(\"BTU\" or the \"Company\") (BTU-TSX:V) is pleased to announce that results from the SGH soil sampling program have been received and the interpretive report of the survey data indicates two gold target zones with approximate surface areas of 650,000 m2 and 140,000 m2 in the Dixie Creek Target area. This is the same technique neighboring Great Bear Resources (\"GBR\") has successfully used to identify drill targets along the LP trend with numerous discoveries made in 2019. (For further information on the SGH technique and results visit www.btumetals.com/sgh). Figure 1 below highlights the SGH gold pathfinder zones and the predicted zones of gold mineralization are circled.Bruce Durham, VP of Exploration, asserted; \"Exploration under cover is always a challenge, however SGH has proven to be a useful tool for glimpsing under the blanket of glacial till in the area, even on our neighbour's property, so we completed an initial limited survey as a start and the results are very encouraging. Exploration under cover is also an opportunity to find near surface mineralization that has been missed by generations of prospectors who would have walked right over it because it doesn't outcrop. It is encouraging that other geological and geophysical data support the results of our SGH program in the Dixie Creek Target area. Several drill targets have been defined and we expect to recommence drilling in the Dixie Creek area shortly. On the TNT target, the geological team continues full force with drilling, cutting new lines for IP and soon we will commence downhole EM. This is an exciting time for our shareholders.\"TNT UpdateA downhole EM program has been commissioned to target high-grade massive sulphide ...
