Pistol Bay Options out Ben Lake and Dixie 3 Claims


Vancouver, B.C. - December 12, 2019: Pistol Bay Mining Inc. (TSX-V - PST; Frankfurt - OQS2, OTC/Pink Sheet symbol SLTF
--->F) ("Pistol Bay" or the "Company") reports that it has optioned out 100% of it's Ben Lake and Dixie 3 claims in the Re
--->d Lake Mining District to  Infinite Lithium Corp. (ILI-TSX:V) (OTCQB:ARXRF)
                      
The Dixie 3 and Ben Lake properties are contiguous and comprises 9 claims, for 178 single-cell mining claims and 3 bou
--->ndary cell mining claims, covering approximately 3,680 hectares. Both properties have multiple known VMS mineral occur
--->rences, electromagnetic (EM) and magnetic geophysical anomalies, and favorable alteration patterns. Both properties ha
--->ve excellent access and logistics, from Red Lake or Ear Falls. 
 Terms of this agreement         
Payments of Cdn $100,000 cash over a 6 month period starting at date of execution of agreement.
2,000,000 shares of Infinite Lithium Corp issued to Pistol Bay Mining Inc.
Royalties are payable to original vendors.
Mike England, CEO of Infinite Lithium Corp. stated "While we are excited to have acquired these claims of merit from P
--->istol Bay, which are contiguous to our own recently acquired claims. It speak volumes to the quality of the sizable la
--->nd positions still held by Pistol Bay in this prolific region of the Red Lake camp."

Red Lake Mining District

The Pakwash East block comprises of 35 cells with an area of approximately 716 hectares (1,760 acres). It is 12.5 kilo
--->metres southeast of the Great Bear Resources Dixie property. It adjoins a 9,650-hectare claim group registered to Grea
--->t Bear Resources.

The Pakwash North block comprises of 106-cells, 2,174hectare (5,370 acres). It lies 21 kilometres southeast of the Dix
--->ie Lake gold discovery now being explored by Great Bear Resources Ltd, and 44 kilometres southeast of the town of Red 
--->Lake. It is accessible by old forestry access roads leading from provincial highway 105, as well as by boat via Pakwas
--->h Lake and the Chukuni and English Rivers. Geological mapping has confirmed that Pakwash North straddles a major fault
---> structure, The Sydney Lake Fault. 

The Pakwash South property comprises of 2,130-hectare (5,264 acres) lies southeast of the Dixie Lake gold discovery no
--->w being explored by Great Bear Resources Ltd. It is accessible by old forestry access roads leading from provincial hi
--->ghway 105, as well as by boat via Pakwash Lake and the Chukuni and English Rivers

Confederation Lake

Advanced Exploration Stage Zinc-Copper Properties in Confederation Lake, Red Lake area, Ontario

The Confederation Lake properties consist of 1096 claims over 20,700 hectares or 51,050 acres covering 60 km in length
--->. A total of 567 holes were drilled on the properties. This includes all of the mining claims Pistol Bay acquired from
---> AurCrest totaling 321 claim units with an area of 5,136 ha over 31 km This area includes two substantial mineral depo
--->sits and a number of mineralized drill intersections that are in need of follow-up drill testing.

Garnet Lake / Arrow Zone

The Arrow Zone has a 43-101 compatible mineral resources as follows: 3% Zn equivalent cutoff: Indicated Resource 2,071
--->,000 tonnes @ 5.92% Zn, 0.75% Cu, 21.1 g/t Ag and 0.58 g/t Au Inferred Resource      120,550 tonnes @ 2.60% Zn, 0.56%

Fredart, Copperlode                                                                                                   
--->                                      
Another substantial deposit in Pistol's portfolio is the Copperlode "A" or Fredart Zone. It has a historical mineral r
--->esource of 386,000 tonnes grading 1.56% copper (non-compliant NI 43-101 and has not been reviewed by a Qualified Perso
--->n). The zone was previously drill-tested to a depth of approximately 200 meters over a length of 350 meters, and was r
--->eported as being open at depth. A total of 283 drill holes were drilled on the Fredart 'A' and Garnet Lake claims. The
---> area was also explored for molybdenum in the 1970's and samples containing up to 1.46% Mo were reported.
In 2017 a VTEM Plus survey was done on most of the claims and it showed conductors on these claims that do not appear 
--->to have been drilled-tested in the past are 400, 850, 900 and 950 metres and there is an almost continuous trend of co
--->nductivity over a length of 6.5 kilometre
Dixie 17,18,19,20

The Dixie Zinc Copper Project is optioned by Pistol Bay and is in Confederation Lake Greenstone Belt in Ontario. This 
--->property is known as the 17-18-19 Dixie Claims. Pistol also owns the Dixie 20 Claim which is located east of the Dixie
---> 18 Claim and North of the Dixie 19 Claim. This property is located approximately 35 kilometers southeast of Red Lake.
--->  

The Dixie 18 zone, which lies on the Dixie Property, was estimated by Noranda Inc. to contain 100,000 tonnes grading 1
--->2.5% zinc and 0.5% copper
Joy, Joy North and Caravelle                                                                                          
The Joy North claim is contiguous with the Joy group of claims and covers five separate mineralized zones, all of VMS 
--->character. A single 48 metre diamond drill hole was put down in the vicinity of the conductor (exact location unknown)
---> in 1970 by Caravelle Mines Ltd.  It intersected a variety of metavolcanic rocks exhibiting intense alteration of the 
--->type associated with Volcanogenic Massive Sulphide (VMS) deposits.  It also intersected calc-silicate rocks suggesting
---> that the Property may lie at the same stratigraphic horizon as the Dixie zone, 11 kilometres to the west. 
Mitchell, Gerry Lake and Karas Lake.                                                                                  
---> 
The Property consists of 33 mining claims, comprising 232 claim units, and covering approximately 3700 hectares.
The Mitchell Township or Fly-Moth claim group covers a 9 kilometre stretch of the Confederation Lake greenstone belt a
--->nd extends to within 1.5 km of the former producing South Bay zinc-copper-silver mine.  Previous exploration has inclu
--->ded approximately 90 diamond drill holes.
The Wasp Lake Mineralized Trend was extensively drilled by Selco; This mineralized trend gave a strong conductive resp
--->onse on Pistol Bay's recent VTEM PLUS airborne survey.  The Company plans to have the geophysics modelled to assess th
--->e possibility of a deep-seated massive sulphide zone.
The Fly Lake zone was tested by 4 drill holes by St Joseph Minerals in 1976 over a 50 metre length.  Pistol Bay's VTEM
---> PLUS survey gave a well-defined response on 2 lines, indicating a length of up to 400 metres. This zone appears to be
---> open along strike and at depth.  The Company proposes to drill for extensions of the mineralization, assisted by mode
--->lling of the VTEM data. VTEM Anomalies:
There are 9 discrete VTEM PLUS conductive anomalies that do not appear to have had any previous drill testing.  Their 
--->conductivity varies from very weak to moderate.  Most are in areas with little or no outcrop and one is under a lake.

Lucky 7 / Moth                                                                                                        
--->                                . 
The Lucky 7 Property (5 claims, 640 hectares, 1580 acres) covers a number of mineralized zones. The claims adjoin the 
--->Garnet Lake and Garnet East claim groups.   A copper-gold sulphide zone, which apparently grades into a siliceous gold
---> zone at its eastern end, was stripped and drill tested in 2002 by Kings Bay Gold Corp.   Two short electromagnetic an
--->omalies were drill tested by Selco Mining Corp. in 1980.  A zone of massive to disseminated sulphides, referred to as 
--->the Hilltop Copper-Gold Zone, has been trenched but apparently never drilled.
The Moth group of 10 claims comprises 85 units (1360 hectares, 3360 acres).  It is separated from the Lucky 7 claims b
--->y a 5 kilometre gap.  It covers a 5.5 kilometre length of favourable geology and its north boundary is only 2 kilometr
--->es from the former producing South Bay mine, which is at the end of the South Bay Road, and hence the end of the most 
--->accessible part of the Confederation Lake greenstone belt.   The area was extensively explored between 1970 and the mi
--->d 1990s, with at least 14 diamond drill holes.  Widespread hydrothermal alteration was noted and there were numerous i
--->ndications of zinc and/or copper mineralization.
