Sixty North Gold Announces Four Distinct Drill Targets For Its Silver- And Gold-Rich VMS Deposits From Preliminary Results Of Mira Geoscience Review

SIXTY NORTH GOLD ANNOUNCES FOUR DISTINCT DRILL TARGETS FOR ITS SILVER- AND GOLD-RICH VMS

DEPOSITS FROM PRELIMINARY RESULTS OF MIRA GEOSCIENCE REVIEW

Vancouver – October 14, 2020 – Sixty North Gold Mining Ltd. (the “Company” or “ Sixty North Gold”)

(CSE: SXTY) (OTC -Pink: SXNTF) (FKT: 2F4) Sixty North Gold is pleased to announce that it has received

preliminary results on a review of our 2019 VTEM Plus © airborne survey from Mira Geoscience. Dave

Webb states “It is very exciting to have identified four distinct drill targets on the property. Mi ra

Geoscience has the tools and experience to help us focus on bigger and better geophysical targets within

favourable rocks that have been shown in places to host economically significant grades. Our proximity

to power and transportation makes these viab le exploration targets and the company is currently

permitted to drill test these.”

Trenching had identified a 240 m long zone of massive and disseminated sulphides that returned trench

assays including 0.45m of 203 gpt silver, 1.0 gpt gold, 0.59% lead and 0.96% zinc and 1.0 m of 82 gpt silver,

1.2 gpt gold, 0.26% lead and 0.02% zinc (see NR October 17, 2019) from volcanogenic massive sulphides

(“VMS”). The geophysical survey was designed to identify the extent and potential of our newly

discovered gold and silver-rich VMS deposit, particularly in areas covered by swamps or lakes.

Mira’s review is ongoing, however preliminary results have focused on three distinct areas , each area

covering potential VMS mineralization. None of the targets are exposed. The conductors are all

conformable to semi-conformable conductors within favourable stratigraphy, two of which are associated

with magnetic anomalies. There are very encouraging lithogeochemical and/or biogeochemical

anomalies proximal to these targets.

The 5757 Target is a newly recognized target. It is a relatively strong 45 m long conductor with a steep

westward dip, parallel to the enclosing felsic to intermediate volcanic rocks. It extends to depth and is

associated with a 250 m by 200 m magnetic low, elongated in the strike direction in the footwall rocks .

This localized magnetic low is believed to represent a magnetite -destructive hydrothermal alteration

zone. Strong Cu, Pb, Zn, Ag, and Hg lithogeochemical anomalies occur within 200 m.

The 6247 Target occurs 1 km to the south of 5757 within the same felsic to intermediate volcanic rocks.

It is a local conductivity high within a 1,000 m long trend of conductors which seems to define the

boundary between two types of volcanic units. The conductor dip s steeply east and is conformable to

the contact in this area and is not associated with any discrete magnetic anomalies. Biogeochemical

samples in this area are elevated in Hg, Sb, As, and Cu and rocks samples near this anomaly have

anomalous Cu, Zn, and Ag.

The 6548 Target occurs approximately 300 m east of 6247 within quartz feldspar porphyry and crystal and

crystal-lithic tuffs. It is a conductivity high in a 900 m long trend of conductors aligned with a lithological

contact. The conductor is modeled to be about 80m below the surface in an area mapped as a swamp. It

appears as an extensive strong conductor aligned with strike dipping steeply to the east. A compact and

very subtle magnetic high, measuring about 100m by 50m, is associated with the conductor, offset slightly

in the dip direction.

The 5750 Target sits about 30m below a lake surface and is a relatively strong EM conductor approximately

175 m long within mixed pelitic and intermediate tuffs stratigraphically on top of felsic tuffs. It dips to the

west associated with a low magnetic signature. A stronger conductive portion is associated with a local

magnetic high 200m in strike length but with the magnetic high centered slightly south of the conductor.

The anomaly is believed to represent an exhalative setting with disseminated and concentrated sulphides.

Elevated Ag, Pb, and Cu occur in rocks 300 m away along strike.
