American Creek Reports Composites on Treaty Creek Drill Holes Including GS19-48 (838.5m @ 0.728 g/t Gold) and GS19-49 (1081.5m @ 0.589 g/t Gold Including an Upper Interval of 301.5m @ 0.828 g/t Gold) Located in British Columbia's Golden Triangle

Cardston, Alberta--(Newsfile Corp. - September 30, 2019) - American Creek Resources Ltd. (TSXV: AMK) ("American Creek") ("the Corporation") is pleased to announce composite results from JV partner Tudor Gold's ongoing drill program being conducted at the Treaty Creek Project located in the Golden Triangle of NW British Columbia. As announced on September 23, 2019 we now have results from two deep vertical diamond drill holes (drilled to a depth of over 1,000m) and four definition drill holes. All six holes intercepted significant gold mineralization over wide intervals at the Goldstorm Zone.

Goldstorm Extension

Hole GS19-47 was drilled as a 150m step-out from hole GS19-42 (reported July 30, 2019 averaging 0.683 g/t Au over 780m) and was drilled vertically to a total depth of 1,199m, ending in mineralization. The hole contains strong stockwork with gold-bearing mineralization accompanied by significant base-metal disseminated sulphide mineralization averaging 0.589 g/t Au over 1081.5m including an upper interval of 0.828 g/t Au over 301.5m and a lower interval of 0.930 g/t Au over 207 m. The hole was stopped in mineralization due to the drill rig reaching its depth limitation, however, casing was left in the hole for possible continuation next year.

This 150 meter step-out hole confirms that the Goldstorm system is gaining strength to the northeast. With this strongly mineralized intercept, the Goldstorm Zone has been extended by a total of 300m this year from the best hole drilled in 2018 (CB18-39, averaging 0.981 g/t Au over 563.8m) and has now been traced along strike for over 800 meters.

Goldstorm Definition Drilling

A second deep vertical hole, GS19-48, was drilled to a total depth of 1035m from the same pad as CB18-39 (drilled in 2018). The results exhibit excellent continuity of mineralization between holes and this drill hole returned 0.725 g/t Au over 838.5m, including a near surface interval of 328.5m averaging 1.048 g/t gold Au.

Four footwall definition holes (GS19-43 to GS19-46) drilled on section 109+00 NE, were successful in extending the width of the mineralized zone, to the southeast into the footwall of the controlling fault structure.

• Hole GS19-43 returned an average of 0.566 g/t Au over 493.5m;
• Hole GS19-44 returned an average of 0.807 g/t Au over 267m including 1.065 g/t Au over 150m;
• Hole GS19-45 returned an average of 0.719 g/t Au over 325.5m including 1.000 g/t Au over 173m.
• Hole GS19-46 returned an average of 0.510g/t Au over 594m including 0.734 g/t Au over 162m.

Tudor Gold Exploration Manager, Ken Konkin explains: "Given the success of the two deep drill holes GS19-47 and GS19-48, the Goldstorm System shows no signs of weakening to the northeast and several more drill holes will be needed to find the length and depth of this huge gold system. Hole GS19-47 showed a very strong quartz stockwork system and was still in gold values at the end of the 1,199 meter drill hole. The bottom of GS19-47 averages 0.930 g/t Au over 207 meters. This is the first time we've seen this strength of gold mineralization at depth. Furthermore, a strong copper association was encountered with gold values at depth in both GS19-47 and GS19-48.

A 151.5m zone of 0.22% copper with 0.572 g/t gold was intercepted from 665.0 to 816.5 meters in GS19-47 and a 66.0m zone of 0.35% copper with 0.958 g/t gold was intercepted from 874.5 to 940.5m in GS19-48.

Not only does the Goldstorm Zone remain open at depth and along strike, we are now seeing base-metal associations possibly as part of a zonation within the metal system."

The following table provides gold composites from all nine 2019 drill holes completed on five sections that cut the Goldstorm Zone

Goldstorm Zone Drill Section 109+00 NE, 111+00 NE and 114+00 NE

Section 114+00 NE is a 300 m step-out on strike from 111+00 NE and hole GS19-47 hosts what is now the longest and deepest gold intercept on the project to date.

Section 111+00 NE shows the consistency of the upper horizon gold grades between holes and new depth extension in hole GS19-48.

Section 109+00 NE shows four definition holes drilled this season to better outline the extent of the zone to the southeast.

Goldstorm Zone Plan Map

The Goldstorm Zone now extends more than 800 meters in strike length and remains open along strike to the Northeast and Southwest as well as to depth.

Goldstorm zone drill sections and the plan map are included at the bottom of the news release.

The diamond drilling program continues with two drill rigs. Additional results will be announced as they become available.

Walter Storm, Tudor Gold President and CEO, stated: "I am very pleased to see that all nine holes drilled have reported very good results and we have not missed on any step-out targets nor any footwall extension holes, they were all hits. These results have proven that we have an excellent understanding of the structure, geology and mineralogy of this massive gold system. I am looking forward to continuing our exploration efforts in order to unlock the full potential of this large gold system."

Darren Blaney, American Creek CEO, stated: "The Goldstorm deposit continues to produced world-class intercepts that are both deep and yet very strong close to surface. Hole GS-19-48 carries 0.725 g/t Au over 838.5m including a near surface interval of 1.048 g/t over 328.5m. It's just one of many holes that extend to depth ending in mineralization.

In referring to the step out hole GS-19-47 (0.589 g/t Au over 1081.5m including an upper interval of 0.828 g/t Au over 301.5m and a lower interval of 0.930 g/t Au over 207 m), Eric Sprott stated "That's a huge, huge, huge intersection! I've always thought this thing has an easy shot of coming up with 20 million ounces of low-grade gold and there's nothing in these results that will deter me from thinking that, and they're well positioned in terms of logistics". What we're really excited about is the richer intersections for hundreds of meters close to surface throughout the entire Goldstorm system. While this system is proving to be very deep, the reality is it's also becoming a rich gold system close to surface that lends itself towards the possibility of being open pit mined".

About American Creek

American Creek is a Canadian junior mineral exploration company with a strong portfolio of gold and silver properties in British Columbia.

Three of those properties are located in the prolific "Golden Triangle"; the Treaty Creek and Electrum joint venture projects with Tudor Gold/Walter Storm as well as the 100% owned past producing Dunwell Mine.

A major drill program is presently being conducted at Treaty Creek by JV partner and operator Tudor Gold. There are two drills working on the Goldstorm zone at present.

The Treaty Creek Project is a Joint Venture with Tudor Gold owning 60% and acting as operator. American Creek and Teuton Resources each have 20% interests in the project. American Creek and Teuton are both fully carried until such time as a Production Notice is issued, at which time they are required to contribute their respective 20% share of development costs. Until such time, Tudor is required to fund all exploration and development costs while both American Creek and Teuton have "free rides".
