Sama Resources Reports on SRG Graphite’s Latest Drill Results

Highlights Indicate 16.5m @ 12.7% Cg and 15m @ 10.4% Cg

Montreal, Quebec, March 21, 2018 – SAMA Resources Inc. (TSXV: SME) (“SME” or the “Company”)

today reports that SRG Graphite Inc. (“SRG”) announced drill results from its ongoing drilling program at

SRG’s Lola graphite deposit in Guinea, West Africa. To date, 346 boreholes, totalling 9,600 meters (“m”),

have be en drilled on the property of which, 175 boreholes, totalling 4,698m, since the Company

announced its maiden resource on December 22nd, 2017.

Once completed, the 2018 drilling program will result in a coverage of approximately 35% of the total

surface area of the deposit as defined by geological mapping, a geophysical Max -Min survey and

previous drilling and pitting. See (Figure 1) With these results, along with upcoming results, SRG will

have gathered sufficient data to produce a Preliminary Economic Assessment and continue to

demonstrate the potential of the deposit.

A drilling contract was awarded to Foraco S.A., an experienced drilling contractor, to expedite the

completion of the 2018 drilling program. In addition, Foraco’s two drill rigs, SRG continues to contract the

Company’s drill rig for infill drilling and regional exploration due to its proximity, availability and cost

effectiveness.

Assay results, conducted by Activation Laboratories Ltd in Canada, have been received for 276 boreholes

out of the 346 drilled to date. Composite results for 73 boreholes are s hown in Table 1. Mineralized

intervals were defined using 1.0% Graphitic Carbon grade (“Cg”) as a cut-off grade while highlights were

defined using 3.0% Cg.

All boreholes were drilled at an inclination of 50 degrees from horizontal and cross -cut the geological

succession as perpendicular as possible. Th e graphitic paragneiss displayed foliation dipping between

80 and 85 degrees to the west.

Core logging and sampling were performed at SRG’s facility in the village of Lola. Sample preparation

was performed by Veritas Laboratory in Abidjan, Côte d’Ivoire. Pulp samples were delivered to Activation

Laboratories Ltd., Ancaster, Ontario, Canada. The samples were treated through a multistage furnac e

process to remove organic carbon and carbonate carbon. The remaining graphitic carbon was measured

as carbon dioxide in the infrared (“ IR”) cell as gas flowed through the cell. Carbon dioxide absorbs IR

energy at a precise wavelength within the IR spectr um. All analyses were performed using Eltra

instruments.
