Conquest Commences Drilling on Golden Rose Project
• Tom Obradovich appointed as President and CEO
Toronto, October 16, 2020 – Conquest Resources Limited (TSX -V: CQR) (the “ Company” or
“Conquest”) reports that , following completion and closing of the acquisi tion of Canadian Continental
Exploration Corp, it has commenced drilling at its Golden Rose Project in the Temagami mining camp,
approximately 65 kilometers northeast of Sudbury, Ontario.
5,000m Drilling Program at Golden Rose Project
A 5000 metre diamond drill program is now underway at Conquest’s Golden Rose Project located in the
Temagami Greenstone Belt northeast of Sudbury, Ontario. The past producing Golden Rose Mine is
considered by the Company to be underexplored and tested only at relatively shallow depths compared to
modern Abitibi Greenstone gold mines. The known mineralization, which is gold in quartz carbonate veins
hosted in iron formation, is open on strike and at depth.
Numerous anomalous gold in soils coincident with areas of magnetic destruction and cross cutting
structures along several kilometers of iron formation will be tested in this Phase 1 drilling program. Soil
sampling and geophysical surveys were performed on the property to assist in t argeting the current drill
program.
Appointment of Thomas Obradovich as President and CEO
John Kearney, Chairman of Conquest, is pleased to announce the appointment of Thomas Obradovich as
President and CEO of the Company, effective immediately. “Tom was President of Canadian Continental
Exploration Corp, the private company recently acquired by Conquest, and was responsible for assembling
the large mineral claim package surrounding Conquest’s Golden Rose property. He will be resigning as
Executive Chairman of Talisker Resources Ltd to focus on Conquest.”
Tom Obradovich is a graduate of the Haileybury School of Mines with 40 years of experience in mineral
exploration, development, financing, mergers and acquisitions.
He was a cofounder of Canadian Royalties Inc which discovered and developed the south Raglan Nickel
Belt, a key individual behind Aurelian Resources which discovered the Fruta Del Norte gold deposit in
Ecuador acquired by Kinross in 2008 for $1.2 billion, and the consolidation of the Matachewan mining
camp by the reverse-take-over of Young -Davidson Mines Ltd , which was subsequently acquired by
Northgate Minerals in 2005.
Tom was a lead director and on the special committees of Dalradian Resources acquired by Orion Mine
Finance and of Barkerville Gold Mines Ltd. acquired by Osisko Gold Royalties.
Robert Kinloch retired as President of Conquest to facilitate the appointment of Tom Obradovich and will
continue as a director of the Company.
Various Styles of Mineralization Targeted at Golden Rose
As the Phase 1 drilling progresses, targeting of different types of mineralization known to occur within the
extensive land position now controlled by Conquest is underway. V-TEM airborne surveys are planned to
cover areas with indications of Volcanogenic Massive Sulfide potential and Sudbury style high-grade Cu-
Ni-PGE deposits similar to those mined by Teck at the Copperfields Mine on Temagami Island.
Past drilling on the Temagami magnetic anomaly by Canadian Continental also indicates evidence for the
potential of IOCG deposits in the area. Paleo-placer mineralization in Huronian units above the Archean
rocks will also be sampled.
About Conquest Resources
Conquest Resources Limited incorporated in 1945 is a mineral exploration company that is engaged in the
exploration of gold properties in Ontario.
Conquest owns 100% interest in the enlarged Golden Rose Project at Emerald Lake, in the Temagami
mining camp, located approximately 65 kilometers northeast of Sudbury, Ontario, underlain by highly
prospective Abitibi Greenstone geology. Conquest now controls over 130 square kilometers of mining lands
considered highly prospective for precious and base metals, making it the one of the largest land holders in
the Temagami mining camp. The former Golden Rose gold mine is located deep within the regionally large,
unexplained Emerald Lake (Temagami) Anoma ly which closely resembles the magnetic signature of the
adjacent Sudbury Basin.
Conquest also owns a 100% interest in the Alexander Gold Property located immediately east of the Red
Lake and Campbell Mines in the heart of the Red Lake Gold Camp on the important “Mine Trend” regional
structure. Conquest’s property is almost entirely surrounded by Evolution Mines land holdings.
In addition, Conquest owns a 100% interest in the Smith Lake Gold Property which consists of six patented
claims and 181 staked min ing claims to the north, west and south of the Renabie Gold Mine in Rennie
Township which had production of over 1,000,000 ounces of gold.
