NEWS RELEASE

DECADE PROVIDES AN UPDATE ON PLANNED DEL NORTE EXPLORATION

Stewart, BC – Decade Resources Ltd (“Decade”) reports that it has had discussions with

contractors on program s intended to explore the Del No rte Project. The property is

located 34 kilometres east of Stewart, BC and is comprised of 5,830.16 ha in 13 separate

claims. It was optioned from Teuton Resource Corp. in January of 2020 with terms

allowing the Company to earn up to a 55% interest in the property by spending $4 million

over a five year period. The Company can earn an additional 20% interest by carrying

the property to commercial production.

The Del Norte property contains numerous mi neralized zones. The two most important

mineralization events are asso ciated with quartz veins and bre ccias which are spatially

restricted to felsic packages and the footwall contact of thrust zones as well as porphyry

copper-gold. In the area of thrusting, quartz veins and breccia include the Argo/LG

Vein/LG Extension Zone, Kosciuszko Zone / SP, Eagle’s Nest, and New zone. The

Argo/LG Vein/LG Extension Zone has been traced over 1.2 km while the New zone was

observed over 100 m of strike in a high mountain pass between 2 ice fields. The

Kosciuszko/ SP zone has been traced over 1.2 km as well, whil e the Eagle’s Nest zone

has been traced over 400m.These are marked by a distinct altera tion halo, with a

propylitic zone constituting the outer envelope of the mineralization. Galena, sphalerite,

pyrite and minor chalcopyrite and tetrahedrite are common in these quartz veins.

The porphyry copper-gold mineralization has numerous copper showings associated with

this style along the south slopes of Del Norte Creek.

With recent ablation of the glacial ice, the Company plans to conduct more exploration on

the Kosciuszko structure containing the Kosciuszko, SP and K-Dog zones. High gold and

silver assays have been obtained on the limited exposures over a strike length of at least

500 m with the SP zone just south of the K-zone. The K- zone is covered by ice to the

north of exploration work to date. It has received limited drilling, with all 7 holes completed

containing gold and silver. Five holes tested the K-zone and 2 holes testing the SP zone.

A diagram showing the 2002 drill results on the K-zone is attached below:

The above diagram shows the mi neralized zone cross cutting the strike of sediments to

the left with felsic volcanics to the right. The felsic volcanics are located stratigraphically

at the same geological horiz on as that hosting the Eskay Creek deposit. In the above

diagram, the mineralized zone is up to 10 m wi de as shown by the 2002 trench in the

lower right that assayed 6.14 g/t Au and 630.85 g/t Ag over its entire width. A trench in

2006 above the 2002 drilling returned 15 m of 3.93 g/t Au and 267.59 g/t Ag as shown in

the following photo.

Due to falling ice, steep conditions and snow cover, little work has been done in this area.

With the recent ice melt exposing potential drill pads, the Company plans to explore the

possibility of conducting more work on this gold-silver bearing structure.

To the south, approximately 500m, the structure is exposed showing the SP zone. The

accompanying photo shows 2006 trenching over a number of mineralized veins within a

wide quartz breccia structure. Drilling, south of the initial trench discovery in 2002,

intersected 1208 g/t silver and 26.54 g/t gold over 4.05 m on the same or sub-parallel

structure (SP zone). Surface grab sampling in a trench for the above mentioned drill hole

assayed up to 3910 g/t silver and 19.5 g/t gold. The accompanying photo shows sample

results for the SP zone.
