Fireweed Zinc Ltd. announced the first results from the 2020 drilling at the Macmillan Pass Project in Yukon, Canada. These results are from Boundary Zone, located 15 road kilometres west of the Tom-Jason deposits. The 2020 drill program was completed in October, but these are the first assays to be announced due to slow turn around at the lab operating under COVID-19 limitations. Infill and step-out drilling at Boundary Zone has successfully encountered wide zones of zinc-lead mineralization, significantly expanding the extent of the known mineralization. Drill hole NB20-002, reported in this news release, was drilled obliquely, and in the opposite direction to previous drilling and extends central Boundary Zone 150 m beyond previously drilled mineralization in this direction. This 150 m extension includes high-grade zinc mineralization, such as the 33 m intersection of 8.38% Zinc (227-260 m) that includes 5.81 m of 25.58% Zinc. Central Boundary Zone now extends from surface down to 300 m. The zone remains open at depth as hole NB20-002 was terminated in mineralization due to drilling difficulties and would otherwise have been drilled deeper. At central Boundary Zone, Fireweed drill holes from 2020 (NB20-001 and NB20-002), and 2019 (NB19-001 and NB19-002) were all drilled at different azimuths or dips to test whether vein orientations are biasing grades in drill holes oriented near-parallel to the veins. Consistent average zinc grades throughout all four holes suggest that there is not a significant grade bias that is dependent on drill orientation and that the mineralization comprises an approximately 230-250 m thick stratabound sequence with vein stockworks, breccias and replacement-style zinc mineralization. True widths of individual cm- to m-scale veins intersected in NB20-001 and NB20-002 vary greatly from 20% to 95% of intersected thicknesses but the overall true thickness of central Boundary Zone is 230-250 m. A total of nine holes were drilled at Boundary Zone this season for 2,948 m. Additional 2020 drill holes targeted a ground-gravity high anomaly surveyed in 2020 and resulted in the discovery of new wide sections of pyrite-sphalerite-galena mineralization, extending Boundary Zone at least 360 m to the west in a new discovery named Boundary Zone West. Assays for the discovery holes at Boundary Zone West are pending and descriptions of all holes drilled in the 2020 season. Boundary Zone Potential: There is no mineral resource for Boundary Zone yet and the zone is not included in the current mineral resource estimate for the property. Boundary Zone has potential to be mined in an open pit with a low strip ratio and to be upgraded through low cost, preconcentration ore sorting processes. Recent drill results at Boundary Zone along with Tom North Zone and End Zone represent potential for expansion of the large current mineral resources and improvement of Macmillan Pass project economics described in the current Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA). Boundary Zone Background: Boundary Zone mineralization consists of sphalerite-siderite-pyrite and minor galena in veins, stockworks, disseminations, and as replacement of matrix and clasts within coarse clastic rocks. Drilling in 2020 at Boundary Zone West also identified stratiform mineralized sequences similar to the Tom and Jason deposits. Historical exploration work at Boundary Zone included geochemical and geophysical surveys as well as 24 drill holes that defined a central 200 x 800 m mineralized zone of zinc (-lead-silver) mineralization within a broader system over 2 km in strike length. Historical length-weighted average intersections1 such as 224.0 m of 2.50% zinc and 0.30% lead, including 4.5 m of 16.40% zinc, are consistent with recent Fireweed drilling and demonstrated potential for bulk tonnage open pit mineralization. In 2019, Fireweed drilled two holes into the central part of the known Boundary Zone mineralization. Both holes intersected wide zones of high-grade replacement-style and vein- and breccia-hosted zinc mineralization, including 100.0 m (true width) of 8.73% zinc from surface including 6.4 m of 43.53% zinc within 230.0 m of 4.51% zinc.
