Vancouver, March 2, 2020 - Canadian Palladium Resources Inc. (CSE: BULL) (OTCQB: DCNNF) (FSE: DCR1) (formerly 21C Metals Inc.) (the "Company") is pleased to announce the rush sample results from the first diamond drill hole on its East Bull Palladium Property, 90 kilometres west of Sudbury, Ontario.

Hole EB-20-01 was designed to assess the areas of higher - grade Palladium. These higher - grade Palladium zones will be assessed to determine if they are structural controlled and can be traced downdip and along strike within the inferred resource (See Press Release July 3,2019).

The initial three holes of the 2020 diamond drill program have been established over a strike length of ~40 metres with results of EB-20-02 and 03 expected in the next 3 weeks. The diamond drill holes tested 50 to 75 metres below surface.

The results of the first hole, EB-20-01 include:

Individual Intercepts of EB-20-10

Individual demarked samples were sawn in half, bagged, sealed and transported by courier to Activation Laboratories in Ancaster Ontario. Duplicates and standards were introduced to the sample stream as illustrated. Each sample was analysed using the Activation Laboratories codes RX1, 1C-OES 50 g (Au, Pt, Pd); 1F2 Total Digestion ICP.

Intercept widths are core width that is ~90% true width using the historic drill intercepts.

Canadian Palladium intends to analyse significant Palladium zones for rhodium.

The present diamond drill program is moving along smoothly and is working toward expanding the previously reported inferred Palladium resource.

Sections of the core from EB-20-01 will be exhibited at the Prospectors and Developers Association of Canada Convention March 1 to 4, 2020 at Pavey Ark's booth 2728.
