The Goodpaster Prospect is considered the continuation of the main Pogo mineralised trend across a major NE trending fault system broadly coincident with the Goodpaster River valley. The initial drilling is focussed approximately 1km west of the recently announced Central Veins discovery area adjacent to the existing Pogo production areas (see diagram below). Since acquisition, Northern Star has rapidly advanced exploration drilling in the initial Goodpaster area with mineralised intersections now known to extend over a strike distance of 2.3km, to a depth of 500m and remains open in every direction. Mineralisation occurs in a series of stacked flat-dipping (Liese-type) and steeply dipping (North Zone-type) vein structures across the prospect area. The new discovery at Goodpaster, immediately along strike from the Pogo mining area demonstrates the camp scale potential of the district. Significant Goodpaster exploration drilling results include: 4.0m at 67.5gpt (discovery hole 2017) 5.2m at 15.7gpt 0.6m at 100.1gpt 5.2m at 9.5gpt incl. 2.4m at 18.1gpt 0.3m at 129.0gpt 1.8m at 13.2gpt 2.1m at 44.5gpt 2.2m at 28.1gpt 0.3m at 170.2gpt 8.1m at 5.0gpt 1.3m at 27.5gpt
