Scottie Discovers New Mineralization Trend at Blueberry Zone, Reports Intercepts of 10.2 g/t Gold Over 3.21 m and 1.31 g/t Over 22.13 m

Scottie Resources Corp. (" Scottie " or the " Company ") (TSXV: SCOT) is pleased to report new assay results for the Blueberry Zone, including intercepts of 10.2 gt gold over 3.21 metres and 1.31 gt over 22.13 metres. These intercepts further support the existence of the N-S mineralizing system that was first discovered by Scottie in late 2019. The newly defined trend remains open along strike and at depth, with extensive surface work establishing a zone that exceeds 800 metres in strike length.

CEO, Bradley Rourke commented: "The Blueberry Zone continues to yield strong intercepts along the newly defined N-S trend. Now that we have got a handle on the geometry of the system, drilling in 2021 will focus on increasing the vertical and lateral extent of this zone. The road accessible, near surface mineralization present at the Blueberry Zone complements the high-grade mineralization we continue to discover around the Scottie Gold Mine, located just 2 km to the southwest."

Blueberry Zone

The Bow Property's Blueberry Zone is located just 2 km northeast of the 100% owned, past-producing Scottie Gold Mine located in British Columbia, Canada's Golden Triangle region. Historic trenching and channel sampling of the Blueberry Vein include results of 103.94 g/t gold over 1.43 metres, and 203.75 g/t gold over 1.90 metres. Despite high-grade surficial samples and easy road access, the Blueberry Vein has only limited reported drilling. The target was significantly advanced during Scottie's 2019 drill program when an interval grading 7.44 g/t gold over 34.78 metres was intersected in a new splay off zone of the main Blueberry Vein. The drill results received so far in 2020, coupled with surficial mapping and sampling suggest that this splay is in fact a major N-S mineralizing structure, of which the Blueberry Vein was only a secondary structure. This near surface zone is much wider than pursued in previous exploration models and establishing the orientation and continuity of it was a priority during the 2020 drill program. A total 1609 metres in 11 holes were drilled into the Blueberry Zone during 2020. The Blueberry Zone is located on the Granduc Road, 20 km north of the Ascot Resources' Premier Mill, which has recently completed financing for reactivation ( Dec 10, 2020 ).

2021 Blueberry Exploration Program

The 2021 work program planned for the Blueberry Zone includes substantial drill step outs (>200 m) along strike to test the continuity of the recently defined N-S structure (Fig 1, 2). Additional drilling will test the vertical extent of the successful intercepts from 2019/2020. An induced polarization survey (IP), as well as a trenching program will be used to further delineate targets within the mineralized corridor.

This release constitutes the final release of drillholes from the 2020 drill program. Any outstanding drill holes between SR20-21 and -66 (2020 drilling) that were not explicitly described in the news releases between October 6, 2020 and this release, yielded no significant results.

Quality Assurance and Control

Results from samples were analyzed at MSALABS in Langley, Canada (an ISO 9001 accredited facility). The sampling program was undertaken by Company personnel under the direction of Dr. 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 (+9 g/t Au). Analysis by four acid digestion with 48 element ICP-MS analysis was conducted on all samples with silver and base metal over-limits being re-analyzed by emission spectrometry.

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.

Goldman Sachs Bullish on Commodities, Shares 2023 Price Calls for Gold and Copper

Goldman Sachs (NYSE:GS) is maintaining its bullish stance on commodities as they continue to enjoy strong cyclical and structural support, and as the US and Europe move closer to cutting interest rates.

The American investment bank said it sees raw materials potentially returning 15 percent in 2024.

“We find that US rate cuts in non-recessionary environments lead to higher commodity prices, with the biggest boost to metals (copper and gold in particular), followed by crude oil,” Bloomberg quotes analysts Samantha Dart and Daan Struyven as saying in a note this past Sunday (March 24). “Importantly, the positive impact on prices tends to increase with time, as the growth impulse from looser financial conditions filters through.”

Heritage Mining Gears up for 2024 Exploration at Drayton-Black Lake Project

Heritage Mining (CSE:HML) is gearing up for more drilling in 2024 following a successful drill program in 2023, the results of which confirmed the presence of multiple high-grade instances of gold and silver mineralization.

“We're advancing, and we were probably the most active in 2023 from an exploration perspective,” said Peter Schloo, president and CEO of Heritage Mining. “So we have a lot of news to come and, you know, the stocks are looking really good.”

The company will be conducting ground induced polarization drilling to further define the deposit potential at the Alcona and New Millennium targets within its flagship Drayton-Black Lake project.
