MIRAMICHI, New Brunswick, Oct. 20, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — SLAM Exploration Ltd. (“SLAM” or the “Companyon TSXV: SXL) is pleased to announce additional occurrences of visible gold discovered by trenching on its wholly owned Menneval Gold project in northwestern New Brunswick. Trench M20-18 followed a new vein that was identified by a grab sample that graded 59.30 g/t as reported by news release October 7, 2020. This new vein is referenced as No. 18.
Visible gold was reported from 12 of 16 grab samples collected from vein No 18 over a strike length of 115m. This mineralized vein ranges from 0.04 to 0.12 m thick. It is part of a network of veins extending southwest of Zone 9 as reported October 7, 2020. Trench 19 was a crosscut trench designed to find the extension No. 18 where it was displaced by a fault. Trenches M20-20 and M20-21 were dug in close proximity to the original Zone 9 vein looking for potential extensions.Assays are pending on 16 grab samples collected from vein No. 18 and 5 samples from trenches M20-19 to 21. All 21 samples are comprised of quartz vein material mineralized with limonite, pyrite and, in 12 of the samples, visible gold.

This vein is mineralized with limonite and locally, pyrite. Following this trenching program, the Company expects a potential resumption of diamond drilling activities to test these new gold occurrences.
