NASIGON MAIDEN DRILLING CONFIRMS CONTINOUS STRATIFORM COPPER
MINERALIZATION OVER 1 KM FROM SURFACE
Montréal, Québec, November 5, 2018 – Kintavar Exploration Inc. (the “Corporation” or
“Kintavar”) (TSX-V: KTR) (FRANKFURT: 58V), is pleased to announce drilling results from the
Nasigon maiden drilling program. The 16 drill holes program (2,500 m) intersected 7 mineralized
marble and calc-silicate units which can be followed on surface and at depth for over 1 km. The
width of the mineralized corridor is approximately 500 m. The mineralization was confirmed to a
depth of up to 125 m.
The Nasigon showing area identified five (5) of these units, while two (2) other units were
identified to the South-West in the Moli showing area (see Figure 1). Mineralization is present in
the form of chalcocite, bornite and chalcopyrite and is consistent with mineralization in the
Sherlock corridor. This confirms the extension of the stratiform copper mineralization to over 15
km. The main difference observed between the two corridors is the struct ural setting. The
structural thickening that is present in Sherlock is yet to be identified at Nasigon as most drill
holes intersected individual units in a fold limb and not the fold hinge which should provide the
thickest intervals.
Several drill holes intersected over 20 m of mineralization (MN -18-06 22.0 m @ 0.28% Cu, MN -
18-01 21.0 m @ 0.21% Cu) which are pointing toward mineralization widening and grade
increasing to the South -West. All the units that were intersected remain open laterally and at
depth. The units are 450 to 6 50 dip and the drilling represents true width of over 80% of the
mineralized intervals. The summary of the copper intersections is presented in Table 1 at the end
of the press release.
“The Mitchi project gives us a unique mineralized system to work with. With mineralization
present over 15 km we are seeing how different structural settings provide us with different
advantages in each area . The Nasigon maiden drilling program demonstrated that the structure
here is easier to follow on surface and at depth which we will be extending laterally and
particularly to the West . Future work will focus on surface follow up of soil and geophysical
anomalies that were not investigated this year and t argeting the fold hinges. ” comments Kiril
Mugerman, President and CEO of Kintavar.

The table with new assays can be downloaded here or viewed at the end of the press release.
All samples have been sent and prepared (PREP -31) by ALS Global laborator y in Val -d’Or. The
pulp was sent to ALS Global laboratory in Vancouver for copper assays (CU -ICP61), silver assays
(AG-ICP61) or a multi -elemental analysis by four acid digestion (ME -ICP61) and spectroscopy
(ICP-AES/MS). Samples with assays higher than 10 ,000 ppm Cu were reanalyzed by atomic
absorption (CU -OG62) at the ALS Global Vancouver laboratory. Quality controls include
systematic addition of blank samples and certified copper standards to each batch of samples
sent to the laboratory.

About the Mitchi Property
The Mitchi property (approx. 30,000 hectares, 100% owned) is located west of the
Mitchinamecus reservoir, 100 km north of the town of Mont -Laurier. The property covers an
area of more than 300 km2 accessible by a network of logging and gravel roads with a hydro -
electric power substation located 14 km to the east. The property is located in the north-western
portion of the central metasedimentary belt of the Grenville geological province. Many gold,
copper, silver and/or manganese mineralized showings have been identi fied to date, with many
characteristics suggesting of a sediment -hosted stratiform copper type deposit (SSC) in the
Eastern portion of the property and Iron Oxide Copper Gold ore (IOCG) and skarn type deposits
in the Western portion. Osisko holds a 2% NSR on 27 claims of the southern portion of the Mitchi
property, outside of the sedimentary basin.
