Northern Superior Initiates Drill Targeting Exercise, Lac Surprise Property, West-Central Qu?(C)bec

SUDBURY, ON / ACCESSWIRE / August 14, 2019 / Northern Superior Resources (TSXV:SUP)(OTCQB:NSUPF) ("Northern Superior" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has initiated a core drill targeting exercise for its 100% owned Lac Surprise property in west-central Qu?(C)bec.

Dr. T.F. Morris President and CEO states: "Northern Superior has received the geophysical data from the recently flown drone supported airborne magnetic survey at its Lac Surprise gold property (see Northern Superior press release, July 16, 2019). The geophysical data is being integrated into the Company's geoscientific data base for the property. Once this process is completed, drill targets will be identified and prioritized with the intention of initiating a core drill program in early September."

About the Lac Surprise Property

The Lac Surprise property is tied onto the southwest side of IAMGOLD's Nelligan gold property (see IAMGOLD press release, May 30, 2019). Vanstar Mining Resources Inc. ("Vanstar"), IAMGOLD's partner on the project, describes the gold deposit on the Nelligan property as part of a "vast auriferous system offering a potential of multi-million gold ounces" (Vanstar PowerPoint presentation, May 2019).

Northern Superior believes, based on the following, that this gold system likely extends west onto the Lac Surprise property (see Northern Superior press release, July 16, 2019):

1. Lithologies associated with the Nelligan gold deposit extending west onto the Lac Surprise property;
2. Gold grain and gold geochemical-in-till dispersal trains defined, emanating from this lithological package on the Lac Surprise property (see Northern Superior Resources press release, January 27, 2014);
3. Gold showings discovered within this same lithological package, with grab samples collected from the Black Phoenix gold showing assaying as high as 19.9 g/t gold (see Northern Superior Resources press release, February 6, 2019);
4. Four west to east anomalous geophysical trends identified within this lithological package, defined from an induced polarization and magnetic survey completed in 2016 (see Northern Superior press release, March 9, 2017); and
5. Establishing that at least one of these anomalous geophysical trends is gold bearing, confirming that a hydrothermal gold bearing system(s) occurs within this part of the property: defined by a five core drill hole (1185 metre) program completed in 2016 (see Northern Superior press release, March 9, 2017).
