Megastar Development Corp. to Purchase a 100% Interest in Cerro Minas Property, Mexico

"Given the extremely exciting results we have announced to date from our Yautepec property, the addition of this land is very compelling for us," said David M. Jones, exploration manager and director of Megastar Development. "Completely surrounded by our current land holdings, Cerro Minas displays similar epithermal characteristics to targets that we have already identified and, given our early-staged success, adding this land is a natural as we look to enlarge our foot-print in, what we believe, is a very prospective area."

The Cerro Minas Property lies within the Oaxaca epithermal Au-Ag belt, approximately 130 kilometers southeast of Oaxaca City, and 30 kilometers southeast of Gold Resource Corp.'s (NYSE American: GORO) operating Arista-Switchback mine (Au-Ag-Cu-Pb-Zn). The Property is an inlier to Megastar's principal Yautepec Project concession, and covers 5 kilometers strike length of highly prospective ground along a northwest trending caldera structural margin as reported in prior Megastar news releases (see July 16^th and August 22^nd, 2019). In addition, the Property contains polymetallic skarn-style mineralization (Ag-Au-Cu-Pb-Zn) that is the subject of historical reports by the Mexican Consejo de Recursos Minerales which document small-scale artisanal mining. With this agreement, Megastar has consolidated over 7 kilometers strike length of high potential targets for epithermal and skarn mineralization.
