Sego Resources : Intersects 59 Metres and 88 Metres of >1 Gram Tonne Gold at Miner Mountain Project

Vancouver - Sego Resources Inc. (TSXV: SGZ) ('Sego' or 'the Company') is delighted to announce results from two diamond drill holes in the Southern Gold Zone of the Miner Mountain Porphyry Copper-Gold project near Princeton, BC.

The Southern Gold Zone is an intrusion disseminated hosted gold zone discovered during the Company's 2020 field program.

The two holes penetrate variable microdiorite, minor monzonite or monzodiorite, diorite, tuff or local bedded tuffaceous sediments. Variable textures in the generally fine-grained units exhibit episodic intrusion events, intrusion breccias, hornfelsed host rocks, many crackled and all overprinted by chloritic or K-feldspar dominant alteration assemblages. Brittle brecciation generates a chaotic fragmental texture and late carbonate veins, veinlets, microfractures or stockwork occur throughout most rock types.

Below 5 to 10 m depth both holes 46 and 47 contain 1 to 2% pyrite. An 2 mm filigree grain of electrum occurs in a massive very fine-grained K-feldspar vein in hole 46 at 29.0 m otherwise gold is not visible in the remaining portions of the holes. K-feldspar also occurs as irregular patches or fillings, selvages, veins or dikelets surrounded by pervasive chlorite alteration where both assemblages normally contain disseminated pyrite, blebs or cut by pyrite fractures. In the higher-grade zone (>2 gpt Au) better grades are associated with common K-feldspar-pyrite alteration whereas chlorite dominate alteration ranges from >0.1 to 1 gpt Au. Blebs of chalcopyrite occur sporadically in the elevated gold zone particularly in the deeper hole 47 and may indicate deeper, more typical porphyry Cu-Au mineralization.

The style of the Southern Gold Zone is a distal gold mineralization most likely associated with a deeper or lateral alkali distal porphyry Cu-Au system. The zone overlaps the north margin of an 500 m diameter magnetic high thought to reflect a subjacent intrusion. Magnetite content is very low or none-existent in both drill holes.

Future drilling will be oriented southeast to test the depth extent of the grade and width beneath the zone and sub-parallel sections on either side of holes 46 and 47 to test the lateral extension of the gold zone. Petrology on select drill core and preliminary metallurgical testing on drill rejects will also be completed in the coming weeks.

About the Project

Sego is 100% owner of the Miner Mountain project, an alkalic copper-gold porphyry exploration project near Princeton, British Columbia. The property is 2,056 hectares in size and is located 15 kilometres north of the Copper Mountain Mine operated by Copper Mountain Mining Corporation and Mitsubishi Copper. Sego has a Memorandum of Understanding with the Upper Similkameen Indian Band on whose Traditional Territory the Miner Mountain project is situated. Sego has received an Award of Excellence for its reclamation work at Miner Mountain.
