Sokoman Minerals Reports Highest Gold Grain Counts To Date In Till Fleur De Lys Project, North-Central Newfoundland

St. John’s, NL, April 8, 2022 – Sokoman Minerals Corp. (TSXV: SIC) (OTCQB: SICNF) (the “Company” or “Sokoman”) is pleased to provide an updated summary of the results from Phase 1, C Horizon Till survey at the Fleur de Lys Gold Project. This update also summarizes pertinent assay data from 167 rocks (grab samples from float and outcrop), out of a total of 330 samples collected during prospecting prior to and during the till sampling.

A total of 968 till samples were collected in 2021, mainly on lines spaced 1.5 km to 2 km apart, with sample spacing along the lines of 250 m. Approximately 100 till samples of that total were collected as infill samples, in areas of anomalous gold grain counts. To date, 880 till samples have been processed by Ottawa-based Overburden Drilling Management (ODM), that is overseeing the project. Sokoman has previously provided a summary of results for the first 400 of these samples (October 6, 2021, news release). Today’s release summarizes results for 480 additional samples.

The following table summarizes the results for all 880 samples processed by ODM to date.

Based on discussions with ODM, background gold grain counts are herein determined to be 10 grains per sample, whereas an anomalous sample contains at least two times background or 20 gold grains. Of the 880 results, 190 samples have at least 20 gold grains and are considered anomalous. The till data have outlined a district-scale, prospective corridor of approximately 30 km strike length. The two highest values were total gold grain counts of 200 and 230, with 94 and 41 pristine grains respectively, suggesting a local source (less than 200 metres) for some of the anomaly clusters within the prospective corridor.

A total of 282 rock samples have been acquired, prior to and during the till survey, with results received for 167 samples to date. Thirty-four (34) samples returned values >100 ppb Au (0.1 g/t Au); 18 returned values >500 ppb Au (0.5 g/t Au); and ten (10) returned values >1000 ppb Au (>1.0 g/t Au), with a maximum value of 4.60 g/t Au. Follow-up prospecting and continued infill till sampling will commence as soon as possible, upon suitable snowmelt.

Tim Froude, President, and CEO of Sokoman, says: “We are impressed with the number and quality of anomalous till values on the property. Our geochemical exploration is defining a potentially significant bedrock source for the gold in tills in areas with little or no previous exploration. We are also finding significant gold values in both float and bedrock confirming that in situ gold mineralization exists in Dalradian-equivalent rocks in Newfoundland, with several of the strongly anomalous till areas unrelated to any known mineralization. Interpretation of the till results by Overburden Drilling Management estimates the gross target area to be a 30 km strike length, within which a number of better-defined anomalies are found, a priority for detailed follow up.”

The Fleur de Lys Supergroup, which underlies the project, are equivalent rocks to the Dalradian Supergroup in the Appalachian-Caledonian belt in the United Kingdom. In the latter area, three significant gold deposits are known: the Curraghinalt and Cavanacaw deposits in Northern Ireland, and Cononish in Scotland. Dalradian-type gold deposits occur in moderate- to high-grade metamorphic terranes and are typically high grade (the Curraghinalt deposit has in excess of 6 million ounces of NI 43-101 compliant gold resources including 6.3 million tonnes at 14.95 grams per tonne (Measured and Indicated) for 3.06 million ounces; and 7.72 million tonnes at 12.24 grams per tonne gold (Inferred) for 3.03 million ounces (2018 Mineral Resource Statement, Curraghinalt Gold Project, Northern Ireland, SRK Consulting (Canada)).

About the Fleur de Lys Gold Project

The 100%-owned Fleur de Lys Gold Project is located on the Baie Verte Peninsula in north-central Newfoundland. The project is highly prospective for Dalradian-style (e.g., Curraghinalt) orogenic vein-hosted gold deposits and as such, represents a readily accessible yet underexplored, district-scale, gold target in the Newfoundland Appalachians. The property has seen little modern exploration, with some areas remaining completely unexplored although historical grab sample values of 3.3 g/t Au to 25.5 g/t Au are reported from several locations (note: historical assays have not been verified by the Company and should not be relied upon).

COVID-19 Protocols

To ensure a working environment that protects the health and safety of the staff and contractors, Sokoman is operating under federally and provincially mandated and recommended guidelines during the current COVID-19 alert level.

Till Sampling QA/QC

The till samples were collected by Sokoman personnel using field collection techniques provided by ODM. All samples were hand dug to the desired depth (C Horizon Till) with a 10 kg – 12 kg sieved sample (8 mesh) placed in a clear plastic sample bag and sealed. Samples were shipped in plastic pails by bonded courier to the ODM lab in Ottawa, Ontario. The till samples are processed using procedures designed to progressively concentrate the heavy minerals, expose the gold grains and prepare a split of the heavy mineral concentrate (“HMC”) suitable for geochemical analysis if requested. The sample is wet screened at 2 mm with a preliminary concentrate extracted from the -2 mm fraction by tabling. Geological observations on the character of the sample are made during both the screening and tabling operations. The table concentrate is purposely large (typically 300 g-400 g) and of low grade (10%-25% heavy minerals) in order to achieve a high, 80% to 90% recovery rate for all desired heavy minerals, irrespective of their grain size or relative specific gravity. The gold grains, more than 95% of which are normally silt-sized (Averill 2001), are observed at this stage with the aid of micro-panning and are counted, measured, and classified as to the degree of wear (ie distance of glacial transport), then returned to the table concentrate. The pyrite content of the pan concentrate is estimated and the number of grains of heavier, visually distinctive indicator minerals such as arsenopyrite, galena, scheelite, cinnabar, etc. is recorded.

Quality Control and Quality Assurance Measures

In addition to using field duplicates to monitor the quality of the indicator mineral data obtained from specific projects, ODM performs blind tests to ensure that the recovery rates for all targeted minerals are consistently in the 80% to 90% range. Furthermore, both the quality of the mineral separation and the overall mineralogy of the concentrate are visible at every stage of the concentration process, minimizing the potential for sample mix-ups, indicator mineral carryover between samples, and other potential contamination issues. For example, gold grains, which are the most important indicator mineral on many surveys, are more susceptible to inter-sample carryover than any other indicator mineral due to their very small size, but these grains are physically observed during the first stage of mineral concentration, tabling, and, if anomalous concentrations are present, blank samples are tabled and carefully inspected for gold grains before the next project sample is processed.

Rock Sample Analysis

Rock sample analysis (gold by fire assay) was completed at Eastern Analytical Ltd. (Eastern), in Springdale NL. Samples were delivered in sealed bags directly to the lab by Sokoman personnel. Eastern is an accredited assay lab that conforms to the requirements of ISO/IEC 17025. Eastern routinely inserts industry-accepted standards and blanks in all sample runs performed as well as completing random duplicate analyses.

Sokoman And Benton Report First Drill Assay Results From The Kraken Pegmatite Field – Golden Hope Project, Sw Newfoundland

The 8.4 metre pegmatite dike averaged 0.95% Li2O
with grades hitting a high of 1.76% Li2O

St. John’s, NL, March 24, 2022 – Sokoman Minerals Corp. (TSXV:SIC) (OTCQB:SICNF) (“Sokoman”) and Benton Resources Inc. (TSXV:BEX) (“Benton”) together, (the “Alliance”) are pleased to report the first assay results from the 1,025 m reconnaissance drilling program, that tested the recently discovered Kraken pegmatite field on the Golden Hope Joint Venture Property in southwestern Newfoundland. The samples were cut from an 8.40 m wide (drilled thickness), spodumene-bearing, pegmatite dike that returned the following assays:

**Widths reported are believed to be 90% of true thickness**

Assay values ranged from 0.08% to 1.76% Li2O reflecting variations of spodumene content, and the presence of occasional barren wall rock or quartz vein inclusions, averaging 0.95% Li2O over 8.40 m from 47.8 to 56.2 m. Other pegmatite dikes ranging from 0.40 m to 2.30 m with variable spodumene content were also intersected in hole GH-22-01 with assays pending. Gold analysis results from the host sericite schist units carrying variable pyrite are also pending. All samples submitted, 1,165 including blanks and standards, for the remainder of GH-22-01 as well as for holes GH-22-02 to 06 are pending.

**Golden Hope Project – Kraken Pegmatite Swarm Drilling/Sampling Update**

The 1,025 m program focused on a 100 m by 150 m area in the vicinity of the initial discovery (see map), which included more than 100 float and outcrop grab samples and composite chip samples, that returned lithium values ranging from 0.05% to 2.37% Li2O. Multiple mineralized, spodumene-bearing dikes were intersected in all drill holes ranging from less than 1.0 m to 8.40 m in drilled thickness (true thicknesses believed to be 90% of drilled thickness), from surface to approximately 50 m vertically below surface. The Kraken pegmatite field has been sampled over a strike length of 2,200 metres and an apparent width of 1,200 metres, and historical assessment work reports pegmatite dikes exposed up to 6 kilometres along trend.

All samples have been shipped to Activation Laboratories in Ancaster, Ontario for multi-element analysis including lithium, tantalum, cesium and other rare/critical metals by Sodium Peroxide Fusion ICPOES + ICPMS. Gold will be analyzed by fire assay.

The property lies along the Bay d’Est fault system, a gold prospective fault structure in southern Newfoundland that extends through the Sokoman/Benton licences. The Alliance continues to evaluate historical data for significant gold and lithium mineralization and will restart ground prospecting and follow-up exploration once weather conditions permit.

Sokoman’s President and CEO Tim Froude, comments: “The Alliance is pleased with the first assays from our recon drilling program at the Kraken pegmatite field. Our objectives for the program were to establish significant lithium values to depth and to better understand the distribution and orientation of the dikes – the results have confirmed our objectives, with grades reported comparing favourably to many global lithium projects currently known. We wish to emphasize that we have just scratched the surface with the exploration to date, and that we have extensive work ahead of us to establish the limits of the dike swarm given that previous workers have reported pegmatites at least six kilometres on trend from the area just drilled. The Alliance is purchasing a camp to facilitate a larger drill program that will be put in place once we receive all required permits. In the meantime, as soon as conditions allow, we will be prospecting and sampling the many reported dike occurrences beyond the area already sampled to establish the true extent of the lithium-enriched dike swarm.”
Benton’s President and CEO Stephen Stares, states: “The first drill hole drilled for lithium on the Island of Newfoundland has confirmed good grades of lithium comparable to other lithium pegmatite systems worldwide. We’ve barely scratched the surface of this extensive system and we’re anxious to get back on the ground, prosecting, sampling, mapping and drilling and completing more regional exploration in general. Both companies are very well financed to execute our upcoming field season plans. I’m confident that this summer will unveil excellent value for our shareholders.”

Sokoman / Benton Intersect Gold In All Five Drill Holes Over 5 Km Strike Length Confirming Extensive Gold System At Grey River

St. John’s, NL, March 16, 2022 – Sokoman Minerals Corp. (TSXV: SIC) (OTCQB: SICNF) (“Sokoman”) and Benton Resources Inc. (TSXV: BEX) (“Benton”) together (the “Alliance”), are pleased to announce the results from the maiden drill program at Grey River, Newfoundland. The Alliance reports that the drilling has returned multiple intersections in drill holes covering 5.0 kilometers of strike length and is open in all directions. The results are highlighted by GR-21-01, the easternmost hole drilled, that intersected three distinct gold zones including a high-grade interval of 10.58 g/t Au over 1.80 m including 50.13 g/t Au over 0.35 m.

Program highlights include:

Timothy Froude, P. Geo., President and CEO of Sokoman states; “The first drilling that tested the gold potential of this huge system has exceeded our expectations. It is hard to believe that the area has never been drilled for gold even though gold was first reported from the property in the 1980s. In addition to the assays in the table, broad zones of anomalous Au mineralization, from 5 to 250 ppb, were intersected in all holes. More exploration is required to understand the controls on the gold mineralization particularly the high-grade zones which are found in two areas on the property over four kilometers apart. The highest-grade results are from the easternmost hole (GR-21-01) and all the mineralized zones are open in every direction.”

Stephen Stares, President and CEO of Benton states; “It is important for shareholders to understand the scale and potential of this project. We’ve essentially tested random areas of a huge silica zone to see if the system was carrying gold mineralization at depth. This maiden drill program has exceeded our expectations, and not only did we hit gold in every hole over 5 km, but we’ve also confirmed high grades which is open in all directions. The alliance is very excited to get back working on this project and permitting for a more extensive exploration program including 25 to 30 drill holes is underway. I truly believe this very large (>10 km) silica system could be host to a very significant gold deposit and I can hardly wait to get drills turning again.”

**Field setup for GR-21-01 – Grey River JV Property**

Gold mineralization is associated with extensive silica zones containing 2%–20% disseminated and stringer pyrite in the >10 km quartz/silica body in the eastern half of the property. The higher grades appear to be associated with discreet quartz-sulphide veins that cut the silica body at a low angle. Historic grab samples, and recent grab samples taken by Sokoman and Benton personnel (see September 2, 2021 press release), have given gold values ranging from 5 ppb to 225 g/t Au and drilling has confirmed the gold mineralized zones are extensive. Previously released assay values from GR-21-01 (37.65 g/t Au over 0.35 m) have increased to 50.13 g/t Au over 0.35 m due to re-assaying using the metallic screen method suggesting that free gold is present.

Previous workers have compared the gold mineralization at Grey River to the high-grade Pogo gold mine in the Tintina district of Alaska. The Pogo mine, to the end of 2019, produced 3.9M oz gold at 13.6 g/t Au (Northern Star Resources, November 22, 2021).

Noteworthy of the Grey River project is:

No previous drilling for gold in the silica zone which has been mapped over a 10 km strike length and remains open – most holes collared in, and ended in, the silica zone
Gold mineralization has been located in five holes over a 5 km strike length
Gold zones in multiple drill holes with grades up to 50.13 g/t Au
25–30 drill holes planned to start spring/early summer 2022

Sokoman And Benton Complete Recon Drilling At Kraken Pegmatite Field On The Golden Hope Project, Southwestern Newfoundland

Five holes completed; multiple spodumene-bearing dikes intersected

St. John’s, NL; February 24, 2022 – Sokoman Minerals Corp. (TSXV: SIC) (OTCQB: SICNF) (“Sokoman”) and Benton Resources Inc. (TSXV: BEX) (“Benton”) together, (“the Alliance”) are pleased to announce the completion of a 1025 m reconnaissance drilling program testing the recently discovered Kraken Pegmatite Field at the Golden Hope Joint Venture Project in southwestern Newfoundland. This represents the first known drill program directly targeting lithium mineralization in the province of Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada.

The five-hole program focused on a 100 m by 100 m area in the vicinity of the initial discovery (map in progress; will be posted asap), which included more than 100 float and outcrop grab samples and composite chip samples, that returned lithium values ranging from 0.05% to 2.37% Li2O. Multiple mineralized, spodumene-bearing dikes were intersected in all drill holes ranging from less than 1 m to approximately 8 m in drilled thickness (true thicknesses are not known at this time), from surface to approximately 50 m vertically below surface.

**Spodumene (pale-green needle-shaped crystals) in GH-22-01 (depth shown in metres)**

Core logging and sampling are ongoing and are expected to be completed in one week. All samples will be shipped to Activation Laboratories in Ancaster, Ontario for multi-element analysis including lithium, tantalum, cesium, and other rare / critical metals by Sodium Peroxide Fusion ICPOES + ICPMS. The Kraken Pegmatite Field has been sampled over a strike length of 2200 metres and an apparent width of 1200 metres, and historical assessment work suggests the field could extend beyond the current limits. Geological mapping and prospecting will be underway, as soon as conditions allow, to further expand the mineralized dike swarm.

The area lies along the Baie d’Est fault system, a gold prospective fault structure in southern Newfoundland that extends through the Sokoman / Benton licenses. Samples of the host rock for the pegmatite dikes, mainly a foliated sericite schist, carrying strong pyrite mineralization, will be analyzed for Au at Activation Laboratories by the fire assay method. Two types of potential gold mineralization have been noted:

Pyrite (1-10%), associated with quartz/tourmaline/pyrite (QTP) veins, similar to the mineralization at the Valentine Gold property of Marathon Gold Corporation, 73 km NE
Silicification, with disseminated pyrite, similar to the gold mineralization at the past-producing Hope Brook Gold Mine, located 23 km along trend to the SW

Sokoman’s President and CEO Tim Froude, comments: “The Alliance is extremely pleased with the initial drill program at the Kraken Pegmatite Field and looks forward to receiving the analytical results. Through adverse weather conditions, we were able to complete a 1025 m program in five holes (a sixth hole was collared but was abandoned at 38 m due to poor ground conditions) ranging from 182 m to 224 m in length. We have now taken the first major lithium discovery on the Island of Newfoundland from a surface showing to a drilled prospect with only 5% of the known extent of surface mineralization tested, which remains open in all directions. Future drilling at the Kraken Pegmatite Field will follow compilation of all data including assays, recently flown airborne magnetics, LiDAR, high-resolution aerial photography, and proposed mapping in Q2 2022.”
Benton’s President and CEO Stephen Stares, states: “Even though we only tested a small portion of the Kraken pegmatites, Benton is quite pleased with the data and understanding received in this current program. It’s apparent that the Alliance should establish an onsite camp and use a tracked drill rig to test the scale of the Kraken pegmatite swarm more efficiently. In addition, the large zones of silicification and sulphides are a welcome surprise, and it will be interesting to see if there is gold in this mineralized system. We are excited for the future of this project as we get ready to ramp-up exploration in the coming months.”

Sokoman And Benton Initiate Drill Program At The Kraken Lithium Prospect On The Golden Hope Jv; Spodumene-Bearing Pegmatite Encountered In First Hole

St. John’s, NL, January 21, 2022 – Sokoman Minerals Corp. (TSXV:SIC) (OTCQB:SICNF) (“Sokoman”) and Benton Resources Inc. (TSXV:BEX) (“Benton”) together, (the “Alliance”) are pleased to announce that the Alliance has commenced the Phase 1 diamond drilling program at the Kraken Lithium prospect on the Golden Hope JV project located in southwest Newfoundland near the village of Burgeo. The diamond drilling program is expected to consist of 1,000 to 2,000 metres of diamond drill core in 4-6 holes designed to test an extensive system of spodumene- bearing dykes which have been sampled over a strike length of two kilometres within a corridor measuring 1,000 metres in apparent width and open in all directions. The Alliance is also pleased to announce that the first hole, with planned drill depth of 350 m-400 m across stratigraphy, has intercepted several spodumene-bearing (an important source of lithium) dykes near surface and the hole continues. Pictures of the core will be posted on both Benton’s and Sokoman’s websites in order to keep shareholders engaged in its progress at the Kraken dyke swarm. The Alliance is very pleased with the progress thus far and is in the process of logging, cutting and sampling the core to be submitted for assay as soon as possible. Kraken is the first-ever high-grade lithium discovery in Newfoundland and Labrador, with surface grab samples returning grades from trace to 2.37% Li2O (see Alliance joint press release dated August 16, 2021). This is also the first Newfoundland drilling program designed to target lithium.

The Kraken Pegmatites are highly evolved, pegmatite swarms similar to the geological environment and setting of other large systems in the Appalachian belt, including the important deposits held by Piedmont Lithium Inc. in the Carolinas, eastern US, as well as in the geologically equivalent Avalonia Project being advanced by Ganfeng Lithium in the Caledonides of Ireland. All samples will be submitted to Actlabs in Ancaster, Ontario for analysis by Sodium Peroxide Fusion ICPOES + ICPMS.

Timothy Froude, President and CEO of Sokoman stated: “With the first hole we have confirmed a potentially significant lithium prospect on the Golden Hope Property. The presence of both fine-grained and coarse-grained spodumene identical in habit and mode of occurrence as our high-grade surface showings is very reassuring, and detailed core logging and core sampling is underway. The weather has been challenging and we appreciate the efforts of our drill contractor, Springdale Forest Resources. With spodumene-bearing pegmatite dykes now in drill core, we have no doubt the Kraken dyke swarm will be a significant development moving forward for shareholders of Sokoman and Benton.”
Stephen Stares, President and CEO of Benton stated: “We were very excited to conduct the first-ever drill program targeting lithium in Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada and are thrilled that we have intercepted spodumene in pegmatites in our maiden drill hole. This confirms that the dykes continue to depth. Collectively, our teams are confident that our Alliance has discovered something very special and we look forward to our initial drilling assay results.”

Sokoman’s Barge Drilling Program Delivers Strong Au Results Moosehead Project, Central Newfoundland

Multiple shallow intercepts including 3.10 m of 100 g/t Au in MH-21-342

St. John’s, NL, January 20, 2022 – Sokoman Minerals Corp. (TSXV: SIC) (OTCQB: SICNF) is pleased to report additional high-grade assays from the Moosehead Project including several barge-based drill holes completed just prior to the Christmas break, which were “super rushed” for metallics assaying at Eastern Analytical Ltd. in Springdale, NL.

Assay highlights include:

MH-21-342 – 5.55 m of 56.58 g/t Au incl. 3.10 m of 100.00 g/t Au from 67.80 m
MH-21-345 – 4.75 m of 20.75 g/t Au incl. 2.25 m of 39.57 g/t Au from 117.65 m
MH-21-346 – 9.60 m of 7.33 g/t Au incl. 4.55 m of 12.98 g/t Au from 122.20 m

Also included are drill holes from the 75 Zone which has been extended to the north towards the Main Eastern Trend (MH-21-298), as well as holes from the southern limit of the Eastern Trend (MH-21-259 and MH-21-263) stepping southwards towards the 75 Zone (see Drill Plan Map below). Additional drilling is planned to close the approximately 100 m gap between the two zones. Modelling is suggesting that shallow intercepts in the 75 Zone, including MH-21-298, 17.50 m downhole with 2.30 m at 9.75 g/t in 8.40 m of 3.35 g/t Au, may be a splay off the Eastern Zone and that the 75 Zone actually is the southward extension of the Main Eastern Trend which includes high-grade splays.

The drilling confirms very shallow, high-grade, gold-bearing veins lying in the Main Eastern Trend, as well as in splays or offshoots from it, as shown in an expanded table of results below included with this news release. Intersected, downhole, Au values quoted are thought to be 80-90% of true widths.

Tim Froude, President and CEO of Sokoman, says: “We continue to see strong, near surface Au values over good widths, from the Main Eastern Trend/Footwall Splay area, as well as the northern end of the 75 Zone (MH-21-298) enhancing our belief that the two zones will eventually merge. The barge drilling program is intersecting excellent infill and step-out Au values in holes in the Upper Eastern Trend/Footwall Splay including holes MH-21-345 and MH-21-346 that are located on the northernmost section drilled from the barge (see Cross Section Map below). These holes confirm a strong, high-grade Au zone that remains open, up-plunge to surface, and down plunge below 200 metres including previously released holes MH-19-62 (33.59 g/t Au over 4.80 m) and MH-21-200 (10.26 g/t Au over 3.80 m). The Au mineralization in Section A-B is defined over a minimum of 150 m down dip remaining open to depth and to surface. Additional drilling will take place either from the ice if conditions allow (permit is in hand) or from the barge in the spring.”

Modelling confirms that Moosehead Au mineralization is focused around the Eastern Trend and that mineralized offsets such as the Footwall Splay, may include others such as the 75 and South Pond Zones. An important goal for the remaining 50,000+ metres in the drilling program is to merge all of the zones into a single mineralized body.

Other gold mineralized areas:
253 Zone – located approximately 300 m to the east of the Eastern Trend – cut two zones of Au mineralization – 7.5 m of 0.31 g/t, 32 m downhole, and 1.78 g/t Au over 1.40 m, 54.8 m downhole, drilled last fall, require additional drilling to evaluate. Twelve (12) holes were drilled around hole 253 but due to logistical issues (streams and wetlands), were not able to properly test the zone. Assays for most holes are pending including the western-most hole (MH-20-273) which intersected quartz veining with two specks of visible gold noted. The 253 Zone is considered highly prospective as only 75 m of strike length has been tested, but most likely not tested properly, and the zone is mineralized, quartz float boulders with visible gold and high-grade Au values are found in the vicinity, and geophysics (VLF-EM) suggests a strike length of the structure, hosting the mineralized veins, of several kilometres. The 253 Zone is a separate structure and is not part of the Eastern Trend although the two zones are parallel to sub-parallel (see Drill Plan Map below). Winter conditions, snow and freezing temperatures, will allow for better positioning of the drills testing the 253 Zone over the next couple of months.

South Pond Zone – drilling on-hold pending additional modelling to get a better understanding of the structures controlling the Au mineralization. To date 29 holes (4250 m) completed with the high-grade zone traced 50 m along strike and 100 m down dip. The high-grade zone is believed to be a splay off of the Main Eastern Trend structure with the area where the two zones are projected to join being the focus of the next round of drilling this winter.

Near-surface gold mineralization, first intersected in MH-21-152 (3.0 m @1.82 g/t Au) is believed to be in the same structure as recent hole MH-21-251 which cut 3.65 m at 2.47 g/t Au in the southern part of the 75 Zone. Reconnaissance drilling in early December, to the east of the South Pond Zone, intersected 5.25 m at 1.93 g/t Au in hole MH-21-344 with textures and mineralogy indicating the mineralization is part of the Main Eastern Trend structure. The intersection is approximately 330 m to the south of MH-21-263 which is at the southern limit of the Eastern Trend. Additional drilling will test both targets at the start of the winter drilling program.

Sokoman And Benton Continue To Expand The Kraken Lithium Pegmatite Swarm In Newfoundland And Initiate Drill Mobilization

St. John’s, NL, January 6, 2022 – Sokoman Minerals Corp. (TSXV: SIC) (OTCQB: SICNF) (“Sokoman”) and Benton Resources Inc. (TSXV: BEX) (“Benton”) together, (the “Alliance”) are pleased to announce that the Alliance has received additional assays confirming the discovery of several new parallel lithium-bearing dykes located 200 m – 300 m to the West-Northwest and to the East and Northeast of the main Kraken Pegmatite discovery. The Alliance collected 50 grab samples of which 17 contained significant spodumene grading from 0.23% Li2O to >2.15% Li2O (over limit assaying pending). These samples were collected from various large sub-crop boulders and poorly-exposed dykes ranging from one metre – three metres in width. The Alliance is extremely pleased with the new results and has planned an inaugural diamond drilling program to commence in the coming weeks. In addition, the Alliance will also initiate a large regional till survey along the favourable 60 km-long structural trend which the Alliance controls. The till survey results will assist with targeting and prospecting in early-spring work programs. The Kraken Pegmatites are highly-evolved pegmatite swarms in a geological environment similar to that of other large systems in the Appalachian belt, including the important deposits held by Piedmont Lithium Inc. in the Carolinas, eastern US, as well as in the geologically equivalent Avalonia Project being advanced by Ganfeng Lithium in the Caledonides of Ireland. All samples were submitted to Actlabs in Ancaster, Ontario for analysis by Sodium Peroxide Fusion ICPOES + ICPMS.

Timothy Froude, P.Geo., President and CEO of Sokoman stated: “We are thrilled with the latest assay results which further expand the Kraken field of lithium-bearing pegmatites. The upcoming drill program will be instrumental in properly valuing the project with a view to potentially spinning out the asset if results are favourable.”
Stephen Stares, President and CEO of Benton stated: “With continued discoveries of additional lithium-bearing dykes, we are very confident that our Alliance has discovered something very special in Newfoundland. We are also very excited to initiate our upcoming maiden drill program, that will assist us in furthering our understanding of the dimensions, size and grade of the main discovery area around the Kraken dyke swarm.”

Benton And Sokoman Announce Gold Discovery At The Grey River Gold Project, Southern Newfoundland

Assays for six of 13 core samples, “super rushed” for assay, return from 1.34 to 37.64 g/t Au.

Thunder Bay, ON, November 25, 2021 – Benton Resources Inc. (TSXV: BEX) (“Benton”) and Sokoman Minerals Corp. (TSXV: SIC) (OTCQB: SICNF) (“Sokoman”), together (the “Alliance”), are pleased to announce that preliminary results from the maiden drill program at Grey River, Newfoundland, have returned multiple drill intersections of potentially significant gold mineralization. Program highlights include:

1,026 m completed in five holes over a four-kilometre strike length
Widespread pyrite mineralization encountered in all holes
643 core samples cut and delivered for assay of which 13 samples were “super rushed”
for Au analysis; six of the 13 samples “super rushed” returned from 1.34 to 37.64 g/t Au
630 samples are pending assay results

*Lengths are core lengths and believed to be 90% true length

Grey River – Drilling location map

Drill holes GR-21-01 to GR-21-05 were drilled within a 5-km strike length (location map attached) of the 10-km-long quartz/silica zone located 4 km east of the community of Grey River. Drilling operations including crew changes, drill moves, core logging and sampling, as well as camp logistics were helicopter supported with all personnel based in a remote fishing/hunting camp. Five drill holes totaling 1,026 m were completed with hole lengths ranging from 148 m to 235 m. A total of 643 samples ranging from 0.35 m to 1.25 m in length were cut onsite using a diamond core saw. Samples were flown to the town of Burgeo and then delivered to Eastern Analytical Ltd. in Springdale, Newfoundland by road transport halfway through and at the end of the program. Thirteen samples were “super rushed” with the remaining 630 samples awaiting gold analysis by standard fire assay for Au and ICP analysis for other elements. Samples assaying >1 g/t gold, including the “super rush” samples, will be re-analyzed by the “metallics” method.

Gold mineralization in the eastern-half of the property is associated with zones of disseminated and stringer pyrite (from 2-20% pyrite) in the 10-km-long quartz/silica body, and in discreet quartz veins that cut the body. Historic grab samples, and recent grab samples taken by Benton and Sokoman personnel (see September 2, 2021 press release), have given gold values ranging from 50 ppb to a maximum of 225 g/t Au. No prior drilling for gold has taken place in or near the quartz/silica body.

Stephen Stares, President and CEO of Benton states; “This is truly an exciting time for the Alliance. We’ve encountered two significant intercepts in our first hole with a significant number of assays pending. This hole is located 4 km east of the surface high grade encountered from our prospecting program. We believe this very large quartz system could be quite significant and we’re excited to plan the next phase of diamond drilling.”

Timothy Froude, P. Geo., President and CEO of Sokoman states; “These are outstanding results from reconnaissance drill holes on a property that has seen virtually no exploration for gold beyond sporadic grab sampling. The results reported are from three groups of consecutive samples from separate zones of pyrite mineralization from the first two holes completed. We decided to analyze a limited number of samples under “super rush” instructions to see if gold was present, as all that is known about gold in this area is that it is associated with pyrite. Needless to say, we are extremely pleased and already have more than enough evidence to support drilling in 2022. The Grey River property was acquired jointly by the Sokoman/Benton Alliance, which is targeting district scale gold opportunities in Newfoundland. Sokoman is now one of the largest land holders in Newfoundland and is sufficiently funded to advance our portfolio of properties.”

Previous workers have compared the gold mineralization at Grey River to the high-grade Pogo gold mine in the Tintina district of Alaska. The Pogo gold mine, to the end of 2019, produced 3.9M oz gold at 13.6 g/t. March 31, 2021 Probable Mineral Reserves were 5.9M tonnes @ 8 g/t for 1.5M oz and Indicated plus Inferred Mineral Resources were 23M tonnes @ 9.4 g/t for 6.9M oz. gold (See Northern Star Resources website, November 22, 2021. Mineral Resources are inclusive of Mineral Reserves. These resource figures are JORC-compliant and not NI 43-101-compliant. NI 43-101 regulations do not allow Indicated and Inferred Resources to be combined in public disclosures).

Sokoman Reports First Barge-Based Drill Results Moosehead Gold Project, Central Newfoundland

Phase 6 drill Program doubled to 100,000 m.

St. John’s, NL, November 10, 2021 – Sokoman Minerals Corp. (TSXV: SIC) (OTCQB: SICNF) is pleased to report the first results from the barge-based drilling on North Pond on the 100%-owned Moosehead Project in the Central Newfoundland Gold Belt.

MH-21-291: 4.95 m of 27.70 g/t Au from 41.55 m downhole

MH-21-283: 4.20 m of 14.72 g/t Au within 9.80 m of 6.65 g/t Au from 53.00 m downhole

The results confirm shallow, high-grade, gold-bearing quartz veins which are extensions to the Upper Eastern Trend and the Footwall Splay mineralized zones (plan map attached). The reported holes were drilled on a 10 m to 15 m grid spacing south of MH-20-115, which gave significant intercepts of 4.60 m of 47.20 g/t Au from the Footwall Splay, and further downhole, 8.10 m of 68.70 g/t Au from the Upper Eastern Trend (November 19, 2020 NR). The new holes are on trend towards the 75 Zone, located approximately 150 m further south, and from where recent results include MH-21-234 that returned 4.80 m of 17.56 g/t Au (September 28, 2021 NR).

Tim Froude, President and CEO of Sokoman, says: “We are extremely pleased with the early results from the North Pond, barge-based, drilling. We have been stressing the importance of this program for several months and it is very rewarding to see our expectations met with these strong results. The barge program to date consists of 20 holes with mineralized veins encountered in the majority of the holes. Some holes tested both the Upper Eastern Trend and the Footwall Splay zones with the table above reporting both intersections. The barge program will continue as long as conditions allow. Winter conditions, mainly freezing, are expected in late November to mid-December, at which point the barge will be pulled from the pond and mothballed until spring 2022. We are also pleased to announce that the current 50,000 m program has been increased to 100,000 m with drilling to continue with occasional breaks through 2022. We see growth potential in all areas of the known mineralized corridors as well as discovery potential on our numerous regional targets.”

Sokoman And Benton – More High-Grade Lithium Results Kraken Pegmatites In Newfoundland

Further grab sampling returns values up to 1.93% Li2O.

St. John’s, NL November 9, 2021 – Sokoman Minerals Corp. (TSXV: SIC) (OTCQB: SICNF) (“Sokoman”) and Benton Resources Inc. (TSXV: BEX) (“Benton”) together, (“the Alliance”) are pleased to announce that they continue to expand the extent of the recently-discovered Kraken pegmatite field at the Golden Hope Joint Venture Project located in southwestern Newfoundland. This is the first significant discovery of Lithium mineralization documented in the province of Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada.

Phase 3 sampling at the Kraken pegmatite field has given grab-sample results grading from trace up to 1.93% Li2O with 11 samples having values >0.5% Li2O, and six samples >1% Li2O. The 49 grab samples were collected over a 0.5 km2 area over the swarm of poorly-exposed pegmatite and aplite dykes which display characteristics of significant pegmatite fields around the world including zonation of Tantalum, Rubidium and Cesium minerals, all considered Critical Specialty elements for the Green electric future.

The Alliance has also discovered several new spodumene-bearing pegmatites to the west of the original discovery, further expanding the dyke swarm. The dyke swarm has now been sampled over a strike length of 2200 metres and an apparent width of 1200 metres. A further 50 samples were taken with results to be released in the coming weeks.

A detailed LiDAR / Photogrammetry survey covering 8.4 km2 of the pegmatite field has now been completed, extending westward to cover the high-grade Beryllium showing which had two samples with >5000 ppm Be, and associated anomalous Lithium, Cesium, Rubidium and Tantalum values, and also eastward to cover the possible extension of the newly-discovered eastern pegmatite swarm.

Samples were submitted to Actlabs in Ancaster, Ontario for analysis by Sodium Peroxide Fusion ICPOES + ICPMS.

Sokoman’s President and CEO Tim Froude, adds: “The Alliance has made great strides in expanding this exciting new discovery and the mineralization is still open in all directions. It is clear we need to gather as much critical data as we can prior to proposing a Phase 1 drilling program to maximize the potential of this discovery. We are about to begin discussions with our respective Boards of Directors and advisors as to how to proceed with this exciting opportunity for the maximum benefit of our shareholders.”

Benton’s President and CEO Stephen Stares, states: “It is very evident that the Kraken pegmatite field is quickly becoming something of potential economic interest. To find something brand new and of this extent is truly exciting. With the growing demand for Lithium and other critical metals we are very happy to be entering the race with this new discovery.”

(“Sokoman”) (TSXV: SIC) (OTCQB: SICNF) (jointly, ”the Companies” or singularly a “Joint Venture Party”) are pleased to announce that they have entered into mutual participation agreements (the “Participation Agreements”) that govern cost reimbursement between the Companies relating to certain option agreements entered into by each of Benton and Sokoman on behalf of their strategic exploration alliance announced on May 20, 2021. Pursuant to the strategic alliance the Companies agreed to share, on a 50/50 basis, exploration costs and costs associated with the exercise of property options entered into by either party on behalf of the strategic alliance. In cases where one of the Joint Venture Parties enters into an option agreement that requires shares to be issued to a third party optionor the other Joint Venture Party will contribute its 50% of the costs by reimbursing the first company for 50% of the option payments. Where common shares are required to be issued as part of the option payments in order to ensure that the costs are equally divided the monetary value of such shares will be calculated and the Joint Venture Party that did not enter into the option agreement will issue such number of shares to the Joint Venture Party that did enter into the option agreement that have a monetary value equal to 50% of the value of the shares issued by the Joint Venture Party that has entered into the option agreement.

Sokoman and Benton have on behalf of the strategic alliance, each entered into two property option agreements that have previously been announced that are being contributed to the strategic alliance and governed by the Participation Agreements.

Sokoman And Benton Expand The Kraken Lithium Pegmatite Swarm In Newfoundland

Dyke system expanded: 2.2 km-long by 0.85 km-wide

Fine-grained spodumene identified in several new areas
Dyke system is wide open for expansion

St. John’s, NL, October 14, 2021 – Sokoman Minerals Corp. (“Sokoman”) (TSXV: SIC) (OTCQB: SICNF) and Benton Resources Inc. (“Benton”) (TSXV: BEX) (jointly “the Alliance”) are pleased to announce that prospecting has expanded the area containing lithium-bearing pegmatite dykes, now known as “The Kraken Pegmatite Swarm”, to an area measuring approximately 2.2 km-long by 0.85 km-wide. In the past two weeks, the Alliance has focused their prospecting to the east of the original discovery and now have identified multiple areas of spodumene-bearing pegmatites dykes ranging from 0.5 m to 10.0 m in thickness from possible stacked swarms striking approximately 50 degrees and dipping 45-65 degrees east with unknown strike length. A total of 55 samples were collected over the eastern-half of the swarm area and assay results are expected within the next few weeks. All samples were submitted to Actlabs in Ancaster, Ontario for analysis by Sodium Peroxide Fusion ICPOES + ICPMS.

The Alliance also received further assays from a second phase of sampling collected from a till covered area, west of the original discovery, with samples of sub-crops and large local boulders returning anomalous results of rubidium, tantalum and lithium. One sample of a large, angular, purple pegmatite boulder located 600 m west of the original lithium zone graded 1.04% Li2O. The sampling has demonstrated that the dyke system contains economic grades of lithium, is widespread, and open along strike.

The Alliance is planning detailed geological mapping and a high-resolution drone survey that will include imagery, lidar and magnetic datasets to assist in the mapping and targeting the dyke system for drilling which will commence shortly. The companies have already completed a 5,709 line-km Heliborne High-Resolution Aeromagnetic & Matrix Digital VLF-EM Survey flown by Terraquest Ltd. with the final data currently being processed. The survey will provide the structural / lithological setting and help identify gold-bearing structure extensions, as well as any unrecognized structures including those potentially related to the lithium-bearing pegmatites.

Benton’s President and CEO, Stephen Stares, states: “The Alliance has discovered and released high-grade results up to 2.37% Li2O which is the first of its kind in Newfoundland. As the Alliance continues to advance the lithium potential, it’s quickly becoming evident that the Kraken dyke system is a large, highly-evolved, pegmatite field similar to the geological environment and setting of other large systems in the Appalachian belt, including the important deposits held by Piedmont Lithium Inc in the Carolinas, eastern US, as well as in the geologically equivalent Avalonia Project being advanced by Ganfeng Lithium in the Caledonides of Ireland.”

Benton Resources And Sokoman Minerals Commence Diamond Drilling Grey River Jv Project, Southern Newfoundland

Phase 1 Program Approximately 2,000 metres

Thunder Bay, ON, October 12, 2021 – Benton Resources Inc. (“Benton”) (TSXV: BEX) and Sokoman Minerals Corp. (“Sokoman”) (TSXV: SIC) (OTCQB: SICNF) (jointly “the Alliance”) are pleased to announce that Phase 1 diamond drilling has commenced at the Grey River JV gold project (the ”Project”) on the south coast of Newfoundland. The Project is targeting high-grade gold mineralization similar in style to the Pogo gold deposit in the Tintina Belt of Alaska.

The Project is centered on the community of Grey River, a deep-water, ice-free harbour on the south coast of the Island of Newfoundland, 32 km to the east of the town of Burgeo, and 38 km southeast of the Golden Hope JV gold project. The Alliance’s claims straddle a deep-seated, east-west trending, ductile shear zone that separates a large enclave of Late Precambrian amphibolite, gabbro, metasediments, felsic metavolcanics and mafic orthogneisses from a batholith-scale, syn-kinematic suite of Siluro-Devonian granitoid rocks. The east-west shear zone at Grey River, and parallel structures immediately offshore, are fundamental crustal breaks along which metal-rich, mid- to late-Devonian granites were emplaced, along the southern coast of the Island.

Rocks in this area of southwestern Newfoundland are unusually enriched in Au, Mo, Cu, W, F and Bi. A 5 km- by 10 km-long area within, and adjoining the property, is particularly metal-rich, hosting:

multiple mesothermal/intrusion-related Au-rich (+/- Bi-Ag-Sb-Pb-Zn) quartz veins
1. a porphyry Mo-Cu deposit (Moly Brook)
2. a vein-type wolframite-rich W deposit (Grey River #10)
3. a diffusely bounded, high-purity, locally auriferous, silica deposit (Gulch Cove)

Each appears to be associated with features in the regional aero magnetics and are also reflected in regional Government lake-sediment geochemistry coverage. The primary focus of the Alliance’s exploration is quartz-vein-hosted, structurally controlled / intrusion-related, high-grade Au (+/- Ag, Bi, Sb) in both the granitic and adjacent metamorphic terrains.

Previous exploration at Grey River has identified gold mineralization in several settings:

in base-metal-rich and sulphide-poor, quartz veins and veinlets in the gneisses and related metamorphic rocks, including regional-scale silica bodies
1. in quartz veins with coarse-grained sulphides in granite
2. in sulphide-poor, quartz stock-works in sericitized granite
3. in stockwork-style quartz and quartz-sulphide veinlets with or without pervasive silica replacement in granite

Gold grades reported from historic grab and channel samples range from less than 1 g/t to more than 225 g/t Au, locally with 200-300 g/t Ag, with or without anomalous Bi, Sb and W. The 225 g/t Au chip sample is from a 20-30 cm-wide zone of pyritic alteration immediately adjacent to an 8 km-long, diffusely-bounded, quartz-rich zone. The highly anomalous value coincides with the large, elongated, high-purity silica body (12M tonnes >95% SiO) which was drilled by the Newfoundland Government in 1967, as part of an Island-wide, silica-assessment program. The silica body lies in mica schists, along the boundary with amphibolite gneisses and mica-schists, and along the flank of a prominent aeromagnetic high. Its origin is unclear with past workers proposing different origins including meta-quartzite, quartz vein, silica replacement. The style, grades, setting and Au-Ag-Bi-W-Sb geochemical signature of the gold mineralization, have drawn comparisons with the high-grade Pogo gold mine in the Tintina Gold Belt of Alaska and Yukon which is gold in diffusely bounded quartz bodies in amphibolite grade gneisses. The Pogo mine has produced 3.9 million oz gold at 13.6 g/t gold (to end of 2019), with Mineral Reserves of more than 7 million oz gold.

Tim Froude, President and CEO of Sokoman, says: “We are very pleased to begin this program at Grey River, which will be the first drilling program directed at the gold potential of the large quartz zones or bodies in the eastern portion of the property. Historical sampling results include chip/channel samples of 225 g/t Au, and widespread grab-sample values from less than detection to 3.8 g/t Au. None of the gold enriched areas, which occur over an 8 km strike length of the silica body, have been drill tested. We are focusing on areas of anomalous gold with 8 to 10 reconnaissance holes using data from the recently-completed, high-resolution, magnetic/electromagnetic airborne survey that identified potential structures correlating with the gold enriched areas.”
Steve Stares, President and CEO of Benton, says: “With the rapid pace in which the Alliance has advanced the Grey River project to its inaugural drill program, I’m very excited to see what this large silica system might hold as we carry out this first phase of drilling.”

Sokoman Reports Strong Gold Grain Counts In Till At Fleur De Lys Project North-Central Newfoundland

Multiple targets outlined in Phase 1 Program from 50% of Results

St. John’s, NL, October 06, 2021 – Sokoman Minerals Corp. (TSXV: SIC) (OTCQB: SICNF) (the “Company” or “Sokoman”) is pleased to announce that the Phase 1, C-Horizon till sampling program, at the Fleur de Lys Gold Project has been completed with preliminary results outlining multiple anomalous areas. A total of 823 samples were collected in Phase 1 on lines 1.5 km to 2 km apart with sample spacing along the lines at 250 m. To date, gold grain counts have been received for 400 samples with multiple anomalies identified. The table below outlines the number of samples reporting anomalous results.

Based on discussions with Ottawa-based Overburden Drilling Management (ODM), the company overseeing the project, background gold grain counts have been determined to be 10 grains per sample with an anomalous sample having 2X background or 20 gold grains. Of the 400 results received to date, 109 contain at least 20 gold grains and are considered anomalous with the two highest gold grain counts, 111 and 116 grains, carrying 90 and 84 pristine grains respectively, suggesting a very local source (less than 200 metres) on the Fleur de Lys property. A follow-up program of infill tills, based on the results to date, will commence immediately.

The field crews have also collected 60-plus rock samples with all samples pending assays. Most samples submitted for assay have in excess of 1% pyrite (iron sulphide), chalcopyrite (copper sulphide), or galena (lead sulphide).

It is expected that follow-up till sampling and prospecting will continue until late fall.

Tim Froude, President and CEO of Sokoman, said: “We are extremely pleased with the results to date at the Fleur de Lys Gold Project where our exploration has defined multiple areas where gold in till is strongly suggesting a source area in Fleur de Lys units. The Fleur de Lys Supergroup that underlies the area are equivalent rocks to the Dalradian Supergroup in the UK, where three significant gold deposits are known to occur, including the Curraghinalt and Cavanacaw deposits in Northern Ireland, and Cononish in Scotland. These gold deposits occur in moderate- to high-grade metamorphic terrains, like the Fleur de Lys, and involve significant gold resources. For example, the Curraghinalt deposit has more than 6 million ounces of NI 43-101 compliant gold resources, including 6.3 M tonnes at 15 g/t (M+I) and 7.2 M tonnes at 12.24 g/t (Inferred).”

About the Fleur de Lys Gold Project

The 100%-owned Fleur de Lys Gold Project is located on the Baie Verte Peninsula in north-central Newfoundland. The area is highly prospective for Dalradian-style (e.g., Curraghinalt) orogenic vein-hosted gold deposits and as such, represents a readily accessible yet underexplored, district-scale, gold target in the Newfoundland Appalachians. The property has seen little modern exploration, with some areas remaining completely unexplored. Historical grab sample grades of 3.3 g/t Au to 25.5 g/t Au are reported from several separate locations (Note: historical assays have not been verified by the Company and should not be relied upon.)

Reconnaissance till sampling by Sokoman in 2019/2020 in the Fleur de Lys belt defined multiple gold targets, in 129 C-horizon till samples, was sent to Overburden Drilling Management (ODM) in Ottawa for gold grain analysis. Results gave 38 samples with >20 grains, 14 >40 grains and a maximum of 122 grains with many with high gold grain counts having a high percentage (30-80%) of pristine grains, suggesting a local (< 1 km) source for the gold. The 2021 exploration has continued this early work and has already defined targets for follow-up in 2021 and more advanced exploration in 2022.

COVID-19 Protocols

Till Sampling QA/QC

The till samples were collected by Sokoman personnel using field collection techniques provided by ODM. All samples were hand dug to the desired depth (C- Horizon Till) with a 10 kg -12 kg sieved sample (8 mesh) placed in a clear-plastic sample bag and sealed. Samples were shipped in plastic pails by bonded courier to the ODM lab in Ottawa, Ontario. The till samples were processed using procedures designed to progressively concentrate the heavy minerals, expose the gold grains, and prepare a split of the heavy mineral concentrate (“HMC”), suitable for geochemical analysis if requested. The sample is wet screened at 2 mm with a preliminary concentrate extracted from the -2 mm fraction by tabling. Geological observations on the character of the sample are made during both the screening and tabling operations. The table concentrate is purposely large (typically 300 g – 400 g) and of low grade (10% – 25% heavy minerals) to achieve a high, 80% to 90% recovery rate for all desired heavy minerals irrespective of their grain size or relative specific gravity. The gold grains, more than 95% of which are normally silt-sized (Averill 2001), are observed at this stage with the aid of micro-panning and are counted, measured, and classified as to degree of wear (i.e. distance of glacial transport), then returned to the table concentrate. The pyrite content of the pan concentrate is estimated and the number of grains of heavier, visually distinctive indicator minerals such as arsenopyrite, galena, scheelite, cinnabar etc. is recorded.

Quality Control and Quality Assurance Measures

In addition to using field duplicates to monitor the quality of the indicator mineral data obtained from specific projects, ODM performs blind tests to ensure that the recovery rates for all targeted minerals are consistently in the 80 to 90% range. Furthermore, both the quality of the mineral separation and the overall mineralogy of the concentrate are visible at every stage of the concentration process, minimizing the potential for sample mix-ups, indicator mineral carryover between samples and other potential contamination issues. For example, gold grains, which are the most important indicator mineral on many surveys, are more susceptible to inter-sample carryover than any other indicator mineral due to their very small size, but these grains are physically observed during the first stage of mineral concentration, tabling, and, if anomalous concentrations are present, blank samples are tabled and carefully inspected for gold grains before the next project sample is processed.

Sokoman Expands 75 Zone And Releases Additional Results From Eastern Trend, Moosehead Gold Project, Central Newfoundland

New Structure Intersected 300 m East of Eastern Trend;

Barge-Based Drilling on North Pond Underway at Footwall Splay and Upper Eastern Trend

St. John’s, NL, September 28, 2021 – Sokoman Minerals Corp. (TSXV: SIC) (OTCQB: SICNF) (the “Company” or “Sokoman”) is pleased to announce that ongoing Phase 6 drilling at the 100%-owned Moosehead Property in central Newfoundland has intersected additional high-grade gold mineralization at both the Lower Eastern Trend and in the 75 Zone, located approximately 100 m along strike south of the main Eastern Trend. (Note: see full table of results, plan map and long section for the 75 Zone and the Eastern Trend further in this release. Not all previous intersections appear on section.)

Highlights of the recently-received rush assays (including total pulp metallics) include:

MH-21-234: 30.59 g/t Au over 2.75 m (within 4.80 m of 17.56 g/t Au)
from the 75 Zone
MH-21-243: 32.72 g/t Au over 1.70 m (within 9.20 m of 6.70 g/t Au)
from the 75 Zone
MH-21-215: 36.15 g/t Au over 0.35 m (within 2.35 m of 20.39 g/t Au)
from the Eastern Trend
MH-21-229: 18.41 g/t Au over 2.10 m (within 5.10 m of 7.64 g/t Au)
from the Eastern Trend

The Company is also pleased to announce that reconnaissance drilling testing for the source of gold-bearing boulders, discovered earlier this year 300 m to the east of North Pond (see July 6, 2021 news release), has intersected a significant structure (named the 253 Zone), featuring strong quartz veining and variable sulphide mineralization, mainly pyrite and arsenopyrite. Assays are pending and additional drilling is planned.

Tim Froude, President and CEO of Sokoman, says: “We are extremely pleased with the progress of Phase 6 with approximately 19,000 m remaining to be drilled this year. Today’s results give strong support to the growth potential of the 75 Zone with the drilling suggesting that the 75 Zone is linked to the larger Eastern Trend to the north. Our goal is to verify this connection by drilling step-out holes to the north and also down-plunge to test the zone at depth.
“The barge-based component of Phase 6 has started, and the first hole has been completed without any issues with drilling to continue until freeze-up, expected to be in late November / early December. At least 5,000 m of drilling is planned to test the Upper Eastern Trend and Footwall Splay targets where previous drilling has given some of our best holes to date including earlier Phase 6 hole MH-21-115 that gave 4.6 m of 47 g/t Au (Footwall Splay) and 8 m of 68 g/t Au (Upper Eastern Trend).
“We are also pleased to report that drilling which tested the area of the VG boulders, located earlier this summer (July 6, 2021, News Release), has intersected a previously unknown structure, parallel to the main Eastern Trend. The new structure (the 253 Zone), which carries significant veining with associated sulphides, is potentially several kilometres in strike extent based on geophysics, is open both to the northeast and southwest and will be subject to further drilling this fall. Assays are pending and further details will be provided once additional holes have been completed and assays have been received.
“We currently have four drills at Moosehead, including the recently arrived barge rig. Our intention is to temporarily relocate one of the land-based rigs for a month to carry out a Phase 1 drill program (2,000 m) at our Grey River JV with Benton Resources Inc. to test high-priority targets before winter sets in. This will take place shortly with the rig returning to Moosehead to continue testing regional targets, including the newly discovered 253 Zone until year-end.”

75 Zone

Drilling at the 75 Zone continues on 10 m – 15 m step-outs from MH-19-75, originally drilled in the fall of 2019 that had a 5.80 m intersection of 6.93 g/t Au from 87.50 m downhole, including two visible gold-bearing veins that gave 30.42 g/t Au over 0.30 m, and 32.99 g/t Au over 0.80 m. MH-21-234, collared 60 m northwest of MH-19-75, gave 30.59 g/t Au over 2.75 m (within 4.80 m of 17.56 g/t Au). MH-21-243, collared 80 m south-southwest of MH-19-75, gave 32.72 g/t Au over 1.70 m (within 9.20 m of 6.70 g/t Au). These results give the 75 Zone a minimum 100 m north-south strike extent and open to depth from surface. Drilling will continue in the area until the end of the season.

Eastern Trend

One drill continues to infill / extend gold mineralization in the Lower Eastern Trend, and the barge-based drilling has commenced in the Upper Eastern Trend / Footwall Splay targets. Results from the Eastern Trend and the 75 Zone, up to September 28, 2021, are shown in the table below.

Results to-date indicate good continuity with high-grade intersections in the Lower Eastern Trend, including holes MH-21-215 and 229. MH-21-229, designed to test the up-dip continuity of an interpreted high-grade ore shoot 20 m above MH-20-98. MH-20-98 intersected 4.16 g/t Au / 5.65 m including 8.21 g/t Au / 2.50 m at a downhole depth of 296 m. MH-21-229 intersected 18.41 g/t Au over 2.10 m (within 5.10 m of 7.64 g/t Au), showing good continuity in the area that has received limited drilling. MH-21-215 cut two zones of mineralization including a high-grade zone of 36.15 g/t Au over 0.35 m (within 2.35 m of 20.39 g/t Au), and a lower zone of 2.01 g/t Au over 2.70 m with considerable up-plunge potential. At least 5,000 m remain to be completed in this area this year.

About the Moosehead Gold Project

The 100%-owned Moosehead Gold Project is located along the Trans-Canada Highway in north-central Newfoundland, on the same structural trend as the advanced Valentine Lake Project (Marathon Gold), and adjacent to New Found Gold’s Queensway Project. Both the Moosehead and Queensway projects are targeting high-grade, turbidite-hosted, Fosterville-type gold mineralization. At least five zones of significant gold bearing mineralization have been identified to date at Moosehead with multiple high-priority targets, independent of the known zones, remaining to be tested. In Phases 1 to 5, the Company completed 23,378 m (106 holes). In Phase 6, the Company has completed 31,000 m in 170 holes (up to MH-21-280) of the 50,000 m drill program.

All core samples submitted for assay were saw cut by Sokoman personnel with one-half submitted for assay and one-half retained for reference. Samples were delivered in sealed bags directly to the lab by Sokoman personnel. Samples, including duplicates, blanks and standards, were submitted to Eastern Analytical Ltd. in Springdale, Newfoundland for gold analysis. Eastern Analytical Ltd. is an accredited assay lab that conforms to the requirements of ISO/IEC 17025. Samples with possible visible gold were submitted for total pulp metallics and gravimetric finish. All other samples were analyzed by standard fire assay methods. Total pulp metallic analysis includes: the whole sample is crushed to -10 mesh; then pulverized to 95% -150 mesh. The total sample is weighed and screened to 150 mesh; the +150 mesh fraction is fire assayed for Au, and a 30 g subsample of the -150 mesh fraction is fire assayed for Au; with a calculated weighted average of total Au in the sample reported as well. One blank and one industry approved standard for every twenty samples submitted, is included in the sample stream. Random duplicates of selected samples are analyzed in addition to the in-house standard and duplicate policies of Eastern Analytical Ltd. All reported assays are uncut.

Sokoman And Benton Confirm First High-Grade Lithium Discovery In Newfoundland At The Golden Hope Project

Composite grab sampling returns 2.37% Li2O

St. John’s, NL, September 16, 2021 – Sokoman Minerals Corp. (TSXV: SIC) (OTCQB: SICNF) (“Sokoman”) and Benton Resources Inc. (TSXV: BEX) (“Benton”) (together, “the Alliance”) are pleased to announce analyses for 35 of 58 follow-up samples from the recently discovered swarm of Lithium-bearing pegmatite dikes on the Golden Hope Joint Venture Project in southwestern Newfoundland. The 35 grab and chip samples were collected over a 1 km2 area over the swarm of poorly-exposed pegmatite and aplite dykes. The follow-up sampling has confirmed that the pegmatites carry significant Lithium values, the first significant occurrence of Lithium documented in the province of Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada.

31.4% of the samples gave values >1% Li2O
1. The Lithium-bearing samples were taken over a poorly-exposed pegmatite swarm covering 1 km2
2. Additional results are pending (23 samples) along a 1 km strike of pegmatites
3. Lithium, Beryllium, Cesium, Rubidium and Tantalum values were located 2 km to the west of the initial discovery

Of the 35 samples, 11 gave values greater than 1% Li2O with three greater than 2% Li2O, and a high of 2.37% Li2O. The dominant Lithium-bearing mineral appears to be spodumene (LiAl(SiO3)2) which occurs as clusters of elongated prismatic crystals up to 5-cm-long in a grey-white matrix of glassy quartz and feldspar and a pale-green to white mica (see photo of sample 361716). Multiple samples from the aplite dikes give highly-anomalous Cesium (17 ppm to 508 ppm Cs), Rubidium (226 ppm to 1310 ppm Rb) and Tantalum (5 ppm to 179 ppm Ta), typical of evolved pegmatite swarms. Samples 361715-718 were a series of 0.5 m2 composite samples from the discovery outcrop that measures 10m x 3m and is 100% pegmatite. The dike margins are overburden covered and actual width of the dike is not known. All other samples were taken over the broader mineralized area. The following table gives the results for the composite samples and other higher-grade Li values from the area.

**Spodumene crystals in Sample 361716 (1.82% Li2O)**

The Alliance also discovered high-grade Beryllium values with 2 grab samples grading >5000 ppm Be, with others ranging from 6 ppm to >5000 ppm Be, with associated anomalous Lithium, Cesium, Rubidium and Tantalum values. These samples, mineralogy unknown, are located approximately 2 km to the west of the Li discovery, providing further evidence that it is an evolved pegmatite system. Additional samples, taken up to 1,000 m along strike, have been submitted for analysis and are pending.

**Samples were submitted to Actlabs in Ancaster, Ontario for analysis by Sodium Peroxide Fusion ICPOES + ICPMS.**

Benton’s President and CEO Stephen Stares states: “The discovery of this new Lithium, Beryllium, Cesium, Tantalum and Rubidium mineralization in Newfoundland continues to show the Island’s vast potential. Although this is the first discovery of Lithium in Newfoundland, the geological environment and setting to discover these types of large systems have already been proven and discovered in the Appalachian belt. This includes the important deposits held by Piedmont Lithium Inc in the Carolinas, eastern US, as well as the geologically equivalent Avalonia Project being advanced by Ganfeng Lithium in the Caledonides of Ireland. Benton and Sokoman will use these deposits for synergies and modeling as we advance this new discovery towards drilling.”
Sokoman’s President and CEO Tim Froude adds: “We are very pleased to have unequivocally verified high-grade Lithium mineralization at Golden Hope, the first such significant occurrence in Newfoundland. While still early days, significant Lithium mineralization in similar geological settings, elsewhere in the greater Appalachian belt, bodes well for the potential of this discovery to be of significance to our shareholders. While continuing to explore the pegmatites for Li and associated elements, the claims were originally staked for gold and we are presently processing and merging our recently-flown airborne data with pre-existing data to highlight gold targets on the 750 sq km property.”

The Alliance has completed a 5,709 line-km Heliborne, High-Resolution, Aeromagnetic & Matrix Digital VLF-EM Survey, flown by Terraquest Ltd. The survey will provide the structural/ lithological setting to help identify gold-bearing structure extensions, as well as any unrecognized structures including those potentially related to the Lithium-bearing pegmatites.
