JAXON SIGNS DEFINITIVE AGREEMENT ON FOREMORE, CONSOLIDATES PROPERTIES IN BC'S FAMED GOLDEN TRIANGLE

Jaxon Minerals Inc. has signed a definitive option agreement to acquire a 100-per-cent interest in the Foremore property, located 30 kilometres north of Eskay Creek and 75 km north of Pretium's Brucejack property in the Golden Triangle, northwest British Columbia. The Foremore property extends north to Jaxon's 3,900-hectare Wishbone property, expanding the company's contiguous landholdings in the region to almost 20,000 hectares. Jaxon has renamed the new consolidated property the More Creek property.

"This acquisition places us in the heart of one of the most prolific regions in Canada with another district-scale project," commented Jason Cubitt, Jaxon's president and chief executive officer. "Historic exploration has returned some truly impressive results, and we're intent on applying new technology and innovation to follow up on the excellent work that's already been done."

More Creek property highlights include:

• 162 grams per tonne gold sulphide boulder initial discovery;
• 3.1-metre drill intercept: 14.6 g/t gold, 1,114 g/t silver, 6.6 per cent zinc;
• 3,240.9 g/t gold, 82,514 g/t silver in outcrop vein;
• 250 m thick drill intercept, highly anomalous in base and precious metals.

More Creek property background

Since Cominco's original 1987 discovery of a 162 g/t gold sulphide mineralized boulder in glacial debris, the More Creek property has seen over $10-million in focused exploration expenditure targeting volcanogenic massive sulphide (VMS) and epithermal/mesothermal mineralized vein systems.

Much of the property remains underexplored. Field results have seen little follow-up, including a 3.1-metre drill intercept grading 14.6 g/t gold, 1,114 g/t silver and 6.6 per cent zinc, and an assay from outcrop containing visible gold assaying 3,240.9 g/t gold and 82,514 g/t silver.

The last drilling on the property was completed in 2008. This program included six holes totalling just over 2,000 metres testing chargeability anomalies at the BRT/Ryder zone. The last hole, FM08-54, "intersected a 250 m thick, altered, dominantly felsic sequence, highly anomalous in base and precious metals, indicating that the volcanogenic massive sulphide (VMS) system remains open to the northwest. Drilling was curtailed due to the onset of winter." (April 25, 2009, report on 2008 fieldwork, David Melling and Paul Albers)

The project hosts an abundance of known precious- and base-metal-rich mineralized boulder fields and mineralized outcrops, as well as multiple geochemical and geophysical anomalies, with 19 named showings and boulder fields being the most advanced targets.

Data compilation and preliminary reconnaissance

Jaxon is currently compiling the extensive historical data set on the More Creek property, reintegrating the Wishbone property data with the goal of producing an updated geological model.

Special emphasis will be given to fully consolidate work from the last year of significant exploration (during 2008), which included 78 line km of gridding in four areas, 52.6 line km of induced polarization (IP) and 57.7 line km of total field ground magnetometer surveys, 3,300 metres of drilling, and 301 rock and 197 soil samples taken during the course of geological mapping.

About the Golden Triangle

The Golden Triangle of British Columbia is among the world's most prolific mining districts. Over 130 million ounces of gold and 800 million ounces of silver have been found within its borders. Significant infrastructure improvements in recent years, including paved road, electrical transmission and ocean port facilities, are supporting a new breed of explorers in the region -- host to past major mining operations at Snip, Eskay Creek and Premier, and current exploration, development and/or mining operations, including KSM, Galore Creek, Schaft Creek, Johnny Mountain, Red Mountain, Golden Bear, Valley of the Kings and Red Chris, amongst others.

Acquisition terms

Please see terms as stated in Jaxon's June 1, 2017, news release, defining staged payments and share issuances totalling $700,000 cash and 2.55 million shares, as well as an additional $2.5-million cash and 2.5 million shares upon commercial production. This transaction is subject to Toronto Stock Exchange approval.
