Genesis Metals Corp. Announces New Resource Estimate for Chevrier Gold Project, Quebec Genesis Metals Corp. reported a new mineral resource estimate for the Main Zone and updates for the East and South Zones, classified as mineral inventories, at its Chevrier gold project near Chibougamau, Quebec. For the South Zone deposit, located immediately southwest and along strike from the Main Zone, a mineral inventory was updated based on remodelling of the mineralization and grade estimations into a block model. Tabulations within pitshells using gold prices of USD 1700 and USD 1870/oz provided tonnage and grade ranges for the South Zone deposit between 13 to 31 Mt at 0.70 to 0.60 g/t gold, respectively using a 0.30 g/t gold cut-off. This stated potential quantity and grade is conceptual in nature as there is currently insufficient exploration at this zone to define a mineral resource and it is uncertain if further exploration will result in the target being delineated as a mineral resource. The deposit modelling was based on 18 historic drillholes over a strike length of 1100 metres. Genesis will have to complete infill drilling to increase the confidence in continuity and gold grades derived from the historical drillholes in this deposit. A previously reported mineral resource estimation for the East Zone in 2019 has been reviewed and downgraded to a mineral inventory due to too few drillholes and uncertainty related to the continuity of the mineralization. LGGC assessed the 44,000 Oz of underground and In-pit Inferred Mineral Resources was too small to meet the requirement of Reasonable Prospects of Eventual Economic Extraction. The open pit mineral inventory is between 0.3 and 0.4 Mt at 1.23 to 1.26 g/t gold and underground mineral inventory between 0.20 and 0.70 Mt at 1.20 to 1.25 g/t gold. These values are based on the interpreted solids and blocks from the 2019 model but filtered using different zone combinations. This stated potential quantity and grade is conceptual in nature as there is currently insufficient exploration at this zone to define a mineral resource and it is uncertain if further exploration will result in the target being delineated as a mineral resource. The East Zone modelling was based on 32 drillholes over a strike length of 750 metres. For the Main Zone, the drill hole database is comprised of 220 holes with 63,640 metres of drilling. The mineral resource estimate is based on 1.0 metre composites (N=5,362) from 174 drill holes intersecting the mineralized zones over a strike length of 1400 metres. Extreme assay grades were capped and a restricted outlier strategy was applied to composites to allow elevated gold grades to influence local blocks. Correlograms were modeled to assess the gold grade continuity of each zone. Gold grades were estimated into 10x10x5 m blocks using ordinary kriging (OK) method, with additional runs using inverse distance squared (ID 2) and nearest neighbour (NN) methods for validation purposes. The estimates were validated and classified based on the gold grade continuity and drillhole density. Estimation methodology and classification were completed compliant to the standards of the Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum (CIM). The resource estimate and mineral inventories were constrained within optimized Lerchs-Grossmann constrained pits and the underground resources at the Main Zone were limited within resource solids with contiguous blocks above cut-off.

Genesis Metals Corp. Commences Exploration Program at October Gold Project in Ontario Genesis Metals Corp. reported it has launched a multifaceted exploration program at its 100% owned 26,430 hectare (264.3 square kilometre) road-accessible October Gold project in the Swayze greenstone belt, western Abitibi, Ontario. In order to advance exploration of the large, prospective, and strategically located October Gold project, and to evaluate the best tools to define gold targets for drill testing, the Company is deploying an array of exploration techniques this fall, including: Initial geological mapping, prospecting, rock sampling and channel sampling program currently under way. Property wide LiDAR survey has been completed and is being processed. LiDAR provides accurate 3D topographical representation of the surface below any vegetation; it compliments geological mapping and can resolve bedrock structures that potentially control gold mineralization. Property wide 15 cm scale aerial photography to produce an up to date and high resolution ortho-image which will be useful for evaluating access and identifying areas with outcrops. Surficial (Quaternary) geological mapping program underway to estimate overburden depths and resolve appropriate surveys to evaluate key covered areas. Orientation biogeochemical and geochemical survey across the interpreted strike of the Ridout deformation zone (RDZ) to evaluate effectiveness of these techniques. Planning underway for property wide high resolution aeromagnetic survey. The October Gold project is located in the southern Swayze greenstone belt in eastern Ontario. This belt segment represents the southwestern extension of the Abitibi greenstone belt, considered to be one of the most well-endowed mineral belts in the world for precious and base metal deposits. Despite being historically underexplored, the property has prospective geology, gold-fertile structural setting, and is located in a belt with excellent regional gold endowment. The property covers approximately 15 kilometre extent of the Ridout deformation zone (RDZ), a major structural break believed to represent the western extension of the renowned Kirkland Lake break. The RDZ is associated with the Cote Gold and Jerome gold deposits, 35 and 8 kilometres to the southeast of October Gold, respectively. These two significant gold exploration and development projects are owned by IAMGOLD Corporation and Sumitomo Metal Mining Co. Ltd. Genesis Metals will be carrying out a multifaceted exploration program over the remainder of 2021 and into 2022 to refine and identify prospective gold targets on the large strategically located October Gold property.

Genesis Metals Reports Chevrier Drill Results Genesis Metals Corp. announced on April 21, 2021, at its Chevrier Gold Project in the Chibougamau Mining Camp of the Abitibi Greenstone Belt, Quebec. A total of 4880 metres in 23 holes were drilled. A total of 1468 metres in 5 holes (including one hole that was abandoned 14 metres down hole and re-drilled) were drilled at the Main Zone deposit stepping out from GM-20-80 which intersected 13.46 g/t gold over 8.90 metres starting at 114.80 metres down hole and including 25.44 g/t gold over 3.00 metres. Highlights include. 11.97 g/t gold over 6.00 metres in hole GM-21-112 starting at 130.00 metres down hole, within a wider zone assaying 3.49 g/t gold over 24.00 metres starting at 122.50 metres down hole. 4.49 g/t gold over 3.50 metres in hole GM-21-110 starting at 238.50 metres down hole, within a wider zone assaying 1.18 g/t gold over 22.65 metres starting at 238.50 metres down hole. 7.42 g/t gold over 1.25 metres in hole GM-21-109A starting at 198.00 metres down hole, within a wider zone assaying 2.63 g/t gold over 9.60 metres starting at 196.50 metres down hole. In addition, 3412 metres in 18 holes (including 1 hole that was restarted after encountering a fault at 76 metres down hole) were drilled to test a series of exploration targets in an overburden covered area east of the Chevrier East Deposit as described. Although intervals of highly strained mafic to intermediate volcanic rocks, metasediments and mafic intrusives were observed, locally exhibiting alteration quartz-carbonate veining, only anomalous gold mineralization was identified. Fox Chevrier Main Zone: The Fox-area drillholes were dominated by leucoxene bearing gabbro with lesser mafic volcanic and tuffaceous intervals in the upper and lower portions of the holes. All four holes cut multiple intervals of gold mineralization associated with high strain and characterized by chlorite-fuchsite-sericite alteration and centimeter to decimeter scale quartz-carbonate +/- tourmaline veining and variable pyrite mineralization ranging from 5-10%. Drill holes GM-21-109, 109A and 110 were drilled from the same pad located 74 metres south
southeast of GM-20-80 which intersected 13.46 g/t gold over 8.90 metres starting at 114.80 metres down hole and including 25.44 g/t gold over 3.00 metres. GM-21-109 was abandoned at 14 metres depth and re-started. Hole GM-21-109A intersected six discrete mineralized intervals including 9.6 metres averaging 2.63 g/t gold starting at 196.50 metres down hole and including 1.25 metres averaging 7.42 g/t gold. Hole GM-21-110 cut 7 discrete mineralized zones including 22.65 metres averaging 1.18 g/t gold starting at 238.50 metres down hole and including 3.50 metres averaging 4.49 g/t gold. Holes GM-21-111 and 112 were drilled from the same platform 41 metres to southeast of GM21-80 in an area of the Main Zone on the same section that remained open subsequent to the 2020 Phase II drilling. Hole GM-21-111 intersected 5 mineralized intervals, including 4.10 metres averaging 4.28 g/t gold starting at 121.90 metres down hole and including 1.65 metres averaging 9.94 g/t gold. Hole GM21-112 intersected 8 mineralized intervals. The top of the mineralized interval averaging 3.49 g/t gold over 24.00 metres starting at 122.50 metres down hole in GM21-112 was separated approximately 19 metres from the top of the assay interval noted above for GM20-80 that started at 114.8 0 metres down hole. Based on the results from GM-21-110 and GM-21-112 there is potential in this area to extend mineralization to depth with additional drill holes. East Target Area: The area east of the Chevrier East deposit was originally prioritized due to the results of the property wide glacial till sampling program carried out in 2019 and follow-up sampling in 2020. Individual holes were sited based on a combination of exploration tools including magnetic low features, induced polarization (IP) chargeability highs, ionic leach soil geochemical anomalies and structural interpretations. These holes were deployed within an approximately 2-kilometre square area. Overburden depth ranged from 2.9 to 25.0 metres, averaging 9.9 metres down hole and was overall significantly thicker than expected and may have impacted the gold in till results interpretation from the previous surveys, particularly in the central and western parts of the target area. Reassessment of this data will be carried out prior to additional exploration for the source of the significant gold-in-till anomalies in this area.
