Ridgeline Minerals Commences 3,500 Meter Infill
and Step-Out Drill Program at the Selena Oxide
Silver-Gold Project
Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - May 4, 2021) - Ridgeline Minerals Corp. (TSXV: RDG)
(OTCQB: RDGMF) (FSE: 0GC0) ("Ridgeline" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has
mobilized a reverse circulation (RC) drill rig to its Selena project located in White Pine County, Nevada. The
primary focus of the Phase IV drill program (3,500 meters) is to further define the potential scale of the
shallow-oxide, silver-gold discovery as the Company advances the project towards a maiden resource in late
2022. The program will consist of 15-17 infill and step-out drillholes across the more than two kilometers
("km") of drill defined strike (see February 8, 2021 Press Release) between the Company's new discovery
and the Sonic target located approximately 1.3 km to the north. (Figure 1).
Mike Harp, Ridgeline's Vice President, Exploration commented, "we are excited to get back out to the field
and continue expanding the shallow-oxide, silver-gold footprint at Selena with our most aggressive drill
program to-date. A mix of infill and step-out drilling will selectively target high-grade mineralization within the
known mineralized footprint as well as the projection of shallower mineralization to the north of our known
discovery at the highly prospective Sonic target, already host to shallow historical drill intercepts."

Selena Project
Selena is located in White Pine County, approximately 64 km north of the town of Ely, Nevada, and 12 km
southeast of the Kinross owned and operated Bald Mountain Gold Mine. The 100% owned property is
comprised of 35 square kilometers of highly prospective exploration ground, which has seen limited (View the
Selena VRIFY Deck Here) exploration activity over the past twenty years prior to being acquired by Ridgeline
in 2019.
QAQC Procedures
All samples are submitted to Paragon Geochemical Assay Laboratories (PAL) of Sparks, NV, which is a
certified and accredited laboratory, independent of the Company. Samples are run through standard prep
methods and analysed using AU-OES30 (Au; 30g fire assay AQR digest/ICP+10ppb Hg by MS) and 34MA-
OESm (35 element Suite; 0.5g 4-acid digestion/ICP-MS; + 10ppb Hg) methods. PAL also undertakes its own
internal coarse and pulp duplicate analysis to ensure proper sample preparation and equipment calibration.
Ridgeline's QA/QC program includes regular insertion of CRM standards, duplicates, and blanks into the
