[{"type":"text","content":" Highlights: Initial surface sampling and prospecting programs were completed in November 2020. This work identified numerous gold-bearing and gold/silver-bearing quartz vein systems on the Gold Rush property. Best gold result was from a grab sample of 59.2 g/t from a brittle ductile shear at the DeSantis prospect. Best gold results from other prospects were 27.3 g/t @ North Shaft, 11.2 g/t @ North Vein, 8.41g/t @ DC, 6.45 g/t @ Leduc, 5.06 g/t at Staten, and 3.54g/t @ Leduc. The quartz vein systems in general show a 5:1 Ag to Au ratio with the best silver result coming from the North Shaft prospect @ >100 g/t. Close spaced (50m) airborne magnetic survey conducted by a drone, used to aid the prospecting and understanding of the geology, highlights the structural framework of the property. Line cutting and IP and CSAMT geophysical surveys are ongoing in preparation for an initial drill program scheduled to begin this quarter, subject to Covid-19 restrictions. Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - January 13, 2021) - Sanatana Resources Inc. (TSXV: STA) (\"Sanatana\" or the \"Company\") is pleased to provide this exploration update from its Gold Rush project in the Timmins region of Ontario. Assays have been received from our sampling program conducted in the third and fourth quarters of 2020. A total of 234 samples were taken of which 34 samples returned results in excess of 1 g/t of Au. The highlight of the program was in a sample from the DeSantis prospect which returned a result of 59.2 g/t Au and 41.7 g/t Ag and a sample from the North Shaft prospect of 27.3 g/t Au and in excess of 100 g/t Ag. Buddy Doyle, President of Sanatana comments, \"It is remarkable that with less than 10% of the Gold Rush property exposed in outcrop, eight prospective gold and gold/silver quartz vein systems have been located and sampled. We look forward to our initial drill program that will test a number of these prospects. We expect to generate other geophysical drill targets once full results are received from our ongoing IP and CSAMT surveys.\" Table 1 lists all the assays greater than 1 g/t Au from the sampling program.
