NEWS RELEASE

February 20, 2018

Grab Sampling on the Treasure Mountain Property has returned 22.7 g/t Au,

1.14% Cu, and 35.8 g/t Ag.

Stewart, BC – Decade Resources Ltd (“Decade”) reports on the results of the 2017

sampling program on the Treasure Mountain property. The property lies approximately

35 kilometers east of Terrace, British Co lumbia within the Sk eena Mining Division. The

Treasure Mountain property cons ists of 26 mineral claims totaling 9,950.6 hectares

owned 100 % by Decade. The property contai ns numerous copper-silver showings of

which the Purdex and Danee zones are the most prominent.

Exploration on the Treasure M ountain property is limited by two major factors. The

property is covered by lush vegetation and feature few outcrops. The outcrops are

strongly leached of copper which makes copper mi neralization very difficult to detect by

prospecting or soil sampling. Outcrops are often so strongly leached that there is no

sign of high grade copper miner alization on the surface wh ich can only be found after

removing the first 10-15 cm of barren rock. Highlights of 2017 sampling include:

 22.7 g/t Au, 1.14% Cu and 35.8 g/t Ag fr om a new showing that is a partially

exposed shear in an overburden covered area.

 9.98 g/t Au and 1.51% Cu from a grab sample from an old trench.

 A weighted average of 3.37% copper and 30.68 g/t silver from nine chip

samples.

Sample results from some of the tested zones are described below:

Purdex Zone

During the 2017 exploration program a total of nine chip samples ranging in length from

0.9 to 4.0 metres were collected. All sa mples except one were collected from old

trenches. They assayed from 0.49 to 5.51 % copper and from 7.2 to 42.7 g/t silver. They

gave a weighted average of 3.37% copper and 30.68 g/t silver.

Danee Zone.

The 2017 program consisted of resampling of the 2007 pits and trenches. A composite

grab collected from a 15-20 cm wide, partially exposed f ault assayed 4.01% Cu, 55.5

ppm Ag and 61 ppb Au. Grab sampling of a 10-20 cm wide quartz-chalcocite vein

yielded 4.43 % Cu, 45 ppm Ag and 38 ppb Au.

Trail Zone.

During the 2017 program three old trenches were found and resampled in the area

designated as the Trail zone in a 2008 A ssessment Report. Sample A17-68, a grab

from one of the trenches retu rned 1.51% Cu and 9.98 g/t Au. The sample represent

quartz-carbonate replacement of feldspar porphyritic ande site or basalt with 2-3%

disseminated bornite and chalcopyrite.

Odra Zone(new)

The zone, partially exposed by an excavator during a previous exploration program has

quartz-carbonate veins with mino r pyrite and some malachit e stain. Grab sampling of a

vein returned 1.14% Cu, 35.8 g/t Ag and 22.7 g/t Au.

The Treasure Mountain property has a great potential to host copper-silver and /or

copper-gold deposits. It featur es numerous copper showings as well as newly located

copper-gold showings of which only pa rt have been examined recently. An IP

geophysical survey covering the Purdex and other zones is recommended for the next

phase of exploration.
