Wallbridge intersects 87.63 g/t gold over 2.16

metres in the Fresno zone and 54.79 g/t gold

over 2.36 metres in the Naga Viper zone

TORONTO

Nov. 5, 2018

/CNW/ -

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

("Wallbridge"

or the "Company"

)

is pleased to announce continued positive results from its

underground drill program and to provide an update on the ongoing development as part of the

35,000-tonne bulk sample and underground exploration program at its 100%-owned Fenelon Gold

Property ("Fenelon").

Highlights

Visible gold was observed to be present in 48 of 80 holes drilled to date.

Since the last press release (see

Wallbridge Press Release dated

October 23, 2018

), highlights

of received assay results are as follows:

18-1000-004:

54.79 g/t gold over 2.36 metres

in the Naga Viper zone

18-1000-005:

19.92 g/t gold over 3.25 metres

in the Naga Viper zone

18-1000-006:

24.28 g/t gold over 4.35 metres

in the Naga Viper zone and

16.40 g/t gold over 6.80 metres

in the Habanero zone

18-1000-007:

14.67 g/t gold over 3.80 metres

in the Paprika zone

18-1000-009:

87.63 g/t gold over 2.16 metres

in the Fresno zone and

13.97 g/t gold over 0.71 metres

in the Chipotle zone

18-0990-018:

4.46 g/t gold over 9.95 metres

in the Paprika zone and

12.08 g/t gold over 2.50 metres

in the Habanero zone

18-1010-003:

16.99 g/t gold over 1.60 metres

in the Habanero zone

Two of the above highlights are from intersections where visible gold was not observed.

Surface drill program with one drill rig now fully underway and a second surface drill rig is

mobilizing this week. Current surface drilling is focusing on building resources in the top part of

the Tabasco zone and targeting all zones to depths of 300-400 metres

Assay results from 25 underground drill holes and three surface drill holes are pending.

Production from the third stope (CH-02) is underway and the fourth stope (NV-02) is ready for

production.

Over 16,000 tonnes of ore has been mined of which 13,500 tonnes have been shipped to the

Camflo mill. Processing of the second batch is planned for the end of November.

"We have now reached the 5165 Level where at least one stope is planned to be extracted. Our

priority is now to reach the 5150 and 5135 levels where the Habanero and Naga Viper West areas

can be tested." stated

Frank Demers

, Vice-President, Mining & Projects of Wallbridge. "Our grade

expectation of the bulk sample remains to be the range of 18 to 25 grams per tonne of gold and we

are looking forward to reaching those lower levels not only to test some of the richer zones but also

to develop platforms for deeper drilling from those areas."

"These results from the West extension area released today, not only continue to add to the

mineralization in the Naga Viper, Habanero and Paprika zones, but also provide unexpected high-

grade intersections in Fresno and Chipotle zones along the way adding proximal ounces in the

vicinity of the existing infrastructure," stated Attila Péntek, Vice-President, Exploration of Wallbridge.

"Our drilling in the East extension area, between sections 1120 and 1140 has also encountered

strong shear zones with visible gold observed in two intersections. Surface drilling is focusing on

building resources in zones that are further away from the mine workings and exploring for

mineralized zones down to 300-

400 m

depth."

The bulk sample is expected to produce 19,000 to 26,000 ounces of gold with close to 50% of gold

priced at

C$1,720

per ounce. The expected cash flow upon completion of this bulk sample, net of all

bulk sample costs and including the financing costs, is expected to be sufficient to cover the

budgeted working capital requirements.

The bulk sample program is designed to test a few stopes in several zones. The geology team has

developed an extensive sampling program to characterize the mineralized material during this bulk

sample. Chip samples are collected from a sampling line across each development face and muck

samples are also taken in a regular pattern on surface.

In the next few weeks, underground drilling will target the main high-grade shoots down-plunge to

200 m

depth. Surface drilling will follow known mineralized zones and expand resources to 300-

400

depth and further away from the mine workings.

A summary of the drill hole results from the underground drilling are reported in Tables 1 and 2 and

also shown on the

Wallbridge's Fenelon Gold Property 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 Martiniere. The Fenelon Gold Property hosts the Discovery Zone gold deposit and

surrounding 4 km strike length of a gold-hosting secondary splay of the SLDZ.

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

and a positive pre-feasibility study on the existing resource (see

Wallbridge Press Release dated

February 02, 2017

). In addition, Wallbridge has completed surface

exploration drilling campaigns and is currently drilling from underground as part of its 35,000-tonne

bulk sample at Fenelon. Drilling to date has significantly extended existing zones and discovered

several new parallel zones.

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.

statements, including, without limitation, the costs associated with the development and

operation of its properties. Such assumptions and estimates are made in light of the trends

and conditions that are considered to be relevant and reasonable based on information

available and the circumstances existing at this time. A number of risk factors may cause

actual results, level of activity, performance or outcomes of such exploration and/or mine

development to be materially different from those expressed or implied by such forward-

looking statements including, without limitation, whether such discoveries will result in

commercially viable quantities of such mineralized materials, the possibility of changes to

project parameters as plans continue to be refined, the ability to execute planned

exploration and future drilling programs, the need for additional funding to continue

exploration and development efforts, changes in general economic, market and business

conditions, and those other risks set forth in Wallbridge's most recent annual information

form under the heading "Risk Factors" and in its other public filings. Forward-looking

statements are not guarantees of future performance and such information is inherently

subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that are difficult to

predict and may be beyond the control of Wallbridge. Although Wallbridge has attempted to

identify important risks and factors that could cause actual actions, events or results to

differ materially from those described in forward-looking statements, there may be other

factors and risks that cause actions, events or results not to be as anticipated, estimated or

intended. Consequently, undue reliance should not be placed on such forward-looking

statements. In addition, all forward-looking statements in this press release are given as of

the date hereof.

Wallbridge disclaims any intention or obligation to update or revise any forward-looking

statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, save and

except as may be required by applicable securities laws. The forward-looking statements

contained herein are expressly qualified by this disclaimer.
