American Creek Announces Postponement of Filing of 2019 Annual Financial Statements

Cardston, April 29, 2020 - American Creek Resources Ltd. (TSXV: AMK) (the "Company" or "American Creek") announces in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, the securities regulatory authorities in Canada have granted a blanket exemption allowing issuers an additional forty-five days to complete their regulatory filings that were otherwise due during the period from March 23, 2020 to June 1, 2020. Due to logistics and delays caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, the Company is relying on this blanket relief to postpone the filing of its annual financial statements and management's discussion and analysis (collectively, the "Annual Filings") for the year ended December 31, 2019.

As required by BC Instrument 51-515, and similar Instruments and Orders enacted in Alberta, Saskatchewan and Ontario, the Company discloses the following:

• The Company presently anticipates being able to complete and file the Annual Filings on or before June 12, 2020.

• Until the Company has filed and announced the required Annual Filings, members of management and other insiders are subject to a trading black-out policy that reflects the principles in section 9 of National Policy 11-207 - Failure-to-File Cease Trade Orders and Revocations in Multiple Jurisdictions.

• The Company confirms that there have been no material business developments since November 2019 when the Company filed its third quarter interim financial results, other than as announced.

About American Creek

American Creek is a Canadian junior mineral exploration company with a strong portfolio of gold and silver properties in British Columbia.

Three of those properties are located in the prolific "Golden Triangle"; the Treaty Creek and Electrum joint venture projects with Tudor Gold/Walter Storm as well as the 100% owned past producing Dunwell Mine.

A major drill program was conducted in 2019 at Treaty Creek by JV partner and operator Tudor Gold. The focus of the program was on the Goldstorm zone where drilling has produced very wide intercepts of gold including a 780 meter intercept of 0.683 g/t gold including a higher grade upper portion of 1.095 g/t over 370.5 meters.

The Treaty Creek Project is a Joint Venture with Tudor Gold owning 60% and acting as operator. American Creek and Teuton Resources each have 20% interests in the project. American Creek and Teuton are both fully carried until such time as a Production Notice is issued, at which time they are required to contribute their respective 20% share of development costs. Until such time, Tudor is required to fund all exploration and development costs while both American Creek and Teuton have "free rides".

A drill program was also recently concluded on the 100% owned Dunwell Mine property located near Stewart. Assay results are pending.

The Corporation also holds the Gold Hill, Austruck-Bonanza, Ample Goldmax, Silver Side, and Glitter King properties located in other prospective areas of the province.
