ABOUT THE BIRCH‐UCHI PROPERTY

The previously announced Birch‐Uchi Property covering an area of 11,280 hectares, bridges the territory of the First Nations Treaty 3 and Treaty 9, located 80 km east of Red Lake (see Location map)

This large property is contiguous with Great Bear Resources’ Red Lake North project, the South Bay Mine (past producing) property and Prosper Gold Corp’s Golden Sidewalk project, where recent glacial till samples have outlined a strong gold-in till anomaly measuring 3500 m by 300m that follows the trend of a regional unconformity that is also present in the Red Lake Gold District. The Golden sidewalk target is projected to cross the Birch-Uchi project Key-Hole Block of claims in a north to south direction with an estimated exploration target strike length of approximately 2.5 km. Other notable new active projects in the region include Pacton Gold’s Swain and ALX Resources’ Vixen projects.

The Birch-Uchi Key-Hole Block of claims is located near Boundary Gold Corp’s Jackson-Manion Mine, which historically produced 29,778 oz. Au, and Prosper Gold’s Bathurst Mine which produced 307 oz. Au. The Birch‐Uchi Property is underlain by mafic to felsic metavolcanics of the Birch‐Uchi greenstone belt and more than 10 km of the Swain Lake deformation zone. There are a total of 29 historic mineral showings on the property with notable results including a drill intercept of 63.5 g/t over 0.7 m at Surprise Lake Northwest, 30.6 g/t Au over 1.3 m in a channel sample at the Heine showing and a grab sample of 15.8 g/t Au at the East Peanut Lake showing.

Bryan Wilson, President and CEO states, “The new Directors and I are excited to be asked to manage the next stage of development of Huntington. With the exciting discovery of insitu Gold Mineralization on Great Bears Dixie Property, and gold-in-till dispersion anomalies on Prosper Gold’s Sidewalk Project, all warrant a renewed examination of the geology east of Red Lake in the Woman Lake / Confederation Lake area. The Huntington claims host at least 29 gold occurrences according to the Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources archives, and on the property’s SE corner the claims are contiguous with the past producing (Copper, Zinc, and Silver) South Bay Mine. Huntington’s 2021 exploration program will start with a detailed Till and Geochemical sampling program, in addition to detailed mapping to trace the Prosper Gold’s Sidewalk trend onto the Huntington Key-Hole claim block. We expect that anomalies detected will be detailed with an Induced Polarization survey and drilling in late 2021.

Techniques learned and used will be applied to the larger Huntington claim block east of the Key-Hole block. 2021 Budget details are being prepared and will be announced soon.”
