Ascendant Resources Inc. (TSX: ASND) (OTCQX:
ASDRF; FRA: 2D9) ("Ascendant" or the "Company”) is pleased to
announce results from an additional 54 diamond drill holes (10,410
metres) from its 2018 exploration and definition drilling program
at its El Mochito mine in Honduras. The drilling was split between
step-out (64%) and in-fill (36%) drill holes and targeted the
following eight areas located mainly in the eastern portion of the
mine; Port Royal Manto, Santa Barbara, Santa Elena, Porvenir,
Palmar Dyke, Nueva Este, Victoria and San Juan (See Figure 1 and
Tables 1 & 2 below). These results continue to support the
Company’s goal of adding additional Mineral Resources by expanding
higher-grade deposits at El Mochito.
Key highlights (true/apparent widths1)
include:
Step-out Drilling
- DDH 11008 – 2.2m at 31.0% ZnEq1, 16.8% Zn,
12.2% Pb and 257 g/t Ag (Santa Elena)
- DDH 11026 – 5.4m at 9.05 ZnEq, 8.5% Zn, 0.3%
Pb and 16 g/t Ag (Porvenir)
- DDH 11049 – 2.9m at 16.5% ZnEq, 11.3% Zn, 5.1%
Pb and 61.1 g/t Ag (Porvenir)
- DDH 10973 – 2.6m at 14.3% ZnEq, 13.8% Zn, 0.3%
Pb and 13.9 g/t Ag (Victoria)
Infill Drilling
- DDH 11031 – 6.0m at 12.4% ZnEq, 6.2% Zn, 6.0%
Pb and 70.5 g/t Ag (Santa Barbara)
- DDH 11065 – 12.6m at 12.2% ZnEq, 5.9% Zn, 5.1%
Pb and 735.2 g/t Ag (Palmar Dyke)
- DDH 11053 – 18.7m at 15.9% ZnEq, 9.2% Zn, 4.4%
Pb and 196.2 g/t Ag (Nueva Este)
- DDH 11058 – 19.5m at 10.4% ZnEq, 3.9% Zn, 3.3%
Pb and 237.4 g/t Ag (Nueva Este)
Infill drilling at the Nueva Este orebody
continues to deliver high-grade results over substantial adjusted
widths, with drilling to date indicating the deposit continues to
the southeast. The Santa Elena orebody forms part of the El Mochito
production plan in 2019 and beyond with step-out drilling
continuing to also indicate an eastern extension of the deposit.
The Santa Barbara and Porvenir orebodies form part of the current
Inferred Mineral Resource Estimate, and this drilling further adds
in their delineation into Measured and Indicated categories.
Results for the drilling in the Palmar Dyke area continues to
demonstrate the high-grade nature of these deposits. The Palmar
Dyke, Nueva Este and Santa Elena zones all returned significant
silver assays, indicating the stronger silver mineralization of
these deposits as they extend further past the current mining
infrastructure. All deposits remain open along strike and at
depth.
1 Please refer to tables for true/apparent
widths which are estimated from actual drilled lengths.
Chris Buncic, President and CEO of Ascendant,
commented: “We are extremely pleased with these results as they
further support the Company’s view that there is strong potential
for substantial Mineral Resource growth along strike of the known
resources within the eastern portion of the mine. This reinforces
the Company’s strategic view regarding the expansion and
optimization plans laid out in the recently released Preliminary
Economic Assessment, which envisions the installation of a
subvertical shaft aimed at opening up the eastern portion of the
mine.
He continued, “The Company is now well advanced
on its 2018 exploration program at El Mochito having so far drilled
26,679 metres, of which 63% is step-out and 27% in-fill. Results
continue to deliver high-grade intercepts, well above the current
Mineral Resource grade, supporting the Company’s goal of upgrading
Mineral Resources and subsequently further extending the mine life
of El Mochito. Over its 70 year history, El Mochito has
consistently demonstrated a high level of Mineral Resource
conversion, making management confident it will be able to deliver
further meaningful growth in the future.”

Quality Assurance and Quality Control
Analytical work was carried out by Bureau
Veritas Commodities Canada Ltd. (ACME), Vancouver, Canada.
Drill core samples were prepared in Bureau Veritas’s laboratory in
Guatemala City, Guatemala. Pulp samples were then sent to their
analytical Laboratory in Vancouver, Canada. All samples were
analyzed for zinc, Lead, copper, iron and silver values determined
by method code AR402 atomic absorption spectrometry, and any over
limit values were determined using method code FA410. Bureau
Veritas has routine quality control procedures which ensure that
every batch of 40 prepared samples includes three sample repeats,
two commercial standards and blanks. Bureau Veritas is independent
from Ascendant. Ascendant used standard QA/QC procedures, when
inserting blanks, for the drilling program.
Qualified Persons
The scientific and technical information in this
press release has been reviewed and approved by Patrick E. Toth,
P.Geo., Director Exploration to Ascendant and a Qualified Person as

About Ascendant Resources
Inc.
Ascendant is a Toronto-based mining company
focused on its flagship 100%-owned producing El Mochito zinc, lead
and silver mine in west-central Honduras, which has been in
production since 1948. After acquiring the mine in December 2016,
Ascendant spent 2017 implementing a rigorous and successful
optimization program restoring the historic potential of El Mochito
delivering record levels of production with profitability restored.
The Company now remains focused on cost reduction and further
operational improvements to drive robust profitability in 2018 and
beyond. Expanding and upgrading El Mochito’s significant Mineral
Resources through exploration work for near-mine growth is an
ongoing focus for the Company. With a significant land package of
11,000 hectares in Honduras and an abundance of historical data,
there are several regional targets providing longer term
exploration upside which could lead to further resource growth.
Ascendant also holds an interest in the
high-grade polymetallic Lagoa Salgada VMS Project located in the
prolific Iberian Pyrite Belt in Portugal. The Company is engaged in
exploration of the Project with the goal of expanding already
substantial defined Mineral Resources and testing additional known
targets. The Company’s acquisition of its interest in the Lagoa
Salgada Project offers a low-cost entry point to a potentially
significant exploration and development opportunity. The Company
holds an additional option to increase their interest in the
Project upon completion of certain milestones.
Ascendant Resources is engaged in the ongoing
evaluation of producing and development stage mineral resource
opportunities, on an ongoing basis. The Company's common shares are
principally listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange under the symbol
"ASND". For more information on Ascendant Resources, please visit
our website at www.ascendantresources.com.
Neither the Toronto Stock Exchange nor its
Regulation Services Provider (as that term is defined in the
policies of the TSX) accepts responsibility for the adequacy or
accuracy of this release. For further information please

Cautionary Notes to US
Investors
The information concerning the Company’s mineral
properties has been prepared in accordance with National Instrument
43-101 (“NI-43-101”) adopted by the Canadian Securities
Administrators. In accordance with NI-43-101, the terms “mineral
reserves”, “proven mineral reserve”, “probable mineral reserve”,
“mineral resource”, “measured mineral resource”, “indicated mineral
resource” and “inferred mineral resource” are defined in the
Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum (the “CIM”)
Definition Standards for Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves
adopted by the CIM Council on May 10, 2014. While the terms
“mineral resource”, “measured mineral resource”, “indicated mineral
resource” and “inferred mineral resource” are recognized and
required by NI 43-101, the U.S. Securities Exchange Commission
(“SEC”) does not recognize them. The reader is cautioned that,
except for that portion of mineral resources classified as mineral
reserves, mineral resources do not have demonstrated economic
value. Inferred mineral resources have a high degree of uncertainty
as to their existence and as to whether they can be economically or
legally mined. It cannot be assumed that all or any part of any
inferred mineral resource will ever be upgraded to a higher
category. Therefore, the reader is cautioned not to assume that all
or any part of an inferred mineral resource exists, that it can be
economically or legally mined, or that it will ever be upgraded to
a higher category. Likewise, you are cautioned not to assume that
all or any part of a measured or indicated mineral resource will
ever be upgraded into mineral reserves.
Readers should be aware that the Company’s
financial statements (and information derived therefrom) have been
prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting
Standards (“IFRS”) as issued by the International Accounting
Standards Board and are subject to Canadian auditing and auditor
independence standards. IFRS differs in some respects from United
States generally accepted accounting principles and thus the
Company’s financial statements (and information derived therefrom)
may not be comparable to those of United States companies.
Forward Looking
Information
This news release contains "forward-looking statements" and
"forward-looking information" (collectively, "forward-looking
information") within the meaning of applicable Canadian securities
legislation. All information contained in this news release, other
than statements of current and historical fact, is forward-looking
information. Often, but not always, forward-looking information can
be identified by the use of words such as "plans", "expects",
"budget", "guidance", "scheduled", "estimates", "forecasts",
"strategy", "target", "intends", "objective", "goal",
"understands", "anticipates" and "believes" (and variations of
these or similar words) and statements that certain actions, events
or results "may", "could", "would", "should", "might" "occur" or
"be achieved" or "will be taken" (and variations of these or
similar expressions). Forward-looking information is also
identifiable in statements of currently occurring matters which may
continue in the future, such as "providing the Company with", "is
currently", "allows/allowing for", "will advance" or "continues to"
or other statements that may be stated in the present tense with
future implications. All of the forward-looking information in this
news release is qualified by this cautionary note.
Forward-looking information in this news release
includes, but is not limited to, statements regarding the
opportunity for reserves and resources conversion and growth
through exploration, the increase in head grade and value per tonne
mined and the exploration activities in 2019. Forward-looking
information is not, and cannot be, a guarantee of future results or
events. Forward-looking information is based on, among other
things, opinions, assumptions, estimates and analyses that, while
considered reasonable by Ascendant at the date the forward-looking
information is provided, inherently are subject to significant
risks, uncertainties, contingencies and other factors that may
cause actual results and events to be materially different from
those expressed or implied by the forward-looking information. The
material factors or assumptions that Ascendant identified and were
applied by Ascendant in drawing conclusions or making forecasts or
projections set out in the forward-looking information include, but
are not limited to, the ability to increase the feed and the
ability to expand resources and grades at the Mine, the ability to
continue with exploration activities in 2019 and other events that
may affect Ascendant's ability to develop its project; and no
significant and continuing adverse changes in general economic
conditions or conditions in the financial markets.
The risks, uncertainties, contingencies and
other factors that may cause actual results to differ materially
from those expressed or implied by the forward-looking information
may include, but are not limited to, risks generally associated
with the mining industry, such as economic factors (including
future commodity prices, currency fluctuations, energy prices and
general cost escalation), uncertainties related to the development
and operation of Ascendant's projects, the continuance of
exploration activities in 2019, dependence on key personnel and
employee and union relations, risks related to political or social
unrest or change, rights and title claims, operational risks and
hazards, including unanticipated environmental, industrial and
geological events and developments and the inability to insure
against all risks, failure of plant, equipment, processes,
transportation and other infrastructure to operate as anticipated,
compliance with government and environmental regulations, including
permitting requirements and anti-bribery legislation, volatile
financial markets that may affect Ascendant's ability to obtain
additional financing on acceptable terms, the failure to obtain
required approvals or clearances from government authorities on a
timely basis, uncertainties related to the geology, continuity,
grade and estimates of mineral reserves and resources, and the
potential for variations in grade and recovery rates, uncertain
costs of reclamation activities, tax refunds, hedging transactions,
as well as the risks discussed in Ascendant's most recent Annual
Information Form on file with the Canadian provincial securities
regulatory authorities and available at www.sedar.com.
Should one or more risk, uncertainty,
contingency, or other factor materialize, or should any factor or
assumption prove incorrect, actual results could vary materially
from those expressed or implied in the forward-looking information.
Accordingly, the reader should not place undue reliance on
forward-looking information. Ascendant does not assume any
obligation to update or revise any forward-looking information
after the date of this news release or to explain any material
difference between subsequent actual events and any forward-looking
information, except as required by applicable law.
