COMMERCE RESOURCES CORP. AND SAVILLE RESOURCES INC. REPORT DRILL RESULTS INCLUDING 1.03% NB2O5 OVER 5.3 M AT THE NIOBIUM CLAIM GROUP PROPERTY, QUEBEC

Commerce Resources Corp. has released results from Saville Resources Inc.'s second and third drill holes from the Mallard target at the niobium claim group property, a subset of the company's Eldor claims, which are located approximately 130 kilometres south of Kuujjuaq, Que. The property covers several prospective and advanced-stage niobium-tantalum targets, with Saville Resources completing year 1 of its earn-in agreement on these claims.

Company president Chris Grove stated: "We are very pleased with these results and look forward to receiving from Saville the remaining drill hole assays of the program. Considering the work we have done on these claims in the last decade, and with these new results, we believe that we have a leading global niobium asset and further, have only scratched the surface of its potential."

Saville Resources continues to return strong drill intersections of niobium mineralization at Mallard with sample assays for drill holes EC19-172 and 173 now received. Highlights include 0.67 per cent niobium pentoxide (Nb2O5) over 27.0 metres, including 1.03 per cent Nb2O5 over 5.3 m (EC19-172), and 0.66 per cent Nb2O5 over 14.5 m, including 0.78 per cent Nb2O5 over 8.8 m (EC19-173). In addition, the widest high-grade tantalum intercept to date on the property was returned from drill hole EC19-172 at 274 parts per million Ta2O5 over 100.8 m, including 373 ppm tantalum pentoxide (Ta2O5) over 46.7 m.

Drill hole EC19-172 bottomed in mineralization at a depth of 240.0 m (core length) with the final sample assaying 0.78 per cent Nb2O5 over 1.5 m. This drill hole was positioned to undercut EC19-171 and the success of both holes indicate that mineralization has significant depth and strike length potential. Further, coupled with drill hole EC19-171, which also bottomed in mineralization, as well as the numerous mineralized intersections at depth in historical holes, collectively indicate a large and robust niobium mineralized system is present at Mallard.

The results of the 2019 drill program to date have significantly expanded the near-surface niobium-mineralized zone, initially identified historically in 2010, at least 60 m to the southeast of drill hole EC10-033. At Mallard, the mineralization is interpreted to extend from surface and form several elongate northwest-striking horizons that remain open in all directions. Drill holes EC19-171 and 172 have significantly expanded the mineralized strike length to the southeast, while drill hole EC19-173 located farther along strike to the northwest support continued potential in that direction toward the Spoke and Miranna targets. In addition, the recent 2019 drill results further demonstrate a strong tantalum component/zonation associated with the niobium mineralization is present.

(1) Analytical detection limits are 0.003 per cent (30 ppm) for Nb2O5 and 
Ta2O5 and 0.01 per cent for P2O5.
(2) Fluorine analysis yet to be completed.
(3) All drill holes are NQ core size, with approximate strike/dip of 
230/45.
(4) True width is not fully constrained; however, the dip of 
mineralization is interpreted as moderate/steep to the northeast. 
Incorporation of the 2019 drill data is anticipated to provide a proper 
basis for true width to be reasonably estimated. 
 

The Mallard target is the most advanced prospect on the property, with 2,490 m over nine drill holes completed by the company (2008 and 2010), and 1,049 m over five drill holes now completed by Saville Resources (2019). Coupled with the strong mineralization returned historically, Saville Resources' phase 1 drill program at Mallard will provide the foundation for advancement toward an initial mineral resource estimate. Further drilling at Mallard as well as several other high-priority targets, including Miranna, is planned as part of phase 2. The 2019 exploration of the property is being carried out by Dahrouge Geological Consulting Ltd. and managed out of Quebec.

Quality assurance/quality control (QA/QC)

A quality assurance/quality control protocol following industry best practices was incorporated into the program and included systematic insertion of quartz blanks and certified reference materials into sample batches, as well as collection of quarter-core duplicates, at a rate of approximately 5 per cent. Drill holes EC19-171, 172, 173 and 174A were sampled in their entirety, for a total of 764 samples including QA/QC, and were shipped to Activation Laboratories in Ancaster, Ont., for analysis. No samples were collected from EC19-174 as it was unexpectedly lost at a depth of 81 m and recollared as EC19-174A.

Lab analysis included niobium, tantalum and major oxides by XRF (X-ray fluorescence) (package 8-Coltan XRF). Standard drill core sample preparation was completed and comprised crushing to 80 per cent passing 10 mesh, followed by a 250 g riffle split and pulverizing to 95 per cent passing 105 microns (package RX1). Additional sample analysis is anticipated.
