WestStar Resources Corp. has received the first batch of assays for a rock sampling program recently completed on its La Paloma property. The Property is located approximately 70 kilometers west of the city of Guadalajara in the State of Jalisco, Mexico. The most prospective sample was an outcrop rock chip sample collected from a mineralized quartz vein hosted within silica and carbonate altered rhyolite tuff. This sample (sample 11DMP135) assayed 311 grams-per-tonne (“g/t”) silver and 7.81 g/t gold. Continuous rock channel sampling across this partially exposed zone of mineralization returned assays of 64.1 g/t silver and 0.84 g/t gold over a true width of 6.0 metres (sample Channel 2). These results outline the potential for the Property which is encouraging for the Company. Table 1 below outlines the distribution of gold and silver grades by sample type.
