Thunder Bay, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - November 29, 2023) -

Metals Creek Resources

Corp. (TSXV: MEK) (FSE: M1C1) (the "Company" or Metals Creek)

is pleased to announce

additional results from mechanical surface trenching on the Shabaqua Corners Gold Property (SCGP).

Channel sample results from the recently completed trenching program (See MEK news release dated

September 7, 2023) targeting multiple prospective gold targets have been received for the recently

discovered Echo Zone (EZ). (See MEK news release dated August 16, 2023).

Highlights include 1.04

grams per tonne (g/t) gold (Au) over 18.70 meters (m)

in continuous channel sampling.

Mineralization is hosted within pervasive iron carbonate/silicified altered greywacke with associated

0.25 to 3 percent pyrite +/- arsenopyrite and cross-cutting quartz-carbonate stringers and veins. The

main stratigraphy hosting the gold mineralization is striking roughly 100 to 110 degrees with dips

essentially vertical, similar to other parts of the Shebandowan Greenstone Belt. Quartz-carbonate veins

and stockwork crosscut stratigraphy striking SW @ approximately 230 degrees and predominately dip

to the NW at various inclinations including occasional flat laying veins. In addition,

grab samples

consisting mainly of quartz-carbonate vein material at Echo assayed up to 18.4 g/t Au

.(See

Figure 1)

(Note: The surface grab samples described in this news release are selective by nature and

are unlikely to represent average grades of the property.)

Prospecting and mechanical trenching on the SCGP have resulted in the discovery of several new zones

and styles of gold mineralization. It has become evident within several zones of mineralization (Echo

Zone, Main Zone) that an alteration halo consisting mainly of iron carbonate and silicification ranging

from 50 to 100m in width forms part of a mineralized trend across the whole property. The presence of

quartz veinlets/stringers as well as cubic pyrite +/- arsenopyrite appears to be a key indicator for gold

mineralization. Higher concentrations of quartz-carbonate vein stockworks and pyrite have a strong

correlation for higher gold grades, however even without any quartz veinlets present, the host rock within

this alteration halo can still contain anomalous gold. Gold mineralization on the property has similar

characteristics to that of gold mineralization to the east of the Shabaqua Corners Gold Property (SCGP)

with the presence of quartz-carbonate stockworks with multiple generations of quartz veins, pervasive

carbonatization, mineralization at or near volcanic/sedimentary contact and similar style mineralization

(pyrite and arseonopyrite).

The property is located within the Shebandowan Greenstone Belt, approximately 54 km west of Thunder

Bay, Ontario near Shabaqua Corners and on trend to Delta Resources Delta 1 project. The property has

seen very little exploration work.

Alexander (Sandy) Stares, President and CEO of Metals Creek, states, "

With the limited amount of

exploration work that has been historically performed in this portion of the Shebandowan Greenstone

Belt, we are highly encouraged about the exploration potential

for additional discoveries based on our

new gold discoveries to date over a short period of time."

The eastern boundary of the property is located 1.57 kilometers(km) west of Delta Resources (DLTA)

drill hole DL-22-18 which returned an intercept of 5.92 g/t Au over 31m (Source: Delta New Release

October 31, 2022). Trenching conducted on Delta's ground 390m east of the property boundary,

returned an interval of 2.22 g/t Au over 8m (Source: Delta Resources Website).

All samples were sent to Activation Laboratories.

The precious metals were analyzed utilizing a standard

fire assay with an atomic absorption finish. Samples with fire assay results above 1.0 g/t gold are re-

analyzed using a gravimetric finish and samples with fire assay results above 5.0 g/t gold or samples

showing visible gold are analyzed using the pulp metallic method.

In addition, the Company is re-evaluating its 85% owned Tillex Copper Project, located in Currie

Township, 65 km east of Timmins, Ontario. The Tillex Copper Deposit demonstrates near surface

potential with the majority of the mineralization within 150m of surface. The Kidd Creek base metal mill is

located 45 kilometers by road from the deposit.

With Canada's Critical Minerals Strategy for Canada to become a global supplier of choice for critical

minerals, as well as the recent rise in the price and demand for copper, the Company has decided to

further evaluate the prospect of potentially drilling additional holes within the historic Tillex Copper

Deposit. A near surface non 43-101 compliant mineral resource of 1,338,000 tonnes grading 1.56% Cu

was calculated in 1990 for the Tillex Deposit (Pacifica Resources Ltd., 2005-6 Canadian Mines

Handbook, page 318), however management notes that this calculation does not meet the standards as

outlined in National Instrument 43-101, "Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects", and has not been

independently validated or verified by the Corporation, and should not be relied upon.

Metals Creek embarked on two small but successful drill programs on the Tillex Copper Deposit, one in

2008 and the latest one in 2011. Select highlights from this drilling is in the Table 1 below.
