Brixton Metals Corporation
(TSX-V: BBB, OTCQB:
BBBXF) (the “
Company” or
“
Brixton”) is pleased to report its first drill
hole results from the Camp Creek Cu-Au-Ag-Mo Porphyry Target on its
wholly owned Thorn Project located in Northwestern British
Columbia, Canada. The Thorn Project is located within the Taku
River Tlingit and Tahltan First Nation’s traditional territory.

CuEq
- Including 128.00m of 0.94% CuEq
- Including 40.00m of 1.02% CuEq
- The copper dominant porphyry

Chairman & CEO, Gary Thompson, stated, “We
are encouraged by these results which supports our belief that the
Camp Creek Target is a large Cu-Au-Ag-Mo porphyry system with a 1km
by 2km area which remains largely untested. The XRF data that we
are collecting on the core and soils has been an invaluable tool as
a real time proxy for copper grades for drill hole planning and new
porphyry target generation.”

The Camp Creek acid-sulphate alteration and
geochemical expression further to the northeast is covered and
unconformably overlain by a late rhyolite flowdome complex which
suggests mineralization may continue under this volcanic cover (see
Figure 1) providing for a 1km by 2km porphyry target area.

All assay values are uncut weighted averages.
Intervals reflect drilled intercept lengths as further drilling is
required to determine the true widths of the mineralization. Copper
Equivalent (CuEq) is calculated based on US$ 4.30/lb Cu, US$
1820.00/oz Au, US$ 23.80/oz Ag, US $18.00/lb Mo. These prices
represent the approximate one year trailing moving averages of
metal prices and calculations do not consider metals
recoveries.
The formula is: CuEq % = Cu % + (0.617248 * Au
g/t) + (0.008072 * Ag g/t) + (0.000419 * Mo ppm).

Vice President of Exploration, Christina Anstey,
stated, “Hole 201 has generated the highest copper grades
encountered on the Camp Creek Porphyry Target to date. The
mineralization remains open in several directions. While we have
yet to tap the higher-grade core of the porphyry, we are having
success with meaningful step outs and starting to demonstrate the
large scale of this system.”
Discussion
The objective of hole THN22-201 was to reach a
depth of 1500m between the 2021 holes THN21-183 and THN21-184,
where both holes ended in increasing copper grades downhole at
1336m and 1298m respectively. However, due to poor ground
conditions hole THN22-201 was terminated at 1302.71m. Calc-alkalic
porphyry Cu-Au-Ag-Mo mineralization is disseminated and within
quartz-anhydrite veins and as chalcopyrite-molybdenite
veins-veinlets. Mineralization is hosted within Porphyry X, a
crowded plagioclase porphyry of Cretaceous age (85.1Ma +- 1.1Ma),
characterized by well-defined stacked biotite, a feature typical of
mineral-related porphyry phases. Mineralization is also hosted in
hornfels of Triassic Stuhini Group sedimentary rocks, which are
intruded by the porphyry phases.
Holes THN22-200 and THN22-202 (assays pending)
were from the same pad located 284m southwest from collars
THN21-184 and THN22-201. These two holes were drilled as pilot
holes to the limits of the drill with the objective of using the
larger drill to re-enter the hole and drill deeper if warranted.
Hole 200 did not return any significant results and was drilled to
a depth of 630m.
Hole THN22-213 was located 235m to the
west-southwest from the collar for holes 201 and 184. Hole 213 was
drilled to a depth of 1243m which ended in similar porphyry
mineralization hosted in Porphyry X and hornfels sediments with
assays pending. See Figure 2 for collar locations.
The objective of further drilling is to test for
the high-grade core of the Camp Creek Porphyry.
Currently, the Company is drilling hole
THN22-221 which is collared 276m northeast from the collar for
holes 201-184, see Figure 2.

Additional Data Collection
The Reflex XRF geochemical analyzer is being
used on the Camp Creek core for copper and molybdenum as a proxy
for real time metal values in parts per million. Upon completion of
logging and cutting of the core, a hand-held grinder is used to
collect a representative pulp sample across interval. XRF data is
being collected on soils once dried for zinc values as a proxy for
gold on the Trapper Target and analyzed for copper values at the
Metla, Val, West and East porphyry targets to identify real time
anomalies for immediate follow-up.
To date Brixton’s field crews have acquired 704
soils and 315 rock samples collectively from the Trapper, Metla,
Val and Outlaw Targets.
In addition to the XRF, oriented core, rock
density, Terraspec mineral analyzer, magnetic susceptibility and
conductivity data are being collected from the core.
Quality Assurance & Quality
Control
Quality assurance and quality control protocols
for drill core sampling was developed by Brixton. The gold, silver,
copper, lead, zinc, and molybdenum duplicate assay results are well
correlated, and it is the Qualified Person’s opinion that strong
precision is inferred within the reported analytical results. Core
samples were taken between 0.5m and 2.5m intervals based on
lithology and mineralization. Blank, duplicate (lab pulp) and
certified reference materials were inserted into the sample stream
for at least every 20 drill core samples. Core samples were cut,
bagged, zip-tied and sent directly to ALS Minerals preparation
facility in Whitehorse, Yukon. ALS Minerals Laboratories is
registered to ISO 9001:2008 and ISO 17025 accreditations for
laboratory procedures. Samples were analyzed at ALS Laboratory
Facilities in North Vancouver, British Columbia for gold by fire
assay with an atomic absorption finish, whereas Ag, Pb, Cu and Zn
and 48 additional elements were analyzed using four acid digestion
with an ICP-MS finish. The 2022 Thorn project analytical results
have been determined to be high quality and have passed this QAQC
review.
The standards, certified reference materials,
were acquired from CDN Resource Laboratories Ltd., of Langley,
British Columbia and the standards inserted varied depending on the
type and abundance of mineralization visually observed in the
primary sample. Blank material used consisted of non-mineralized
siliceous landscaping rock. A copy of the QAQC protocols can be
viewed at the Company’s website.
Mr. Gary R. Thompson, P.Geo., Chairman and CEO
of Brixton, is the Qualified Person “QP” who has reviewed and
approved the technical information on this news release. The QP
advises that true width of the above results cannot be determined
at this time.
