(Toronto, Ontario, April 25, 2022) – Galway Metals Inc. (TSX-V: GWM; OTCQB: GAYMF) (the “Company” or “Galway”) is pleased to report an updated Mineral Resource statement disclosed in accordance with NI43-101 standards, prepared by SLR Consulting (Canada) Ltd. on its Clarence Stream property located in southwest New Brunswick, Canada. The previous resource was disclosed 4½ years ago in September 2017. Since then, 106,272 metres of drilling in 337 holes were undertaken in the new SW Deposit that have contributed to the significant increases in the resource totals. Galway’s objectives over the past 4 years were to make multiple discoveries as exploration moved outward from the North and South Zones, where 100% of the prior resource was located, to demonstrate that Clarence Stream represents an important new gold district in North America. Galway is pleased to note that these objectives have been successfully met. It’s also important to note that all Zones included in the resource update are open for significant expansion. Today’s announcement simply represents a snapshot in time.

“We are very pleased to have taken a major step forward at Clarence Stream. The Indicated and Inferred open pit estimates of 886,000 ounces at 2.27 g/t Au plus 731,000 ounces at 1.93 g/t Au, respectively, is a great start. These resource grades we are reporting compare very favourably to most other pit-constrained resources in the industry. The next step will be the planning of a preliminary economic assessment. Looking forward, the focus of our drilling program is to continue to expand the existing zones that are all open, to follow-up on 3 previously-made discoveries that weren’t included in the resource and to make more discoveries to further enhance this new gold district,” said Robert Hinchcliffe, President and CEO of Galway Metals. “Galway recognizes the importance that New Brunswickers and First Nations place on natural resources and the environment, and we are committed to advancing the Clarence Stream Project in a manner that respects these values. As the project evolves, we are looking forward to engaging our neighbours and First Nations.

Notes for the Clarence Stream Resource

  1. CIM (2014) definitions were followed for Mineral Resources.
  2. Mineral Resources are reported at cut-off grades of 0.38 g/t Au and 2.00 g/t Au for open pit and underground, respectively.
  3. Mineral Resources are estimated using long-term gold price of US$1,650/oz, a long term antimony price of US$10,000/t and a US$/C$ exchange rate of 1.33.
  4. A minimum mining width of 1.5m was used.
  5. Bulk density is 2.83 t/m3 for North Zone mineralization, 2.90 t/m3 for South Zone mineralization, and 2.73 t/m3 for SW Deposit mineralization.
  6. There are no Mineral Reserves at Clarence Stream.
  7. Mineral Resources that are not Mineral Reserves do not have demonstrated economic viability.
  8. Open pit Mineral Resources are reported within conceptual open pits.
  9. Underground Mineral Resources are reported within three-dimensional shapes outlining volumes of continuous blocks which satisfy the cut-off grade and minimum width criteria.
  10. Numbers may not add up due to rounding.

“We believe that this resource can be significantly expanded and are optimistic about the potential for additional discoveries to further enhance this new gold district. Resources at Clarence Stream are contained within 8.0-km of Galway’s 65-km strike length. There are many additional strong targets identified that exhibit coincident highly anomalous glacial tills, soils, boulders and chip samples, along magnetic lows. Galway used these pathfinders to make all 6 of its discoveries to date; we do not see any reason that, given the large number other similar, and oftentimes stronger pathfinders at Clarence Stream, that other important discoveries won’t be made in the future. Besides any results coming from this exploration, upcoming catalysts would also include metallurgical and ore sorting tests,” cites Mike Sutton, Vice President, Exploration of Galway Metals.

Estrades hosts a high-grade resource that Galway quadrupled since acquisition

In addition to Clarence Stream, Galway also has 100% ownership interest in the former producing, high-grade Estrades volcanogenic massive sulphide (VMS) in the northern Abitibi of western Quebec, Canada. An NI 43-101 Technical Report on the “Mineral Resource Estimate for the Estrades Project, Northwestern Quebec, Canada” dated November 5, 2018, with an amended date of March 15, 2019, was prepared by Roscoe Postle Associates (RPA) and summarized on Table 4.

Metal prices used for equivalencies for the Clarence Stream Mineral Resource Estimate are US$1,650/oz Au and US$10,000/tonne Sb. Metal prices used for the Estrades Mineral Resource Estimate were US$1,450/oz Au, US$21.00/oz Ag, US$1.15/lb Zn, US$3.50/lb Cu and US$1.00/lb Pb. Clarence Stream’s Au and Sb are not incorporated in ZnEq; rather, Estrades resources only are in ZnEq.

Clarence Stream’s Gold Resource Increase was Driven Mostly by Discoveries at the SW Deposit

The significant increases of gold resources at Clarence Stream was driven principally by Galway’s discovery of the Adrian, George Murphy (GMZ) and Richard Zones (Figure 1). Extensive drilling has resulted in the Adrian Zone linking to the GMZ, which links to the Richard Zone, which links to the previously-known Jubilee Zone. These zones now combine for a 3.1km trend of mineralization, which remains open with multiple high-priority targets that Galway plans on following up. These 4 zones are now referred to collectively as the SW Deposit. Also contributing to the resource increase was a lowering of cut-off grades for open pit constrained and underground resources to 0.38 g/t and 2.00 g/t, respectively, from 0.42 g/t and 2.55 g/t previously. These declines in the cut-off grades were driven mostly by an increase in the gold price applied to the resource estimates to $1,650/oz from $1,350/oz. Tighter wireframes around mineralization plus several other small parameter changes also contributed to the resource increase. Figure 2 and Figure 3 provide 3D images of the South and North Zones, respectively.

The New Updated Resource Does Not Include Several Previously-Made Discoveries

The sections below are provided to demonstrate the significant upside Galway envisions at Clarence Stream. They cover both, previous discovery areas that are not included in the resource, and other targets that have yet to be drilled. The previous discoveries represent high-priority targets outside the resource areas where Galway is planning follow-up drilling in its 150,000-metre program, utilizing 6 drill rigs through 2023. Galway’s aim is to expand on these discoveries such that they become significant new deposits. These previous discoveries to be followed up on include the following:

  • Richard Zone mineralization was recently extended 340m north at the east end of Richard with previously-released hole BL-213 (Figure 4). This hole intersected 1.1 g/t Au over 8.35m, plus 0.8 g/t Au over 4.15m, plus 2.0 g/t Au over 1.15m (March 30, 2022). These gold-bearing quartz veins could be the western extension of the Adrian Zone, located 970m to the NE. If this is correct, it would parallel the George Murphy Zone located immediately to the south; the Adrian Zone has consistently been expanding in the NE direction, and could expand toward this Richard North discovery to the SW as well.
  • The Richard North veins could also line up with another previously-reported discovery located 900m to the NNE where hole CL-72 intersected 4.8 g/t Au over 3.1m at a vertical depth of 95m, and was followed up with hole CL-111, which hosted 5 separate veins, the best of which intersected 4.1 g/t Au over 10.25m at a vertical depth of 16.5m (true widths for both of these intersects are unknown) (July 26, 2021). Importantly, this NNE trend that may connect the Richard North veins to the recent discovery follows the east edge of a buried (in this area) intrusion – the same intrusion that the SW Deposit follows along its southern edge. The intersects along this NNE trend were drilled in part to test gold-in-soil anomalies that follow the NNE trending edge of the intrusion.
  • This discovery area highlighted by holes CL-72 and CL-111 is also located 680m WNW, up-dip from a 385m deep, previously-reported intersect in the Adrian Zone, and may also link to it. The discovery appears to dip gently to the east, draping the interpreted shallow east dip of the buried intrusion toward Adrian where Galway reported 70.3 g/t Au over 1.5m, including 104.2 g/t Au over 1.0m, plus 7.2 g/t Au over 1.5m in hole CL-51 (March 30, 2021). The 4.1 g/t Au over 10.25m intersect in the new discovery appears to trend right toward this deeper high-grade intersect in the Adrian Zone. The deep intersects in hole CL-51 are not included in the resource as they are located too far from the other Adrian holes. These two veins are also near the interpreted location of the Sawyer Brook Fault, which is the main conduit for gold mineralization at Clarence Stream.
  • The description above represents the potential to link these three zones: Richard to Adrian, Richard to the discovery to the NNE, and the discovery to Adrian. This effectively makes a large triangle with potential to host significant gold mineralization – all outside the current resource areas but in close proximity to them.
  • A different previously-released discovery returned 186.5 g/t Au over 0.6m from a 35 cm quartz vein that contains very fine sulphides, including arsenopyrite (June 24, 2020). Another similar vein located 13m further downhole returned 2.2 g/t Au over 0.7m. This discovery appears to be located along the same NE-SW trend as the SW Deposit, which begins 950m to the NE and extends 3.1km and remains open. The 186.5 g/t Au over 0.6m discovery is midway between the SW Deposit and a strong 4km+ long soil anomaly that hosts 11 soils that returned between 100 and 681 ppb Au, beginning 1km along strike and along the same magnetic low trend to the SW. Gold in these soils are far stronger than the gold in soils in the SW Deposit, and in the other recent discoveries discussed above. All the known zones at Clarence Stream are located along magnetic lows; they are interpreted as faults and thought to represent structural conduits for gold-bearing fluids.
  • Another previously-released discovery Galway plans on following up on is called Oak Bay. The South Zone is located 19 km to the east of Oak Bay. The zone at Oak Bay has been drill-delineated with strong consistent intersections over 110m of strike length (horizontal distance). The zone is open in every direction. The first hole, OB-01, intersected 6.0 g/t Au over 3.3m, including 9.3 g/t Au over 1.1m, starting at a vertical depth of 13.8m (October 27, 2021). Other holes include 5.2 g/t Au over 2.5m, including 11.8 g/t Au over 0.5, 3.5 g/t Au over 4.2m, including 8.6 g/t Au over 0.6m, 2.3 g/t Au over 6.65m, including 6.7 g/t Au over 0.6m, and 1.9 g/t Au over 5.5m, including 8.1 g/t Au over 0.5 – all at shallow depths.

Other previously-drilled targets outside the resource that Galway plans on following up on include the following:

  • An intersection of 0.6 g/t Au over 41.0m (CL-166), which would widen and extend the GMZ resource east
  • An intersection of 2.0 g/t Au over 14.0m (CL-164), which would widen and extend the GMZ resource east
  • An intersection of 9.4 g/t Au over 0.5m with visible gold (VG) (CL-75) (January 6, 2021) located 206m from the eastern-most intersection in the GMZ resource
  • An intersection 5.5 g/t Au over 5.65m at -392m (BL-177), which appears to be a new deep zone, or it could be the same zone as intersected 400m to the east in hole BL-130 (18.5 g/t Au over 0.65m within 1.3 g/t Au over 25.0m) at depth in the Richard Zone (March 30, 2022)

The Top 5 Exploration Targets that Haven’t Been Drilled, but Galway Plans to Target Them, Include the Following:

Besides drilling to expand the existing zones, and the new discoveries that are not part of updated resource, a number of high priority targets have yet to be drilled at Clarence Stream that exhibit better evidence for gold deposit discoveries than the evidence that existed prior to any of the discoveries Galway has made to date.

  • One target is the 4km+ of very high grade soils that are on strike approximately 2km to the SW of the SW Deposit. This 4km+ long soil anomaly, which hosts 11 soils that returned between 100 and 681 ppb Au, is located along a very strong linear magnetic low. All the known zones are located along magnetic lows, and they are thought to represent structural conduits for gold-bearing fluids.

A target is located parallel to and south of the SW Zone. This 12km+ long soil anomaly that hosts 12 soils that returned between 100 and 1030 ppb Au is located along a very strong linear magnetic low, with 7 anomalous boulders that range up to 16.3 g/t Au and 7.5 g/t Au with gabbro as host – similar to the South Zone, plus with the second highest till anomaly on the entire property (95 ppb).

  • A target within and on the contacts of a multi-phase gabbro complex that likely is the source of gabbro dykes that host mineralization at the South Zone and at Oak Bay (19 km apart) with the gabbro complex in between; soils run as high as 4980, 3210, and 3120 ppb – the 3 highest on the property, plus with the third highest till anomaly on the entire property (86 ppb) (Figure 5).
  • A target located along a very strong 9 km+ linear magnetic low, with 4 strong till anomalies, a 1 km long soil anomaly located parallel to and NW of the SW Deposit.
  • Multiple targets located north of the felsic intrusive that is related to the SW Deposit; multiple linear magnetic lows and the Sawyer Brook fault (the main accretionary structure on the property that controls most mineralization) are located there.

New Brunswick Junior Mining Assistance Program

Galway would like to acknowledge financial support from the New Brunswick Junior Mining Assistance Program, which partially funded drilling of the SW Deposit.

Clarence Stream Geology and Mineralization

Clarence Stream deposits can be characterized as intrusion-related, quartz-vein hosted gold deposits. They contain elevated levels of bismuth and arsenopyrite in multiple quartz veins, with significant antimony in the South and North Zones and tungsten in the vicinity. The Zones contain multiple zones of quartz veining with sulfides and sericite alteration. In general, mineralization at Clarence Stream consists of 10-70% quartz stockworks and veins with 1-5% fine pyrite plus pyrrhotite plus arsenopyrite in sericite altered sediments. The South and North Zones also contain stibnite. Locally there is up to 10% sphalerite and semi-massive galena veinlets. The 3.1 km trend that hosts the SW Deposit is associated with a mineralized mafic intrusive locally – similar to the South Zone. A more complete description of Clarence Stream’s geology and mineralization can be found at www.galwaymetalsinc.com.

Review by Qualified Person, Quality Control and Reports

The Mineral Resource estimates for the North and South deposits were prepared by Mr. Reno Pressacco, P.Geo, SLR Principal Geologist. The Mineral Resource estimate for the Southwest deposit was prepared under the supervision of Ms. Valerie Wilson, M.Sc., P.Geo., SLR Managing Principal Geologist. Mr. Pressacco and Ms. Wilson are Independent Qualified Persons as defined by NI 43-101 and have read and approved the scientific and technical content of this news release as it relates to the updated Mineral Resource estimates. Michael Sutton, P.Geo., Director and VP of Exploration for Galway Metals, is the Qualified Person who supervised the preparation of the scientific and technical disclosure in this news release on behalf of Galway Metals Inc. A NI 43-101 report will be completed within 45 days to support the resource estimate. All core, chip/boulder samples, and soil samples are assayed by Activation Laboratories, located at 41 Bittern Street, Ancaster, Ontario, Canada, Agat Laboratories, located at 5623 McAdam Road, Mississauga Ontario, Canada L4Z 1N9 and 35 General Aviation Road, Timmins, ON P4P 7C3, and/or Swastika Laboratories situated in Swastika, ON. All four labs have ISO/IEC 17025 accreditation. All core is under watch from the drill site to the core processing facility. All samples are assayed for gold by Fire Assay, with gravimetric finish, and other elements assayed using ICP. The Company’s QA/QC program includes the regular insertion of blanks and standards into the sample shipments, as well as instructions for duplication. Standards, blanks and duplicates are inserted at one per 20 samples. Approximately five percent (5%) of the pulps and rejects are sent for check assaying at a second lab with the results averaged and intersections updated when received. Core recovery in the mineralized zones has averaged 99%.

About the Company

Galway Metals is well capitalized with two projects in Canada: Clarence Stream, an emerging gold district in New Brunswick, and Estrades, the former producing, high-grade, gold-rich VMS polymetallic mine in Quebec. The Company began trading on January 4, 2013, after its successful spinout to existing shareholders from Galway Resources following the completion of the US$340 million sale of that company. With substantially the same management team and Board of Directors, Galway Metals is keenly intent on creating similar value as it had with Galway Resources.
