Spartan Metals Provides Results of Geophysical Surveys from Tungstonia Claims in Nevada

By

Spartan Metals (W.V) reported the results of geophysical surveys completed at the Tungstonia claims within the Eagle tungsten-silver-rubidium project in Nevada.

Results demonstrated the potential extension of tungsten-silver veins of up to 700 meters in depth, the company said Friday.

According to Spartan, the project may host a dynamic mineralizing system with potential for multiple styles of mineral deposits.

"We believe we have a coherent picture of one potentially large mineralizing system with several strong targets across the Eagle Project that we can drill with clear rationale behind each one," said Rebecca Ball, Spartan's vice president of exploration.
