Canstar Resources Inc. Announces Final Results of 2015 Field Season, Including Assays of Up to 65.1 g/t Au

TORONTO, ONTARIO--(Marketwired - Jan. 14, 2016) - Canstar Resources Inc. ("Canstar" or the "Company") (TSX VENTURE:ROX) is pleased to announce that the last batch of results from its 2015 trenching and sampling program have been received. In addition to the Company's high-grade assays announced on December 3^rd, 2015, new high-grade gold results have been returned for samples taken from areas that had not been previously sampled, highlights of which include:

• Grab samples containing 65.1 g/t and 8.4 g/t Au taken just south of the Company's Main Showing ("Ace") which returned 2.0 g/t Au over 18m (see December 3^rd, 2015 press release);
• A 3.46 g/t Au grab sample taken from a highly altered and rusted zone proximal to Ace Showing (required follow-up);
• Several test channels on the Aviator Trend containing up to 1.67 g/t Au over 0.7 meters.
• A new sulphide zone discovered 25 meters west of the Ace Showing

These grab samples represent new areas of sampling which were inaccessible during the previous sampling campaigns and provide further evidence for the presence of extensive mineralized systems on the property. Sample GR-1126504, which returned the highest gold value to date from this trend, was sampled from a strongly chlorite-carbonate altered and oxidized outcrop (i.e. rust), with observed ribbon quartz vein-arrays occurring just south of the Main Showing. Also notable was the discovery of a sulphide zone 25 meters to the west of the Ace Showing which contained anomalous gold values (0.10 g/t Au) and is geologically compelling as it also indicates scale and size of the hydrothermal system in and around the showing, further enhancing its exploration potential.

Danniel Oosterman, Canstar's President and CEO noted, "We consider the trenching program to have been a resounding success, and a great way to have capped off the 2015 field season. Not only have we discovered wide zones of gold mineralization of up to 18 meters wide, but all of the zones are still open for expansion, a goal which we intend to accomplish in 2016."

The Company has recently completed its financing (see press release December 30^th, 2015) and is now well-funded to continue exploration on the Kenora Project for the upcoming year, with intentions of bringing the project to a drill-ready status by mid-year.

Canstar Resources Inc. also announces that Mr. William Deluce has resigned as director of the Company. Mr. Deluce has served as a Director of Canstar since April 2005. The Board and management of Canstar would like to thank Mr. Deluce for his time and dedication to Canstar. Mr. Deluce has been a valued advisor to the board and management and we wish him well in his future business ventures.

The Company's board is now comprised of John Hurley, Danniel Oosterman, David Palmer, Dennis Peterson (Chairman) and Patrick Reid.

Channel samples were taken with a diamond blade saw at approximately 90 degrees to observed structural trends. Results reports are composited using weighted averages over the length of sample as reported. Canstar observes a quality control program for all of its exploration work according to best practices in the industry from sample shipment and preparation to data collection and analyses. Fire assay and Aqua Regia ICP analyses were completed by Activation Laboratories Ltd. (Actlabs) who are ISO 17025 accredited and/or certified to 9001: 2008.
