Drilling To Test Multiple Gold Veins
For Release 9:00 AM, EST, August 31, 2022
Miramichi, New Brunswick ‐ SLAM Exploration Ltd. (“SLAM” or the “ Company” on TSXV: SXL ) is
pleased to announce that it has entered into a contract for a drilling program on its wholly -owned
Menneval gold project located in the mineral -rich province of New Brunswick, Canada. The Company
intends to drill approximately 10 holes in a program esti mated at 1,000 metres to test 2 gold zones
discovered by SLAM in 2020-2021
The Company intends to drill up to 6 holes on Zone 18. These holes are planned to test for extensions
beneath core intervals grading up to 162.5 g/t gold over 0.2 m and 56.50 g/t gold over 0.51 m associated
with visible gold in holes reported by the Company on December 03, 2020 and January 20, 2021 .
Previously, the Company had announced multiple sites of visible gold with assays up to 3,955 g/t gold
over 0.10 m thick from trench samples reported on December 03, 2020.
SLAM intends to drill 4 holes on Zone 22 , where the Company reported drilled core intervals grading up
to 5.40 g/t gold over 0.2 m on December 03, 2020 . Each of the Zone 22 holes will test multiple quartz
veins that are part of a series of gold-bearing veins trending north-easterly over a strike-length of 1,400
m. The Zone 22 veins are associated with a soil anomaly ranging from 5 to 206 ppb (0.206 g/t) gold that
stretches 2,800 metres eastward from vein No. 18. For additional information and maps, please visit the
following page on the Company’s website: Menneval Gold Project or call Mike Taylor 506-623-8960.
Gold Anomalies at Jake Lee: The Company is reporting that gold was detected in 136 soil samples with
assays ranging from 5 ppb to 177 ppb gold on its wholly owned Jake Lee project in southwestern New
Brunswick, Canada. The samples were part of a soil geochemical survey of 1477 samples collected fro m
5 grids located on its wholly owned Jake Lee gold project. The Jake Lee project is comprised of 377 units
in 5 claims that cover 8376 hectares located 30 km southeast of the Clarence Stream gold deposit where
Galway Metals has reported a series of recent gold discoveries in the mineral- rich province of New
Brunswick. Galway Metals has reported that some of these gold discoveries resulted from the detection
of gold anomalies by soil geochemistry followed by trenching and diamond drilling.
Gold Anomalies at Portage: The Company also reports that gold assays ranging from 5 ppb to 139 ppb
was detected in 179 soil samples from a geochemical survey comprising 759 soil samples collected on its
wholly owned Portage VMS project in the Bathurst Mining Camp of New Brunswick, Canada. These gold
anomalies are associated with a northerly trending structure located approximately 20 km east of the
Williams Brook gold occurrence where Puma Resources Inc. recently reported new gold discoveries.
Some Portage soils sampl es also contain up to 112 ppm cobalt, 171 ppm copper, 1 77 ppm nickel, 81
ppm lead and 478 ppm zinc reflecting the poly-metallic potential on SLAM’s Portage project as well as its
other wholly-owned mineral claims in the Bathurst Mining Camp.

$30,000 NBJMAP Grant: The Menneval drilling program will be supported in part by a grant of $ 30,000
under the New Brunswick Junior Mining Assistance Program (“NBJMAP”). The Company wishes to thank
the Province for its continued recognition of the Menneval project an d its importance to the emerging
gold industry in New Brunswick.
The Menneval Project: The Company drilled 20 holes to complete the 2021 exploration program on gold
veins discovered in 2020 -2021 on its flagship Menneval Gold project . The property is comprised of 572
mineral claim units covering 1 2,390 hectares located in northwestern New Brunswick . The Company
holds a 100% interest i n 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.

QA‐QC Procedures: Drill core was picked up at the core at the drill site and delivered to a secure facility
for logging by SLAM’s professional team . Selected core was marked for sampling and for sawing. The
company inserted blank s and standards into the sample series. Samples were sent either to AGAT
Laboratories (“AGAT”) or to ALS Geochemistry(“ALS”) for gold analysis under analytical code 202-051 for
AGAT and code Au-AA23 for ALS. Sample above 10 g/t gold were re-analyzed using gravimetric methods.
For soil geochemistry, sample of the B1 soil horizon were collected at a spacing of 25 m along lines 100
m or 200 m apart using a Garmin GPS for control. Portage samples were submitted to AGAT for multi-
element analysis by Aqua Regia Digest / ICP -OES Finish and for gold analysis using method 202-051 Au
Fire Assay - AA (30g). The Jake lee soil samples were submitted to ALS and analysed for gold under code
Au-AA23-30g.
