[{"type":"text","content":"Metals Creek Confirms Gold Mineralization Continues at Depth at The Dona Lake Gold Mine, Drills 8.07 g/t Gold Over 7 Meters Including 17.6 g/t Gold Over 1 MeterToronto, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - September 15, 2020) - Metals Creek Resources Corp. (TSXV: MEK) (the \"Corporation\") is pleased to announce the final results from its recently completed diamond drill program from the Dona Lake Gold project. Hole DL20-003 was designed to test for the continuation of gold mineralization below the lower most level of the Dona lake Mine (455 level). This hole penetrated the Main Zone at approximately 500m below surface and returned a core length intercept of 8.07 grams per tonne (g/t) Gold (Au) over 7 meters (m) (531.6 - 538.6 m). Included in this intercept is a high grade intercept of 17.6 g/t Au over 1 m (See Table Below).Mineralization is hosted within silicate-sulfide iron formation and characterized by stringer to semi-massive pyrrhotite ranging from 3 to 30% with local pyrite and magnetite. Alteration includes strong silicification with associated quartz veining and locally moderate to strong grunerite, garnet and biotite in conjunction with strong folding.Table 1.

Included in this release was hole DL20-002 which returned a core length intercept of 8.45 g/t Au over 3.15m (254.85-259.00m). This intercept was a part of a broader zone of mineralization returning a core length intercept of 5.67 g/t Au over 5.15m (254.85-260.00m).Drill intercepts reported in holes DL20-001, 002, and 003 are not true widths. There is insufficient data at this point to determine a true orientation.Alexander (Sandy) Stares, President and CEO of Metals Creek states, \"Management is highly encouraged with the drill results from this initial drill program on the Dona lake Gold project. A substantial amount of time has gone into generating the current Dona Lake geological model from data that was in non-digital form. Hole DL20-003 authenticates the current model and demonstrates the continuation ...
