Arizona And Nevada Projects Have Significantly Advanced

VANCOUVER - Northern Lights Resources Corp. reported that it has significantly advanced the Company's two flagship properties - the Secret Pass Gold Project in Arizona and the Medicine Springs Silver Lead Zinc project in Nevada.

During 2020, Northern Lights completed a Phase 1 Exploration program at Secret Pass. The Phase 1 exploration program included: Evaluation and compilation of historic geological information into a GIS system; Completion of drone aeromagnetic and photogrammetry mapping survey over the entire mineral claim area; Reinterpretation of historic IP survey; Geological and drainage mapping over entire mineral claim area; Completion of 400 pan concentrate / screen concentrate sampling program over selected areas of alteration throughout the license area (assays pending). This survey will show background gold presence and highlight additional target zones. In additional to the Tin Cup and FM Zones, Northern Lights has identified over additional 20 prospective targets for further exploration at Secret Pass.

Northern Lights is currently permitting the Phase 1 diamond drill program, 11 holes for a total 1,900 meters, at Secret Pass. The processing of the Phase 1 drill permits has been slowed by Covid-19 Pandemic but the Company expects to receive the required permits in the near future. This initial Phase 1 drill program will focus on confirming the presence of high-grade gold mineralization identified by historic drilling and providing structural information as well as to test for the potential of continued mineralization at depth at Tin Cup. Also, the Phase 1 program will include two holes at the newly identified Fiery Squid zone located approximately 2 km to the north of the Tin Cup zone. A historic grab sample from the dumps adjacent to the shaft at Fiery Squid yielded 6 g/t Au. The Fiery Squid zone is an intense sericite-altered, quartz-veined set of contacts developed between a swarm of rhyolite intrusions and host andesite situated in the middle of a 1000 x 500 meter zone of iron oxide alteration.

The Company is currently active preparing the workshop in Kingman Arizona that will be used for core cutting and logging. Once drill permits have been granted, Northern Lights will immediately mobilize Altar Drilling from Tucson to the project site to commence the Phase 1 drill program. Secret Pass Project site is accessible year around for drilling and exploration activities.

The Medicine Springs Project, located in Elko County Nevada has potential to host a large-scale silver rich carbonate replacement deposit. Work completed to date by Northern Lights on the Medicine Springs project includes an aeromagnetic survey, a 800 sample ionic soil geochemistry survey and detailed geological mapping. Northern Lights has identified a length of 3,000 m x 700m width silver zinc lead anomaly that will be a focus of upcoming drilling on the project. Last October, Northern Lights announced that it had entered into a Option/Joint Venture Agreement with Reyna Silver. The geological team at Reyna Silver is led by Dr. Peter Megaw, a world-renowned geologist with proven expertise and track record of success in developing carbonate replacement deposits. Under the terms of the Agreement, Reyna Silver can earn up to 80% equity in the Medicine Springs Project by completing exploration expenditures of US$2.4 million and paying a cash payment of US$1m to Northern Lights by no later than December 31, 2023. Northern Lights has a free carry for all project expenditures until Reyna Silver have spent a minimum of US$4 million on the project.
