ALX Resources Corp. Announces Commencement of Drilling at the Firebird Nickel Project, Northern Saskatchewan

Vancouver, June 14, 2021 - ALX Resources Corp. (TSXV: AL) (FSE: 6LLN) (OTC: ALXEF) ("ALX" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that a diamond drilling program has commenced at its Firebird Nickel Project ("Firebird") located near the town of Stony Rapids in northern Saskatchewan. The drilling program, totaling approximately 1,500 metres, is fully-funded by ALX's exploration partner Rio Tinto Exploration Canada Inc. ("Rio Tinto") and is expected to be completed in mid-July 2021 with ALX as operator.

About the Firebird 2021 Exploration Program

The Firebird 2021 exploration program began in the first week of June with a ground-truthing program of geophysical anomalies that were detected in the airborne VTEM™ Max survey completed in October 2020 (see ALX news release dated November 9, 2020, "ALX Resources Corp. and Rio Tinto Locate Airborne EM Anomalies at the Firebird Nickel Project").

The 2020 airborne survey successfully delineated several new anomalous zones of strong conductivity in the northern part of Firebird where no modern airborne survey had ever been flown and high-grade nickel is present on surface. For example, in July 2020 ALX sampled up to 2.43% nickel in surface grab sampling in the Wiley Lake target area and up to 1.31% nickel in outcrop drilling using a portable backpack drill (see ALX news release dated July 27, 2020, "ALX Resources Corp. Samples up to 2.43% Nickel and 8.34 Grams/Tonne Gold in the Northern Athabasca Region, Saskatchewan"). ALX and Rio Tinto personnel subsequently identified high-priority anomalies from the VTEM™ survey results based on their strong conductivity and coincident high magnetic responses, which may suggest the presence of sulphides. Additional processing and modelling of the final survey data led to target selection for the 2021 drilling program - up to eight holes are planned.

Firebird is currently the subject of an option agreement whereby Rio Tinto Exploration Canada Inc. ("Rio Tinto") can earn up to an 80% interest in Firebird by incurring exploration expenditures of $12.0 million over a six-year period and by making a total of $125,000 in cash payments to the Company (see ALX news release dated August 24, 2020, "ALX Resources Corp. Announces Earn-In for the Falcon Nickel Project").

NationaI Instrument 43-101 Disclosure

The technical information in this news release has been reviewed and approved by Sierd Eriks, P.Geo., President and Chief Geologist of ALX, who is a Qualified Person in accordance with the Canadian regulatory requirements set out in National Instrument 43-101.

Drill core and grab samples described in this news release were shipped to SRC Geoanalytical Laboratories in Saskatoon, Sask. Base metals were analyzed using a four-acid digestion with inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS). Samples that returned over 10,000 parts per million nickel were analyzed with HCl/HNO3 (hydrogen chloride/nitric acid) digestion, followed by base metal weight percentage assay by inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectroscopy (ICP-OES). Gold, platinum and palladium were analyzed by fire assay techniques. Readers are cautioned that grab samples are selective by nature and may not represent the true mineralization on the property.
