SLAM STAKES NEW CLAIM NEAR GOLD DISCOVERY
SLAM Exploration Particip ating In New Brunswick Appalachian Gold Plays
For Release 7:45 EST, June 23, 2021
Miramichi, New Brunswick ‐ SLAM Exploration Ltd. ( “SLAM” or the “ Company” on TSXV: SXL )
announces it recently expanded its Jake Lee mineral claims adjacent to a new gold discovery reported by
Edge Exploration Inc. (“Edge”), a private New Brunswick company . Edge r eported gold grading 4.8 g/t
(“grams/tonne”) and greater than 5 .0 g/t gold respectively in two overburden drill holes 420m apart
within a 5,000 m long anomalous trend. For more information about this discovery Edge’s news release
is posted at http://edgexploration.com/edge- news/. The new discoveries are adjacent to SLAM’s 100%
owned Jake Lee project and 25 kilometres southeast of the Clarence Stream gold deposit where Galway
Metals Corp. (TSXV: GWM) recently reported a series of new gold discoveries.
SLAM President & CEO Mike Taylor states, “Congratulations to Dallas Davis and the Edge team on this
significant new gold discovery in the mineral- rich province of New Brunswick. These discoveries in the
vicinity of the Wheaton Bay fault are further evidence for gold in association with Appalachian
structures in Atlantic Canada and suggest that New Brunswick has potential similar to recent discoveries
by New Found Gold Corp. (TSXV: NFG) and others in Newfoundland.”
This new gold discovery is associated with the Wheaton Bay fault, a regional Appalachian structure that
trends easterly through SLAM’s Jake L ee mineral claims. Previous workers discovered one boulder with
visible gold and a second boulder grading 302.5 g/t gold in the vicinity of th e Wheaton Bay fault to the
east of SLAM’s property. The potential source area for these boulders could lie within the Jake Lee claim
boundary.
The Company expanded the Jake Lee property southwestward by acquiring an additional 100 unit claim.
The expanded property now covers 8937 hectares stretching over 25 kilometres in the vicinity of the
Wheaton Bay fault and other favourable Appalachian structures. The Company intends to complete a
soil geochemical survey on a portion of the Jake Lee property to test the potential trend of the new gold
discoveries as well as the potential source of gold boulders known to occur on adjacent claims.
Menneval Project Update: Trenching is in progress on SLAM’s flagship Menneval Gold project . The
Company has uncovered a trail of quartz boulders with a series of trenches over a 600 m strike length
along soil trend A. The source of these boulders is likely a set of 3 veins discovered 600 m east of Zone 9
near the end of the 2020 season. The Company followed one of these veins over a 30 m strike length
and it is open in both directions. The 0.2 m wide vein is mineralized with pyrite and goethite blebs and
limonite in fractures. The Company will continue trenching to follow these veins along strike to the
northeast a nd then to the southwest toward Zone 9. Once the full extent of the vein system is
determined by trenching, the Company expects to follow up with a diamond drilling program. Targets
2
include veins No 2 and No 18 both with visible gold. No. 2 returned grad es up to 351 g/t gold from grab
samples and No. 18 returned grades up to 3955 g/t gold over 0.1 m from chip samples.
The Menneval property is comprised of 572 mineral claim units covering 1 2,390 hectares located in
northwestern New Brunswick. The Company holds a 100% interest in these claims with the exception of
4 claim units covering 105 hectares that are subject to a 1.5% NSR. The Company can buy down 0.5% of
the NSR for $500,000 and it has the right of first refusal on the remaining 1% NSR.
Appalachian Gold Structure Model: The Menneval gold discoveries occur on the flank of a major
Appalachian structure known as the Restigouche fault. Most other g old deposits in New Brunswick are
associated with similar Appalachian structures such as the Millstream Break, Sawyer Brook and
Wheaton Bay f aults. Major Appalachian structures are associated with t he Valentine, Moosehead ,
Queensway and many other gold deposits in Newfoundland, with the Haile gold mine in South Carolina
and with the Dalradian gold project in Ireland. Other New Brunswick examples supporting this
Appalachian gold structure m odel include gold discoveries by Puma Exploration Inc. (TSXV:PUMA) near
the Mi llstream Break and by Galway Metals Inc. ( TSXV:GWM) near the Sawyer Brook fault. The same
model applies to past and recent gold discoveries near SLAM’s Jake Lee property along the Wheaton Bay
fault.
