<\/p>\n\n

Montreal, February 20, 2020. Midland Exploration Inc. (\u201c Midland<\/strong> \u201d) ( TSX-V: MD<\/strong> ) is pleased to announce the commencement of a new drilling campaign on the Maritime-Cadillac property The Maritime-Cadillac property is a joint venture between Agnico Eagle Mines Limited (51%) (\u201c Agnico Eagle<\/strong> \u201d), and Midland (49%), is located along the Cadillac Break.<\/p>\n\n

<\/div>\n\n

This new drilling program will include a drill hole totalling 850 meters in length, designed to test the down-plunge extension of the Dyke East zone at a vertical depth of 600 meters.<\/p>\n\n

<\/div>\n\n

Another hole, totalling 400 meters in length, will be drilled to test two parallel gold-bearing zones (the South and North zones), previously intersected in a drill hole south of the Maritime-Cadillac zone, in a historically underexplored area. A second phase of drilling totalling 400 meters has been planned contingent on the results of the first phase.<\/p>\n\n

<\/div>\n\n

This drilling campaign totalling 1,650 metres is set to begin in the coming weeks.<\/p>\n\n

<\/div>\n\n

Dyke East zone<\/h4>\n\n
<\/div>\n\n

The proposed drilling program for the Dyke East zone includes an 800-metre-long drill hole targeting the depth extension (at 600 metres vertical depth) down-plunge from a few historical drill holes that yielded gold-bearing intervals over significant widths. Drill hole 141-10-23 yielded a grade of 1.7 g\/t Au over 37.85 meters, from 311.25 to 349.10 meters depth, including 12.6 g\/t Au over 1.5 meter, from 329.0 to 330.5 meters depth. In addition, drill hole 141-11-31, testing more than 100 meters below hole 141-10-23, intersected an interval grading 1.7 g\/t Au over 46.4 meters, from 399.0 to 445.4 meters depth, including 21.0 g\/t Au over 1.2 meters, from 412.8 to 414.0 meters depth(see press releases by Midland dated May 27, 2010 and July 19, 2011).<\/em><\/p>\n\n

<\/div>\n\n

Note that the Dyke East zone is characterized by a felsic dyke swarm hosted in schists of the Pich\u00e9 Group.<\/p>\n\n

<\/div>\n\n

Area south of the Maritime-Cadillac zone<\/h4>\n\n
<\/div>\n\n

A 400-meter-long drill hole is proposed to test a significant gap located between the Maritime-Cadillac zone and an area previously drill-tested by Agnico Eagle in 2006-2007 in the south part of the property, where gold-bearing intervals grading 9.4 g\/t Au over 1.1 meter and 8.4 g\/t Au over 1.1 meter (true thicknesses) were reported.<\/p>\n\n

<\/div>\n\n

The target area is located approximately 400 meters south of the Maritime-Cadillac zone and is proximal to a structural feature (fold nose). The drill hole is designed to test two known zones (the South and North zones) at vertical depths of 100 and 200 meters respectively.<\/p>\n\n

<\/div>\n\n

Cautionary statement<\/p>\n\n

<\/div>\n\n

The true thickness of drill intercepts reported in this press release cannot be determined with the information currently available; intervals are therefore reported in core length.<\/p>\n\n
