VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / May 2, 2023 / SNOWLINE GOLD CORP. (CSE:SGD)(OTCQB:SNWGF) (the "Company" or "Snowline") is pleased to announce approval to list on the TSX Venture Exchange (the "TSX-V") following satisfaction of regulatory requirements. The common shares of the Company will be de-listed from the Canadian Securities Exchange at the close on Wednesday, May 3^rd and commence trading on the TSX-V under the symbol SGD at the open on Thursday, May 4^th. The move is set to improve Company visibility to domestic and international capital markets, providing a means of expanding its investor base and further realising the value of the gold discoveries within Snowline's Yukon Territory property portfolio.

"We are looking forward to working with the TSX-V and a broader community of potential investors as our company continues to grow," said Matt Roma, Snowline's CFO. "In addition, we would like to thank the Canadian Securities Exchange for providing a superb foundation for our efficient launch along with the market platform that allowed us to make Snowline what it is today."

As part of the TSX-V listing requirements, Snowline will complete an updated NI 43-101 technical report on its Rogue project in the Yukon, Canada within 120 days of listing. The most recent technical report on the property (Effective date: December 10, 2020) was written prior to the creation of Snowline through a reverse takeover arrangement that secured ownership of Rogue and other Yukon properties. Since commencement of trading on the Canadian Securities Exchange as SGD on March 1, 2021, Snowline has significantly grown and advanced Rogue on the back of a major gold discovery, which will be detailed in the updated technical report. Later in this release, Snowline provides a summary of relevant activities completed to date.

ROGUE PROJECT - 2023 EXPLORATION PLANS AND BUDGET

Snowline is preparing for a 15,000+ metre drill program for the 2023 field season at Rogue. Three drills are currently winterized at Valley zone on the Rogue property. The company plans to initiate drilling near the end of May and to have all three drills turning by early June. Approximately 10,000+ metres will be allocated to a Phase III drill program advancing the geological understanding of Valley and further delineating the at-surface, high-grade (1 g/t Au to > 4 g/t Au) zone encountered in the 2022 drill campaign, while testing, where practical, for potential extensions of the high-grade gold system at depth. Another 2,000+ metres are allocated to a Phase II drill program at Gracie, with the goals of locating the Gracie intrusion and consistent gold mineralization within it. The remaining 3,000+ metres of drilling are allocated to Phase I drill programs at targets Snowline deems to have strong geological merit to host strong zones of mineralization. Reduced-intrusion related gold systems often occur in clusters, and the Company has identified multiple targets of this type in the vicinity of Valley. The drilling amounts above may be subject to refinement based on exploration results as the season progresses.

Regional stream sediment and extensive soil sampling will be initiated in early June to assess targets acquired through property expansions since inception. This early start will provide time during the field season for follow-up and potential Phase I drilling on areas with promising results.

Large-scale and target-scale geophysical programs are also proposed for the 2023 field season, building on Snowline and historical datasets that have proven useful in highlighting alteration, structures and intrusive bodies in exploration at Rogue to date.

Ongoing environmental baseline studies at Valley and on the broader Rogue project will continue and will be complemented by progressive reclamation of work sites.

The planned allocation of funds for the 2023 exploration program at Rogue is as follows:

Additional work, including Phase I drilling, is planned on other Snowline projects outside of Rogue during the 2023 season. Details will be outlined in a future release.

WORK COMPLETED AT ROGUE SINCE MOST RECENT NI 43-101 TECHNICAL DOCUMENT

"What we have accomplished as a team in two short field seasons at Rogue is nothing short of remarkable," said Thomas Branson, Snowline's Vice President of Exploration. "Through Snowline's brand of principled, values-driven exploration, we advanced a set of prospecting discoveries and a regional conceptual model to the drill discovery and partial delineation of a significant greenfields gold discovery. We will continue to add to our understanding of Rogue's Valley discovery and the broader Rogue project with the dual goals of expanding on our known discoveries at Rogue and making additional discoveries. As the 2023 field season approaches, we are gearing up for an active and exciting year with at least three drills turning and plenty of boots on the ground."

Staking

• Significantly increased the physical footprint of our 100%-owned Rogue Project in 2021 and 2022 from 121 claims covering about 2,439 ha to 2,547 claims covering approximately 52,396 ha, a >2,100% increase in project size since Snowline's inception.

2021 Field Season

• Drilling of four diamond drill holes for 804 m at Valley, resulting in the drill discovery of the Valley reduced intrusion related gold system (RIRGS) with downhole intersections including 1.25 g/t Au over 168.7 m (V-21-003; see Snowline news release dated February 10, 2022) near the edge of a newly recognized, kilometer-scale Fort Knox-style intrusion

• Geological mapping and collection of 174 rock samples primarily at Valley
• Collection of Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) photogrammetry over the Valley, Gracie and Old Cabin areas for geological mapping and desktop studies.

2022 Field Season

• Construction of 50-person Forks Camp to support exploration activities on Rogue, Einarson and additional nearby prospects
• Extension of Forks airstrip to 1,000 m in length following amendment of Class 3 Quartz Mining Land Use Permit
• Collection of 136 rock samples across the Rogue project

• Collection of 357 soil samples
• Geological mapping at Gracie, LM, Old Cabin and Ramsey zones on the Rogue Property
• Commencement of environmental survey work at Valley including monthly water quality monitoring, hydrology, pre-disturbance botanical inventories and wildlife surveying, providing a baseline of knowledge for future advanced stage permitting

• Initiation of metallurgical test work.

Table 1 highlights drill assay results from 36 holes (31 at Valley, 5 at Gracie) completed by Snowline during the 2021 and 2022 field seasons at the Rogue Project, Yukon. Results are considered preliminary, with full updates, including the use of metallic screen analyses (the optimum method when visible gold is present), where analysed, available in the technical report. The results are not expected to materially change. Many of the drill holes targeted and intersected a wide, through-going and deep corridor of sheeted quartz vein Au-Bi-Te mineralization within the Valley intrusion. Unusually high gold grades for an RIRGS were intersected from surface, such as 2.55 g/t Au over 318.8 m including 4.14 g/t Au over 108 m in V-22-010 (see Snowline news release dated October 12, 2022). These intersections exhibit a high degree of gold grade continuity within and between holes.

ABOUT ROGUE

Rogue's Valley Zone is a newly discovered, bulk tonnage style, reduced intrusion-related gold system (RIRGS), with geological similarities to multi-million-ounce deposits currently in production like Kinross's Fort Knox Mine in Alaska and Victoria Gold's Eagle Mine in the Yukon. Early drill results demonstrate unusually high gold grades for such a system, present near surface across drill intersections of hundreds of metres. Gold is associated with bismuthinite and telluride minerals hosted in sheeted quartz vein arrays within and along the margins of a one-kilometer-scale, mid-Cretaceous aged Mayo-series intrusion. Valley is an early-stage exploration project without a resource estimate, and while initial results are encouraging, the presence or absence of an economically viable orebody cannot be determined until significant additional work is completed.

The Rogue Project area hosts multiple intrusions similar to Valley along with widespread gold anomalism in stream sediment, soil and rock samples. Elsewhere, RIRGS deposits are known to occur in clusters. The Rogue Project is thus considered by the Company to have district-scale potential for additional reduced intrusion-related gold systems.
