Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada – August 25, 2021 – Cross River Ventures Corp. (CSE: CRVC) (FSE: C6R) (Company) is pleased to provide shareholders with an update on the progress of exploration work for 2021 on its portfolio of gold projects in northwestern Ontario, Canada.

The Summer Phase 1 exploration programs on the company’s Manitou, Shabu and Dent-Jackson projects have been completed. Rock samples from outcrops, floats, and historic mine dumps all returned high grade gold on projects, including:

– Shabu: 126 grams per ton of gold (g/t Au), 8.28 g/t Au and 2.73 g/t Au

– Dent-Jackson: 17.8 g/t Au, 13.2 g/t Au and 8.43 g/t Au

– Manitou: 26.7 g / t au, 24.6 g / t au and 15,5 g / t au

Mineralization is associated with open, productive formations that are little explored. The Cross River technical team is evaluating these results and has a planned action plan for further exploration work.

Manitou – Phase 1 Summary and Results

Thunder Bay’s Bayside Geoscience Inc. has been selected by Cross River Ventures to conduct exploration mapping, prospecting and sampling of the Manitou property in the Eagle-Wabigoon-Manitou Lake Greenstone Belt, 25 miles south of Dryden. The field team ran a 16-day program on the recently expanded Manitou gold assets (6,750 ha), focused on the evaluation of gold-bearing structures identified by the company’s data collection. The field program was focused on the southwest portion of the property, which includes the Reliance Shear Trend and the Queen Alexandria-Bird Island Trend (see company news release on May 13, 2021).

A total of 83 rock samples were sent to ALS laboratories for analysis and returned gold values ​​ranging from minus 26.70 g/t AU. Table 1 shows the results of analysis of rock samples with a grade of >0.1 g/t Au. As part of the field programme, all interesting historical events were explored and evaluated, notably the Queen Alexandria Shaft, for which historical gold production has been recorded since 1904 (MDI52F07SW00008). Phase 1 sampling identified high-grade gold in the area and float samples collected from the debris around the historic shaft returned 26.70 g/t Au, 24.60 g/t Au and 15.50 g/t Au. There are no records of historical drilling in the vicinity of the Queen Alexandria Shaft. Field work also confirmed the presence of open northeast trending shear zones associated with gold and identified several areas of interest for further evaluation. See Table 1 and Figure 1 for sample locations and selected analytical results.

Shabu – Phase 1 Summary and Results

Bayside Geoscience conducted a 14-day prospecting, mapping and sampling program at the Shabu Gold property in the Birch-Uchi Greenstone Belt, 70 km northeast of Red Lake City. The program was designed to focus on historical events, improving mapping on the property, and prospecting areas with no documented historical data on the property. The teams managed to cover a wide area and successfully trace all known historical events, as well as discover new areas of gold mineralization.

A total of 191 rock samples were sent to ALS laboratories for analysis and returned gold values ​​ranging from zero to 126 g/t AU. Table 2 shows analysis results from rock samples with a grade of >0.1 g/t Au. Highlights of the program include: 1) the identification of a new zone of mineralization that has not yet been documented, consisting of 2.73 g/t Au and 1.51 g/t Au of heavily leafy, acarite-converting groups, and 2) Further tests are included. The high-grade Wayne Flint Rock Mines returned 126 g/t Au, 8.28 g/t Au and 1.61 g/t Au in east–west trending quartz veins. The significant analytical results are shown in Table 2, and the sample locations are shown in Figure 2.

Dent-Jackson Phase 1 Summary and Results

Bayside also conducted a 7-day prospecting, mapping and sampling program at the Dent-Jackson Gold property in the Birch-Uchy Greenstone Belt, 60 km northeast of Ear Falls Township. This program was intended to further examine historical high-grade events and expand on known mineralization, in particular the Caribou Wayne and East Little Woman Lake (ELWL) gold events (discussed in a January 28, 2021 news release) Had to do. Field teams discovered evidence of extensive historical surface work (debris removal, excavations, pits, etc.) in the area.

A total of 113 rock samples were sent to ALS laboratories for analysis and returned gold values ​​ranging from zero to 17.8 g/t AU. Table 3 shows analysis results from rock samples with a grade of >0.1 g/t Au. Highlights of samples collected during the program include 13.2 g/t and 1.63 g/t Au from outcrops and float boulders in the ELWL event. Mineralization is open in both areas. Important analytical results are listed in Table 3, with sampling locations shown in Figure 3.

more work

Bayside completed four weeks of work on the 12,000-acre McVicar Project. The results of sampling/analysis are still pending. Additional exams include the 60-day GeoProbe program at McVicar. Lidar data was obtained and used for interpretation. The next field program will take place in Muscooch from the end of August, followed by a field program in Year Falls, starting in the fall.

analytical method

All samples from 2021 included in this announcement have been sent to the ALS Geochemistry Laboratories in Thunder Bay, Ontario, for analysis. Samples were prepared using a standard PREP-31 rock/core package and analyzed for gold using a standard fire assay and ICP-AES (ALS code: Au-ICP21). Samples greater than 10.0 g/t Au were further analyzed by fire assay with gravimetric closure (ALS code: Au-GRA21).

Note: Grab samples are selective in nature and may not be representative of the average grade or type of mineral. However, they will be used to set additional exploration targets on the properties.
