Montreal, September 2, 2021. Midland Exploration Inc. (” Midland<\/strong> “) ( TSX-V: MD<\/strong> ) is pleased to announce that new mineralized zones were intersected near surface in drill hole on its Mythril Cu-Mo-Au-Ag project, wholly owned by Midland and located in Eeyou Istchee James Bay, Quebec. Midland discovered Mythril by prospecting in late 2018 and concluded a strategic investment with BHP Canada Inc. (\u201c BHP<\/strong> \u201d) during the spring of 2019 totalling $5.85 million for copper exploration in Quebec.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The latest drilling campaign completed at the end of June consisted in seven (7) drill holes totalling 1,647 metres. This program was mainly designed to test new geological targets identified through 3D modelling. The model outlined several untested areas characterized by chargeability highs from the induced polarization (IP) survey, located near the contact with conglomerates.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Drill hole MYT-21-38, collared on line 5+00E, tested a lateral gap of approximately 300 metres between drill holes MYT-19-01 and MYT-19-03. Drill hole MYT-21-38 intersected a mineralized zone from 56.50 to 85.00 meters grading 0.59% Cu, 0.05 g\/t Au, 1.87 g\/t Ag and 0.025% Mo (0.74% eq. Cu*) over 28.50 meters<\/strong> including 1.02% Cu, 0.09 g\/t Au, 2.62 g\/t Ag and 0.048% Mo (1.29% eq. Cu*) over 10.50 meters<\/strong> from 56.50 to 67.00 meters. This interval includes two high-grade zones that returned values of 8.73% Cu, 1.29 g\/t Au, 22.4 g\/t Ag and 0.87% Mo (13.2% eq. Cu*) over 0.50 meter<\/strong> from 57.80 to 58.30 meters as well as 3.50% Cu, 0.11 g\/t Au, 6.17 g\/t Ag and 0.04% Mo (3.77% eq. Cu*) over 1.20 meters<\/strong> from 59.80 to 61.00 meters. This zone is also included within a larger interval grading 0.25% eq. Cu* over 104.60 meters<\/strong> from 18.0 to 122.6 meters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Drill hole MYT-21-39, collared on line 6+00E, intersected a Cu-Au zone grading 1.34% Cu, 3.14 g\/t Au, 10.14 g\/t Ag and 0.005% Mo (3.55% eq. Cu*) over 3.10 meters between 227.60 and 230.70 meters<\/strong> including 2.32% Cu, 13.75 g\/t Au, 40.3 g\/t Ag and 0.002% Mo (11.90% eq. Cu*) over 0.70 meters<\/strong> from 230.00 to 230.70 meters. This interval is included within a large interval that yielded 0.25% Cueq* over 59.70 meters<\/strong> between 171.0 and 230.70 meters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Drill hole MYT-21-40, collared on line 8+00E, intersected a zone grading 0.63% Cueq* over 5.0 meters<\/strong> while a second zone returned 0 .53% eq. Cu* over 3.75 meters<\/strong> from 96.75 to 100.50 meters. From 146.50 to 152.00 metres, another mineralized interval graded 0.25% eq. Cu* over 5.50 meters<\/strong> . In addition, a gold-bearing interval was also intersected in the same drill hole, grading5.95 g\/t Au over 1.50 meters<\/strong> from 192.00 to 193.50 meters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Drill hole MYT-21-41 (line 10+50E) intersected an interval grading 0.40% eq. Cu* over 5.0 meters<\/strong> from 72.00 to 77.00 metres, including a zone at 1.82% eq. Cu* over 0.75 meters<\/strong> from 72.00 to 72.75 meters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Mythril copper-molybdenum-gold-silver (Cu-Mo-Au-Ag) zone consists of a series of mineralized subcropping boulder fields and Cu-Mo-Au-Ag showings occurring now over a distance of more than 3 kilometres. Located about 7 kilometres south of the Trans-Ta\u00efga road and hosted in Archean rocks of the Superior Province, a first nine days of prospecting in 2018 highlighted the discovery of 11 new surface Cu-Mo-Au-Ag and 2 molybdenum-only showings, yielding values such as 2.74% Cu, 0.44 g\/t Au, 0.06% Mo and 24.3 g\/t Ag over 2.7 meters<\/strong>in a channel on the Celeborn showing Fifty-seven (57) grab samples from mineralized outcrops distributed over a lateral extent of 2 kilometres yielded average values of 2.03% Cu, 0.48 g\/t Au, 0.18% Mo and 18.3 g\/t Ag<\/strong> . Overall, one hundred sixteen (116) mineralized boulders were found, yielding an average of 1.92% Cu, 0.87 g\/t Au, 0.11% Mo and 20.7 g\/t Ag<\/strong> .<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Midland\u2019s team is currently back in the field and is starting a prospecting program on the Mythril project and also on new regional targets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Quality control<\/strong>
Exploration program design and interpretation of results are performed by qualified persons employing a Quality Assurance\/Quality Control program consistent with industry best practices, including the use of standards and blanks with every 20 samples. Rock samples on the project are assayed for gold by standard 30-gram fire-assaying with inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectroscopy (ICP-AES; Au-ICP21) or gravimetric finish (Au-GRA21) at ALS Minerals laboratories in Vancouver, British Columbia. All samples are also analyzed for multi-elements using the four-acid ICP\u2013AES method (ME-ICP61), also at ALS Minerals laboratories in Vancouver, British Columbia. Samples that exceed 1% copper, zinc, molybdenum, or nickel are reanalyzed by four-acid ICP-AES optimized for high grades.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
