Vancouver, British Columbia – Newsfile Corp. – February 15, 2022 – Casa Minerals Inc. (TSXV: CASA) (OTC Pink: CASXF) (FSE: 0CM) (the “Company” or “Casa”) is pleased to announce it has mobilized its exploration crew to the Congress Gold Mine, in the Martinez Mining District of Yavapai County, Arizona, in preparation for its upcoming diamond drilling program. The Company expects to begin the drilling program following an initial period of ground exploration work.
The Congress Mine has the distinction of being Arizona’s largest gold-silver mine with production of an estimated 500,000 ounces of gold at various intervals between 1887 and 1992.
Casa has recently compiled and digitized a majority of the historic data available, including several important vein systems in addition to historically mined out stopes and historically outlined mining stopes. A geological model has been developed and will be enhanced with the new data when it has been thoroughly analyzed. The model will be publicly available before drilling commences.
The current program is planned to map and re-sample outcropped veins, to verify certain historic data with the GIS database, and to investigate proposed diamond drill locations and to prepare the drill sites for the drilling program. Casa will provide further exploration details in the near future.
