SCOTTIE RESOURCES COMMENCES 2023 DRILLING ON BLUEBERRY CONTACT ZONE

Rhea-AI Summary

Scottie Resources Corp. has started its 2023 drill program on the Blueberry Contact Zone target, located near the Scottie Gold Mine in British Columbia. The 20,000 meter program aims to expand the structure and release results in the coming months.

VANCOUVER, BC, June 30, 2023 /PRNewswire/ - Scottie Resources Corp. ("Scottie" or the "Company") (TSXV: SCOT) (OTCQB: SCTSF) (FSE: SR8) is pleased to report that it has commenced its 2023 drill program on its high-grade Blueberry Contact Zone target. The Blueberry Contact Zone is located 2 kilometres north-northeast of the 100% owned and royalty free, past-producing high-grade Scottie Gold Mine, 35 kilometres north of the town of Stewart, BC, along the Granduc Road.

President and CEO, Brad Rourke commented: "We are up and running, with three drills now turning on the Blueberry Contact Zone. Our 20,000 metre 2023 drill program is primarily focused on expansion of the structure, both at depth and along strike, following up on the exceptional results of last year's program. With a strong early start to the season, we expect to begin releasing results over the coming months and are excited to further define this high-grade, road accessible gold system."

About the Blueberry Contact Zone

The Blueberry Zone is located just 2 kilometres northeast of the 100% owned, past-producing Scottie Gold Mine located in British Columbia, Canada's Golden Triangle region. Historic trenching and channel sampling of the Blueberry Vein include results of 103.94 g/t gold over 1.43 metres, and 203.75 g/t gold over 1.90 metres. Despite high-grade surficial samples and easy road access, the Blueberry Vein had only limited reported drilling prior to the Company's exploration work. The target was significantly advanced during Scottie's 2019 drill program when an interval grading 7.44 g/t gold over 34.78 metres was intersected in a new splay off zone of the main Blueberry Vein. The drill results received from 2020 - 2023, coupled with surficial mapping and sampling suggest that this splay is in fact a major N-S mineralized structure, of which the Blueberry Vein was only a secondary structure. The zone has a drilled strike length of 1,550 metres, is steeply dipping, and has been tested to 400 metres depth. The Blueberry Zone is located on the Granduc Road, 20 kilometres north of the Ascot Resources' Premier Project, which is fully financed for construction. Newcrest's Brucejack Mine is located 25 kilometres to the north.
