KESSELRUN INTERCEPTS 99.0 G/T AU OVER 0.5 M WITHIN 3.5 M ZONE AVERAGING 15.6 G/T AU

Kesselrun Resources Ltd. has provided the following update on its Huronian gold project.

The Company continues to receive further results from the 2021 drill program. The initial set of holes drilled on the Fisher Zone has been successful in extending the high-grade shoot to over 100 metres vertical depth as well as extending the overall strike length of the zone by over 150 metres.

HighlightsFisher Zone high-grade shoot extended to over 100 metres vertical depth21HUR037 intercepted 99.0 g/t Au over 0.5 m within a 3.5 m wide zone which assayed 15.6 g/t Au; 21HUR044 intercepted 1.1 g/t Au over 16.1 m Figure 1: Schematic Longsection – Fisher ZoneTo view an enhanced version of Figure 1, please visit:https://orders.newsfilecorp.com/files/4206/80370_7bf7d960c4dd9b3d_001full.jpg

Michael Thompson, P.Geo., President and CEO of the Company, commented, “The results from the main high-grade shoot at Fisher continue to impress. Now that we have traced the zone down to just over 100 metres vertical depth we are well prepared to begin aggressively extending it to greater depths in upcoming drilling.”

The 2021 Huronian drill program is budgeted at 20,000 metres targeting the Fisher, Fisher North, McKellar and Huronian zones, all in close proximity along an approximate 1500 m strike length in the area of the historic Huronian Mine. The area also has tremendous potential for discovery of new zones in light of the new revised mineralization model.

(1) Widths are drill indicated core length as insufficient drilling has been undertaken to determine true widths at this time. Average grades are calculated with un-capped gold assays as insufficient drilling has been completed to determine capping levels for higher grade gold intercepts.

About the Huronian Gold Project

The 100% owned Huronian Gold Project hosts the past producing Huronian Mine, Northwestern Ontario’s first gold mine with an historic resource estimate of 44,592 oz Au at an average grade of 15.3 g/t Au in the indicated category and 501,377 oz Au at an average grade of 14.4 g/t Au in the inferred category. The resource estimate presented for the Huronian Project is historic in nature. Kesselrun Resources’ qualified person has not completed sufficient work to confirm the results of the historical resource. Kesselrun Resources is not treating this as a current mineral resource but is considering it relevant as a guide to future exploration and is included for reference purposes only. The historic resource was estimated by Minescape Exploration Inc. in 1998. Further drilling will be required by Kesselrun Resources to verify the historic estimate as current mineral resources.

As well, the Huronian Gold Project hosts the same lithological package of rocks, as interpreted from both Government of Ontario and Kesselrun Resources mapping, compilation and modelling, on strike from Wesdome Gold’s adjacent Moss Lake Gold Deposit with a resource estimate of 1,377,300 oz Au at an average grade of 1.1 g/t Au in the indicated category and 1,751,600 oz Au at an average grade of 1.1 g/t Au in the inferred category as outlined in their 2013 PEA2. Mineralization hosted on adjacent and/or nearby properties is not necessarily indicitave of mineralization hosted on Kesselrun Resources’ property.

On January 26, 2021 Wesdome announced that the Moss Lake Project would be purchased by Goldshore Resources Inc. (see Wesdome and Goldshore news releases dated January 26, 2021).

Qualified Person

Michael Thompson, P.Geo., President and CEO of Kesselrun, is the Qualified Person responsible for the project as defined by National Instrument 43-101 and has approved the technical information in this news release.

QAQC

Kesselrun has implemented a quality control program to comply with industry best practices for sampling, chain of custody and analyses. Certified gold reference standards, blanks and duplicates are inserted at the core processing site as part of the QA/QC program in addition to the control samples inserted by the lab. Samples are prepared and analyzed by Activation Laboratories in Thunder Bay. Samples are analyzed for gold using Fire Assay-AA techniques. Samples returning over 10 g/t gold are analyzed using Fire Assay-Gravimetric methods. Selected samples are also analyzed with a standard 1 kg metallic screen fire assay. All results reported herein have passed QA/QC protocols.

Health and Safety

The health and safety of our personnel and contractors is always top priority to Kesselrun. The current situation presents new challenges above and beyond what we normally face while working in the field. Kesselrun has implemented further measures to ensure the health and safety of all working on the Company’s projects.

Marketing and Investor Relations

Kesselrun is pleased to announce it has engaged Larry Heuchert to provide investor relations services to the Company on a month-to-month basis for US$2,500 per month.

The Company has also agreed to engage Aktiencheck.de AG, owned by Stefan Lindam (collectively, “Aktiencheck”), for €50,000 for a European marketing and news dissemination program. The length of such program depends upon the volume of the Company’s future news flow.
