Sama Resources Inc. announced assay results from four additional drill holes from the 2021-22 drilling campaign at the Grata nickel-copper prospect. Sama drilled a total of 85 drill holes totalling 26,787 metres ("m") at the Ivory Coast project in 2021-22, including 45 drill holes totalling 14,893 m at the Grata prospect and 21 holes for 5,643 m at the Samapleu deposit. The assay results for holes GR-24 to GR- 26 and GR-28 at Grata are summarized in this release.

Assays results for fourteen holes drilled at the Grata deposit are pending. Sama's Ivorian project is comprised of five exploration permits for 850 square kilometers. More than twenty targets were outlined from geophysical surveys, out of which only three zones have been explored.

Grata: Latest discovery in the Yacouba Ultramafic-Mafic ("UM") Intrusive Complex: In September 2021, Sama announced the Grata discovery located 5 kilometres east of the Samapleu deposit. The discovery hole, GR-03, drilled in June 2021, returned a 310 m sequence of pyroxenite and gabbro containing a 147 m interval of disseminated sulphides and several intersections of semi-massive sulphide mineralisation. The second hole, GR-04, confirmed the width of the mineralised zone with a 141 m mineralised intersection, including 6.4 m grading 1.05% nickel ("Ni"), 1.28% copper ("Cu") and 0.48 grams per tonne ("gpt") palladium ("Pd") and 6.6 m grading 0.73% Ni, 0.38% Cu and 0.30 gpt Pd.

Previous intersections included hole GR-21 with a combined 191.70 m of mineralised material, including 11.85 m grading 0.82% Ni, 0.68% Cu and 0.99 gpt of Pd and 108.20 m at 0.32% Ni, 0.38% Cu and 0.50 gpt Pd. This release discloses results for hole GR-25 which intersected a combined 179.85 m of mineralisation including 37.40 m at 0.24% Ni, 0.45% Cu and 0.54 gpt Pd and 116.95 m at 0.23% Ni, 0.23% Cu and 0.32 gpt Pd and hole GR-28 returning 194 m of combined mineralised zones including 97.85 m grading 0.30% Ni, 0.34% Cu and 0.24 gpt Pd. GR-11 drilled in January 2022 along the same section returned 212 m of combined mineralised zones including 8.20 m at 0.84% Ni, 1.10% Cu and 1.24 gpt Pd, with several narrow massive and semi-massive stringers scattered through the mineralized intervals.

Hole GR-26 includes an interval of 80.75 m grading 0.33% Ni, 0.40% Cu and 0.30 gpt Pd. The mineralisation at Grata is similar in composition to the Samapleu deposit ("Samapleu") but shows a higher proportion of chalcopyrite. Metallurgical studies are ongoing using Grata and Samapleu material.

Sama's goal is to increase mineral resources at Samapleu and Grata as well as searching for massive sulphide veins and lenses that could have accumulated at depth in traps and embayments along the feeder system of the Yacouba UM Intrusive Complex.
