Scottie Resources Reports Intercepts 16.5 G/T GOLD over 10.0 Metres and 28.8 G/T GOLD over 4.94 Metres IN Northern Blueberry Zone Extension
SCOTTIE RESOURCES REPORTS INTERCEPTS 16.5 G/T GOLD OVER 10.0 METRES
AND 28.8 G/T GOLD OVER 4.94 METRES IN NORTHERN BLUEBERRY ZONE
EXTENSION
Vancouver, BC – October 7, 2021 – Scottie Resources Corp. (“Scottie” or the “Company”) (TSXV:
SCOT) is pleased to report additional new assays on the previously announced northern extension
of the Blueberry Zone, including intercepts of 16.5 g/t gold over 10.0 m etres and 28.8 g/t gold over
4.94 metres. Recent drilling at the Blueberry Zone has extended it to more than 550 metres in strike
length, and it remains open along strike and at depth (September 21, 2021). The Blueberry Zone is
located on the Granduc Road, 2 km north -northeast of the past-producing high-grade Scottie Gold
Mine, 35 kilometres north of the town of Stewart, BC.
“These additional high-grade hits on the northern extension of the Blueberry Zone confirm
that the structure has both grade and continuity .” comment s President and CEO , Brad
Rourke: “We continue to advance this zone by additional drilling holes along strike and down
dip from these strong results. So far this season our drilling has been quite successful in
increasing the size potential of the zone, adding hundreds of metres to the strike length . In
addition to being a high-grade near surface target, the access to the Blueberry Zone is what
sets it apart, existing alongside an all- season road is something truly unique in the Golden
Triangle.”

* True thicknesses of mineralized intercepts are undetermined
Following on successful drill results from 2020 – including intercepts of up to 22.3 g/t gold over 6.10
metres – drill targeting at the Blueberry Zone has focussed on testing the north -south contact
between andesitic rocks and siltstones of the Early Jurassic Hazelton Group and their relation to
intersecting ENE-trending pyrrhotite-rich veins. Detailed surficial mapping of the contact combined
with modelling of the subsurface mineralized structures identified in 2020, has been effective in
predicting the orientation and extent of the mineralized zone.
A total 5,000 metres of drilling has been allocated to testing the Blueberry Zone during the 2021
season, which has been drilled in two phases in order to utilize assays from phase 1 to refine targets
in phase 2. Drilled hole lengths vary between 40 and 320 metres, testing both near surface targets
as well as deeper plunging ore-shoots along the primary north-south structure.

About the Blueberry Zone
The 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 had only limited reported drilling prior to the Company’s exploration work . 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 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 drilling in 2021
aims to expand its strike length. The Blueberry Zone 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 2022 (August 10, 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.
