GOLD’N FUTURES REPORTS ON ITS INAUGURAL EXPLORATION PROGRAMS ON

THE HERCULES GOLD PROJECT NEAR GERALDTON, ONTARIO

VANCOUVER, BC -- (Newsfile – October 18, 2021) GOLD’N FUTURES MINERAL CORP. (CSE: FUTR) (FSE:

G6M), (OTC: GFTRF) (the " Company” or “ Gold’n Futures ”) is pleased to report it has launched its

inaugural work programs on the Hercules G old Project (“Hercules”). Hercules is located in the

Beardmore - Geraldton gold camp of north -central Ontario. Its gold resources are well- known for high

gold grades and long strike lengths. From the twelve gold systems, the best known gold zone is the

Golden Mile Vein that has a strike length approaching 3,000m and co ntains an historical uncapped

indicated resource of 191,800 tonnes grading 16.80 grams per tonne gold (g/t Au) (the “Golden Mile”).

The Golden Mile resource is open along strike and down dip.

Please Note: The historical resource is based on prior data and reports obtained and prepared by previous

operators, and information provided by governmental authorities. A Qualified Person has not done sufficient work

to verify the classification of the mineral resource estimates in accordanc e with current CIM categories. The

Company is not treating the historical resour ce as a current NI 43 -101-compliant mineral resource estimate.

Accordingly, this historical estimate should not be relied upon. Establishing a current mineral resource estimate on

the Hercules will require further evaluation, which the Company and its consultants intend to complete in due

course.

“Gold’n Futures closed its oversubscribed $2.75 million brokered private placement in early

September after a summer of tough marketing through difficult times for the Canadian junior

mining market. Upon the closing, the Company wasted no time executing on the field

programs and placed its initial personnel on the property comprising two senior geologists

and well-experienced prospector. The team completed some important tasks such as the GPS

drill collar survey and an assessment and cataloguing of the massive core storage yard. Each

of these tasks have provide d essential information contributing to some of the Company’s

objectives including the completion of a current National Instrument 43-101 report”.

Commented, Stephen Wilkinson, President and CEO

On September 16th, Gold’n Futures reported engaging Goldspot Discoveries Corp. (“ GoldSpot”) to

develop a new exploration model and to define new high priority targets through artificial intelligence

programs. GoldSpot will begin its contracted work with an airborne geophysical survey utilizing its Multi-

Parameter Airborne Survey System ( “M-PASS”) with Triaxial Magnetic Gradiometer and VLF Platform .

The surveys will cover the entire 109 square kilometres of the Hercules property, flying approximately

1,200 line -kilometres with 100 -metre line spacing . During the first meeting between Gold’n Future s

management and Goldspot project managers, it was decided to upgrade the airborne geophysical

surveys to include (weather permitting) a LiDAR Sensor and Photogrammetry Camera System , and

radiometrics. Goldspot managers will be visiting the Hercules property in about 3 weeks to meet Gold’n

Futures site personnel.

During the second week of October, specially equipped drones were used to map in detail the veins

exposures of the Golden Mile, and the lesser-known zones of Hercules, including: the Yellow Brick Road;

and, Lucky Strike. The precise locations of the vein channel sample sites and the drill collars are the first

data points for the Company’s new geological model of the Hercules. In combination with GoldSpot’s

new property -wide geo physical surveys, Gold’n Future s will achieve an improved and greater

understanding of the gold-bearing zones through which we can expand the known resource areas while

also looking at the potential of new gold mineralized zones.

associated historical resources (see the note above regarding historical resources). Target

areas 1, 3, 4 & 5 for the pending drill program are also show on the plan.

Next Steps

Over the past months, the Company has been assessing the historical data and found occurrences

where drill core sampling has been incomplete. In addition, over the years of previous programs, the

drill logs have inconsistently identified rock types while not sampling all perspective zones. Our

geologists are relogging and sampling several of the old drill holes to correctly identify and sample

mineralized intervals and to prepare for the pending new drill campaign.

The Gold’n Future s drill permit was sub mitted to the Ontario Ministry of Northern Development and

Mines Natural Resources and Forestry, Mineral Development Branch in early August. Once the permit is

received, the Company intends to begin its dr ill program that is budgeted for initially 1,500m and up to

ten drill holes. The objective of the first round of drilling will be to infill and extend the resource areas

based upon findings of the Company’s reassessment of the historical data.

Coincidently with the drill program, it is anticipated that GoldSpot will be delivering its findings of the

airborne geophysical surveys. In addition, GoldSpot will be using its artificial intelligence algorithms to

reinterpret the Hercules property’s structural geology, resource geology, and geophysical surveys to put

together the highest priority targets for exploration and drilling and , over the coming months , present

its recommendations to Gold’n Futures.

The property lies within an Archean greenstone belt that extends from the Longlac area in the east to

Lake Nipigon in the west, a di stance of about 130 kilometres and consists of 475 contiguous claim cells

(10,052 ha). From the historical work completed on the property , the Company has built an extensive

database including reconnaissance grab samples; channel samples; a variety of geophysical surveys; and,

a drill hole database that includes historical drilling totalling in the order of 537 holes with more than

107,000m of drill core . With surface grab samples grading up to Grab samples up 10,374 g/t and

channel samples up to 32.96 g/t across 11.6 m , the Hercules gold zones offer top tier targets for the

expansion of its historical resources.
