PRB Probe Gold Inc

Probe Metals Inc. (TSX-V: PRB) (OTCQB: PROBF) (“Probe” or the “Company”) is pleased to provide the fourth set of results from the 2022 drill program on its 100%-owned Val-d’Or East Monique property (the “Property”) located near Val-d’Or, Quebec. Results from twenty-two (22) new holes demonstrate continued strike and depth expansion with significant gold intercepts along the Monique gold zones. The 2022 drill program aimed to convert, expand, and discover new gold resources within and surrounding the conceptual pits from the 2021 PEA report (see figure 1). Results from 176 holes drilled since the beginning of 2022 at Monique are still pending and will be released as they are received. Selected highlights from the current results are presented below. The Company is also pleased to provide an update on the continuing engineering and development activities on the Property.

David Palmer, President and CEO of Probe, states: “The drilling results on Monique have steadily showed an improvement in all aspects of the deposit, and particularly with the following: the expansion drilling results show that this project has tremendous upside for growth based on the remarkably consistent assay results; the infill drilling results show we are converting more of our resource into higher confidence ounces, which acts to de-risk the resource and the project; and as we step out and expand the previous resource boundaries we are growing our pits and potentially reducing the overall number of pits, which will make a much more efficient, and attractive mining project.  Taken individually, the drill results have been great, taken together they have been exceptional and have been responsible for building size, improving confidence, de-risking and increasing value.  To begin to quantify this value we are initiating the next resource update for the project in October and hope to have new numbers for Monique before the end of the year, and for Pascalis and Courvan in the first quarter of 2023.  These will provide a very clear demonstration of the benefits of our drilling programs and will form the basis for our pre-feasibility study, which we expect in the second half of 2023.  These are exciting times for Val-d’Or East and the project has done nothing but improve with the work we have undertaken and we expect to see continued improvement as we advance the project further.”

Infill drilling – Eleven (11) holes released today are from the resource conversion drilling program designed to test the continuity of A, J, G, I and Q zones inside the conceptual pits between surface to approximately 300 metres depth and one hole to test the G zone around 425 metres depth. All holes returned intercepts with gold grades above the 0.42 g/t Au cut-off grade used in the PEA report and confirmed the current block model with respect to grades and thicknesses. The 2022 infill drill program over the Monique gold zones has been successful, to date, in achieving an approximate 30 metres drill spacing over the mineralization in the PEA’s conceptual pits and down to 500 metres within the proposed underground resource areas.

Expansion drilling - Eleven (11) holes are from the expansion drilling program designed to test the extension of the G, I, J, K, S and Q zones laterally and at depth. Six (6) of these expansion drilling holes intersected gold structures with grade times thickness above 15.0 g/t Au-metre.

Based on the drilling completed along the Monique Gold Trend since the PEA, the results demonstrate a strong continuity of the sub-parallel to parallel gold zones over a volume of more than 2 kilometres long by 1 kilometre wide and locally up to 600 metres depth. The Monique Gold Trend zones are all open along strike and at depth.

In addition to drilling activities, Probe is advancing rock mechanics, ground geotechnical, metallurgical and baseline studies on the project, and has initiated community and social engagement activities. Beginning this month, a first phase of geotechnical test holes aimed to characterize the overburden over the PEA’s conceptual pits and under proposed infrastructure will commence. This phase will be completed this fall.

Selected drill results from holes MO-22-352 to 373 at the Monique Area drilling program are, as follows:

About the Monique Property:The Monique property is located 25 km east of Val-d’Or, in Quebec, and consists of 21 claims and one mining lease covering a total area of 5.5 square kilometres in Louvicourt township. The property hosts a current measured and indicated mineral resource of 13,619,000 tonnes at a grade of 1.54 g/t for 672,800 ounces of gold and inferred mineral resource of 11,733,000 tonnes at a grade of 1.78 g/t for 671,400 ounces of gold (source: Probe Metals NI 43-101 Technical Report Val-d’Or East Project – June 2021). The Property is part of the Company’s Val-d’Or East Project, and the consolidated land package stands at 436 square kilometres. Val-d’Or East is situated in a politically stable and low-cost mining environment that hosts numerous active producers and mills.

GeologyGold mineralization on the Monique property is mainly associated with three deformation zones that cross the property with an orientation of 280° and a 75°- 80° dip to the north. Gold mineralization is defined by a network of quartz/carbonate/albite/±tourmaline veins and veinlets with disseminated pyrite in the altered wall rocks. A total of 16 parallel gold zones have been discovered on the property, to-date. Some mineralized zones have been defined from surface to a depth of 600 metres and vary in width from 1 metre to up to 100 metres. Mineralized structures extend laterally up to 1,500 metres.

Past ProductionThe Monique open pit mine began commercial production in 2013 and ceased production at the end of January 2015. A total of 0.58 Mt of mineralized material was extracted at a grade of 2.53 g/t Au, from the surface to 100 metres depth for a total of 45,694 ounces of gold.

Qualified Person: The scientific and technical content of this press release has been reviewed, prepared, and approved by Mr. Marco Gagnon, P.Geo, who is a "Qualified Person" within the meaning of NI 43-101, and Executive Vice-President and a director of Probe.

Quality Control:During the last drilling program, assay samples were taken from the NQ core by sawing the drill core in half, with one-half sent to a certified commercial laboratory and the other half retained for future reference. A strict QA/QC program was applied to all samples, which includes insertion of mineralized standards and blank samples for each batch of 20 samples. The gold analyses were completed by fire-assays with an atomic absorption finish on 50 grams of materials. Repeats were carried out by fire-assay followed by gravimetric testing on each sample containing 3.0 g/t gold or more. Total gold analyses (Metallic Sieve) were carried out on the samples which presented a great variation of their gold contents or the presence of visible gold.
