Heliostar Metals (HSTR.v) continues to advance its 12,500-metre drill program at the La Colorada Mine in Sonora, Mexico, with strong shallow oxide gold hits, the latest including high-grade intercepts, with highlights such as 5.0m at 9.69 g/t gold and 4.3m at 9.87 g/t gold: https://x.com/StckMasterFlash/status/1885049455659147309
La Colorada resumed production in January 2025, and drilling aims to expand reserves ahead of a mid-2025 Feasibility Study and expansion decision. Notably, shallow drill results indicate that areas previously considered waste within the Creston Pit Expansion could be converted into ore, potentially lowering upfront capital costs. HSTR is targeting three key veins—North, Intermediate, and South—while integrating results into a resource model for a mid-2025 reserve update. If successful, this could reduce the strip ratio and improve project economics. Additional drilling results are expected in Q1 and Q2 2025.
