(TSXV: HANS) (\"Hanstone\" or the \"Company\") is pleased to announce the successful completion of their 2020 exploration program on their flagship DOC property located in British Columbia's Golden Triangle.Conducted with the assistance of their technical team at Axiom Exploration Group Ltd. (\"Axiom\"), Hanstone's maiden drilling program consisted of 21 drillholes totalling approximately 2,700 m and focused on high priority historic and newly discovered target areas.Figure 1To view an enhanced version of Figure 1, please visit:https://orders.newsfilecorp.com/files/6279/65844_fig1.jpgThe summer program was designed as a first pass evaluation to test six of twelve high priority areas over the DOC claims including the Q19, Galena Ridge, Q17, Q22, Q26 and Q28 target areas.The summer exploration program was augmented by prospecting to verify historical high-grade Au, structural mapping, satellite analysis, and geological mapping.An unconstrained 3D inversion of the historic ground magnetics survey was also completed to strengthen the understanding of subsurface geology. To conclude the summer program Axiom's UAV & Geomatics Division conducted a high-resolution UAV Magnetics survey over 245 line-kms of the property to aid in the identification of controlling structures and to highlight additional areas of interest for follow up drilling. Processing of the data is underway with results expected in late Q4 2020.During the 2020 exploration program, the DOC camp was upgraded to support larger scale drilling programs, and plans are in place to further upgrade camp to support up to 4 diamond drilling rigs on the property.
