Manson Creek Resources Appoints Dr. Peter Megaw as Technical Advisor

CALGARY, Oct. 23, 2017 - Manson Creek Resources Ltd. (TSX.V:MCK) (“Manson”) is very pleased to announce the appointment of Dr. Peter K. M. Megaw as a Technical Advisor to the Company as it moves forward with its Jade exploration focus.

Dr. Peter K.M. Megaw, is a Consulting Geologist (PhD University of Arizona, 1990) President of IMDEX/Cascabel and co-founder of Minera Cascabel and MAG Silver. He is well known as a metals exploration geologist and received the PDAC’s 2017 Thayer Lindsley Award for discovery of the silver-rich Juanicipio Vein system in Fresnillo, Mexico. Peter is also a passionate mineral collector with strong relationships throughout the international mineral and gem community stemming from 33 years as Exhibits Chair for the world-famous Tucson Gem and Mineral Show™. This job has given him the opportunity to visit most of the world’s major mineral museums, mineral shows and private collections. His personal collection focusses almost exclusively on Minerals of Mexico and he has published extensively on specimen localities there. He is photo-moderator for submissions on Mexico to Mindat.org and co-moderator of the FMF Mineral Forum. A combination of the above led him to be awarded the prestigious Carnegie Mineralogical Award for 2009. From 2013 to 2015 he was an invited guest at the first three Hunan, China Mineral Shows where he developed an appreciation for the importance of Jade in the international gem markets and an interest in the geological aspects of Jade formation and exploration.

Mr. JP Jutras, P.Geol. and President of the Company reports: “Dr. Megaw, whom I have known personally since the late 1990’s, has a rare combination of high level technical exploration expertise and success, as well as a long term involvement in the international world of gems and minerals. It was a privilege to host a visit with Peter during the last phase of field work, and demonstrate the rapid exploration progress obtained through the use of our own Jade exploration model. We look forward to his advice as we go forward in developing our DJ Jade project, as well as continuing to identify other, similar opportunities.”

Dr. Megaw is currently Chief Exploration Officer for MAG Silver Corp, a Director of Minaurum Gold Inc. and a Technical Advisor to Garibaldi Resources Corp as well as Barksdale Capital Corp.

Mr. Megaw has been granted a stock option consisting of 125,000 shares, at a price of $0.14 per share and expiring 5 years from the date of issue.
