66 RESOURCES CORP. COMPLETES FOLLOW-UP WORK ON

THE CHAMP PROPERTY GOLD PROJECT

October 24, 2018 – 66 Resources Corp. (CSE:SXX) 66 Resources Corp. (the "Company") conducted a

second work programme on the Champ Property, located 12 kilometres south of Castlegar, BC, during

October and November of 2018.

A total of 16,050 meters of GPS located and hip-chained grid was surveyed. The North Grid was

extended to the east, two lines were added to the south grid – one on the northern margin and one on

the southern margin, and three 1,000-meter grid lines were surveyed on South Grid 2. The new road-

cut showing was trenched, mapped, and sampled as were new areas uncovered by recent logging

activity.

In total, 576 soil samples and 35 rock samples were taken on the property during the 2018 programme.

Mineralization present on the property consists of quartz-sulphide and/or replacement veins that are

considered to be intrusion related. Minerals present include pyrite and/or pyrrhotite, chalcopyrite,

sphalerite, galena, arsenopyrite. Emplacement of sulphide mineralization is interpreted to occur in a

mesothermal environment of deposition (medium temperature and pressure). The best gold values

returned from rock samples correlate with increased copper and silver values.

The mineral zones present on the property are related to major north trending normal faults and

northwest and northeast trending, steep to moderately dipping conjugate faults. The faults are

characterized by clay minerals and increased sulphides.

Some of these altered faults host veins/veinlets of quartz-carbonate, often containing sphalerite, galena,

pyrite, pyrrhotite, chalcopyrite, and arsenopyrite. Quartz-carbonate-sulphide mineralization found on

the Champ property is emplaced along faults and fractures, such as the Champion Lake Fault (related to

the Republic Graben), which formed during Eocene extensional tectonics. The Republic Graben has

numerous base and precious mineral deposits related to the major fault structure.

In the roadcut showing area, sampling in 2017 returned anomalous gold of 0.711 g/t within sericitized

pyrrhotite-pyrite mineralization. In 2018 this area was hand-trenched and mapped in section. The

samples taken in this area in were primarily chips along the plane of the veneer. Sample 440763

returned 0.653 g/t Au and 24.3 g/t Ag respectively. Further prospecting and sampling is justified to

determine the potential continuation of this mineralized structure.

At the Champ showing, a small decline shaft excavation also described as a pit is located on a southeast

facing forested slope. A dump fan of waste material, approximately 6m sq is composed of dominantly

coarse-grained granodiorite with sporadic quartz-pyrite gossanous waste rock (19% pyrite with trace

sphalerite and chalcopyrite), a sample of this material (440772) returned 0.143 g/t Au and 4.4 g/t Ag.

The entrance to the decline shaft is 2m by 2m, driven down dip on two veins, with one tracing the

decline ramp and one semi-parallel to the ceiling. Veins are subparallel, converging in a southwest

direction, with a general northwest striking direction.

A chip across the eastern exposure of these lower veins assayed 0.3 g/t Au and 12.2 g/t Ag and is a

promising occurrence which requires further investigation by trenching and shallow surface drilling.

Geochemical results from the north grid identify several elevated gold values which show a correlation

with silver. These values range from 31-100 ppb Au. A 100 ppb Au in soil taken at 54700N-55900E

coincides with rock chip sample 440782 that contains 52 ppb Au and 269 ppm Cu, and 97 ppm Zn.

Several anomalous samples are located in the northeastern section of the grid and require follow-up

geological sampling.

A new grid was surveyed to the south of the Dirty Jack Minfile showing with several soil samples

returning highly anomalous gold of up to 195 ppb Au.

Elevated gold in soil samples displays a correlation with silver and coincides with gold-bearing rock ship

sample locations. Several soil anomalies are present on the property and should be tested by trenching.

To date, several styles of gold and gold-sulphide mineralization have been discovered on the property

which are related to either emplacement of the intermediate Middle Jurassic stocks or to the late

Tertiary-age extensional faulting and related dykes.

Quartz veining, with minor sulphides and gold values is associated with many generally north to

northwest trending fault structures. These structures cut all units and commonly have Tertiary age dykes

associated with them. In contrast with the earlier, more sulphide-rich veins, these quartz veins/fracture

zones have features indicating much higher levels of emplacement: brittle structures, locally stockwork

style mineralization, open spaces and druse quartz. Gold content is locally high, with values to 3300 ppb

Au.

The company is currently reviewing it’s options.
