over 100 metres in diameter and ranging from very hard on fresh surfaces to moderately friable in areas of more intense weathering. Contacts mapped along the road at the bottom of the valley confirm the thickness of the quartzite bed to be approximately 170 metres, bounded to the southwest by dolomite and to the northeast by shale.

Strike extent has been confirmed uphill to the northwest to be at least 300 metres, with the unit clearly continuing towards the top of the mountain, a distance of approximately 1.5 kilometres from the edge of the confirmed zone. Mapping was not conducted on the southeastern side of the valley, but based on field observations and satellite imagery, the unit appears to continue onward to the southeast. Out of 28 outcrop samples taken over a 300m x 170m area within the newly discovered zone, 27 samples yielded an average of 98.80% SiO2, with a range of 97.56% to 99.19% SiO2.

24 out of 27 samples yielded greater than 98.56% SiO2.
