Mike Taylor, CEO to Provide Gold Presentation at PDAC on Tuesday, March

7, 2023 at 10:40 AM

For Immediate Release, March 6, 2023

Miramichi, New Brunswick, ‐ SLAM Exploration Ltd. (“SLAM” or the “Company” on TSXV: SXL)

is pleased to announce that it has acquired the 52 unit “Highway Gold Project” by staking 2 mineral claims

that cover 3 known mineral occurrences located on provincial highway 7 near Nerepis in southern New

Brunswick. Previous workers detected gold as well as cobalt, silver, zinc, copper, tin and tungsten minerals

associated with magnetic and soil geochemical anomalies over major cross -cutting fault zones. This

structural setting is similar to the Clarence stream gold deposit 55 km to the southwest where Galway Metals

Inc. has identified a 2.3 million ounce gold resource.

PDAC Presentation – Canada’s Atlantic Edge Program: SLAM President & CEO Mike Taylor will do

a powerpoint presentation under the title “Gold Projects in New Brunswick”. The presentation will highlight

recent new gold discoveries on SLAM’s Jake Lee project as well as 2023 plans for the Jake Lee and

Menneval gold projects. Location: Ballroom A - Lower Level – Intercontinental Hotel, 225 Front Street,

Toronto. Time 10:40AM. Date. Tuesday, March 7, 2023.

The Highway Gold Project: Gold occurs in polymetallic skarns as well as quartz veins associated with 3

mineral occurrences known as the West Lake gold skarn (URN 1407) , the West Brook zinc skarn (URN

324), and the Deep Lake polymetallic skarn occurrence. Previous workers several holes including one 8.8

m core interval that averaged 0.66 g/t gold at West Lake and 8.3% zinc 17.8 g/t silver, 0.686 g/t gold over

3.01 m at West Brook. They drilled significant cobalt at Deep Lake with one sulphide-rich core interval

grading 0.61% cobalt over 0.36 m . SLAM is compiling the previous work data in preparation for a

prospecting program to be conducted early in the 2023 exploration season in conjunction with the program

planned at its wholly-owned Jake Lee gold project located 25 km to the southwest.

The Wedge Property Agreement: The Company received a down-payment of $10,000 cash and 100,000

common shares from Nine Mile Metals Inc. (“Nine Mile”) upon execution of the Wedge property

agreement. To earn a 100% interest, Nine Mile must pay an additional $140,000 cash and issue an additional

1,100,000 common shares to SLAM over a four year period. SLAM retains a 2% Net Smelter Return royalty

(“NSR”) on future mineral production from the lands beneath these mineral claims. Half of this royalty can

be purchased by Nine Mile at a price of $1 million at any future time. The Wedge property was formerly

referenced by SLAM as the Lower 44 project.

Goodwin Lake Agreement: As reported February 21, 2023, the Company received the initial payment of

500,000 common shares of QNB Metals Inc. (“QNB”) due upon signing the Goodwin Lake Property Option

Agreement dated January 20, 2023. To earn a 100% interest in the Goodwin Lake project, QNB must issue

2

SLAM an additional 1,900,000 common shares and pay SLAM $250,000 cash over a 4-year period. SLAM

will retain a 2% NSR royalty subject to buy-back of 1% NSR in return for $1,000,000.

The Jake L ee Gold Project: The Company has permits in place for a potential trenching and drilling

program at Jake Lee where the Company reporte d the discovery of 3 boulders grading 39.300 g/t gold,

3.390 g/t gold and 2.420 g/t gold respectively within a 10 m radius on January 25, 2023 . An additional

boulder of sub-angular quartz grading 1.49 g/t gold was discovered 250 m to the north. SLAM intends to

mobilize an excavator for a trenching program to launch its 2023 exploration program as soo n as weather

permits.

The Jake Lee gold project comprises 6 mineral claims covering 9,499 hectares spread over a 20 km stretch

of volcano-sedimentary rocks along the Wheaton Brook and Belleisle Bay fault zones. Five of the 6 mineral

claims are wholly owned by SLAM. The R oger Lake claim is subject to com pletion of cash and share

payments over a 4-year period and a 2% NSR royalty. The Company may purchase one half of the royalty

for $1,000,000 at any time and the remaining half of the roya lty for $2,000,000 at any time ( news release

Nov 2, 2022 ).

Elevated gold ranging from 0.010 to 0.173 g/t gold occurs in 121 samples from a soil geochemical survey

of 1904 samples collected on the Roger Lake claim in 2021. In addition one soil sample assayed 16.200 g/t

gold. These gold targets are associated with volcano -sedimentary and intrusive rocks that straddl e the

Belleisle Bay fault zone. The Lepreau river placer gold occurrence (reference 563, New Brunswick Mineral

Occurrence database) also lies within the Roger Lake claim. To see maps and related information about the
