Baselode Intersects 81 Metres and 30 Metres of Radioactive Mineralization Near Surface; New Near-Surface Zone Discovered

• AK22-065 intersected a total 81.0 metres of composite mineralization including 1,057 cps over 52.3 m, ranks as the second-best drill hole on the project
• AK22-052 intersected 2,677 cps over 30.0 metres beginning 30.0 metres downhole, ranks as best drill hole on the project
• Another near-surface zone has been discovered

TORONTO, June 27, 2022 - Baselode Energy Corp. (TSXV: FIND) (OTCQB: BSENF) ("Baselode" or the "Company") is pleased to provide an update for the ongoing 20,000 metre diamond drilling program (the "Program") on the ACKIO high-grade uranium discovery ("ACKIO"), Hook project ("Hook"), Athabasca Basin area (the "Basin"), northern Saskatchewan (see Figure 1 and Table 1).

"Four of these reported drill holes now rank amongst the top six in composite radioactivity results, as Baselode continues to expand upon its ACKIO near-surface discoveries. These results demonstrate high levels of radioactivity but also considerable widths of mineralization. Additionally, results from AK22-063 suggest that we've discovered another near-surface zone. The remainder of the drill program will seek to delineate the extent of these near-surface zones as they remain open in all directions. These discoveries are very shallow, with mineralization beginning 25 metres from surface at the overburden contact, similar to the open-pit mines in the Athabasca's history, most notably Rabbit Lake, Cluff Lake, and Uranium City operations," said James Sykes, CEO, President and Director of Baselode.

The Company has prepared a video presentation providing technical details and interpretations of the Program results. The video discusses:

• Results and interpretations of the near-surface mineralization just beneath the overburden contact, including a new zone of mineralization defined in hole AK22-063
• Hand-held scintillometer results do not reflect what's underground in AK22-065 (i.e., 20% lost core in mineralization)
• Ongoing modelling and interpretation of ACKIO as a whole
• Results of the drill fences to the southeast and their implications of mineralization

Drill hole highlights include;

• AK22-052: 2,677 cps over 30.0 m at 30.0 m (best individual continuous radioactivity intersection at ACKIO to date) which includes
• 4,728 cps over 7.6 m at 31.2 m and a maximum of 12,000 cps over 0.2 m
• AK22-065: 81.0 m of composite mineralization comprised of 1,057 cps over 52.3 m at 63.8 m (3^rd best individual continuous radioactivity intersection) which includes
• 2,488 cps over 12.75 m at 84.25 m and a maximum of 15,000 cps over 0.1 m
  And 745 cps over 14.75 m at 137.25 m which includes
• 2,101 cps over 1.55 m at 145.1 m
  And 819 cps over 7.1 m at 167.5 m which includes
• 3,139 cps over 0.9 m at 173.3 m and a maximum of 10,250 cps over 0.15 m
• AK22-053: 1,360 cps over 18.6 m at 137.4 m (fifth best individual continuous radioactivity intersection at ACKIO to date) which includes
• 3,332 cps over 4.15 m at 145.75 m and a maximum of 8,000 cps over 0.1 m
• AK22-063: 52.3 m of composite mineralization comprised of 612 cps over 15.1 m at 53.7 m and 720 cps over 12.8 m at 80.85 m

Drill holes AK22-052 and AK22-053 were follow-up drill holes to AK22-051 which was the first drill hole off the drill pad (2,320 cps over 30.1 m at 27.0 m depth, see News Release dated May 31, 2022). Drilling to the north and west of the these drill holes have continued to grow near-surface mineralization in these directions. Drill holes are planned to follow-up the western and southern extents of near-surface mineralization previously identified in drill holes AK22-038 and AK22-041.

Since announcing the start of the Program on February 9, 2022 (see Company News Release), Baselode has completed 61 drill holes (AK22-005 to AK22-065) for 17,935.50 m (see Figure 1). Thirty-three of sixty-one drill holes have intersected continuously elevated radioactivity. A complete list of drill hole collar information and hand-held scintillometer radioactivity composite measurements for the drill holes reported in this news release (AK22-052 to AK22-065) are provided in Table 1.

Samples from these reported fourteen drill holes have been submitted to the Saskatchewan Research Council's Geoanalytical Laboratory in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, for whole-rock, multi-element and U₃O₈ analysis. Uranium assay results will be released as they are received after being compiled and thoroughly checked by the technical team.

ACKIO is 30 km southeast of well-established infrastructure, including an all-season road and powerline between Cameco Corp.'s (TSX: CCO) and Orano's McArthur River mine and Key Lake uranium mill joint ventures. ACKIO is 70 km northeast of the Key Lake mill. The Program is helicopter-supported to lessen any ground-induced environmental impacts within the project area.
