HIGHBANK COMPLETES 750 TONNE BULK AGGREGATE SAMPLE FROM ITS SWAMP POINT NORTH PROJECT & LOCAL NEWS UPDATE
Vancouver, B.C. - December 15, 2017 - Highbank Resources Ltd. (TSX.V -"HBK"), (the "Company").
Highbank Resources Ltd., CEO/President, Jim Place is pleased to announce that a bulk sample of approximately 750 tonn
--->es of bank run aggregate (pit-run) and quarried stone from Swamp Point North has been delivered to the Port of Prince
--->Rupert. The material will be stored on land leased by the Company where it will undergo processing and product testing
--->.
Processing of the pit run will consist of crushing, screening, and washing to produce coarse (gravel) and fine (sand)
--->concrete aggregates. Aggregate evaluation will be carried out by a certified concrete aggregate testing laboratory. Th
--->e quarried stone will undergo visual and laboratory testing to evaluate its suitability as rip rap, armour stone, and
--->rail ballast.
Highbank is anticipating increased construction activity in the Prince Rupert area in the near future and feels optimi
--->stic that local contractors will see Swamp Point North as an economic alternative for construction and concrete raw ma
--->terials. The Swamp Point North property is located on Portland Canal, approximately 75 miles (120 kilometers) north of
---> Prince Rupert and has direct access from the pit face and stockpile site to a marine shipping facility owned by Highb
--->ank Resources Ltd.

Eagle Spirit Energy's $16B Alberta-B.C. pipeline gets backing of First Nations chiefs - www.ese-gathering.com
The pipeline plan obtained its 'licence 'as B.C. First Nations chiefs signed on to the project. Major Canadian oil pr
--->oducers including Suncor Energy., Cenovus Energy Inc. and Meg Energy Corp. are supporting its go ahead, while investme
--->nt broker AltaCorp Capital Inc. has been lined up to organize financing. The pipeline's right of way would be on an e
--->nergy corridor that would be pre-approved by First Nations to also house gas pipelines, hydro lines and fiber optic ca
--->ble. Eagle Spirit is also backed by the Aquiline Group of Vancouver, which owns the Vancouver Canucks NHL franchise a
--->nd other major development projects.
Oilsand's giant Suncor, the Fort McKay First Nation and the Mikisew Cree First Nation, both in Alberta, also announced
---> the completion of a 49 percent partnership in Suncor's East Tank Farm Development for $503 million. "The deal repres
--->ents the largest business investment to date by a First Nation entity in Canada, and not only demonstrates the great p
--->otential for partnerships between First Nations and industry but serves as a model for how First Nations can achieve g
--->reater self-determination through financial independence," said Fort McKay chief Jim Boucher.
The pipeline route is planned to land on the B.C. coast in the Prince Rupert area, and puts Highbank's Swamp Point Nor
--->th project as the closest major coastal aggregate supplier.
