metres at 600 metres depth in Deep Extension

of the Main Gabbro at Fenelon

TORONTO

July 9, 2019

/CNW/ -

Wallbridge Mining Company Limited (TSX:WM, FWB: WC7)

("Wallbridge" or the "Company")

is pleased to announce that its exploration drilling program has

intersected high-grade gold mineralization within the Main Gabbro at approximately 600 metre

vertical depth at its 100%-owned Fenelon Gold Property ("Fenelon" or the "Property").

Furthermore, exploration drilling to the southwest continues to encounter strong mineralization within

the Tabasco and Area 51 corridors over a 900 metre proven strike length. The results released here

significantly advance the 2019 exploration goal of expanding the known footprint and demonstrating

the large size potential of the Fenelon Gold System (see

Wallbridge Press Release dated

June 24, 2019

Highlights:

Since the last press release (see

Wallbridge Press Release dated

June 24, 2019

), assay

results of six exploration drill holes were received with highlights as follows:

Main Gabbro zone

FA-19-059:

17.58 g/t gold over 11.04 metres,

including

60.56 g/t gold over 1.78 metres

within the Main Gabbro (see Figures

and

"The intersection in FA-19-059 reported today is the deepest high-grade gold hit so far on the

Property and extends the known mineralization in the Main Gabbro to almost 600 metre vertical

depth", stated Attila Péntek, Vice President Exploration of Wallbridge. "Based on the currently

available limited information, this intersection is modelled to correspond to the thickening of the

Cayenne zone as it transitions from the sediments into the Main Gabbro. We are also very pleased

by the consistent high quality of intersections in the deeper parts of the Tabasco zone, like those in

FA-19-056, FA-19-059, FA-19-063 announced below and FA-19-054 released previously."

Tabasco zone

FA-19-056:

2.71 g/t gold over 11.59 metres,

including

9.21 g/t gold over 1.38 metres

in the Tabasco zone (see Figures

and

);

FA-19-063:

5.75 g/t gold over 10.94 metres,

including

21.94 g/t gold over 2.49 metres

in the Tabasco zone (see Figures

and

);

Area 51 corridor

FA-19-053:

10.47 g/t gold over 2.99 metres,

including

27.04 g/t gold over 0.78 metres

in Area 51 (see Figures

and

);

FA-19-059:

3.24 g/t gold over 7.18 metres,

including

41.82 g/t gold over 0.30 metres

in Area 51 (see Figures

and

);

19-0925-007:

6.00 g/t gold over 1.93 metres

and

9.57 g/t gold over 0.64 metres

within

0.86 g/t gold over 29.45 metres

in Area 51, and

2.70 g/t gold over 3.05

metres

within

0.90 g/t gold over 18.37 metres

also in Area 51 (see Figures

and

The intersections in FA-19-059 announced above are in addition to the

3.28 g/t gold over 17.60

metres

in Area 51 and

7.32 g/t gold over 7.63 metres

in the Tabasco zone previously

reported from the same hole in the

Wallbridge Press Release dated

June 24, 2019

FA-19-067

intersected a visible gold-bearing zone near 550 metre vertical depth; this is in

addition to the widespread gold mineralization with occurrences of visible gold released in the

last press release (see

Wallbridge Press Release dated

June 24, 2019

) (see Figures

and

). Assay results are pending.

FA-19-070

intersected widespread gold mineralization within and adjacent the Jeremie Pluton

with one occurrence of visible gold observed (see Figures

and

). Drilling of this hole is still

underway and assay results are pending.

19-1000-007

intersected two visible gold-bearing zones in Area 51 (see Figures

and

Assay results are pending.

"We are quite pleased with the growth of the gold mineralization not only in the Main Gabbro but

also in the Tabasco zone and in the Area 51 corridor", stated

Marz Kord

, President & CEO of

Wallbridge Mining. "We now see several large intersections of potentially economic mineralization

over hundreds of metres of strike length within the

Tabasco-Area

51 corridor as evident from results

in holes 19-053, 19-056, 19-059, and 19-063 and 19-0925-007. The intersection in FA-19-053 is

over 200 metres from the nearest drill hole and the farthest northwest high-grade hit along the

Jeremie pluton which opens up significant space for future exploration and resource growth. These

intersections may lend themselves to underground bulk mining and/or narrow vein high-grade mining

methods. More importantly, we see these large intersections persist from the north in the Tabasco

zones, throughout Area 51, and, now, well into the Jeremie Pluton as seen from the mineralization in

holes 19-065 and 19-067 with results still pending."

Assay results are reported below for five surface drill holes (FA-19-053, FA-19-056, FA-19-058, FA-

19-059 and FA-19-063) and one underground drill hole (19-0925-007) from the 2019 exploration drill

program. To date, a total of over 17,000 metres have been drilled as part of the 2019 exploration

drill program and assay results are pending for 16 surface drill holes and five underground holes,

including eighteen intervals with visible gold. Three rigs (two surface, one underground) are currently

active on exploration drilling, doing large-spaced step-outs to define the footprint of the Fenelon Gold

System. Further, approximately 8,900 metres have been drilled as part of the 2019 resource drill

program, currently underway with one underground drill rig), and these results will be announced in

separate press releases from the exploration results.

A summary of the new drill hole results from the ongoing 2019 exploration drill program are reported

in Tables 1 and 2 and also shown on the

Fenelon is located in northwestern

Quebec

proximal to the Sunday Lake Deformation Zone ("SLDZ")

which hosts the Detour Gold Mine in

Ontario

, and Balmoral Resources' gold deposits at Martinière.

Secondary splays of the SLDZ transect the Property over two to four-kilometre strike lengths and

have controlled the emplacement of a significant gold system along the Jeremie Pluton and within a

mafic-ultramafic sill referred to as the Main Gabbro.

Since acquiring the property in late 2016, Wallbridge has completed an updated resource estimate

and a positive pre-feasibility study on the resource that existed in the Main Gabbro prior to any

drilling by the Company. Wallbridge has undertaken successful surface exploration drilling campaigns

in 2017, 2018 and 2019, and has recently completed an underground 35,000-tonne bulk sample at

Fenelon. Drilling to date has significantly extended existing zones, located additional parallel zones,

and discovered a new gold system associated to the Jeremie Pluton referred to as Area 51.

Drill core samples from the ongoing drill program at Fenelon were cut and bagged on site and

transported to SGS Canada Inc. Samples, along with standards, blanks, and duplicates included for

quality assurance and quality control, were prepared and analyzed at SGS Canada Inc. laboratories.

Samples are crushed to 90% less than 2mm. A 1kg riffle split is pulverized to >95% passing 106

microns. 50g samples are analyzed by fire assay and AAS. Samples >10g/t Au are automatically

analyzed by fire assay with gravimetric finish or screen metallic analysis. To test for coarse free gold

and for additional quality assurance and quality control, Wallbridge requests screen metallic analysis

for samples containing visible gold. These and future assay results may vary from time to time due

to re-analysis for quality assurance and quality control.
