Showcase Retains Rangefront to Manage

Exploration Drill Program at the Dixie Flats-North

Star Project, Nevada

CALGARY, AB / March 8, 2024 / Showcase Minerals Inc. (CSE: SHOW) ("Showcase") is pleased

to announce that for its upcoming drilling exploration program at the Dixie Flats – North Star

Gold Project, the Company has contracted the services of Rangefront Geological ("Rangefront")

to design and oversee the program, including drilling management, core logging, and related

geological services.

Rangefront has assigned Steven McMillin, P.Geo., to manage the Dixie Flats – North Star drill

program, and he will also act as the qualified person as defined by National Instrument 43-101

to review and approve technical information in future news releases regarding this exploration

project. Mr. McMillin will be ably assisted by Patrick Mullinger, a seasoned four-year veteran of

Rangefront, who brings a wealth of experience from work with over 20 clients. Mr. Mullinger

will log the drill chips on site, manage the drill crew, and supervise sample quality.

Mr. McMillin is a highly-experienced and well-respected exploration geologist with over 35

years of practical mineral exploration experience in the United States, and experience with

many different exploration projects in Nevada. Mr. McMillin is currently a field operations

manager at Rangefront Geological and is primarily responsible for the set-up and management

of Rangefront client drill programs. At Rangefront, his responsibilities include liaising with

vendors and federal/state regulators, establishing drill safety, supervising drilling and sampling

protocols, and overall site reclamation.

Previously, Mr. McMillin was chief mine geologist at Jerritt Canyon Gold LLC., where he led

underground near-mine exploration and resource development. During his tenure at Jerritt

Canyon, 12 new orebodies were discovered, and most were developed. Prior to 2016, Mr.

McMillin was chief mine geologist at Fire Creek with Klondex Mines Ltd., senior exploration

geologist with Midway Gold Corp. at the Spring Valley and Pan-Goldrock deposits, senior mine

geologist at Jerritt Canyon with AngloGold and Queenstake Resources, and project geologist

with Newmont Exploration in Nevada. He is an AIPG (American Institute of Professional

Geologists) certified professional geologist and a member of the Geological Society of Nevada

and the Society of Economic Geologists.

About the Dixie Flats– North Star Gold Project:

The Dixie Flats-North Star Property (the “Property” or “Dixie Flats”) is located on the east side

of the Piñon Mountains, 21 air-miles south of the City of Elko in northeast Nevada. It is a

combination of two claim blocks, the Dixie Flats group of claims and the North Star group of

claims. The Property is comprised of a total of 236 total unpatented mineral claims on Federal

land administered by the US Bureau of Land Management (“BLM”).

The Property lies on the southern margin of the Carlin Trend, a northwest-trending belt of

sediment-hosted gold deposits that makes up the greatest geographic concentration of gold

deposits in North America, with reported production of more than 92.5 million ounces of gold

since 1961 (Muntean, 2019). The Dixie Flats-North Star Property is underlain by rocks known to

host gold mineralization on the Carlin Trend, and surface sampling has shown anomalous gold,

silver, arsenic, antimony, and mercury levels in rock, soil, and biogeochemical samples from the

Property, which is a characteristic geochemical signature of Carlin-Type gold deposits.

The Dixie - North Star Gold Project is approximately three miles south of Newmont Mining

Company’s Emigrant Springs Mine, which finished production in 2018, and approximately 4.5

miles southeast of the past producing Rain Mine. Both deposits are hosted in dissolution

breccia zones at the contact between the Webb mudstone, the basal unit of the overlying

assemblage, and the underlying Devils Gate limestone. Prior exploration on the Dixie -

North Star Property has been focused on delineating this contact at depth and discovering

possible extensions to the regional structures controlling mineralization at the Rain and

Emigrant Mines and their demonstrated extension to the Dixie – North Star Property. The

information on the adjacent projects is taken from publicly available sources and is not

necessarily indicative of the mineralization within the Dixie Flats – North Star Property.

Additional information on the Dixie -North Star Gold Project can be found in the National

Instrument 43-101 (“NI 43-101”) technical report entitled “Technical Report on the Dixie Flats-

Northstar Gold Exploration Property”, Elko, Nevada, dated September 21, 2022, which has been

filed on SEDAR at www.Sedar.com.
