Scottie Discovers New Mineralization Trend at Blueberry Zone, Reports Intercepts of 10.2 G/T GOLD over 3.21 M and 1.31 G/T over 22.13 M
SCOTTIE DISCOVERS NEW MINERALIZATION TREND AT BLUEBERRY ZONE,
REPORTS INTERCEPTS OF 10.2 G/T GOLD OVER 3.21 M AND 1.31 G/T OVER 22.13 M
Vancouver, BC – February 17, 2021 – Scottie Resources Corp. (“Scottie” or the “ Company”)
(TSXV: SCOT) is pleased to report new assay results for the Blueberry Zone, including intercepts of
10.2 g/t gold over 3.21 metres and 1.31 g/t over 22.13 metres. These intercepts further support the
existence of the N-S mineralizing system that was first discovered by Scottie in late 2019. The newly
defined trend remains open along strike and at depth, with extensive surface work establishing a
zone that exceeds 800 metres in strike length.
CEO, Bradley Rourke commented: “The Blueberry Zone continues to yield strong intercepts along
the newly defined N-S trend. Now that we have got a handle on the geometry of the system, drilling
in 2021 will focus on increasing the vertical and lateral extent of this zone. The road accessible, near
surface mineralization present at the Blueberry Zone complements the high-grade mineralization we
continue to discover around the Scottie Gold Mine, located just 2 km to the southwest.”

Blueberry Zone
The Bow Property’s Blueberry Zone is located just 2 km northeast of the 100% owned, past -
producing Scottie Gold Mine located in British Columbia, Canada’s Golden Triangle region. Historic
trenching and channel sampling of the Blueberry Vein include results of 103.94 g/t gold over 1.43
metres, and 203.75 g/t gold over 1.90 metres. Despite high-grade surficial samples and easy road
access, the Blueberry Vein has only limited reported drilling. The target was significantly advanced
during Scottie’s 2019 drill program when an interval grading 7.44 g/t gold over 34.78 metres was
intersected in a new splay off zone of the main Blueberry Vein. The drill results received so far in
2020, coupled with surficial mapping and sampling suggest that this splay is in fact a major N -S
mineralizing structure, of which the Blueberry Vein was only a secondary structure. This near surface
zone is much wider than pursued in previous exploration models and establishing the orientation and
continuity of it was a priority during the 2020 drill program. A total 1609 metres in 11 holes were
drilled into the Blueberry Zone during 2020. The Blueberry Zone is located on the Granduc Road, 20
km north of the Ascot Resources ’ Premier Mill, which has recently completed financing for
reactivation (Dec 10, 2020).

drilled during the 2020 field season, key intercepts, and the projection of the newly discovered N-S mineralizing
trend.
2021 Blueberry Exploration Program
The 2021 work program planned for
the Blueberry Zone includes
substantial drill s tep outs (>200 m)
along strike to test the continuity of the
recently defined N -S structure (Fig 1,
2). Additional drilling will test the
vertical extent of the successful
intercepts from 2019/2020. An induced
polarization survey (IP), as well as a
trenching program will be used to
further delineate targets within the
mineralized corridor.

This release constitutes the final release of drillholes from the 2020 drill program. Any outstanding
drill holes between SR20- 21 and -66 (2020 drilling) that were not explicitly described in the news
releases between October 6, 2020 and this release, yielded no significant results.
Quality Assurance and Control
Results from samples were analyzed at MSALABS in Langley, Canada (an ISO 9001 accredited
facility). The sampling program was undertaken by Company personnel under the direction of Dr.
Thomas Mumford. A secure chain of custody is maintained in transporting and storing of all samples.
Gold was assayed using a fire assay with atomic absorption spectrometry and gravimetric finish
when required (+ 9 g/t Au). Analysis by four acid digestion with 48 element ICP -MS analysis was
conducted on all samples with silver and base metal over -limits be ing re -analyzed by emission
spectrometry.
Thomas Mumford, Ph.D., P.Geo and VP Exploration of Scottie, a qualified person under National
Instrument 43-101, has reviewed the technical information contained in this news release on behalf
of the Company.
