Gitennes Intersects 15.85 GT Gold Over 0.82 Metres in Previously Untested Area at Snowbird Gold Project

Vancouver, British Columbia - September 12, 2018 - Gitennes Exploration Inc. ("Gitennes" or the "Company") announces drill results from its second phase of diamond drilling on its Snowbird High Grade Gold Project. The programme, completed in August consisted of ten NQ2 sized diamond drill holes totalling 1,612 metres. Phase II drilling has extended known high grade gold mineralization and confirms that diamond drilling of the Snowbird Project consistently returns high grade gold intersections.

Highlights from Phase II programme:

• Hole SB18-06 intersected 11.32 g/t gold over 1.32 metres including 15.85 g/t gold over 0.82 metres from 70.0 to 71.32 metres.

  Hole SB18-02 intersected 4.24 g/t gold over 0.7 metres from 114.8 115.5 metres and 4.53 g/t gold over 0.9 metres from 116 to 116.9 metres.

  Hole SB18-03 intersected 4.81 g/t gold over 0.5 metres from 30.4 to 30.9 metres.

  9 of 10 holes intersected anomalous gold over intervals up to 4.5 metres wide (true width unknown) while 6 of 10 drill holes intersected gold grades greater than 1.0 g/t gold.

  Hole SB18-02 was collared in a "gap" between the North and Main Zones where previous exploration had not been carried. Gold intersections in the hole indicate continuity of gold mineralization between the two zones.

  Intense alteration including silicification, carbonatization and chloritization throughout the entire strings of drill core combined with intense shearing indicates a strong and robust system conducive to hosting lode gold-style mineralization.

  Hole SB18-04 intersected four separate intervals >1.0 g/t gold over a 20 metre interval. Combined with results from Hole SB18-03 this confirms and extends mineralization in historic drill holes 88-14, 89-04, and 89-17.

  High grade result in Hole SB18-06 extends known high grade mineralization 30 metres northwest from historic drill hole 89-15. Hole SB18-07 extends mineralization another 25 metres to the northwest.

Key Takeaways from Phase II Drilling

The objective of the Company's Phase II drill programme was to extend the high grade gold mineralization identified in the 1980's along strike. This was successful as the North and Main Zone were connected. The majority of drill holes were collared in the North Zone but from locations northwest of previous 1980's drill holes, thereby extending North Zone mineralization and high grade along strike and up dip. Snowbird remains open at depth and along strike.

Selected Drill Intersections

Quality Assurance/Quality Control (QA/QC)

Gitennes maintains a rigorous quality assurance/quality control program at the Snowbird Project. Selected core intervals were sawn in half and each sample half was placed in a marked sample bag with a corresponding sample tag, and then sealed. The remaining half core is retained in core boxes that are stored at a secure facility in Smithers, British Columbia. Chain of custody of samples was recorded and maintained for all samples from the drill to the laboratory.

All diamond drilling sample batches included 12% QA/QC samples consisting of certified blanks, standards and field duplicates. Two certified ore assay laboratory standards and one blank standard were used in the process and were supplied by CDN Resource Laboratories Ltd., an independent laboratory located in Langley, British Columbia. Samples were submitted to ALS Global in North Vancouver, British Columbia, an ISO/IEC 17025:2005 and ISO 9001: 2015 certified lab. Samples were prepared by crushing the entire sample to 75% passing 2mm, riffle splitting 250g and pulverizing the split to better than 85% passing 75 microns. Gold was analyzed using a 30 gram fire assay/AAS and the 36 element analysis was done by ICP-AES/ICP-MS

The Snowbird project is accessible year round via paved and dirt roads and sits at a relatively low elevation with moderate relief (not exceeding 190 metres). The ease of access to all parts of the property enables cost effective diamond drilling throughout the entire year. Gitennes has a multi-year permit for drilling from up to 40 sites with some of the sites designated for more than one diamond drill hole.
