BOREAL COMPLETES GUMSBERG MAGNETIC SURVEY AND IDENTIFIES MULTIPLE
PROSPECTIVE ZONES IN SWEDEN
Vancouver, B.C., September 19, 2018. Boreal Metals Corporation (“Boreal” or the “Company”)
(TSXV:BMX) is pleased to announce results from the recently completed 61-line kilometer ground
magnetic geophysical survey at the Gumsberg Project (“Gumsberg” or the “Project”) in southern
Sweden. Linear magnetic trends are associated with previously defined high-grade surface and
subsurface mineralization and are interpreted to reflect several highly prospective stacked
mineralized horizons.
“The results of the ground magnetic survey at Gumsberg greatly increase the base and precious
metal prospectivity of our high-grade Gumsberg Project,” stated Karl Antonius, President and
CEO. “The geophysical indications for multiple high-grade ore horizons vastly increases the
potential for Boreal to build tons in the prolific Bergslage n Mining District where Boliden and
Lundin are actively mining large precious metal enriched base metal deposits.”

Vallberget-Loberget Ground Magnetic Survey
Ground magnetic data collected over the recently drilled Vallberget -Loberget prospect area
further confirms the potential for layered/stacked or structurally repeated mineralized zones
which represent attractive exploration drilling targets (Figure 1). These new targets significantly
expand the Project’s capacity to build tonnage over what now exceeds three kilometers of
prospective geology.
High-grade precious metal enriched base metal mineralizati on (silver-zinc-lead-copper) is
traceable at surface and by diamond drilling at depth and can contain magnetic minerals such as
pyrrhotite (Figure 1). Ground magnetic survey data provides a means of tracing mineralized
zones in the subsurface based on their magnetic properties. Prospective areas highlighted by the
magnetic surveys will be evaluated in the context of the Project’s geology to eliminate targets
that contain magnetic rocks unrelated to mineralization (e.g. magnetite bearing iron formations),
leading to new drill targets.
Not all mineralized zones contain sufficient magnetic minerals to show up in magnetic surveys.
Consequently, there may be additional non-magnetic mineralized horizons on the Gumsberg
Project that will require additional exploration methods (e.g. advanced geological interpretation,
electrical techniques) to define.
The strategically situated Gumsberg Project includes six exploration licenses located in the
Bergslagen Mining District of southern Sweden, totaling over 18,300 hectares, where multiple
zones and styles of VMS-style mineralization have been identified. Mineral exploration is ongoing
at Gumsberg and focused on testing additional zones of mineralization at several prospects which
contain surface mineralization and/or subsurface mineralization in drill holes and historical
workings.
Ground Magnetic Survey Parameters
A G859 Cesium Vapor Magnetometer, non-magnetic backpack and Tallysman WAAS/EGNOS
ready GPS paired with a G-856AX proton Procession magnetometer base station was used to
collect the Gumsberg survey data. Data was collected continuously over 13 days along staked
lines and corrected for diurnal magnetic variations. A total of 61-line kilometers of data were
collected with an average line spacing of 50 meters.
