VANCOUVER, Sept. 07, 2022 - Brixton Metals Corp. (TSX-V: BBB, OTCQB: BBBXF) (the "Company" or "Brixton") is pleased to announce that its Earn-In partner Pacific Bay Minerals Ltd. (TSXV: "PBM" or "Pacific Bay") has commenced drilling at the Company's Atlin Goldfields Project ("the Property") near the town of Atlin in northern British Columbia.

The initial four drill holes proposed for the fall 2022 diamond drill program are aimed at confirming historical results and expanding upon the Yellowjacket mineralization. The Yellowjacket Zone consists of orogenic gold mineralization confined along the distinctive Pine Creek Fault system and is located immediately below significant placer gold production.

About the Atlin Goldfields Project

The Atlin Goldfields region has been a source of active placer production for the last 125 years, with gold production continuing to this day. The 566 km2 land package underlies the majority of the Atlin placer gold producing creeks including Spruce Creek, which is the source of Canada's largest gold nugget, weighing 85 ounces. The Atlin Goldfields Project is an orogenic and an intrusion-related gold property with several promising targets that have been outlined by geology, soil and rock sampling, geophysics and diamond drilling. Previous exploration has focused on gold hosted within the mafic and ultramafic rocks of the Cache Creek Complex, including drilling at the Yellowjacket Target which intersected 95.1 g/t Au over 32.84m. Approximately 1,000 ounces of gold were produced from the Yellowjacket Mine from 2007-2010, including a 2,880 tonne bulk sample that recovered 599 ounces of gold grading 6.5 g/t Au. Recent studies indicate that the origin of the Atlin placer gold is not limited to the ultramafic rocks but also includes veins hosted within sedimentary rocks and within the Surprise Lake Batholith. The Yellowjacket site has a BC Ministry of Mines Small Mine Permit (75,000 tonnes per year) in place, currently under care and maintenance.
