JUGGERNAUT REPORTS DRILL RESULTS FROM MIDAS AND EMPIRE PROPERTIES

Vancouver, British Columbia – September 30 th, 2019 – Juggernaut Exploration Ltd. (JUGR.V)

(the “Company” or “Juggernaut”) is pleased to announce the results from its 2019 diamond

drilling program on its Midas and Empire properties.

Midas 2019 Drill Program:

Located 24 km southeast of Terrace, British Columbia . The 2019 drill program focused on

testing several VHMS targets within the King Solomon trend that were generated from the

compilation of the 2018 exploration program. This includes drill results, IP data, chip -grab-

channel sample geochemistry, soil geochemistry, detailed bedrock mapping, and whole rock

analysis of this prospective package of Paleozoic volcanics.

The 2019 drill program completed 9 drill holes (Figure 1) totaling 2548m and revealed several

zones confirming the presence of gold and base metals in a potential VHMS to orogenic gold

system near surface and at depth . These mineralized zones are typically associated with

strongly silica-sericite altered volcanics and can be associated with polymetallic quartz veining

throughout the King Solomon trend.

Drill Highlights:

• MD-19-18 intersected several mineralized gold to copper bearing zones hosted within

strongly silica -sericite altered volcanics including 6.22m of 0.313 g/t Au from 8.53 to

14.75m, 0.95m of 1.495 g/t Au with 1.940% Cu from 35.8 to 36.75m and 3.22m of

0.362 g/t Au from 93.83 to 97.05

• MD-19-19 intersected 1.8m of 1.87 g/t Au from 187.7 to 189.5 m indicating the

presence quartz-pyrite gold bearing veins at depth

• MD-19-21 displayed textures consistent with VHMS including a 0.5m interval of semi

massive to massive pyrite from 47 to 47.5m containing 0.213 g/t Au with 6.03 g/t Ag

and 0.368% Cu hosted within strongly sericite to silica altered rock

• At depth MD-19-21 encountered several metre-scale gold mineralized zones from 162.5

to 163.5, 187.7 to 188. 2 and 206 to 207m of 0.909 g/t Au, 0.965 g/t and 3.03 g/t Au

respectively

• MD-19-22 tested the core of a high chargeability IP anomaly due east of MD-18-16

(35.35m 0.21 g/t Au ). This hole intersected a large interval (97m) of silicified-sericite-

pyrite altered rock which explain ed the anomaly but did not encounter significant

mineralization. Further d own hole from the anomaly gold mineralization was

encountered for 4.92 m of 0.10 g/t Au from 324.22 to 329.14 in a separate zone of

strongly silicified-sericite altered rock.

Further compilation and study of all the available data is recommended to vector in on

new targets within the 2.1 x 1.6 km King Solomon Trend that remain to be drill tested.

King Solomon Zone Highlights

• The British Columbia Geological Survey ( BCGS; McKeown et al., 2007 ) mapped a

conformable sequence of layered Paleozoic felsic to mafic sub -aqueous volcaniclastic

rocks and documented an extensive alteration zone, with the King Solomon Trend at its

core for at least 2.1 kilometers.

o Intense alteration system with zones of widespread gossan development,

silicification, Fe -rich chloritic alteration, Na -Ca depletion, and quartz -sericite-

pyrite development.

o Additionally, the BCGS documented massive sulphide lenses, barite lenses and

veins, and stated the area southeast of Terrace is highly prospective for VHMS

deposits.

• Soil and rock sample geochemistry is consistent with a VHMS signature.

• Newly acquired and modeled MT and IP data shows large, strong chargeability and

resistivity anomalies at depth that can be traced across multiple IP lines.

• The 2018 drill holes on Midas intersected gold and polymetallic mineralization

o MD-18-16 intersected an intensely silicified mineralized zone grading 0.21 Au g/t

Au, 0.18 g/t Ag, 0.32 % Zn, 0.08 % Cu, 0.02 % Pb over 35.35 metres which we

believe may be the part of a VHMS system.

o The discovery of this new zone , located within a regional world class VHMS

setting, confirms the strong potential for the Midas property to host a significant

discovery.

Empire 2019 Drill Program:

The 2019 drilling program on Empire focused on testing two targets within the upper Rockstar

zone generated from the 2018 surficial grab samples and IP survey . Hole EM-19-19 tested a

near surface IP anomaly and did not intersect any significant mineralization or lithology ,

therefore the anomaly remains unexplained. The final hole (EM -19-20) intersected 4.7m of

1.173% Cu with 0.114 g/t Au from th e top of the hole. This hole tested the extent of

mineralization within a Quartz-Chalcopyrite breccia (See Table 3 for drill collar information).

Mr. Dan Stuart, Director, President and CEO of Juggernaut states:

The results of this program indicate there remains good potential for structurally controlled

and or VMHS mineralization to be discovered within the underexplored King Solomon trend

on the Midas property. The 2019 data will aid in planning for future drilling as we co ntinue to

gain a better understanding of the property.

Other

All samples were crushed and pulverized at ALS Global ISO 17025:2005 accredited geochemistry lab in

North Vancouver, BC. Drill core samples were crushed, split and pulverized to 250 g pulp. The sample

pulps were analyzed for gold by fire assay method (Au-AA24) and were also assayed using multi-element

aqua regia digestion. Samples were an alyzed using ALS assay procedure ME-ICP41m and MS -ICP61m.

ME-ICP is an aqua regia (partial) digestion with inductively -coupled plasma (ICP) mass atomic emission

spectroscopy (ICP-AES) finish for 3 6 elements. MS-ICP61m is a four acid digestion with ICP mass

spectrometry finish for 49 elements. Over-limit samples for copper, lead and zinc were reanalyzed by

fire assay with a gravimetric finish (OG46 and OG62). Rigorous procedures are in place regarding sample

collection, chain of custody and data entry. QA/QC samples including blanks, standards, and duplicate

samples were inserted regularly into the sample sequence.
