SKRR Exploration Inc. (TSXV: SKRR) (OTC: SKKRF) (FSE: B04Q) (" SKRR " or the " Company ") is pleased to announce the start of an airborne magnetic survey at SKRR's 100% owned Irving Lake Project in east-central Saskatchewan (Figure 1), The Irving Project (the "Project") is located ~100km northeast of the town of La Ronge and is located within 10km to 20km of SSR Mining's very successful Seabee and Santoy mines, which is Saskatchewan's largest gold mining operation.
The presence of amphibolite-grade meta-volcanic and associated meta-intrusive rocks hosting well-defined shear zones are considered positive indicators for the presence of orogenic gold deposits at Irving Lake. The host rocks and structural framework are similar to gold deposits in the region such as the nearby Seabee and Santoy deposits and the highly prospective Fisher project. This prospective geology is considered to be underexplored on the property.
SKRR cautions that past results or discoveries on proximate lands are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be achieved on the Irving Lake Property.
Sherman Dahl , Chief Executive Officer of SKRR comments:
"We are excited to have commenced the airborne survey over the Irving Lake project area to identify and prioritize gold targets. This is a proven geophysical method for identifying structural, lithological and alteration features often associated with orogenic gold mineralization and aims to assist in prioritizing drill targets. With our recent and ongoing drilling success, we are confident of the potential for further significant discoveries in the Saskatchewan Trans Hudson Corridor"
Program Details
Precision GeoSurveys Inc has been contracted to fly a 4,288 line-km detailed magnetic helicopter-borne geophysical survey over the Irving Project (Figure 2) with flight lines spaced at 75m . The survey will be flown in a low-level systematic grid pattern over the property with lines oriented north/south. The survey, which has commenced, will help to identify rock types and geological features including fault structures and alteration zones associated with gold mineralization. It will also help direct work by field crews during future exploration programs.
The Project
The Irving Project is a gold exploration property located in east-central Saskatchewan , about 100km northeast of the La Ronge , Saskatchewan. It is comprised of 24 mineral claims totalling 19,795.56ha.
The project has many key geological features required for hosting large high-grade gold deposits like Seabee and Santoy, including favourable geology, large scale structural shear zones, localized flexures and faults and numerous mineralized showings.

Such forward-looking information reflects the Company's views with respect to future events and is subject to risks, uncertainties and assumptions, including the risks and uncertainties relating to the interpretation of exploration results, the interpretation of technical and scientific data, risks related to the inherent uncertainty of exploration and development and cost estimates and the potential for unexpected costs and expenses and including those filed under the Company's profile on SEDAR at www.sedar.com . There is a possibility that future exploration, development or mining results will not be consistent with the Company's expectations. Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in forward looking statements include, but are not limited to, continued availability of capital and financing and general economic, market or business conditions, adverse weather or climate conditions, decrease in the price of gold and other metals, equipment failures or failure to obtain the necessary equipment, failure to maintain all necessary government permits, approvals and authorizations, the impact of Covid-19 or other viruses and diseases on the Company's ability to operate, failure to maintain community acceptance (including First Nations), increase in costs, litigation, and failure of counterparties to perform their contractual obligations.
