Metallurgical Testing Begins At Happy Cat Gold Property

VANCOUVER - Black Mammoth Metals Corporation has contracted Hazen Research, Inc. of Golden, Colorado to begin gravity separation testing of a 111kg sample of material that Hazen has received from the Company's 100% owned Happy Cat gold property in Nevada. The sample was collected and shipped in December 2020 by Adam Knight, Professional Mining Engineer who is independent of the Company. The objective of the testing at Hazen is to identify what gravity separation process may be optimal for further tests, including a larger pilot test. The testing is intended to further the Company's understanding of the gold grades and recovery rates as there may be an opportunity to conduct a bulk sampling operation at Happy Cat property. The initial gravity separation test has begun with the analysis and reporting expected to be completed by late January or February.

The 111kg sample was taken from the near surface gold anomaly at Happy Cat property referred to in the Company's news release dated November 25, 2020. The gold anomaly occurs within a 600-meter diameter circular area where past exploration included RC drilling, trenching, auger drilling and sampling. Past metallurgical work using an iCON gravity concentrator and a Deister concentrating table suggested that the near surface anomaly is amenable to gravity separation. This past testing recovered visible particulate gold along with fine gold suggesting a nugget effect.

Along with the Company's 100% owned Happy Cat Gold Property, subject to underlying royalties (transaction subject to TSX-V approval), Black Mammoth has a 100% interest, subject to underlying royalties, in the Blanco Creek gold property in central Idaho which hosts three historic underground mines along 3550 meters (11,644 feet) of strike on the north-east trending regional Blanco Shear Zone.  Exploration by two previous operators identified a geological target for the Blanco Creek property in the order of 1.7 to 2.48 million tons, grading 0.20 to 0.33 oz/ton Au (1.54 to 2.24 million tonnes, grading 6.85 to 11.31 g/tonne Au).
