Thunder Bay, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - June 25, 2020) - White Metal Resources Corp. (TSXV: WHM) ("White Metal" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has signed a binding letter of intent ("LOI") with prospector Melvin Stewart (the "Optionor") in regards to the option acquisition of the Tower Stock Gold Project (the "Project" or the "Property"), located in Conmee Township about 40 km west-northwest of the port city of Thunder Bay, Ontario. The Project currently covers approximately 2,010 ha comprising both unpatented and patented mining claims.

Under the LOI, White Metal has the option to acquire 100% of the Project subject to a 2% underlying royalty on some of the claims comprising the Property (the "Underlying Royalty") by issuing to the Optionor 1,200,000 common shares of the Company and making cash payments totalling $145,000 over a period of three (3) years. More specifically, details of the three year option are:

• On receipt of regulatory approval : $25,000 cash payment, issuance of 300,000 shares.
• 1^st Anniversary: $30,000 cash payment, issuance of 300,000 shares.
• 2^nd Anniversary: $40,000 cash payment, issuance of 300,000 shares.
• 3^rd Anniversary: $50,000 cash payment, issuance of 300,000 shares.

The Optionor has reserved a 1% net smelter returns royalty on certain claims that are not in conflict with the Underlying Royalty and the Optionor will be given a 2% net smelter returns royalty on additional claims that the Company has staked (collectively the "Optionor NSR"). The Company has the right to purchase 50% of such Optionor NSR for $1 million and advanced royalty payments of $5,000 per year (payable in cash or shares of the Company at its option) are payable on the Optionor NSR commencing on the fourth anniversary of the LOI.

Commented Michael Stares, President and CEO of White Metal, "This is a great opportunity for the Company to explore an advanced-stage, drill-ready gold property in Ontario which has been dormant for some eight years. With excellent access and infrastructure, great geology, very encouraging intercepts of gold from historical drilling, and two historical mineral resource estimates, we begin our work on a strong foundation. Once initial data compilation, geo-modelling, and interpretation and targeting is complete, we are planning to implement a program of drill core re-logging and surface geophysics with an aim to be drilling by August."

Mineralization on the Property is described as syenite-associated disseminated gold and similar to that found in the Kirkland Lake and Malartic gold camps and at the Young-Davidson Mine (Alamos Gold). Mineralization hosted by established operations is not necessarily indicative of mineralization hosted on the Company's Property. Pyrite, the main sulphide mineral, is generally an indication of anomalous concentrations of gold and typically occurs as disseminations in volcanic flows, tuffs and breccias, polymictic conglomerates, and feldspar porphyries, syenite intrusives and brecciated syenite associated with the Tower Mountain Intrusive Complex ("TMIC"). Historical exploration work has defined three gold zones to date; the U-V Zone, 04-36 Zone, and A-D/31 Bench Zone (referred to herein as the Bench Zone). The 04/36 and Bench zones are located about 500 m southwest and 800 m southeast of the U-V Zone, respectively.

Historical Estimate

Historical mineral resource estimates, completed in compliance with National Instrument 43-101 ("NI 43-101") at the time of publication, were completed on the U-V Zone (Caracle Creek International Consulting, 2006 - published) and on the Bench Zone (Revolver Resources, 2013 - unpublished). In 2006, Caracle Creek International Consulting Inc. completed an NI 43-101 Maiden Mineral Resource Estimate and Technical Report on the U-V Zone (Table 1). Historical reports, modelling and interpretation suggest numerous opportunities to expand areas of low- and high-grade gold at the U-V and Bench zones and for expansion of the 04/36 Zone. The Company is also reviewing other exploration opportunities around the TMIC and in the region.

The Company is treating the tonnages and grades reported in Table 1 as historical mineral resources. This historical estimate was prepared using categories and definitions consistent with CIM Definition Standards of Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves at the time of completion of the "estimate", as outlined in National Instrument 43-101, Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects ("NI 43-101"), a qualified person has not done sufficient work to classify the historical estimates as current mineral resources and therefore the Company is not treating the historical estimates as current mineral resources. Investors are cautioned that the historical estimates do not mean or imply that economic deposits exist on the Property. The Company has not undertaken any independent investigation of the historical estimates or other information contained in this press release nor has it independently analyzed the results of the previous exploration work in order to verify the accuracy of the information. The Company believes that the historical estimate and other technical information contained in this news release are relevant to continuing exploration on the Property.

A summary of drill core assays from selected historical diamond drill holes is provided in Table 2. It is also important to note that a multitude of historical drill holes ended in gold mineralization and a selected list is provided in Table 3. Historical exploration data and information provided in Tables 2 and 3 has not been verified by a Qualified Person.

With at least 2 km of potential strike between the U-V Zone gold deposit in the northwest and the last recorded exploration drilling (TM-07-58: 6.0 metres @ 5.42 g/t Au) to the southeast, the Company believes there is ample opportunity to build both low- and high-grade gold resources, to expand current mineral resources, and to make additional new discoveries.

Technical information in this news release has been reviewed and approved by Dr. Scott Jobin-Bevans (P.Geo.),

Vice President Exploration and a Director of White Metal, who is a Qualified Person under the definitions established by the National Instrument 43-101.
