(TSXV: STA) (\"Sanatana\", the \"Company\") is mobilizing field crews to return to the highly prospective Oweegee porphyry copper / epithermal gold prospect that straddles Highway 37 in BC's Golden Triangle. The focus will be to conduct a 3-D IP survey on the Delta prospect and newly discovered East Bear Creek zones (see Figure 1). In 2022 the Company's 3-D IP survey revealed five separate IP anomalies (see Figure 2). The IP anomalies represent zones of chargeability interpreted to be pyrite / sulphide haloes around distinct and separate, porphyry copper systems. To date, Sanatana has only drill tested one IP chargeability system where the Company encountered significant copper, gold and molybdenum mineralization. Buddy Doyle, President of Sanatana, stated, \"The discovery of the East Bear Creek area was a significant addition to our knowledge of the Oweegee Dome project, unveiling new copper, precious metal and base metal mineralization as well as expanding the mineralized footprint to some 4.5km in extent.\" The Snowpatch (upper and lower), Jack, Junction and Dome anomalies remain untested high-priority drill targets. The IP survey is designed to expand and further define the Junction anomaly which remains open to the east and to explore the mineralized and altered outcrops recently found at East Bear Creek.

The East Bear Creek zone, discovered in the last weeks of the 2022 season is a new area of significant mineralization and alteration hosted in intrusive The IP survey will test the concept that the Delta Ridge and Bear Creek could in fact be connected. These new systems, the Upper East Bear Creek area and the Lower East Bear Creek area, increase the mineralized footprint of the Delta Prospect 1km to the east and 1km to the north.
