Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - November 7, 2022) - SASQUATCH RESOURCES CORP. (CSE: SASQ) ("Sasquatch" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has made some substantial and yet very cost-efficient advances at its Mount Sicker property.

Previous Geophysical Survey

Raw geophysical data from a previous Airborne Pulse Time Domain Electromagnetic geophysical survey (TDEM survey) has been obtained by the Company at no cost and the data was subsequently inverted and analyzed for Sasquatch by an independent geophysical contractor. The contractor's report will provide invaluable information to help guide and better target future exploration activities, essentially by showing where large electromagnetic anomalies exist at various depths throughout the property.

New LiDAR Survey

Sasquatch hired Aeroquest Mapcon Inc. to complete an airborne laser imaging, detection and ranging (LiDAR) survey over the Mount Sicker property, and results were recently delivered to the Company. This survey provides Sasquatch with a very high-resolution representation of the surface area of the property, and will provide the Company with a far more accurate understanding of the size and shape of certain important geological features, such as faults, dips, tailings ponds and the like. The LiDAR results have already pointed the Company toward some areas requiring further investigation that were not necessarily detectable based on pre-existing maps.

Tailings and Waste Rock

Given that Mount Sicker was the site of at least four past operating mines, the property contains a number of broken rock piles that may or may not be waste rock from previous mining activity. Over the next month Sasquatch will be ascertaining the dimensions and composition (i.e. grades) for the broken rock piles in order to determine what, if any, tangible value they may hold.

Mt. Sicker Exploration Update

In November, the Sasquatch exploration team plans to investigate mineralization, follow up on topographical anomalies outlined by LiDAR, assess structural and mineralization continuations, refine, add, and flag potential drill targets, obtain further samples, and conduct infill mapping. Further, the team intends to adequately map the extent and size of rock piles, tailings, and core, and potentially drill in target areas. The Company will provide further updates as warranted.

Issuance of Shares under Option Agreement

The Company also announced that, pursuant to its option agreement (the "Option Agreement") dated as of November 5, 2021 with Justin Deveault and 802213 Alberta Ltd.
