American Creek Resources's JV Partner Tudor Gold Drills 13.89 g/t AuEQ over 6.30 m

The first four drill-holes reported in this release specifically targeted the Supercell-One Zone (SC-1) which was identified earlier this year as representing a significant potential economic target within and expanding beyond the CS-600 Domain (see press releases dated February 2 and May 10). The results from the recent drilling strongly confirm this new discovery, characterizing a high-grade gold system that falls within an area that currently measures up to 800 m in length by 400 m in depth, with three sub-parallel structures that remain open in all directions and to depth.

SC-1 Drilling Highlights (2024):

Hole GS-24-181 intersected 3 separate high-grade intervals of the Supercell System

• SC-1A; 9.02 g/t AuEQ over 2.00 m (8.97 g/t Au, 3.73 g/t Ag, 0.01% Cu); and

• SC-1B; 11.05 g/t AuEQ over 3.00 m (8.28 g/t Au, 126.50 g/t Ag, 1.21% Cu); and

Previous 2022 and 2023 drill results from Supercell-One that returned high-grade gold within SC-1C:

GS-23-176-W1:

• SC-1C; 15.64 g/t AuEQ over 15.00 m (14.89 g/t Au, 4.72 g/t Ag, 0.60% Cu)

GS-22-134:

• SC-1C; 9.96 g/t AuEQ over 25.50 m (9.66 g/t Au, 1.23 g/t Ag, 0.24% Cu); including 20.86 g/t AuEQ over 4.50 m (20.61 g/t Au, 1.50 g/t Ag, 0.20% Cu)

GS-23-179:

• SC-1C; 10.07 g/t AuEQ over 12.00 m (9.78 g/t Au, 1.35 g/t Ag, 0.23% Cu)

Ken Konkin, President and CEO, comments: "We are very pleased to announce the discovery of numerous sub-parallel high-grade gold composite lode systems. These quartz-breccia hydrothermal structures may be related to the original Supercell-One complex (SC-1C). We now believe that at least three limbs of similarly mineralized structures make-up the Supercell-One system, labelled SC-1A, SC-1B and SC-1C. Our first drill hole of the year, GS-24-181 intersected visible native gold in the uppermost limb (SC-1A) that appears to be sub-parallel to our original Supercell-One structure (SC-1C). This uppermost structure returned 2.00 m of 9.02 g/t AuEQ (8.97 g/t Au, 3.73 g/t Ag, 0.01% Cu). SC-1A is also sub-parallel to a second deeper breccia intercept in the same drill hole that contained 3.00 m grading 11.05 g/t AuEQ (8.28 g/t Au, 126.50 g/t Ag, 1.21% Cu), labelled as SC-1B. The third intercept of the Supercell complex within GS-24-181 contained 6.00 m grading 5.31 g/t AuEQ (5.02 g/t Au, 3.32 g/t Ag, 0.21% Cu) within SC-1C. The original discovery of the Supercell-One complex (SC-1C) was from drill hole GS-22-134, which demonstrated 17 fine grains of visible gold over 4.5 m that averaged 20.86 g/t AuEQ (20.61 g/t Au, 1.50 g/t Ag, 0.20% Cu). The significance of this discovery was not realized until 2023 when drill holes GS-23-176-W1 and GS-23-179 intersected the same structure. Based on these three intercepts, the priority of the 2024 drilling program shifted to expanding the size of the Supercell-One complex. There are numerous structural similarities between our Supercell-One system and that of the Valley of the Kings Deposit, owned and operated by Newmont Corp., at the Brucejack Mine to the immediate south of the Goldstorm Deposit.

Equally impressive, a second drill hole, GS-24-183-W1, also intersected high-grade gold and silver values in three, sub-parallel, hydrothermal, quartz-stringer stockwork limbs. SC-1B had the best grades of 13.89 g/t AuEQ over 6.30 m (4.25 g/t Au, 224.59 g/t Ag, 5.96% Cu). This was a unique intercept due to the strength of the silver and copper mineralization. This may represent a semi-massive sulphide component, or pulse, to the Supercell-One system. We have witnessed this association in the earlier years of exploration of the Goldstorm Deposit within similar structures. We are now examining historical intercepts that contain gold values of greater than 4.0 g/t gold to assess the potential that these Supercell structures may be originating from within the CS-600 Domain and extending outwards from that Domain as a late-stage event. Our latest interpretation is that the Supercell-One system is a set of sub-parallel composite-lode breccia stockworks that trend obliquely to the Goldstorm Deposit rather than simply a singular parallel breccia system that occurs adjacent to the upper contact of the CS-600 Domain, as previously thought. An enormous amount of economic potential exists for expanding the size of the known three Supercell structures, as well as the possible discovery of additional gold-silver-copper structures within the Goldstorm Deposit and peripheral to it. Among our highest priorities is the outlining of two to three million ounces of high-grade gold within the Supercell-One complex; this would be a major pivotal point for the Treaty Creek Project.

Additionally important has been the expansion, and conversion to Indicated category, of the higher AuEq grades within the Inferred category of CS-600 and DS5 Domains, which stands at 6.03 million ounces of 1.25 g/t AuEq. The step-out drilling in 2024 has been very successful in continued expansion of both of these domains, with impressive results from GS-24-184 including 147.75 m grading 1.17 g/t AuEQ (0.71 g/t Au, 17.03 g/t Ag, 0.24% Cu) from the CS-600 Domain and 227.00 m of 1.22 g/t AuEQ (1.17 g/t Au, 3.19 g/t Ag, 0.01% Cu) from the DS5 Domain. Drilling continues at a very fast pace at Treaty Creek and we look forward to providing more updates on the results as they become available."

Darren Blaney, President & CEO of American Creek Resources, states: "The Supercell-One System continues to impress not only in grade, but in scale as well. The first few holes of the 2024 drill program have dramatically expanded the SC-1 to 800m in length! In addition, two more parallel high-grades structures have been discovered adding even more potential. Konkin had predicted the potential for multiple high-grade (Supercell) systems and this year's drilling is proving him right. The prospect of the SC-1 system hosting two to three million ounces of high-grade gold is amazing as it would have a significant impact on the feasibility and profitability of the Goldstorm deposit."

Drilling Discussion

Section A

• GS-24-181: This hole was drilled to step out 150 m from previously drilled SC-1 mineralization, as well as infilling CS-600 mineralization at depth. The hole intersected visible gold within an interval of 2.00 m grading 9.02 g/t AuEQ (8.97 g/t Au, 3.73 g/t Ag, 0.01% Cu), as well as 3.00 m grading 11.05 g/t AuEQ (8.28 g/t Au, 126.50 g/t Ag, 1.21% Cu) as part of a network of subparallel brecciated SC-1 complex structures. The hole intersected a CS-600 intercept of 270.00 m grading 0.95 AuEQ (0.61 g/t Au, 2.28 g/t Ag, 0.26% Cu). The upper portions of this CS-600 intercept contained an additional SC-1 sub-structure of 6.00 m grading 5.31 g/t AuEQ (5.02 g/t Au, 3.32 g/t Ag, 0.21% Cu).

• GS-24-183-W1: This hole successfully intersected similar SC-1 structures along trend, 200-300m down dip of GS-24-181 including 6.00 m grading 6.76 g/t AuEQ (6.44 g/t Au, 26.62 g/t Ag, 0.04% Cu) and 6.30 m grading 13.89 g/t AuEQ (4.25 g/t Au, 224.59 g/t Ag, 5.96% Cu). Additionally, a third SC-1 intercept occurs slightly up-dip of the CS-600 Domain with 9.00 m grading 5.12 g/t AuEQ (5.08 g/t Au, 1.24 g/t Ag, 0.02% Cu), followed by a CS-600 intercept of 90 m grading 0.81 g/t AuEQ (0.58 g/t Au, 3.48 g/t Ag, 0.15% Cu).

Section B

• GS-24-182: This hole was drilled to increase the drilling density in the CS-600 and DS5 Domains where the current Mineral Resource Estimate is categorized as Inferred mineral resources. The hole intersected mineralization associated with the CS-600 Domain that consisted of 276.00 m grading 0.73 g/t AuEQ (0.31 g/t Au, 10.07 g/t Ag and 0.25% Cu) and DS5 Domain mineralization of 34.50 m of 1.06 g/t AuEQ (1.00 g/t Au, 3.45 g/t Ag and 0.02 % Cu).

• GS-24-184: This hole was targeted to achieve a 150 m eastward step out to the CS-600 Domain and a 200 m eastward step out on the DS-5 Domain. The upper contact of the CS-600 Domain contained an enriched portion interpreted as an additional SC-1 intercept of 6.15 m of 8.09 g/t AuEQ (5.44 g/t Au, 63.77 g/t Ag, 1.62% Cu) within a wider structure of 19.65 m grading 3.54 g/t AuEQ (1.96 g/t Au, 39.05 g/t Ag, 0.96% Cu), contributing to a complete CS-600 intercept of 147.75 m grading 1.17 g/t AuEQ (0.71 g/t Au, 17.03 g/t Ag, 0.24% Cu). An underlying DS5 Domain interval of 227.00 m of 1.22 g/t AuEQ (1.17 g/t Au, 3.19 g/t Ag, 0.01% Cu) contained an enriched portion of 12.00 m grading 4.20 g/t AuEQ (4.13 g/t Au, 3.46 g/t Ag, 0.03% Cu).
