Serengeti Samples 6.50 g/t Au at Top Cat, North-central British Columbia
Vancouver, B.C., November 5, 2019. Serengeti Resources Inc. (SIR: TSX -V) ("Serengeti" or "the Company") is
pleased to report results from recent field mapping and prospecting at the Top Cat property, which is under option from
the Pinchi Group [see Serengeti press release dated July 23 rd, 2019 ] (the “Top Cat Option”). The Top Cat property
covers approximately 240 sq. km. in north-central BC . The property adjoins the western margin of Sun Metals' and
Teck's Lorraine claim groups. It lies approximately 10km north of the Lorraine copper-gold deposit.
Company geologists completed a mapping and sampling program at Top Cat in September, collecting 79 rock and 282
soil and stream sediment samples from six (6) prospective localities on the property. Copper mineralization, in t he form
of chalcopyrite and/or bornite, was observed at all six localities. Gold assays from trace to 6.50 g/t Au were returned from
the sampling. Serengeti plans a substantive follow-up IP and mapping/sampling program at Top Cat in 2020 to develop
future drill targets.

David Moore, President and CEO of S erengeti Resources stated : “We are pleased with the results of this year’s
exploration program which indicates multiple area of interest for follow -up in 2020. When combined with the Cat
Mountain target where historic drilling has intersected up to 1.1 g/t Au over 122 m, we view the large Top Cat property as
having district scale potential. Furthermore, the highly encouraging exploration results reported on our other properties
from this year’s work including at East Niv, Arjay -Goldway and Croy Bloom backed up by some strong geophysical
signatures, has identified some exciting drill targets for follow up in 2020.”

Haw-Dove-Raven Areas
The Haw-Dove-Raven area is located in the western portion of the Top Cat property along a western limb of strongly
magnetic intrusive rocks. The area is dominated by a megacrystic hornblende syenite which hosts a potassically-altered
megacrystic quartz monzonite plug . Outcrop grab and transect chip sampling in 2019 identified strong Au -Cu-Ag
mineralization within quartz-pyrite-Cu-sulphide veins (up to 6.50 g/t Au, 0.15% Cu and 13.4 g/t Ag; see Table 1, above) .
Furthermore, the 6.50 g/t Au sample also returned 0.69% tungsten whic h may indicate a link to a porphyry source of the
mineralization. In sample JP009, 0.27 % molybdenum is associated with a quartz boulder in float which also suggests a
possible porphyry link. The identified area of interest stretches roughly 900m, parallel to the magnetic anomaly.
Slide – Fox Areas
Slide - Fox is located in the center of the Top Cat property. It represents the northwestward extension of similar rocks
and strong magnetics on Teck’s adjacent property. Teck’s 2006 drilling returned up to 55.5m of 0.72% Cu from drilling
completed near the Top Cat boundary in 2006 (BCMEMPR Assessment Report 28944). Slide is positioned along an
eastern limb of laminated migmatitic monzodioritic to syenitic intrusive rocks that strike northwest and continue southeast
towards the Lorraine claim group.
Rocks at Slide are variably potassically altered with both biotite and K -Feldspar and disseminated chalcopyrite
occurrences parallel to banding within host intrusives as well as within cross -cutting syenite dykes. West of the main
Slide - Fox area, bornite and chalcocite occur within syenite dykelets hosted by migmatitic intrusive rocks. In the 2019
sampling program, the Company identified locally strong Cu-Au-Ag mineralization (trace up to 1.10% Cu, 0.13 g/t Au and
24.0 g/t Ag) in grab and transect chip sampling . The mineralization zone continues over approximately 1,600m in a
northwesterly direction parallel to the dominant magnetic anomaly.
The Fox area lies roughly 2,800m northwest of Slide . In 2019, sampling returned trace to 0.55% Cu, 0.27 g/t Au and 9.1
g/t Ag from boulder float located near the inferred contact between Duckling Creek syenite and hornblende diorite of the
Thane Creek suite.
Nova Area
The Nova area is located in the northern property area . It is largely overlain by till with local angular mineralized
magnetite-sulphide bearing pyroxenite boulders underlain by an intense magnetic anomaly measuring roughly 500m by
800m. Historical boulder samples assay up to 0.52% Cu, 0.327 g/t Au, 4.4 g/t Ag, 0.071 g/t Pt and 0.498 g/t Pd
(BCMEMPR Assessment Report 37051) . Boulder samples collected by the Company in 2019 assay up to 0.37% Cu,
0.58 g/t Au and 4.4 g/t Ag. Soil sampling completed by the Company in 2019 identified a strong Cu -Ag anomaly along
the fringes of the magnetic feature that may be related to mineralization within a buried pyroxenite body, which may be
the source of observed magnetic response.
Serengeti intends to follow up the 2019 mapping and sampling program at Top Cat with a program of induced-polarization
and additional mapping and sampling in 2020 in order to develop future drill targets.
Top Cat Agreement
On August 1, 2019 the TSX Venture Exchange granted acceptance of the Top Cat Option to acquire a 100% interest in
the claim group. Pursuant to the Option, the Company is required to spend a total of $1,250,000 in exploration work and
make a series of staged payments over 5 years, totaling $340,000 cash and 1,500,000 shares. Exchange acceptance
was received for the 500,000 share issuances payable upon signing, through to year 3. Further Exchange acceptance
will be required for shares issuances in years 4 and 5.
The Top Cat Option required a cash payment of $15,000 be made on or before October 31, 2019 . The Optionor agreed
to accept payment by the issuance of 83,333 common shares, at a deemed price of 0.18 per share in lieu of the cash
payment. This issuance will be deducted from the 200,000 issuance required in year 3 of the Top Cat Option. Exchange
acceptance will therefore be required for any issuances in years 3 through 5 of the Top Cat Option.

Ag; Au was determined by FA430, a lead collection, Fire Assay/AAS method using a 30 -gram sub-sample and has an
upper detection limit of 10 ppm Au. Overlimit Cu and Ag analyses were determined by MA370 which is an ore-grade ICP-
ES method following four -acid digestion and has a lower detection limit of 0.001% for Cu and 2 ppm for Ag ; overlimit Au
analyses were determined by FA530, a lead collection, Fire Assay/ gravimetric method using a 30 -gram sub-sample and
has a lower detection limit of 0.9 ppm Au. The field program was supervised by Serengeti Resources staff an d the
