White Metal Expands the Ellen Zone with Step-Out Drilling Returning 3.68 g/t Au
over 10.5 m, Including 19.9 g/t over 1.5 m, Tower Stock Gold Project, Ontario
Thunder Bay, Ontario, August 24, 2021: White Metal Resources Corp. (TSXV: WHM) (FRA: CGK1)
(OTCMKTS: TNMLF) (“White Metal” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce that it has r eceived the
assay results f rom the first three diamond drill hole s from the Phase 2 drill ing program on its Flagship
Tower Stock Gold Project (the “Project” or “Property”) . The three holes were designed to test both the
strike and down -dip extension of gold mineralization at the Ellen Zone , a new discovery made in the
Phase 1 diamond drilling program that intersected 1.7 g/t Au over 82.5 m (from 10 m), including 3.0 g/t Au
over 45 m (from 10 m) in drill hole TM-21-94 (see White Metal news release dated April 20, 2021).
A summary of results from the higher -grade gold intersections for the first three holes from Phase 2 is
provided in Table 1. Hole TM-21-100, drilled 25 m northwest of TM -21-94, confirmed the northwest strike-
extension of the Ellen Zone, returning anomalous to high-grade gold between 23 m and 113 m that range
from 77 ppb to 19,900 ppb Au (60 samples). The weighted average of this 90 m interval is 1.23 g/t Au,
including 3.68 g/t Au over 10.5 m (from 23 m).
Michael Stares, President and CEO of White Metal, commented , “Again, we have shown that the Tower
Stock Gold Property has great potential to host a significant gold deposit. We are pleased to announce
that because of these new positive assay results, we will extend the current drilling pr ogram to further test
the Ellen Zone along strike to the northwest. We also look forward to reporting the results of all drill hole
assays as they become available. The Tower Stock Gold Property is unique because of its location, great
infrastructure and excellent geology that delivered exceptional gold grades over wide intervals.”
Table 1. Summary of assay results from three initial Phase 2 drill holes.
Drill Hole From (m) To (m) Interval (m) Au (g/t) Au (ppb)
TM-21-98 72.5 80.0 7.5 1.34 1,335
and 86.0 95.0 9.0 2.01 2,007
and 102.5 107.0 4.5 1.80 1,796
and 159.5 165.5 6.0 1.02 1,023
TM-21-99 anomalous gold from 4 to 197 metres
TM-21-100 23.0 33.5 10.5 3.68 3,683
and 48.5 65.0 16.5 1.35 1,345
and 92.0 113.0 21.0 1.90 1,898
Note: drill hole intervals are not representative of true width.
All three drill holes were oriented at azimuth 045 and -50 degrees dip.
Hole TM-21-98, drilled 20 m southwest of and on section with TM -21-94, confirmed the down -dip
extension of the Ellen Zone, returning anomalous to high -grade gold between 72.5 m and 107 m that
range from 61 ppb to 5,800 ppb Au (23 samples). The weighted average of this 34 .5 m interval is 1.11 g/t
Au, including 2.01 g/t Au over 9 m (from 86 m).
Hole TM-21-99, drilled 25 m to the southeast of TM -21-94, was designed to test the southeast strike -
extension of the Ellen Zone but returned minor gold mineralization ranging from 6 ppb to 1,300 ppb Au in
129 samples.

Ellen Zone gold mineralization is hosted within sub-greenschist, chlorite-altered metavolcanic rocks and is
associated with secondary semi -pervasive and intense sericite + pyrite (phyllic) alteration with locally -
developed hydrothermal brecciation. Due to the excellent results from the Ellen Zone, the drilling program
will now be extended to further test the down-dip and strike potential of the Ellen Zone.
The Tower Stock Property is located approximately 40 km west -northwest of the port city of Thunder Bay,
Ontario and covers approximately 1,968 hectares. A more detailed description of the Project and the
latest diamond drilling and exploration programs c an be viewed on the Company’s website

The Company has completed a total of 2 ,285.5 metres of the 3,000-metre Phase 2 drilling program on
four different zones. To date, 11 drill holes have been completed and samples from the first 10 holes
have been submitted to Activation Laboratories in Thunder Bay, Ontario.
Sample Analysis
Half core samples and Company QA/QC standards and blanks were submitted for analysis by Activation
Laboratories Ltd. (Actlabs) in Thunder Bay, Ontario. Samples were transported under the direct
