The Samson property consists of 304 claims (168 km2) and covers, over a distance of more than 15 kilometres, a series of subsidiary structures identified in the first 5 kilometres south of the regional Lower Detour Fault. Last December, Wallbridge reported drill intercepts on Fenelon (Tabasco zone) grading up to 22.73 g/t Au over 48.01 metres (see press release by Wallbridge dated
Cautionary statement:
Mineralization occurring on the Fenelon property (Tabasco, Area 51, and Reaper zones) held by Wallbridge is not necessarily indicative of mineralization that may be found on the Samson property held by Midland and located nearby to the southeast.
New high-priority drilling target south of the Lower Detour Fault
Last December, a multi-separation induced polarization (“IP”) survey was conducted in the east part of the Samson property to investigate a folded magnetic structure interpreted as being located along a subsidiary fault to the south and proximal to the Lower Detour Fault.
The results of the IP survey show two subparallel axes with weak to moderate chargeability highs, as well as an area some 400 metres in diameter, where chargeability values are markedly higher, located directly in the nose of the folded magnetic structure.
This new drilling program comprises four (4) drill holes totalling 1,000 metres and is mainly designed to test chargeability IP anomalies located in the heart of the folded magnetic structure and associated with resistivity lows. The program also includes two (2) drill holes targeting chargeability anomalies that coincide with resistivity highs located immediately to the east of the fold nose.
Since 2009, Midland has been one of the most aggressive mineral exploration companies to take a strategic position in the Detour belt and has built an impressive portfolio of seven (7) high-quality gold properties now totalling 1,491 claims (820 km2). These land positions provide the Company with a commanding position on the major

* Mines and deposits located near Midland projects in the Detour belt
Zone 58N (Owned by Kirkland Lake Gold – Information from Kirkland Lake Gold website): This deposit hosts 2.87 million tonnes in indicated resources at a grade of 5.8 g/t Au (534,300 oz Au) and 0.97 million tonnes in inferred resources at a grade of 4.35 g/t Au (136,100 oz Au).
Fenelon (Owned by Wallbridge Mining Company – Information from Wallbridge website): 2018-2019 bulk sampling: 33,233 tonnes at 18.49 g/t Au.
Cautionary statements:
Mineralization occurring at the mines and deposits listed above is not necessarily indicative of mineralization that may be found on projects held by Midland described in this press release.
The true thickness of drill intercepts reported in this press release cannot be determined with the information currently available; intervals are thus reported in core length.
