Toronto, Ontario -- January 20, 2020 -- Wallbridge Mining Company Limited (TSX:WM, FWB: WC7) ("Wallbridge" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that in addition to recent high-grade results in the Lower Tabasco Zone (see Wallbridge Press Release dated January 06, 2020), the ongoing exploration drilling has also intersected wide zones of gold mineralization showing bulk mining potential in Area 51 on its 100%-owned Fenelon Gold Property ("Fenelon" or the "Property").
"Our focus on the property over the last few months has been dedicated to achieving several goals. Firstly, we are following up on high-grade, underground bulk-minable resource development particularly in the Lower Tabasco Zone. Secondly, while drilling for the Lower Tabasco Zone, we are testing the Area 51 zones and as such are beginning to determine both the open-pit and underground bulk mining resource potential for Area 51. The wide intersections of near-surface gold mineralization, such as 1.21 g/t Au over 70.99 metres in hole FA-19-080, identified in the Andromeda Corridor of Area 51, have the potential to positively impact the overall economics at Fenelon", stated Marz Kord, President & CEO of Wallbridge. "Fenelon is situated along the Sunday Lake Deformation Zone, the same structure which hosts the Detour Lake mine, one of Canada's largest open pit gold mines; the near-surface drill results to date and the indications of its expansion to the south and to the west are reminiscent of the Detour Gold's early development."
Area 51 Andromeda Corridor Highlights (Exploration Drilling)
Lower Tabasco Zone Highlights (Exploration Drilling)
FA-19-080: | 1.21 g/t Au over 70.99 metres in the Enterprise zone, including |
19-0915-011: | 1.01 g/t Au over 132.00 metres, including |
19-0915-016: | 0.88 g/t Au over 167.31 metres, including |
FA-19-090: | 1.52 g/t Au over 31.10 metres, including |
FA-19-092: | 1.53 g/t Au over 19.95 metres, including 13.81 g/t Au over 0.85 metres (see Figs. 1,2 and 9).
|
FA-19-099: | 1.86 g/t Au over 18.92 metres, including 7.73 g/t Au over 3.53 metres in the Titan zone (see Figs. 1 and 9).

Lower Tabasco Zone Highlights (Exploration Drilling)
FA-19-099: | Further gold-bearing assay results have been received surrounding the interval of 5.06 g/t Au 4.16 g/t Au over 35.55 metres, including 6.95 g/t Au over 7.50 metres and 6.72 g/t Au over 7.50 metres |
FA-19-075: | 3.03 g/t Au over 18.49 metres, including 6.18 g/t Au over 8.00 metres (see Figs. 1,3 and 6) |
"The updated interval of 4.16 g/t Au over 35.55 metres in FA-19-099, which is currently our deepest intersection at Fenelon, highlights the continuing strength of the gold system at 850 metres vertical depth and we are looking forward to testing this zone down to 1,500 metres with this year's drill program," stated Attila Péntek, Vice President Exploration of Wallbridge. "In addition to receiving assays over the next several weeks from a number of visually strong intersections in the Lower Tabasco Zone, such as FA-019-096, -098, -103 and -104, we are looking forward to results from several near-surface intersections, such as in holes FA-19-098 and FA-19-106, to continue demonstrating the open pit resource potential in the Andromeda Corridor."
Main Gabbro, Serrano Zone Highlights (Definition Drilling)
19-1110-004: | 4.74 g/t Au over 5.88 metres, including 31.90 g/t Au over 0.60 metres |
19-1110-010: | 19.44 g/t Au over 3.27 metres, including 65.20 g/t Au over 0.80 metres |
2019/2020 Drill Program
Six drill rigs are currently active on the Property: five are focusing on exploration drilling from surface, doing large-spaced step-outs to define the footprint of the Fenelon gold system, and one underground drill rig is doing more closely spaced definition drilling of the Main Gabbro zones near the existing mine workings. A total of 75,000 metres were drilled in 2019 and the program will be continuing in 2020 with the same drilling rate of approximately 9,000 metres per month for a total of 100,000 to 120,000 metres.
Assay results of 8 surface holes and 23 underground holes of the 2019 exploration drill program are reported in Table 1 and the Figures. Assays are pending for 24 surface drill holes and 82 underground holes with the majority of the latter being short (< 50 m) definition drill holes in the Main Gabbro Zone.
All figures and a table with drill hole information of recently completed holes can be found on the Company website.

About the Fenelon Gold Property
The Fenelon Gold Property is located proximal to the Sunday Lake Deformation Zone, an emerging gold belt in northwestern Quebec. This major east-west structure in the northern Abitibi greenstone belt hosts the Detour Lake mine, and is very similar to other breaks controlling world-class gold camps in the southern Abitibi, yet it remains underexplored due to thick glacial cover.
At Fenelon, secondary splays of the Sunday Lake Deformation Zone have controlled the emplacement of a significant gold system along and within the Jeremie Pluton. Historically, exploration has focused on high-grade shear zones hosted in the Main Gabbro, and this is where Wallbridge completed a bulk sample of 33,500 tonnes grading 18.49 g/t gold.
In late 2018, exploration drilling discovered a new geologic setting with extensive vein- and shear-hosted gold mineralization along and within the pluton, naming it Area 51. The 75,000 m 2019 drill program has proven the connectivity of Area 51 through the sediment-hosted Tabasco and Cayenne Zones to the Main Gabbro and has significantly expanded the footprint and depth extent of the Fenelon gold system. The ongoing, fully funded 100,000 to 120,000 metre 2020 drill program is aiming to further define the size potential of the deposit and complete in-fill drilling in support of a maiden 43-101 resource estimate.
Assay QA/QC and Qualified Persons
Drill core samples from the ongoing drill program at Fenelon are cut and bagged either on site or by contractors and transported to either SGS Canada Inc. or ALS Canada Ltd for analysis. Samples, along with standards, blanks and duplicates included for quality assurance and quality control, were prepared and analyzed at SGS Canada Inc. or ALS Canada Ltd. laboratories. Samples are crushed to 90% or 95% less than 2mm. A 1kg riffle split is pulverized to >95% passing 106 microns or 85% passing 75 microns. 50g samples are analyzed by fire assay and AAS. At SGS, samples >10g/t Au are automatically analyzed by fire assay with gravimetric finish or screen metallic analysis. To test for coarse free gold and for additional quality assurance and quality control, Wallbridge requests screen metallic analysis for samples containing visible gold. These and future assay results may vary from time to time due to re-analysis for quality assurance and quality control.
The Qualified Person responsible for the technical content of this press release is Evan Slater, P.Geo., M.Sc., Senior Project Geologist of Wallbridge.
About Wallbridge Mining
Wallbridge is establishing a pipeline of projects that will support sustainable 100,000 ounce-plus annual gold production as well as organic growth through exploration and scalability.
The Company is currently developing its 100%-owned Fenelon Gold Property, which is located proximal to the Sunday Lake Deformation Zone, an emerging gold belt in northwestern Quebec with ongoing 100,000 to 120,000 m exploration drill program in 2020 and a 33,500-tonne bulk sample and 75,000 m drilling completed in 2019. Wallbridge is also pursuing additional advanced-stage projects which would add to the Company's near-term project pipeline. Wallbridge is also the operator of, and a 20% shareholder in, Loncan Canada Inc., a privately-held company with a large portfolio of nickel, copper, and PGM projects in Ontario's Sudbury Basin.

A number of risk factors may cause actual results, level of activity, performance or outcomes of such exploration and/or mine development to be materially different from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements including, without limitation, whether such discoveries will result in commercially viable quantities of such mineralized materials, the possibility of changes to project parameters as plans continue to be refined, the ability to execute planned exploration and future drilling programs, the need for additional funding to continue exploration and development efforts, changes in general economic, market and business conditions, and those other risks set forth in Wallbridge's most recent annual information form under the heading "Risk Factors" and in its other public filings. Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and such information is inherently subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that are difficult to predict and may be beyond the control of Wallbridge.
