Origen Acquires Prospective Ground Adjacent to Arlington Project
Vancouver, BC, April 19, 2021. Origen Resources Inc. (the “Company” or “Origen”) (CSE:ORGN ; FSE:4VX) is
pleased to announce that it has increased the size of its Arlington property by 922 h ectares through the
purchase of the adjacent Fresh Pot s claims from 1218802 B.C. Ltd. The Arlington property is located 17
kilometers north of the community of Beaverdell in B.C.’s southern interior and now covers an area of 1, 571
hectares.
“The purchase of the Fresh Pots claims greatly enhances the prospectivity of the Arlington area for gold, silver,
and copper. The source of the placer gold historically reported in China Creek has never been discovered and
this acquisition may hold the key to that mystery,” states Blake Morgan, Company President.
The Fresh Pots property is comprised of two claims covering 922.1 hectares, covers ground geologically similar
to the Arlington property , and is believed to host copper/gold skarn mineralization. Historical Crown grant
supporting documents, newspaper articles, and mineral claim survey maps from the late 1890’s detail a series
of workings exploiting a ledge of magnetite iron carry ing values in copper and gold (Boundary Creek Times,
1899) located north of China Creek and opposite the historic mining camp of Carmi . The China Creek area ,
including Carmi, was a landmark mining camp in the late 1800’s/early 1900’s and the creek itself reportedly
produced placer gold between 1896-1898 that was believed to be sourced from the magnetite iron ledge (The
Phoenix Pioneer, 1905). The property is fully road accessible, as it is transected by B.C. Highway 33, and has no
record of modern exploration activity. A due diligence site visit conducted by Origen personnel on March 26 -
28, 2021 readily found and sampled magnetite and copper mineralization. Two grab samples* were taken and
the results are as follows:
• Sample Number MJR001 returned 1.55% Copper, 0.31 g/t Gold and 35.8 g/t Silver
• Sample number MJR002 returned 1.625% Copper, 0.42 g/t Gold and 29.4 g/t Silver
*Grab samples are solely designed to show the presence or absence of mineralization and to characterize the
mineralization. Grab samples are by definition selective and not intended to provide nor should be construed as
a representative indication of grade or mineralization at the Project.
The Company intends on conducting an exploration program on the newly expanded Arlington project in the
coming months that will consist of mapping, soil sampling, and ground geophysics. Keeping in line with Origen’s
project generator business model, the Company will be seeking a partner to further develop the project upon
completion of the program.

Quality Assurance, Quality Control and Laboratory Methods
Origen fieldwork followed industry standard practices. No duplicate samples were included due to the small
number of samples and no standards or blanks were inserted. MSA Laboratories of Langley, British Columbia,
Canada is a certified analytical laboratory (ISO 9001 and ISO 17025 quality accreditation) with experience in the
chemical analysis of geological materials. Samples were delivered to the laboratory by an employee of Coast
Mountain Geological Ltd. who was contracted to implement the site visit for the Company. All rock samples
were prepared using MSA Labs PREP-915 which includes drying then crushing, with 70% passing 2 mm. A 500 g
sub-sample of the coarse crush is further pulverized with 85% passing 75 μ. Gold results were conducted by an
