Signature Resources Announces Significant Gold Assay Results

TORONTO, Oct. 21, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Signature Resources Ltd. (TSXV: SGU, OTCQB: SGGTF, FSE 3S3) ("Signature" or the "Company") is pleased to announce gold assay results from its Exploration Program conducted in September, 2020.

During this short, successful, helicopter supported program 92 grab samples were collected and assayed, from 5 separate target areas, by a team of two professional geologists, one geo-technician and one prospector. From the 92 samples, 14 assayed above 0.1 g/t Au, with values ranging from 2.117 to 0.112 g/t Au. The top 14 of these assays are shown in the table below.

Regarding Quality Assurance and Quality Control; standards and blanks were inserted at 10 sample intervals or so for analyses in the assay sample stream. In addition, the lab also inserted their standards. The field samples were delivered by the project geologist to Purolator in Winnipeg, Manitoba for delivery to SGS laboratories in Red Lake, Ontario. The samples were analyzed by SGS’s method GE_AA30V5 which involves fire assaying a crushed pulverized 30-gram sample followed by an AAS (atomic absorption spectroscopy) finish.

“We are impressed with the results obtained from this program. The presence of gold in significant concentrations in several areas within three different Target Areas is extremely encouraging. In most cases the mineralization was associated with numerous silicified shear zones which may suggest a regional correlation in time and structure with the Lingman Lake gold mine mineralization event(s) and the potential for new discoveries in the Lingman Lake greenstone belt. As the areas sampled were small in size, due to the constraints of hand stripping, we are excited what will be found upon further investigation of these areas.” commented Bob Komarechka, P.Geo, Project Geologist.

The results from this current prospecting work will help determine the continuity of the shear system and possible associated mineralization. Further prospecting, mapping, and sampling is planned for next summer.

About Signature
The Lingman Lake gold property consists of 622 staked claims, four free hold full patented claims and 14 mineral rights patented claims totaling approximately 12,148 hectares. The property hosts an historical estimate of 234,684 oz of gold* (1,063,904 tonnes grading 6.86 g/t with 2.73 gpt cut-off) and includes what has historically been referred to as the Lingman Lake Gold Mine, an underground substructure consisting of a 126.5-meter shaft, and 3-levels at 46-meters, 84-meters and 122-meters depths.

*This historical resource estimate is based on prior data and reports obtained and prepared by previous operators, and information provided by governmental authorities. A Qualified Person has not done sufficient work to verify the classification of the mineral resource estimates in accordance with current CIM categories. The Company is not treating the historical estimate as a current NI 43-101 mineral resource estimate. Establishing a current mineral resource estimate on the Lingman Lake deposit will require further evaluation, which the Company and its consultants intend to complete in due course. Additional information regarding historical resource estimates is available in the technical report entitled, "Technical Report on the Lingman Lake Gold Property" dated January 31, 2020, prepared by John M. Siriunas, P.Eng. and Walter Hanych, P.Geo., available on the Company's SEDAR profile at www.sedar.com
