Braveheart Commences 2019 Exploration Program at Bull River Property

16.07.2019  |  Newsfile

Calgary, July 16, 2019 - Braveheart Resources Inc. (TSXV: BHT) ("Braveheart" or, the "Company") hereby announces that it has begun its 2019 exploration program at the Bull River Mine property. The program is fully funded.

The initial focus of the program is on the former past producing Empire-Strathcona property which is located on the Company's 100% owned Bull River land package. The claims are underlain by Precambrian argillite and argillaceous quartzite of the Aldridge formation. The quartz siderite vein system has been exposed by two open cuts and two adits. Mineralization is primarily copper and silver. Mine geologists recently collected five grab samples from an upper adit, upper adit dump and an exposed rock cut. Assay results from these grab samples ranged from 0.22% to 7.10% copper. . Detailed assay results from all grab samples can be reviewed in Table 1 below. It should be noted that grab samples are selected samples and are not necessarily representative of the mineralization hosted on the property.

The Empire Strathcona property has been discussed in the Annual Reports of the Minister of Mines, British Columbia for 1898, 1929, 1930 and 1937. In 1937 two grab samples were selected by the British Columbia Department of Mines engineer from the upper adit dump. The samples yielded grades of 8.9% and 4.2% copper from visible chalcopyrite and pyrrhotite. Government records indicate that in the 1930's mineralized material was transported from the lower adit of the mine, via a 580 m tram-line to the valley bottom and then to a smelter. There are no historical estimates for the tonnage and grade of mineralized material that was mined at the property. As of mid-June 2019, a diamond drill has been mobilized to the site in proximity to the lower adit of the mine. The drill is targeting potential mineralization down dip and along strike of previous underground workings at the Empire Strathcona.

Mine geologists also collected two grab samples from a caved stope at the Company's Don prospect. These samples returned assays of 19.50% and 16.27% copper from a vein averaging 0.9 to 1.1 m in width. The Don was acquired as part of the large contiguous land package at the Bull River property but is not currently included in the Multi Year Area Based ("MYAB") permit that the Company recently received from BC Energy Mines and Petroleum Resources for exploration drilling at the Bull River mine; thus, drilling cannot commence until a new MYAB permit is approved or the current MYAB permit is amended. There are no historical estimates for the tonnage and grade of mineralized material mined at the property; however, based on these samples further exploration work is justified. The Company is pleased to report that as of July 10, 2019 589 hectares of mineral claims, immediately adjacent to the Don prospect, and contiguous to the current 9,785 hectare land package have been added to the Bull River land holdings.

Our 2019 exploration programs are fully funded and we have multiple targets which we plan to evaluate in a systematic approach."
