Sable Receives up to 1,946.5 g/t Silver
Equivalent from 0.25 m Channel Sample from
Fierro Alto Zone
VANCOUVER
,
Sept. 15, 2020
/CNW/ - Sable Resources Ltd. ("Sable" or the "Company") (TSXV:
SAE) is pleased to announce that it has received new results from the Fierro Alto zone at the El
Fierro project in San Juan Argentina. More than 1.2 km of veining was mapped at Fierro Alto,
defining two parallel structures (F vein and G vein) each outcropping for over 500 metres and three
additional high-grade structures (J vein, K vein, and L vein) that will require further trenching for
definition along strike. The Fierro Alto zone is located 6 km west of the Fierro Bajo zone where high-
grade results were previously released by the Company (see Sable press release of
August 12,
2020
).

Ruben Padilla
, President and CEO of Sable commented, "These results confirm a second, well-
developed, high-grade vein zone at the El Fierro Project, with similar mineralisation to that identified
at Fierro Bajo six kilometres away. We consider these areas to be part of a larger gold-silver
mineralized district and preparations are currently underway to complete a geophysical survey to
define additional vein networks both adjacent to and along strike the current project areas."
Work completed at Fierro Alto consisted of 1:5,000 geological mapping and collection of 89 rock
samples which are presented in Table 1. Mineralization at Fierro Alto is associated with sericite-
silica-sulphide veins hosted within Carboniferous schists and Miocene ignimbrite flows. Results from
the 89 samples show individual values up to 1,070 g/t Ag; 3.57 g/t Au; 1.4% Zn; and multiple values
between 5% and 20% Pb, including five with >20% Pb.
The Company notes that selected grab samples are not necessarily representative of the
mineralization hosted at El Fierro. The channel samples highlighted above have been taken from
accessible places where the veins were not fully mined; grab samples were collected from waste
piles outside of the adits.
Maps and tables with the details of highlighted results are available on Sable's website (
www.sableresources.com
). Silver equivalent is calculated considering a 100% recovery and based
on prices of
USD17.89
per Oz for Silver;
USD 1,500
per Oz for Gold;
USD0.86
per pound for Lead;
USD1.08
per pound for Zinc; and
USD2.80
per pound for Copper; when a width is shown in the
results, the samples are channels perpendicular to the structures representing true width.
The El Fierro Project is located 250 km northwest of San Juan,
Argentina
and 120 km north of
Sable's Don Julio Project in one of the best-known historical mining districts in the San Juan
province. The El Fierro Project consists of two main known mineralized areas, Fierro Alto and Fierro
Bajo over a trend of 6 km. Both areas host a significant number of old mining workings where silver,
lead and zinc were intermittently mined since the late 1800's until the 1960s decade; the property
has never been drilled. Sable recently signed two option agreements covering 6,054 hectares and
the Company controls all the historically known mineralized zones at El Fierro (Sable PR,
May 14
th
,
2020).

SAMPLE PREPARATION AND QA/QC
Sample preparation for projects in
Argentina
is carried out by ALS Chemex Argentina, a subsidiary
of ALS Minerals, at its facility located in Mendoza,
Argentina
. Analyses are carried out at their
laboratory in
Lima, Peru
. Sample preparation includes drying in an oven at a maximum temperature
of 60°C, fine crushing of the sample to at least 70% passing less than 2 mm, sample splitting using a
riffle splitter, and pulverizing a 250 g split to at least 85% passing 75 microns (code PREP-31).
Gold was analyzed by fire assay of a 30 g sample split with detection by inductively coupled plasma
atomic emission spectrometer (ICP-AES); multi-elements were analyzed by an aqua regia digestion
of a 1 gram sub-sample with detection by inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometer
(ICP-AES) for 35 elements (Ag, Al, As, B, Ba, Be, Bi, Ca, Cd, Co, Cr, Cu, Fe, Ga, Hg, K, La, Mg,
Mn, Mo, Na, Ni, P, Pb, S, Sb, Sc, Sr, Th, Ti, Tl, U, V, W, Zn) (codes Au-ICP21 and ME-ICP41).
This digestion method dissolves most minerals but not all elements are quantitatively extracted in
some sample matrices. Over limit Ag, Cu, Pb, Zn OG46 analyses are conducted when samples
exceed the upper detection limits; this method includes Aqua Regia digestion and ICP-AES finish.
Method Ag-GRA21 which includes Fire Assay with gravimetric finish is applied when Ag exceeds
1,500 g/t. Control samples (standards, blanks, and duplicates) are inserted systematically and their
results evaluated according to the Company protocols.
