Queensland Gold Hills Drill Program Results at the Big Hill Gold Property in Queensland, Australia
Queensland Gold Hills Drill Program Results

Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - July 22, 2022) -
Queensland Gold Hills Corp. (TSXV:
OZAU) (OTCQB: MNNFF) (FSE: MB3)
("
Queensland Gold
" or the "
Company
") announces it has
received final assay results from the recently completed inaugural drill campaign at the Big Hill property,
located in the historic Talgai Goldfield of Queensland, Australia. The 11 hole (1,457m) reverse
circulation drilling program targeted extensions to mineralization below historic underground workings at
the Queenslander prospect, one of a number of high-grade historic mines in the Talgai Goldfield.
The drilling successfully demonstrated structural continuity of the mineralized vein system ~100m down
dip from the base of historical workings. Assay results returned from ALS-Global Brisbane showed
moderate-grade intercepts across the vein and altered wallrock, including 10m @ 0.49g/t Au from 97m
(BH013), but this initial, modest program did not intersect the higher-grade shoots reported in historical
production records.
Queensland Gold Hills CEO and Director, Blair Way, commented: "While our first drill program at Big Hill
did not intercept the grades we were targeting, we were successful in hitting the correct structures and
encountered mineralization below the historic workings, as expected. The information provided will be
extremely valuable as the team continues to analyze the multi-element geochemistry and vein geometry
in order to key in on vectors to higher grade mineralization which will be drill-tested in subsequent
programs at other targets on the property. We look forward to announcing upcoming plans and
discussing our evolving strategies as we look to demonstrate the extraordinary potential we see in the
Talgai Goldfields."

About Big Hill
The Big Hill Gold Property consists of a single Exploration Permit covering 24 square kilometres and
encloses two discrete granted mining leases. The permit covers the historic mines of Big Hill,
Queenslander, Monte Cristo and Sultan & Taylor of the Talgai Goldfield. Talgai is one of eight historical
Goldfields in the broader Warwick-Texas District, active in the late 19th century, which include Canal
Creek, Thanes Creek, Leyburn, Palgrave, Pikedale, Lucky Valley and MacDonald Goldfields. These
supported both alluvial and reef mining, with the Queenslander Mine distinguishing itself as the first lode
gold mine in the state of Queensland with a total production of 4.1Koz of gold at an average grade of
50g/t with some early crushings reported up to 4000g/t. The bulk of production in the historical mines in
the Warwick-Texas District occurred from initial discovery in 1864 until the early 1900s. Small-scale
activity continued during intermittent periods in the 20th century, with many of the larger historic mines
remaining under mining leases but with limited modern exploration to date.
About Queensland Gold Hills Corp.
Queensland Gold Hills is focused on conducting modern systematic exploration in the historic goldfields
of Queensland, Australia. Collectively, the Big Hill Gold Project and the Titan Project cover 110 square
kilometers and host 54 high-grade historical gold mines in the Talgai Goldfields of the broader Warwick-
Texas District.

in the forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are based on a number of material
factors and assumptions. Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in
forward-looking statements include failure to obtain necessary approvals, unsuccessful exploration
results, changes in project parameters as plans continue to be refined, results of future resource
