STELLAR AFRICAGOLD PREPARES 2023 DRILL CAMPAIGN AT TICHKA EST,
MOROCCO AND IDENTIFIES NEW EXPLORATION TARGETS; INVESTOR SITE VISITS
CONCLUDED
Montreal, December 16, 2022– Stellar AfricaGold Inc., (TSX-V: SPX) ("Stellar" or the "Company") is
pleased to announce that exploration activities are continuing at Tichka-Est gold project in the Atlas
Mountain region of Morocco.
2023 Diamond Drill Campaign
A field team composed of two experienced geologists and assistants is mapping the mineralization
exposed by recent road cuts, and after interpretation the geological model for Tichka Est will be updated
to include newly identified areas of gold mineralization including the significant gold mineralisation
related to the diorite sub-horizontal intrusion that is known to extend for several hundred meters.
As part of this mapping program the team is digging additional trenches to confirm the presence of gold
mineralisation identified in the extension of the diorite intrusion which will expand the 240-meter length
of the trench in the diorite sill (refer to news release of October 4th, 2022 - Gold Associated to Dioritic
Sill Grading 3.5 G/T Gold across a True Width of 155.7 Meters). Results of the current mapping and
sampling will be announced as soon as they are received, tabulated and interpreted.
As a reminder, Structure B was initially interpreted as N80° trending gold structure extending over two
kilometers along strike at the contact of limestone and schist. The contact is highly sheared and injected
by quartz-ankerite-calcite veins and veinlets with traces of pyrite, chalcopyrite and arsenopyrite.
Following the interpretation of the se most recent mapping and trench ing results, the Company will
finalized drill target identification and prepare for a diamond drill campaign in the second quarter of 2023.
New Targets for 2023 Exploration
Based on the recent mapping and sampling of recently identified gold mineralized structures, Stellar’s
geological team has prioritized two targets, the first located West of Zone B and interpreted as a n
extension of structure B diorite intrusion, and the second located north of Structure C. Below is a photo
of a recently discovered ’adit’ north of Structure C . Exploration teams are on site now and these two
structures will be mapped and sampled over the coming weeks , with the results of this program
anticipated in Q1 2023.

Tichka Est Gold Project on 13th of October, 2nd of November and 28th of November.
The purpose of the site visits was to better inform these groups of serious investors on the details of the
ongoing exploration activities at Structure A and Structure B, as well as the extension of the access road
construction works that is advancing towards Structure C.
