(the “Optionor”), on Megastar’s wholly-owned Ralleau Property (the “Property”) in the prolific Windfall Lake District.
Megastar’s President & CEO Dusan Berka comments: “This is a great opportunity for the Company and it’s shareholders to participate in the excitement coming out of one of the newest, active exploration districts in Quebec, without having to dilute our share structure. The property is strategically located adjacent to the area where Osisko Mining has been actively acquiring large land positions. We’re pleased to have Deeprock Minerals earn-in on Megastar’s Ralleau Property to possibly unlock its potential.”
