Tower Gold Project Update:
- 129,737 m, in 477 drill holes, of the 140,000 m infill drill
program completed have been released.
Keyvan Salehi, P.Eng., MBA, President, CEO, and Director of
STLLR stated: “Windjammer South Deposit infill drilling results
continue to confirm the continuity of mineralization of the Tower
MRE block model. Drill hole MGH23-484 appears to have intersected
mineralization that was previously modelled as waste, suggesting a
potential addition to the known mineralization in that area.
Overall, the drilling information gives us additional confidence in
the Tower MRE block model in the areas drilled.”
“We are pleased to announce the appointment of James Gagne,
P.Eng., MBA as Vice President, Projects & Technical Services.
James brings significant technical and operational experience from
the Timmins and Kirkland Lake mining camps. I’ve known James for
the entirety of his mining career; We worked together at Lake Shore
Gold and we were involved with the construction and operation of
the Bell Creek and Timmins West Mines. James will play an
instrumental role as we advance our cornerstone Tower Gold and
Colomac Gold Projects.”
Windjammer South Deposit Drilling
The Windjammer South Deposit is located on the Golden Highway
Area (western end) of the Tower Gold Project in Timmins, Ontario
(See Figure 1 for the Tower Gold Project - General Location Map).
Mineralization at Windjammer South is associated with extensional
and stockwork-type quartz veining within Timiskaming age
meta-sediments, located between 2 major splays of the prolific
Destor-Porcupine Fault Zone. The 2023 drill program at Windjammer
South was focused on confirming and infilling (50 m drill-centre
spacings) the Tower Gold Project Mineral Resource Estimate1
(“Tower MRE”).
The results from this batch of drilling (please also refer to
the Company’s October 19, 2023 news release for the previous batch
of drilling at Windjammer South) appear to confirm the continuity
of the Windjammer South mineralization as estimated by the Tower
MRE block model. This is evident particularly with holes MGH23-468,
MGH23-478 and MGH23-507 (See Figures 2 & 3). In addition:
- Drill hole MGH23-484 (See Figures 2 & 3):
Intersected significant mineralization in an area previously
modelled as waste.
- Drill holes MGH23-483, MGH23-489, MGH23-490, MGH23-493, and
MGH23-494: Geomechanical and Geometallurgical drilling that
will benefit future mine designs.
Overall, the drilling at Windjammer South confirmed the Tower
MRE block model. The increased drill density provides the potential
to upgrade the areas drilled to a higher resource category and
further define future geological models.
Appointment of VP Projects & Technical Services
The Company has appointed Mr. Gagne to the role of Vice
President, Projects & Technical Services. James brings 15 years
of progressive experience in mine operations, engineering, and
consulting. Previously, Mr. Gagne was with Kirkland Lake Gold as
the Mine Superintendent of the Macassa Mine and was then promoted
to the role of Manager of Mining. As the Manager, James was
responsible for the totality of site operations comprised of 3
shafts, a paste plant, and a processing facility. He was also
involved with the execution of various major projects such as the
new #4 Shaft, the commencement of the Near Surface Portal deposit,
and the new overall mine ventilation upgrade within the complex. At
Lake Share Gold (subsequently acquired by Tahoe Resources then Pan
American Silver), James was involved with the construction, ramp-up
and operation of the Bell Creek and Timmins West Mines in the
Timmins Mining Camp. He held various roles in engineering and
operations, ultimately becoming the Senior Production Engineer.
Prior to joining STLLR, James was the General Manager at Black Rock
Engineering within the IONIC Technology Group, a firm that
specialized in providing engineering services to mining and heavy
industries across North America. Mr. Gagne received his Bachelor of
Engineering at Laurentian University, his MBA at the Lazaridis
School of Business & Economics at Wilfrid Laurier University
and is a Professional Engineer in Ontario.

Quality Control Procedures
NQ drill core is oriented and cut with half sent to ALS
Laboratories Inc. (ALS) for drying and crushing to -2 mm, with a
1.00 kg split pulverized to -75 µm (200#). ALS is an ISO 17025
accredited laboratory. A 50 g charge is Fire Assayed and analyzed
using an AAS finish for Gold. Samples above 10.00 g/t Au are
analyzed by Fire Assay with a gravimetric finish and selected
samples with visible gold or high-grade mineralization are assayed
by Metallic Screen Fire Assay on a 1.00 kg sample. STLLR inserts
independent certified reference material and blanks with the
samples and assays routine pulp repeats and coarse reject sample
duplicates, as well as completing routine third-party check assays
at Bureau Veritas Commodities Canada Ltd.
Qualified Person
John McBride, MSc., P.Geo., Vice President of Exploration for
STLLR, who is the “Qualified Person” as defined by NI 43-101 for
this project, has reviewed and approved of the technical disclosure
contained in this news release.
About STLLR Gold
STLLR Gold Inc. (TSX: STLR; OTCQX: STLRF; FSE: O9D) is a
Canadian gold development company actively advancing two
cornerstone gold projects in Canada: The Tower Gold Project in the
Timmins Mining Camp in Ontario and the Colomac Gold Project located
north of Yellowknife, Northwest Territories. Each of these two
projects has the potential for a long-life and large-scale

upside potential. STLLR’s experienced management team, with a track
record of successfully advancing projects and operating mines, is
working towards rapidly advancing these projects.

the future financial or operating performance of STLLR and STLLR’s
mineral properties and project portfolios, the advancement of the
Tower Gold and Colomac Gold Projects, long-life and large-scale
potential of the Tower and Colomac Gold Projects and exploration
upside of the land packages. Generally, forward-looking information
can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as

Forward-looking information is based on the opinions and
estimates of management at the date the information is made, and is
based on a number of assumptions and is subject to known and
unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause the
actual results, level of activity, performance or achievements of
STLLR to be materially different from those expressed or implied by
such forward-looking information, including risks associated with
required regulatory approvals, the exploration, development and
mining such as economic factors as they effect exploration, future
commodity prices, changes in foreign exchange and interest rates,
actual results of current exploration activities, government
regulation, political or economic developments, the ongoing wars
and their effect on supply chains, environmental risks, COVID-19
and other pandemic risks, permitting timelines, capex, operating or
technical difficulties in connection with development activities,
employee relations, the speculative nature of gold exploration and
development, including the risks of diminishing quantities of
grades of reserves, contests over title to properties, and changes
in project parameters as plans continue to be refined as well as
those risk factors discussed in the joint management information
circular of STLLR dated December 20, 2023, available on
www.sedarplus.ca. Although STLLR has attempted to identify
important factors that could cause actual results to differ
materially from those contained in forward-looking information,
there may be other factors that cause results not to be as
anticipated, estimated or intended. There can be no assurance that
such information will prove to be accurate, as actual results and
future events could differ materially from those anticipated in
such information. Accordingly, readers should not place undue
reliance on forward-looking information. STLLR does not undertake
to update any forward-looking information, except in accordance
with applicable securities laws.
