Belo Horizonte, Brazil--(Newsfile Corp. - September 21, 2020) - Jupiter Gold Corporation (OTCQB: JUPGF) ("Jupiter Gold" or the "Company") announced that it has identified white and light grey quartzite deposits in one of its 100%-owned mineral rights in southeast Brazil. Preliminary calculations indicate a potential aggregate of 3.7 million tons of quartzite, a mineral which is widely used for countertops and tiles; Brazil is a leading producer and exporter. Current prices for the type of quartzite identified range from $1,200 to $2,000 per ton when sold at the quarry. Because of the possibility of potential cash flow with a relatively simple quarry, Jupiter Gold has been investigating this opportunity with a mining engineer with substantial expertise in both quartzite mining and its commercialization.
A photograph from an aerial survey of a part of Jupiter Gold's project area is found below; the contours drawn in the picture indicate the four areas with most quartzite outcroppings.
