Scottie Resources Corp. (TSX-V: SCOT) is pleased to report drill results from the Scottie Gold Mine Property. Results from drill hole SR19-13 include 7.27 g/t gold and 3.83 g/t silver over 25.02 m, which includes 11.72 g/t gold and 5.83 g/t silver over 10.95 m. Drill results include an extension of the historic M Zone of the 100% owned Scottie Gold Mine which produced 95,426 oz at an average recovered grade of 16.25 g/t gold. The Scottie Gold Mine is located in British Columbia’s Golden Triangle, 20 km south of Pretium’s Brucejack Mine.

“We are thrilled with the results from our single 2019 hole into the Scottie Gold Mine. At 539 m, it is the longest hole ever drilled at Scottie,” said Dr. Thomas Mumford, the Company’s VP, Exploration. “Assays from SG19-13 confirm that the Scottie Gold Mine was neither mined out or drilled off, and that the mineralization remains wide open. We look forward to testing its extent and finding additional high-grade ounces in 2020, as well as confirming its connection to the newly discovered high-grade Domino Zone, located on strike just 1.9 km due west of the past-producing Scottie Gold Mine M Zone.”

Scottie Gold Mine

The Scottie Gold Mine operated from 1981 – 1984, ultimately shutting down due to a drop in gold price combined with high-interest rates. During operation the mine produced 95,426 oz at an average recovered grade of 16.25 g/t gold. Mineralization consists of east-west to northwest trending, steeply dipping, shear veins, that are comprised of pyrrhotite > pyrite ± quartz ± calcite. The veins are hosted in a package of andesitic volcanics from the Hazelton Unuk River Formation that are situated adjacent to the contact with the Summit Lake stock, part of the Texas Creek Plutonic Suite.

Historical drilling of the Scottie Gold Mine was largely focused on mine production, with little work done on proving up substantial resources. The majority of historical drilling was done from underground, and therefore consisted of short holes with single targets – with very restricted drill pad locations. Hole SG19-13 was the longest hole ever drilled at Scottie, and because it was drilled from surface it was able to target zones inaccessible to previous underground operators. The parallel nature of the mineralizing veins in the Scottie Gold Mine naturally lend themselves to long holes that test multiple targets with a single drill hole. Results from this first hole confirm this principle, and have also provided invaluable information on alteration styles and drill hole deviation.

While the Scottie Gold Mine was in operation the majority of ore was produced from the M Zone. Hole SG19-13 successfully targeted the lower extension of the M Zone. Within SG19-13, the M Zone intercept (11.72 g/t gold over 10.95 m) is located 50 m from the nearest historic M zone intercept. Future drilling will continue to step out at depth and along strike.

The east-west to northwest trend of mineralization at the Scottie Gold Mine is on strike with the Company’s Domino Zone, a new high-grade surficial discovery made during the 2019 field season (see release dated November 14, 2019). Located just 1.9 km apart, drilling and field work during the 2020 field season will assess the association and continuity of mineralization between Scottie Gold Mine and the Domino Zone.

The Scottie Gold Mine property is road accessible from the town of Stewart, BC, and is subject to a 3% net smelter return, of which the Company can purchase 2% for $600,000 at any time.

Quality Assurance and Control

Results from samples were analyzed at ALS Global Laboratories (Geochemistry Division) in Vancouver, Canada (an ISO 9001:2008 accredited facility). The sampling program was undertaken by Company personnel under the direction of Thomas Mumford. A secure chain of custody is maintained in transporting and storing of all samples. Gold was assayed using a fire assay with atomic absorption spectrometry and gravimetric finish when required (+10 g/t Au).

Thomas Mumford, Ph.D., P.Geo and VP Exploration of Scottie, a qualified person under National Instrument 43-101, has reviewed the technical information contained in this news release on behalf of the Company.
