Maritime Announces Second Set of Drill Results From J, K, L & M3 Veins at Hammerdown With a high of 29.13 g/t Au over 2.04 m and Anaconda Data Room Access

04.06.2018  |  Newsfile
Vancouver, June 4, 2018 - Maritime Resources Corp. (TSXV: MAE) ("Maritime") is pleased to announce the second set of drill results from the 2018 drill program. The drill program was designed to test the near surface gold potential of the J, K, L & M3 veins outlined from surface trenching program last fall. (see News Release MAE 17-12, November 16th, 2017)

Numerous gold intersections were encountered in these drill holes, including 2.08 metres grading 20.94 g/t Au in the J Vein and 2.04 metres grading 29.13 g/t Au in the RM Vein, located immediately east of the Rumbullion Fault. A number of other high grade gold intercepts were also intersected, which are detailed in the Table of Assays, below.

To date 1,700 meters of drilling has been completed in 31 drill holes designed to test the near surface potential of the unmined J, K L and M3 gold rich quartz/sulphide veins. These veins are immediately south of the historical open pit mining at Hammerdown (see figure below). The drill program tested the vein system down to 30 meters below surface with a goal to define a new mineral resource that could potentially be reviewed for open pit mining. The drill program to date has been successful in intersecting the targeted high-grade gold veins and allowed for the recognition of two new mineralized zones, the "QFP "and "I "zones.

Drilling focused on the known J, K, L, and M3 Veins; however, 3 new mineralized zones have been discovered which have also returned appreciable gold values. The QFP and " I " zones were discussed in NR 18-13 on April 19, 2018 which carried gold values to 19.3 g/t Au.

In addition, in this latest drilling a new mineralized horizon was discovered in Sheared Felsic Volcanics (SFV) returning gold values of 3.5 g/T Au over 2.6 metres. This discovery is the most southerly gold zone encountered on the property to date. Its extent is unknown as the area is covered in overburden where previously anomalous gold values have been returned from soil sampling.

To date over 21 gold bearing veins and mineralized zones have been drill tested at Hammerdown of which only ten of these veins were partially mined by the previous operators. Numerous other gold intersections have been encountered with assays still pending. Drilling as been halted until all assays are received and interpreted into relevant vein sets.

Samples are delivered in sealed plastic bags to Eastern Analytical Labs in Springdale, Newfoundland by Maritime field crews where they are dried, crushed, and pulped. Samples are crushed to approximately 80% passing a minus 10 mesh and split using a riffle splitter to approximately 250 grams. A ring mill is used to pulverize the sample split to 95% passing minus 150 mesh. Sample rejects are securely stored at the EAL site for future reference.

A 30-gram representative sample is selected for analysis from the 250 grams after which EAL applies a fire assay fusion followed by acid digestion and analyses by atomic absorption for gold analyses. Other metals were analyzed by applying an acid digestion and 34 element ICP analysis finish. EAL runs a comprehensive QA/QC program of standards, duplicates and blanks within each sample stream.

Data Room Access

Maritimes had requested access to information regarding Anaconda Mining Inc. in connection with Anaconda's unsolicited offer for all of the outstanding shares of Maritime on the basis of 0.39 Anaconda shares for each Maritime share (the "Bid"). Maritime has now been granted access to Anaconda's data. We expect to commence our review of the offered material as soon as possible.

Shareholders are cautioned that the Board of Directors has not changed is recommendation in respect of the Bid. The Board recommends that shareholders do not accept the Bid, and take no action in respect of the Bid. The reasons for the Board's recommendation are set out in Maritime's Director's Circular dated April 30, 2018 available under Maritime's profile on SEDAR at www.sedar.com.

About Maritime Resources Corp:

Maritime Resources holds 100% of the Green Bay Property, located near Springdale, Newfoundland and Labrador. The property hosts the past producing Hammerdown gold mine and the Orion gold deposit separated by a 1.5 km distance that sits within an overall strike length of 4000 metres.

Maritime announced a Prefeasibility Study (March 2nd, 2017) that evaluated the Measured & Indicated NI43-101 mineral resource estimate for the past producing Hammerdown gold deposit. The study was completed by WSP Canada Inc. ("WSP"), an independent third party engineering firm, with the mandate to evaluate the potential of bringing the past producing gold mine back into commercial production.
