BeMetals Corp. announced that its wholly owned Japanese operating company Kazan Resources ("Kazan"), has recently received a number of high-grade surface sampling results from geological reconnaissance field work, undertaken in August this year, at its Todoroki Property ("Todoroki" or the "Project") on Hokkaido Island, in northern Japan. This first batch of results highlights the relatively near-term opportunity for BeMetals to generate concise, shallow depth, drill targets within the unmined high-grade gold veins of the historical Todoroki mine's boundary. Also, the encouraging gold assays from the quartz vein float sampling trail, in the South Shiari River area, indicate that previously unrecognised vein targets exist in the upper levels of this epithermal gold system, covered by younger volcanic units. In addition, this new target area is potentially accessible from relatively shallow surface drilling along the mountainside. In parallel with the Todoroki Project's field reconnaissance work, new targets at the Kato Project are being refined from existing data for drill testing. Energold Drilling is working closely with the Company, and has shipped a new SDS C1500 core drill rig to Hokkaido, which is now being transported to the Kato exploration site. Drilling is expected to commence upon the anticipated easing of Covid-19 related international travel restrictions in Japan in-line with the significant reduction in daily case numbers and high levels of vaccine up- take now achieved." This Project targets high grade epithermal gold-silver mineralization encompassed within some 590 hectares of prospecting rights which include the historical Todoroki Mine discovered in 1896 ? the oldest gold-and- silver mine in Hokkaido. Recorded production at the Todoroki Mine from 1925 until 1943 was approximately 200,000 ounces of Au, and 7.4 million ounces of Ag. Mining was temporarily halted in 1943 but resumed operation after WWII. Mining continued intermittently until the 1980s but production information for this period is uncertain. Detailed geological studies by a Japanese group in the early 1970s concluded that in addition to the 13 known vein occurrences at Todoroki, there were numerous other undeveloped veins and alteration halos surrounding potential vein zones that required investigation. The veins are composed of quartz, calcite, and adularia with local rhodochrosite. The veins are distributed over a 4.5km (East-West) by 1.5km (North-South) area and range in length between 500 and 1,500 metres, with documented widths ranging from 1 to more than 10 metres. The objective of the current reconnaissance exploration work is to locate, sample, and map unmined veins in the historical mine area with the potential to provide drill targets for near term testing. This batch of surface sampling totalled 118 samples. The gold and silver grades of the sampling results above 0.1 g/t Au. Of this batch 27 samples returned grades above 0.1 g/t ranging from 0.1 to 41.10 g/t Au with 0.6 to 1,070 g/t Ag. There were 91 samples below 0.1 g/t Au within this batch. The sampling of historical mine dump or stockpile material was avoided. The two chipped channel samples of 9.43 g/t Au with 442.5 g/t Ag over 2.10 metres of 9.29 g/t Au with 656.5 g/t Ag over 2.5 metres, respectively. These samples were taken across outcropping veins within the Koetsu Vein area. The presence of outcropping veins and mine development end faces with vein material in-situ underground, suggest that unmined portions of the Koetsu vein system may remain. Evidence on the surface east of these workings indicate that the veins continue in that direction. One core hole 600 metres northeast and along strike of the Koetsu veins was drilled in the early 1970s that intersected three vein zones. Only one vein was sampled at a depth of around 154.5 metres which yielded 116 g/t Au and 1,540 g/t Ag. The true thickness of the vein is unknown, but it was intersected between 154.4 and 155.7 metres (1.30 metre drilled width). Sample ID number 633471 was chipped from the portal area of an adit and returned 41.10 g/t Au with 1,070.0 g/t Ag. While this vein was previously mined, some high-grade material remains in-situ. This could indicate that only the very highest-grade zones within the veins were historically mined, therefore providing potential for exploration near such partially extracted veins. Of special interest within this batch of sampling results are those related to a quartz float trail referred to as the Shirai River (South) area. This trail of auriferous quartz vein float material extends up to the base of younger cover volcanic units to the epithermal gold system. There are no historical records or physical evidence of mining activity in this area and samples ranging from 0.10 to 1.36 g/t Au in one drainage and 0.23 to 0.88 g/t Au in an adjacent area immediately South of the drainage are very encouraging. This data is interpreted to indicate that there is unexplored potential for higher level gold bearing veins extending up to and concealed under the covering volcanic units. Further exploration should be able to identify drill targets in this area, which significantly increases the scale of the target footprint on the Todoroki Property.
