Provides Up-date on 2020 Underground Drilling Program at Bull River Mine ProjectCalgary, Alberta--(Newsfile Corp. - March 23, 2020) - Braveheart Resources Inc. (TSXV: BHT) (\"Braveheart\" or the \"Company\") announces that it has completed 831 metres of diamond drilling from underground workings at the Bull River Mine project in February and March of 2020. The purpose of the drilling program is to test the down dip extension of the vein systems under the current workings. A total of 3,000 metres of drilling is currently planned for 2020. To-date five drill holes have been completed from 9 Level, which represents the deepest level of the mine about 350 metres below the elevation of the mine portal. All five drill holes intersected mineralized structures in the central portion of the South Vein at depth. Previous drilling programs of the northern and southern extents of the South Vein had intersected mineralized structures at similar depths. Assay results have been received for one hole and the remaining assay results are expected within the next 30 days. The current 2020 drilling program has been temporarily placed on hold pending the return of analytical results from the final four holes and better clarity on the social and financial impacts of the coronavirus disease (COVID-19). To ensure the safety of our staff and contractors, effective immediately, the Company has taken the precautionary measures of shutting down all non-essential work at the project in order to reduce interactions of staff and contractors to a minimum.Analytical results have been received for DDH BRU20-01, the first intersection of the South Vein in the current program. The hole was drilled on 9 Level and collared in 9E4 XC Ext Remuck at an azimuth of 052.5 degrees and dip of -26 degrees intersecting the mineralized structure approximately 50 metres below 9 Level. The mineralized intersection from 135.0 to 137.2 metres, a 2.2 metre interval represents an approximate true width of 1.8 metres. The composite grade of the interval is 1.46% Cu, 0.46 gpt Au and 9.85 gpt Ag. Included within this intersection from 136.0 and 136.37 metres is a 0.37 metre intersection with a composite grade of 4.99% Cu, 1.6 gpt Au and 30 gpt Ag. These values are within the range commonly found at the mine. The Company is encouraged by these results and the p...
