News Release
MURCHISON CONFIRMS ANOMALY D AS A PRIORITY DRILL TARGET
November 21, 2017 (Toronto, Ontario): Murchison Minerals Ltd. (the “Company”) (CSE: MUR) is pleased to
provide an update on its Anomaly D geophysical target (“Anomaly D”) located approximately 1 km south of the
Brabant-McKenzie high grade zinc-copper deposit (the “Deposit”) in North-Central Saskatchewan.
Project Update Highlights
1. Modeling and interpretation results of additional information for Anomaly D acquired from the November
2017 detailed ground electromagnetic (“EM”) and magnetic (“Mag”) surveys:
• Have further refined EM Anomaly D as a strong conductive body with minimum
dimensions of 800 m strike and 800 m depth extent, starting at approximately 20m below
surface
• Display a strong coincidence between high magnetic susceptibility anomalies and
Anomaly D conductivities
• Show similar conductivities and dimensions to the Deposit which is currently defined
over 1,000 m strike length and 610 m depth extent
2. Recent geological prospecting programs have identified chalcopyrite and pyrrhotite sulphide
mineralization in outcrop exposures (“Exposures”) proximal to Anomaly D (see press release September
18, 2017)
3. Grab samples of outcrop collected directly over the Exposures returned anomalous copper values.
The combination of Anomaly D conductor dimensions, conductivity and proximity to the Exposures hosting
anomalous copper values continues to demonstrate the potential for the existence of a massive sulphide body
of significant size.
President and CEO, Kent Pearson, stated: “The dimensions and strong conductivity of Anomaly D supported with
the evidence of visible surface mineralization and associated copper values continue to build our confidence in
the potential of this significant target. In particular, we are encouraged by the increasing similarities of Anomaly
D to the Brabant-McKenzie Deposit with respect to both the dimensions and strength of its conductivity. In
addition to our focus on the expansion of the Deposit towards our 9 to 11 million tonne exploration target with
a current grade ranging from 7.5-9.5 % Zn equivalent, Anomaly C and D add potential growth dimensions to the
project and are now priority targets. We look forward to testing both anomalies in our next phase of drilling
planned for the winter 2018.
Project Update Details
Anomaly D is located approximately 1 km south of the Deposit. Recently completed EM and Mag surveys over
Anomaly D show results that continue to identify a large, strong conductive body with coincident high magnetic
susceptibilities. The surveys consisted of 8.8 line km that were designed to cover the initial conductor and
mineralized outcrop exposures.

MURCHISON MINERALS LTD. NEWS RELEASE NOVEMBER 21, 2017
Evidence from these results continue to confirm Anomaly D as a significant target with strong conductivity values
greater than 2,000 siemens and similar to the Deposit, depth extent and strike length in the range of 800 m
beginning at approximately 20 m from surface. By comparison, the Brabant-McKenzie Deposit has dimensions
of 1 km strike length and 610 m depth extent that begins at surface.
In August 2017, a geological prospecting program proximal to Anomaly D’s surface projection was successful in
identifying Exposures of approximately 150 m in strike length which contained sulphide mineralization of
chalcopyrite and pyrrhotite. Results from rock geochemistry samples collected directly over the Exposures
returned anomalous values in copper ranging from 100 ppm to greater than 400 ppm.
The evidence of surface mineralization, copper geochemistry and its proximity to the Anomaly D combined with
the size and conductivity of this target is significant and continues to present the potential for a massive sulphide
body of size. In addition to its program for the Deposit, the Company plans to drill this target as well as the
Anomaly C in its next phase of drilling expected to begin in the winter of 2018.
Qualifying Statement
The foregoing scientific and technical disclosure have been reviewed by Kent Pearson P. Geo., Finley Bakker, P.
Geo. and Martin St-Pierre, P. Geo., qualified persons as defined by National Instrument 43-101. Mr. Bakker and
Mr. St-Pierre are independent consultants to Murchison Minerals Ltd. and the Brabant-McKenzie Project. Mr.

About the Brabant-McKenzie Project
The Brabant-McKenzie project is located 175 km Northeast of La Ronge, Saskatchewan and approximately 3 km
from the community of Brabant Lake. The area is accessed year round via Highway 102 and is serviced by grid
power. The project consists of 1 mining lease which hosts the Deposit and an additional 13 contiguous mineral
claims totaling 5,731 ha which cover approximately 16 km of strike length over favourable geological horizons,
multiple known mineralized showings and identified geophysical conductors.
The Brabant-McKenzie Deposit hosts an indicated 1.5 million tonnes grading 7.46% Zn, 0.70% Cu, 0.39% Pb,
31.16 g/t Ag, 10.09% Zn Eq and an inferred 4.5 million tonnes grading 5.99% Zn, 0.62% Cu, 0.39% Pb, 19.39 g/t
Ag, 7.99% Zn Eq.
