Supernova Metals Receives Approval for Clanton Hills and Begins Exploration Program

SUPERNOVA has contracted APEX Geoscience Ltd. to manage the exploration program at Clanton Hills. Compilation of all historic data is currently underway, including the re-inversion of historic CSAMT surveys completed on the property. It is hoped that re-processing of the historic data with modern inversion codes will provide better definition of the orientation of structures on the property for drill hole planning.

The exploration program will also include the completion of magnetic, VLF and gravity ground geophysical surveys in the coming weeks to aid in the delineation of drill targets. SUPERNOVA is currently anticipating to begin a drill program on the property in October 2020, subject to drill availability and the receipt of all necessary permits.

"Clanton Hills is a high-quality silver prospect that is drill ready," said Sean McGrath, CEO of Supernova Metals Corp. "We are currently going through the historic data, and our goal is to bring a modern exploration approach to the Clanton Hills project and identify drill targets which will be tested in the very near future."

About Clanton Hills

The Clanton Hills property consists of 32 mineral claims located in Yuma County approximately 112 km west of Phoenix, Arizona. The property sits in the Nottbusch Valley on the eastern edge of the Clanton Hills. The majority of the property is low lying and covered by alluvium with a central outcrop measuring approximately 25 meters by 90 meters in size, consisting of silicified breccias in contact with calcareous sediments. The knob is completely surrounded by a pediment surface, where the gravel cover is estimated to be about 3 to 5 metres thick.

Historic mapping and sampling of the outcrop area has resulted in the identification of both high-grade silver values, up to 217 g/t silver from grab samples related to discrete vein/shear structures in the outcrop, as well as lower grade silver mineralization in the wall rocks over substantial widths. This is demonstrated by several historic chip channel samples taken in several places across the outcrop which have returned significant thicknesses of continuous mineralization, highlighted by one channel which returned 35 g/t silver over 15 metres in calcareous sediments.

The mineralization at Clanton Hills in many ways resembles a low-sulfidation, epithermal mineral occurrence typical of the Cordillera, however, it is somewhat unusual in that silver values are present over considerable widths in the wall rocks of mineralized structures. This presents a drill target with the potential to host large volumes of lower-grade silver mineralization in the walls of the structures, in addition to the conventional higher-grade mineralization over the narrower widths in the veins that are typical of the district.

Supernova believes that the Clanton Hills property represents a unique opportunity for a near surface primary silver discovery with the potential to host a bulk tonnage silver resource that could potentially be amenable to open pit extraction.

Cautionary Statements regarding Forward-Looking Information:

This news release includes certain statements that constitute "forward-looking information or statements" within the meaning of applicable securities law, including without limitation, conducting exploration work on its projects, other statements relating to the technical, financial and business prospects of the Company and its properties, and other matters.

Forward-looking statements address future events and conditions and are necessarily based upon a number of estimates and assumptions. These statements relate to analyses and other information that are based on forecasts of future results, estimates of amounts not yet determinable and assumptions of management. Any statements that express or involve discussions with respect to predictions, expectations, beliefs, plans, projections, objectives, assumptions or future events or performance (often, but not always, using words or phrases such as "expects" or "does not expect", "is expected", "anticipates" or "does not anticipate", "plans", "estimates" or "intends", or stating that certain actions, events or results "may", "could", "would", "might" or "will" be taken, occur or be achieved), and variations of such words, and similar expressions are not statements of historical fact and may be forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statement are necessarily based upon a number of factors that, if untrue, could cause the actual results, performances or achievements of SUPERNOVA to be materially different from future results, performances or achievements express or implied by such statements. Such statements and information are based on numerous assumptions regarding present and future business strategies and the environment in which SUPERNOVA will operate in the future, including the price of metals, anticipated costs and the ability to achieve goals, that general business and economic conditions will not change in a material adverse manner, that financing will be available if and when needed and on reasonable terms, and that third party contractors, equipment and supplies and governmental and other approvals required to conduct SUPERNOVA's planned exploration activities will be available on reasonable terms and in a timely manner. While such estimates and assumptions are considered reasonable by the management of SUPERNOVA, they are inherently subject to significant business, economic, competitive and regulatory uncertainties and risks.

Forward-looking statements are subject to a variety of risks and uncertainties, which could cause actual events, level of activity, performance or results to differ materially from those reflected in the forward-looking statements, including, without limitation: (i) risks related to gold and other commodity price fluctuations; (ii) risks and uncertainties relating to the interpretation of exploration results; (iii) risks related to the inherent uncertainty of exploration and cost estimates and the potential for unexpected costs and expenses; (iv) that resource exploration and development is a speculative business; (v) that the Company may lose or abandon its property interests or may fail to receive necessary licences and permits; (vi) that environmental laws and regulations may become more onerous; (vii) that SUPERNOVA may not be able to raise additional funds when necessary; (viii) the possibility that future exploration, development or mining results will not be consistent with SUPERNOVA's expectations; (ix) exploration and development risks, including risks related to accidents, equipment breakdowns, labour disputes or other unanticipated difficulties with or interruptions in exploration and development; (x) competition; (xi) the potential for delays in exploration or development activities or the completion of geologic reports or studies; (xii) the uncertainty of profitability based upon SUPERNOVA's history of losses; (xiii) risks related to environmental regulation and liability; (xiv) risks associated with failure to maintain community acceptance, agreements and permissions (generally referred to as "social licence"); (xv) risks relating to obtaining and maintaining all necessary government permits, approvals and authorizations relating to the continued exploration and development of the SUPERNOVA's projects; (xvi) risks related to the outcome of legal actions; (xvii) political and regulatory risks associated with mining and exploration; (xix) risks related to current global financial conditions; and (xx) other risks and uncertainties related to SUPERNOVA's prospects, properties and business strategy.
