BITTERROOT RESOURCES PROVIDES UPDATES ON THE

COYOTE SINTER AND CASTLE GOLD/SILVER PROJECTS

Bitterroot Resources Ltd. (symbol BTT, TSX -V) is providing an update on its precious

metals exploration activities in the State of Nevada, which have been advancing in addition

to the Company’s magmatic nickel/copper drilling programs on the LM Property in the

Upper Peninsula of Michigan.

The 100%-owned Coyote Sinter claims are located in Elko County, NV, at the south end

of the Independence Trend and five miles southeast of the Tuscarora mining camp. In early

2021, Bitterroot’s geophysical contractor Zonge International completed a CSAMT survey

which identified a resistive brittle dacite layer at the most prospective 200-400 metres depth

below the geochemi cally anomalous sinter horizon. The CSAMT also identified a sub-

vertical resistive zone which is coincident with geothermal vents in the sinter horizon

which were mapped in the summer of 2021. The Coyote Sinter property is located on

Federal, BLM-administered lands. BLM has approved the Company’s Notice and accepted

bonding for up to 20 drill sites. Drilling of the se resistive CSAMT targets and the

mineralized “Chevron Fault” is planned for later in 2022, subject to financing and drill rig

availability.

The 100%-owned Castle claims are located in Esmeralda County, NV, at the south end of

the Gilbert district and 30 miles west of Tonopah, NV. Castle hosts a 1x2 kilometre,

argillic-altered and geochemically anomalous hydrothermal system . Previous operators

drilled extensive areas of low-grade (0.1-0.3 grams Au/tonne) mineralization in the altered

tuffs. Castle is untested for bonanza -grade mineralization at depth , in potential

hydrothermal feeder zones below the low -grade mineralized tuffs . Drilling is planned to

test for Hishikari-type high -grade gold/silver mineralization at the intersection of sub-

vertical gold-mineralized silicified veins and the unconformity between Ordovician

Palmetto Formation metasediments and overlying brittle Castle Peak rhyolitic tuffs. The

Castle property is located on Federal, BLM -administered lands. BLM has approved the

Company’s Notice and accepted bonding for up to 13 drill sites. Drilling is planned for

later in 2022, subject to financing and drill rig availability.

Additional details on the Coyote Sinter and Castle gold/silver projects are available in slide

presentations on the Company’s website www.bitterrootresources.com.
