Scottie Resources Intercepts 11.8 G/T GOLD over 6.57 Metres and 37.2 G/T GOLD over 3.71 Metres at Scottie GOLD MINE Project and Provides Corporate Update
SCOTTIE RESOURCES INTERCEPTS 11.8 G/T GOLD OVER 6.57 METRES AND 37.2
G/T GOLD OVER 3.71 METRES AT SCOTTIE GOLD MINE PROJECT
AND PROVIDES CORPORATE UPDATE
Vancouver, BC – January 14 , 2022 – Scottie Resources Corp. (“Scottie” or the “ Company”)
(TSXV: SCOT), (OTCQB:SCTSF), (FSE:SR8) is pleased to report drill assays from its Scottie Gold
Mine (SGM) target. Due to the parallel nature of the targeted veins, individual holes were designed
to test multiple discreet targets. Highlight intercepts from the reported holes include: 11.8 g/t gold
over 6.57 metres, 20.6 g/t gold over 2.22 metres, and 37.2 g/t gold over 3.71 metres in the P, O, and
M-Zones respectively. The past-producing high-grade Scottie Gold Mine is located on the Granduc
Road, 35 kilometres north of the town of Stewart, BC , and is one of four primary targets that were
tested during the 14,500 m program in 2021 , which also includes the rapidly advancing Blueberry
Zone (November 9, 2021) .
“These results from Scottie Gold Mine illustrate the potential for the expansion of the historic
resource at Scottie through both the extension of known ore shoots, as well as revealing the
potential of previously untested targets – notably the P -zone which prior to Scottie ’s
involvement had seen no drilling, and now we are hitting intercepts comparable to the mined
stopes of the past producing mine. “ comments President and CEO , Brad Rourke . “The
Scottie Gold Mine target continues to deliver as a cornerstone to our primary goal of
developing a road accessible, 1M+ ounce high-grade gold resource at our Scottie Gold Mine
Project.”

About the Scottie Gold Mine
The Scottie Gold Mine, which operated between 1981 to 1985, produced 95,426 gold ounces from
183,147 tonnes at an average recovered grade of 16.2 g/t gold. The mine ultimately shut down due
to a drop in gold price combined with high- interest rates. Mineralization consists of east -west to
northwest trending, steeply dipping, shear veins, that are comprised of pyrrhotite > pyrite ± quartz ±
calcite. The veins are hosted in a package of andesitic volcanic rocks from the Hazelton Unuk River
Formation that are situated adjacent to the contact with the Summit Lake stock, part of the Texas
Creek Plutonic Suite. While 13 distinct gold-bearing vein zones have been identified on the Scottie
Gold Mine Project, mine production was primarily from one vein (the M-zone).
Historical drilling of the Scottie Gold Mine was largely focused on mine production, with litt le work
done on proving up substantial resources. The majority of historical drilling was done from
underground, and therefore consisted of short holes with single targets – with very restricted drill pad
locations. Recent exploration by Scottie has used the benefits of drilling from surface to target areas
that were inaccessible with underground drill locations, and where possible to test multiple targets
with individual holes . The Scottie Gold Mine is located on the Granduc Road, 20 km north of the
Ascot Resources’ Premier Project, which is in the process of refurbishing their mill in anticipation of
production in Q1 2023 (December 7, 2021).
Quality Assurance and Control
Results from samples during the 2021 field season were analyzed at either ALS Laboratory in
Vancouver, BC or at SGS Minerals in Burnaby, BC . The sampling program was undertaken 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 multi-element ICP-
AES analysis was conducted on all samples with silver and base metal over-limits being re-analyzed
by emission spectrometry.
