Grizzly Reports on High Grade Battery Metal Ag-Pb-Zn Samples Obtained from the Historical Crown Point Mine Area

Greenwood, British Columbia and Edmonton, Alberta--(Newsfile Corp. - February 6, 2023) - Grizzly Discoveries Inc. (TSXV: GZD) (FSE: G6H) (OTCQB: GZDIF) ("Grizzly" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has recently received analytical results for 19 selective rock grab samples collected during late 2022 from the historical Silver (Ag)-Lead (Pb)-Zinc (Zn) Crown Point Mine area which is about 10 km north of the town of Rock Creek in the west-central portion of the Company's Greenwood area mineral claims in south-central British Columbia (BC). The Crown Point and Leona Group historical mines are hosted in Late Paleozoic Anarchist volcanic and sedimentary rocks with mineralization consisting of pyrite-galena-sphalerite in quartz veins and pods associated with northwest and northeast trending faults related to the eastern edge of the Rock Creek Graben.

Highlights

• A total of 19 new selective rock grab and composite rock grab samples from outcrop collected from the Crown Point to Leona historical mines area, with 9 of 19 rock grab samples from outcropping mineralization yielding a range from 23.8 grams per tonne (g/T) silver (Ag) up to 429 g/T (or 12.51 ounces per ton [opt] Ag) (Table 1, Figures 1 to 3).

• Six (6) of the 7 new selective rock grab samples from the historical Crown Point Mine area yielded from 25.2 g/T Ag (0.74 opt Ag) up to 94.3 g/T Ag (2.75 opt Ag), with all 6 samples yielding significant percent level lead (Pb) and zinc (Zn) with 1.52% up to 5.86% Pb and 1.51 up to 6.42% Zn. One of the six samples yielded 1.305 g/T gold (Au) shown in Table 1 and on Figure 1.

• Approximately 350 m southeast of the Crown Point, three (3) of 12 new selective rock grab samples from the Leona Group showings and historical mines (Figure 2) yielded from 23.8 g/T Ag (0.69 opt Ag) up to 429 g/T Ag (12.51 opt Ag) along with very high levels of lead (up to >20% Pb).

• All highly anomalous samples are from outcrop and characterized by the presence of abundant pyrite, visible galena and sphalerite in quartz veins and pods or in silicified metavolcanic or metasedimentary rocks (Greenstones). The mineralization can be described as polymetallic veins and altered wall rock that display the presence of lead, zinc, copper and arsenic and are likely metasomatic in nature. Granodiorite and diorite intrusions have been noted nearby.

• The Crown Point and Leona showings are somewhat lined up along a northwest trending structure near the eastern edge of the Rock Creek Graben characterized by northeast trending normal faults (Figure 3).

Assaying was conducted at ALS Global in Vancouver with each sample analysed for gold by a standard fire assay (Au-ICP-21), which involved the fusion of a 30 g sample aliquot and a wet chemical (ICP) finish. "Overlimit" Au-ICP21 results (>10 g/T Au) were followed up with Au-GRA21 analysis. This involved a 30 g fire assay fusion and gravimetric finish. Additionally, each sample was submitted for multi-element geochemical analysis by the ME-MS61 technique, which is an ICP-MS analysis following a near-total, four-acid, digestion of a 0.25 g sample aliquot. Initial silver and base metal (Cu, Pb and Zn) "overlimit" ICP-MS results (>100 g/T Ag and >1% for base metals) were analysed by a follow-up, "ore grade" ICP technique (OG62), which also involved ICP analysis following a four-acid digestion on a 0.4 g sample aliquot. Any samples with silver values by OG62 >1,500 g/T were re-analysed by 30 g fire assay with a gravimetric finish (Ag-GRA21). ALS Minerals has developed and implemented strategically designed processes and a global quality management system at each of its locations that meets all requirements of International Standards ISO/IEC 17025:2017 and ISO 9001:2015.

The Company has recently completed Phase 1 drilling on the Dayton and Motherlode North prospects. The results have been received for Dayton and been provided in a news release by the Company dated December 23, 2022. The Company will provide an update on the results of drilling at Motherlode North in the near future. Assays are still pending for a number of drillholes.

Brian Testo, President and CEO of Grizzly Discoveries, stated, "We are excited at the high grade silver and battery metal values that have been obtained from the historical Crown Point and Leona Group Mines and potential for additional mineralization. We have not conducted any significant work at the Crown Point area as it was acquired more recently but is part of our current significant land holdings in the Greenwood District. We are planning follow-up work in 2023 at these showings."
