(TSXV: SKP) (OTCQB: STKXF) (\"StrikePoint\" or the \"Company\") is pleased to announce surface results from its mapping and sampling program at its 100%-owned Willoughby property, located east of Stewart in British Columbia's prolific Golden Triangle. StrikePoint CEO, Shawn Khunkhun, states \"We are extremely encouraged by the high-grade nature of samples received from newly exposed areas that are right on the margins of melting ice, demonstrating the vast potential of the Willoughby property. We eagerly await the pending 40 meters of channel samples and 6 drill hole assays.\" 2019 Willoughby SamplingThe company received assay results from 86 grab samples from the 2019 surface program. Assay results range from trace to 67.3 g/t Au and trace to 281 g/t Ag. A total of 18 samples assayed over 1.0 g/t Au. Samples from the Willoughby nunataq that comprise the North-North, North, Edge, Wilkie, Wilby, Lower & Upper Icefall zones range from 0.07 to 67.3 g/t Au and 2 to 281.00 g/t Ag. The thirty-two samples were collected along installed via Ferrata routes and areas of ice recession, notable area of mineralization around the Wilkie zone, returned 67.3 g/t Au and 164 g/t Ag grab sample.Forty of these samples are from the Willow zone area, where extensive ice recession occurred to the North. A sampling of the newly exposed ground uncovered massive to semi-massive pyrite-pyrrhotite-galena in veins and replacement-style mineralization. Samples range from 0.07 to 16.5 g/t Au and 2 to 136 g/t Ag. Forty meters of channel sample assays are pending, collected further along and across mineralization strike in the northern Willow area.Figure 1: Willoughby project Geochemistry Surface Sample mapTo view an enhanced version of Figure 1, please visit:https://orders.newsfilecorp.com/files/5044/49523_daf3a90ee46b198d_002full.jpgWilloughby projectThe project is located along the eastern margin of the Cambria Icefield, approximately 7 kilometers east of the advanced-staged Red Mountain Gold Deposit that was recently acquired by Ascot Resources from IDM Mining.
