ALX Resources Corp. Receives Exploration Permit for Gibbons Creek Uranium Project, SK

Vancouver, June 10, 2021 - ALX Resources Corp. (TSXV: AL) (FSE: 6LLN) (OTC: ALXEF) ("ALX" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has received an exploration permit for its 100%-owned Gibbons Creek Uranium Project ("Gibbons Creek", or the "Project"). Gibbons Creek consists of seven mineral claims encompassing 13,864 hectares (34,259 acres), located along the northern margin of the Athabasca Basin immediately west of the community of Stony Rapids, Saskatchewan, in a region hosting multiple uranium occurrences.

2021 Exploration Plan

The Gibbons Creek exploration permit, good to October 2022, allows for a 5,000-metre drilling program in up to 20 holes along with ground-based geophysics, prospecting and geochemical sampling. Access to the Project is year-round, thereby creating a flexibility for either summer or winter exploration programs.

ALX reviewed its extensive archive of geophysical and geochemical data from historical work to identify new target areas at Gibbons Creek. Several geophysical conductors at the Project identified by airborne and ground geophysics have not yet been drill tested. ALX plans to carry out a Spatiotemporal Geochemical Hydrocarbons ("SGH") soil geochemistry survey over the untested conductors to determine the most prospective areas for drilling. SGH is an analytical method developed by Actlabs of Ancaster, Ontario that is designed to detect subtle geochemical anomalies emanating from a buried source. Work is anticipated to begin in the Third Quarter of 2021 following engagement with First Nations and other local communities.

Uranium Showings in the Northern Athabasca Basin

• Nisto Mine: Located approximately 30 kilometres east from the centre of Gibbons Creek. Mining first occurred at the Nisto Mine in 1950-51. In 1959, Haymac Mines restarted mining and shipped 500 tons of high-graded ore to the Lorado Mill at Uranium City, SK. One shipment of 106 tons of ore graded 1.6% U₃O₈ (Source: Saskatchewan Mineral Deposits Index, Mineral Property #1621).

• Black Lake Uranium Project ("Black Lake"): Located adjacent to Gibbons Creek. Owned 40% by ALX, with UEX Corporation ("UEX") holding a 51.426% interest and Orano Canada Inc. holding an 8.574% interest. Following the discovery of uranium mineralization in 1998 by Uranerz Exploration and Mining, UEX intersected 0.69% U₃O₈ over 4.4 metres in 2004 drill hole BL-18, which led to over a decade of follow-up exploration, including 142 additional drill holes. Multiple mineralized intersections were encountered at Black Lake along a graphitic fault system since the uranium discovery in hole BL-18 (see ALX news release dated July 31, 2017).

• Fond du Lac Uranium Deposit: Located approximately 70 kilometres west of the Project near the south shore of Lake Athabasca. The Fond du Lac uranium deposit was discovered in 1970 by Camok Ltd., a predecessor company of Orano Canada Ltd. after tracing radioactive boulders to their source area and grid drilling. A shallow, historical resource was calculated in 1970 by Camok Ltd. of 990,000 pounds (450,000 kilograms) at an average grade of 0.25% of U₃O₈ but was never advanced further (Source: Saskatchewan Mineral Deposits Index, Mineral Property #1572. This historical resource is not compliant with the standards of National Instrument 43-101, has not been verified by ALX's Qualified Person and is included for information purposes only.)

About Gibbons Creek

The Project is complemented by the infrastructure provided at Stony Rapids, SK, including all-weather Highway 905, a commercial airport, equipment rentals and supplies, as well as readily available accommodation, therefore providing high efficiencies for exploration. Exploration by ALX and its predecessor company Lakeland Resources Ltd. has discovered the following indicators of uranium mineralization:

• Prospecting in 2013 confirmed the presence of high-grade uranium-bearing boulders ranging up to 4.28% U₃O₈;
• Radon surveys in 2015 detected an anomaly approximately 1,200 metres by 500 metres in size with peak radon values ranging between 4.00 picocuries per square metre per second ("pCi/m²/sec") and 10.77 pCi/m²/sec at ten locations, which are among the highest recorded radon values in the Athabasca Basin;
• Historical drill hole GC15-03 intersected 0.13% U₃O₈ over 0.23 metres, within a 1.1 metre interval of 333.8 parts per million uranium, immediately below the sub-Athabasca unconformity;
• Spectroscopic analysis of core samples from ALX's 2015 drilling detected clay alteration products such as illite and sudoite (a unique form of chlorite associated with uranium mineralization) in the sandstone at or near the unconformity, which suggests that hydrothermal alteration has occurred in the vicinity of the drill hole;
• Geophysical conductors defined by a 2017 airborne ZTEM survey remain to be tested; and
• In 2020, ALX carried out surface prospecting on the Star Gold and PGE showing in the northern part of the Project and collected grab samples from outcrop ranging up to 3.58 grams/tonne gold, 122 parts per billion ("ppb") platinum and 412 ppb palladium.

NationaI Instrument 43-101 Disclosure

The technical information in this news release has been reviewed and approved by Sierd Eriks, P.Geo., President and Chief Geologist of ALX, who is a Qualified Person in accordance with the Canadian regulatory requirements set out in National Instrument 43-101. Geochemical results for surface samples collected by ALX in 2020 were analyzed at the Saskatchewan Research Council in Saskatoon, SK by Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry (ICP-MS). Gold, platinum and palladium were analyzed by fire assay techniques.

Historical geochemical results and geological descriptions quoted in this news release were taken directly from assessment work filings and summary reports published by the Government of Saskatchewan. Management cautions that historical results were collected and reported by past operators and have not been verified nor confirmed by its Qualified Person, but create a scientific basis for ongoing work in the Gibbons Creek area. Management further cautions that past results or discoveries on adjacent or nearby mineral properties are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be achieved on ALX's mineral properties.
