Gold-bearing core intervals ranging from 0.09 g/t to 56.90 g/t gold occur in 4 of the 5 diamond drill holes drilled on vein No 18. These holes were drilled in the vicinity of previously drilled intervals with grades ranging up to 162.5 g/t gold (grams/tonne gold) over 0.20 m and 56.50 g/t gold over 0.51 m as reported by the Company on December 3, 2020 and January 20, 2021. The gold bearing intervals are core lengths in metres and may not represent the true width of these intervals.

Gold-bearing intervals ranging from 0.29 g/t over 1.00 m to 7.09 g/t gold over 0.60 m occur in 5 of the 6 diamond drill holes drilled on the Maisie vein. These 6 holes were designed to test the potential extension of the Maisie vein on the east side of an off-setting fault. The Company is evaluating these significant drilling results for a potential a follow-up program.

Jake Lee Gold Project: SLAM is mobilizing a crew to prospect in the vicinity of two recently discovered quartz boulders grading 39.3 g/t gold and 1.49 g/t gold as well as the Cranford-Taylor vein that were reported by news release November 17, 2022. Other priority targets are located on the Roger Lake claim where one soil sample grading 16.20 g/t gold was detected in a 2021 soil survey by previous workers. In addition, 121 soil samples show elevated gold levels ranging from 0.01 g/t to 0.17 g/t gold. The survey comprises 1904 samples and covers a 5,000 by 1,000 metre grid area. The historic Lepreau River placer gold occurrence is located 400 m east of this grid. The Roger Lake claim was recently acquired in an option agreement dated November 2, 2022.
