Straightup completes Belanger preliminary fieldwork

Straightup Resources “Straightup” or the “Company”: CSE: ST is pleased to announce that Clark Exploration and Consulting personnel have completed a preliminary field examination to complement the compilation and reinterpretation work of all of the available historical data on the Company’s Belanger gold property (the “Property”) located in the Red Lake District, Ontario (see news releases dated September 9 and September 28, 2020). In addition, the Company has initiated the review of the historic diamond drill core that was stored at Government facilities in Kenora and moved to a core facility in Thunder Bay, Ontario. The Company also announces a non-brokered private placement to raise aggregate proceeds of up to $1,200,000. Belanger Property Field crews conducted prospecting and mapping on the Property focusing on previously underexplored areas of the Property hosting the historic “Hemming Occurrences”, which are located within the northeast trending Confederation Lake Narrows Deformation Zone located in the central part of the Property. A property examination by the Red Lake Resident Geologist in 1997 suggested the showings associated with the Hemming Occurrences are found within a 060o trending shear zone that is potentially more than 100 m wide and extensively silicified. In total, Clark Exploration and Consulting field crews collected 27 grab samples which have been submitted for analysis for gold and base metals to AGAT Laboratories in Thunder Bay, Ontario. Historical sampling from the Hemming Occurrences returned results of 6.8g/t Au and 3.18g/t Au, 0.8g/t Ag respectively, from samples taken in 1997, and 16.72g/t Au, 11.62g/t Ag and 3.11g/t Au, 3.68g/t Ag respectively from samples taken in 1975. The Clark Exploration crew was able to locate the historic Hemming trenches and confirmed the extensive deformation zone on the Property. Readers are cautioned that the above-mentioned samples are selective and likely biased by nature and therefore are not necessarily representative of the overall grade and extent of any mineralization that could occur on the subject areas of the Property. These results are historical in nature and may not accurately indicate the extent or grade of mineralization present on the Property. Although the Company believes the source of the historical information to be generally reliable, such information is subject to interpretation and cannot be verified with complete certainty due to limits on the availability and reliability of raw data and other inherent limitations and uncertainties. The King’s Bay Gold Corporation 2002 diamond drill campaign tested the Williamson Occurrences which occur on the southern part of the Property. In reviewing the diamond drill logs filed with the Ontario Government various sections of core intersected significant gold values (see news release dated June 11, 2020). The drill logs indicated areas of un-sampled material that may contain anomalous gold. The Company has initiated the re-logging and additional sampling of the diamond drill core. The core is currently in a core facility in Thunder Bay allowing easy access and review. The Property is fully permitted for early exploration activities such as stripping, trenching, line cutting and drilling. Private Placement The Company also announces a non-brokered private placement (the “Offering”) to raise aggregate proceeds of up to $1,200,000 through the sale of: (i) up to 3,600,000 units at the price of $0.20 per unit (each, a “Unit”); and (ii) up to 1,920,000 flow-through common shares at a price of $0.25 per share. Each Unit is comprised of one non-flow-through common share of the Company and one-half of one common share purchase warrant (each whole warrant, a “Warrant”), with each Warrant entitling the holder to acquire one additional common share at a price of $0.30 per share for a period of 12 months from the closing of the Offering. In the event the closing price of the Company’s common shares on the Canadian Securities Exchange (the “Exchange”) is equal to or greater than $0.50 per share for a minimum of ten consecutive trading days commencing four months and one day after the closing of the Offering, the Company may accelerate the expiry date of the Warrants by providing notice to the holders thereof and, in such case, the Warrants will expire on the 30th day after the date on which such notice is given by the Company. The Company may pay finder’s fees to arm’s length parties that have introduced the Company to subscribers participating in the Offering. All securities issued in connection with the Offering will be subject to a four-month and one day hold period in Canada. The net proceeds from the Offering are intended to be used for property expenditures and for general working capital. None of the foregoing securities have been and will not be registered under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”) or any applicable state securities laws and may not be offered or sold in the United States or to, or for the account or benefit of, U.S. persons (as defined in Regulation S under the 1933 Act) or persons in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from such registration requirements.
