ALX Resources Corp. Receives Geochemical Results from Drilling at the Firebird Nickel Project, Northern Saskatchewan

Vancouver, November 1, 2021 - ALX Resources Corp. (TSXV: AL) (FSE: 6LLN) (OTC: ALXEF) ("ALX" or the "Company") announced today that geochemical results have been received from a diamond drilling program at its Firebird Nickel Project ("Firebird") located near the town of Stony Rapids in northern Saskatchewan. The drilling program was fully-funded by ALX's exploration partner Rio Tinto Exploration Canada Inc. ("Rio Tinto") with ALX as operator.

Firebird 2021 Exploration Program

The Firebird 2021 exploration program began during 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").

A total of 739.5 metres was completed in four helicopter-supported diamond drill holes. Ground geophysical surveys were carried out on three targets to improve the definition of the conductive anomalies detected in the 2020 airborne survey. Sulphide mineralization was intersected in three of the four completed drill holes, but no significant nickel-copper-cobalt geochemical values were encountered in the mineralized intervals.

Summary of Firebird 2021 Drill Holes

* True widths of mineralized zones are not yet known

Other highly-conductive targets from the 2020 airborne survey remain to be tested at Firebird and additional drilling is recommended. ALX will update its shareholders on future exploration plans at the Project as information from its optionee Rio Tinto becomes available.

About the Firebird Nickel Project

ALX owns 100% of Firebird, subject to 2.0% net smelter returns royalties on certain claims acquired from arm's-length vendors to the Company. ALX acquired its first claims at Firebird during a staking rush in May 2019. Additional land purchases and acquisitions by staking in 2019 and 2020 has increased the size of the Project to approximately 20,491 hectares (50,635 acres). Mobilization of equipment and personnel is achieved from the town of Stony Rapids, SK, located approximately 18 kilometres (11 miles) by air from the centre of the Project. Stony Rapids is connected to the Saskatchewan provincial road system by all-weather Highway 905 and has a fully-serviced airport to support both fixed-wing aircraft and helicopters.

Firebird is currently the subject of an option agreement whereby 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").

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 identified high-priority anomalies from the VTEM™ survey results based on their strong conductivity and coincident high magnetic responses, which suggested the presence of sulphides, and subsequently developed drill targets for the summer of 2021.

Quality Assurance/Quality Control ("QA/QC")

A QA/QC following industry best practices was incorporated into the drill core sampling and included systematic insertion of quartz blanks and certified reference materials into sample batches, as well as collection of quarter-core duplicates, at a rate of approximately 10%. All drill core samples were collected as half-split core, apart from quarter-split duplicates.

All samples were shipped by ground to ALS Global Geochemistry Analytical Lab ("ALS") in North Vancouver, BC, Canada, for multi-element analysis. ALS is an ISO-IEC 17025:2017 and ISO 9001:2015 accredited analytical laboratory that is independent of ALX and its Qualified Person. Mafic intrusive and mineralized samples were analyzed using ALS's super trace multi-element complete characterization package. This includes determination of major oxides by fused bead preparation with ICP-ES determination, C and S by combustion furnace, Au-Pd-Pt by 30-gram lead fire assay with ICP-MS determination, resistate elements by lithium borate fusion with ICP-MS determination, aqua regia digest ICP-MS determination for volatile trace elements, and 4-acid digest ICP-MS determination for base metals. Barren country rock samples were analyzed using ALS's super trace multi-element 4-acid digest with ICP-MS determination for 51 elements plus Au-Pt-Pd by 30-gram lead bead fire assay ICP-MS determination and pXRF determination for 7 resistate elements (Cr, Nb, Si, Ta, Ti, Y, Zr).

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