Goldstorm Metals Prepares For Upcoming 2024 Exploration Program At Electrum And Crown Properties, Located In Golden Triangle Region Of British Columbia

(MENAFN- Newsfile Corp) Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - May 21, 2024) - Goldstorm Metals Corp . (TSXV: GSTM) (FSE: B2U) (OTC Pink: GSTMF) (" Goldstorm " or " the Company ") is pleased to announce that preparation is underway for the 2024 exploration program, to include a minimum of 1,000 meters of drilling (the "Program") on its 100% owned Electrum and Crown gold and silver projects located within British Columbia's Golden Triangle region. The Electrum and Crown properties are situated to the immediate south of Newmont Corporation's Brucejack Mine and Seabridge Gold Inc.'s KSM Property and lie within a mineral belt trend host to over 80 million ounces of gold and over 17 billion pounds of copper .

Ken Konkin, P.Geo. President & CEO of Goldstorm Metals comments : "Field crews have been mobilized to the area in preparation for the 2024 Exploration Program. The focus will be to follow up on last year's extremely positive precious and base metal results from the reconnaissance sampling and drilling programs. Our crews will begin with the Electrum project, then move on to the larger Crown property later in the summer. The drilling plan at Electrum will attempt to expand the known gold-silver hydrothermal stockwork breccia system laterally and at depth. Reconnaissance crews will also further evaluate and trace the numerous newly discovered zones throughout both claim groups. In the southern portion of the Electrum Property, we will focus on expanding areas with high-grade gold and silver intercepts within a sheeted vein complex, peripheral to a dome-shaped hydrothermal stockwork gold and silver breccia system. From the 11 drill holes that tested Electrum targets last year, nine holes targeted the high-grade gold and silver parallel sheeted vein complex with coarse-grained native gold occurring in drill hole EL-23-08 at 146.5 m depth over 0.5 m that carried 75.30 g/t gold with 19.27 g/t silver yet a much higher grade intercept was encounter near surface in the same hole at 12.0-12.5 m depth that yielded 233.50 g/t gold with 756.0 g/t silver over 0.50 m. The goal is to continue the discovery and development of high-grade precious and base metal targets, in addition to expanding large intrusive related bulk-tonnage disseminated/veinlet and porphyry type targets, similar to nearby discoveries along trend to the north including Treaty Creek-KSM as well as the Valley of the Kings and West Zone Deposits of the Brucejack system."

Electrum 2023 Drilling Program Summary

During the 2023 exploration season, Goldstorm Metals completed an 11-hole drill program totaling 2,581 meters at Electrum. This program was successful in intercepting both high-grade vein-type and porphyry style gold-silver mineralization (see press releases dated October 4th, 2023, and November 14, 2023). Building on these results, future drilling is expected to target the expansive bulk-tonnage gold-silver hydrothermal breccia stockwork system encountered in holes EZ-23-01 and EZ-23-02, and the high-grade gold-silver intercepts observed in holes EZ-23-08 and EZ-23-11.

• All assay values are uncut and intervals reflect drilled intercept lengths.
• HQ diameter core samples were sawn in half and typically sampled at standard 1.5 m intervals.
• True widths have not been determined as the mineralized body remains open in all directions. Further drilling is required to determine the mineralized body orientation and true widths.

Crown 2023 Program Summary

In 2023, field crews conducted exploration activities on the Crown Property, including an extensive reconnaissance sampling effort that led to the discovery of four new mineralized zones. These zones, located on the Orion Concession (the Copernicus Zone) and the Fairweather Concession (the Launch, Galileo, and Triton Zones), produced very positive sampling results.

The findings from these zones are as follows:

• The Copernicus Zone: a continuous channel sample line comprised of six samples (OR-23-02), that averaged 0.14 g/t gold, 57.0 g/t silver, 1.71% copper, 0.015% cobalt , and 0.15% zinc over 5.15 meters (m) , (see Company press release dated November 27, 2023);
• The Launch Zone: representative chip sampling within this area returned 1.95 g/t gold, 15.09 g/t silver, 0.12% copper over 3.0 m and 4.6 g/t gold, 118.5 g/t silver, 0.83% copper over 2.0 m ;
• The Galileo Zone: a grab sample returned 1.18 g/t gold, 2,656 g/t silver, 0.55% copper, 7.65% lead, and 5.03% zinc ;
• The Triton Zone: a grab sample returned 8.3 g/t gold and 48.8 g/t silver , (see Company press release dated January 24, 2024).

During the upcoming 2024 field season, Goldstorm Metals will continue to focus on developing high-grade precious and base-metal targets and plan for the potential start-up of the first ever drill program on the Copernicus Zone. Details of this program will be finalized ahead of the 2024 drilling season.
