Edmonton, Alberta--(Newsfile Corp. - November 1, 2018) - Grizzly Discoveries Inc. (TSXV: GZD) (OTCQB: GZDIF) (FSE: G6H) ("Grizzly" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has received results from its reconnaissance mapping and sampling program at the Robocop Cobalt-Copper-Silver (Co-Cu-Ag) project near Roosville in Southeast British Columbia. The field crew, provided by APEX Geoscience Ltd., conducted a two week surface exploration program in advance of a planned follow-up airborne geophysical survey.
The Robocop claims comprise 9,891 acres and are located in Southeast B.C., approximately 45 kilometres (km) south of Fernie and 70 km southeast of Cranbrook, immediately north of the Canada-USA border. The property is located east of Grizzly's Greenwood Property in Southeast B.C.
The Company also announces that on October 31, 2018 Board of Directors authorized the issuance of an aggregate 800,000 options to two directors and a consultant of Grizzly at an exercise price of $0.10 per option under the Company's stock option plan.
HIGHLIGHTS FOR THE 2018 ROBOCOP PROPERTY WORK PROGRAM
GEOLOGY AND PRIOR EXPLORATION HIGHLIGHTS FOR THE ROBOCOP PROPERTY
Prior work has identified areas within the Robocop property with significant historic Co-Cu-Ag in-soil anomalies. Combined with historic drilling during the 1990's (Teck Explorations Ltd.) and early 2000's (Ruby Red Resources) that yielded significantly anomalous near-surface Co-Cu-Ag mineralization, the project warrants follow up exploration including additional drilling. The Co-Cu-Ag mineralization is hosted in Sheppard Formation and is classified as mid-Proterozoic sediment hosted mineralization. Based upon recent work by the USGS (Bookstrom et al., 2016), Robocop Co-Cu-Ag mineralization is similar in style and age of host rocks to mineralization in the Blackbird Co-Cu-Au-Ag district in Idaho including eCobalt Solutions Inc.'s (TSX:ECS) Idaho Cobalt Project, which hosts mineral resources of 3.87 million tons (Measured & Indicated) at 0.59% Co and 0.85% Cu along with 1.82 million tons (Inferred) at 0.46% Co and 0.81% Cu (see eCobalt Solutions Inc.'s press release dated February 7th, 2018).
Brian Testo (CEO) commented "We believe that significant potential exists to expand the known extent of the Co-Cu-Ag mineralization on the Property and further exploration is warranted." In order to advance the project, Grizzly is planning to conduct a helicopter airborne magnetic and conductivity survey, a first for the Robocop Property, to assist in identifying future drill targets.
Grizzly has commenced land use permitting for drilling at the Robocop Property and it is anticipated to be ready for a 2019 drilling campaign.

On October 31, 2018, Grizzly's Board of Directors authorized the issuance of an aggregate of 800,000 stock options, including 500,000 to directors of the Company and 300,000 to a consultant of the Company, with an exercise price of $0.10 per option expiring no later than October 31, 2023.
