Aurwest Resources Corporation provided an update on partial results from its 2021 exploration program on the Stellar porphyry copper project (28,294 ha) located 25 km southwest of Houston, British Columbia. The 2021 program consisted of soil and stream sediment geochemical surveys, prospecting, limited hand trenching, channel sampling and a deep penetrating Induced Polarization survey. During the field season, two additional mineral tenures totaling 2277.91ha were acquired through the facilities of British Columbia Mineral Titles Online.

Channel sampling of the historical trenches in the Erin and Jewelry Box targets and on the recently discovered Galena zone was completed. For the Erin target, the trenches are located within an area measuring approximately 50m by 250m. Trench#3 is located approximately 95m southwest of trench#1 and trenches # 4-7 are located approximately 155m southwest of trench #3. The mineralization consists of a higher-grade core surrounded by a lower grade (<500ppm Cu) envelope.

Metal concentrations ranged from 0.05% to 3.23% for copper, 0.5 to 397ppm for silver and 0.005 to 3.47ppm for gold. Trenches 4-7 contains low, but significant gold concentrations. The copper mineralization in trenches 4-7 is open to the north in all trenches.

Chalcopyrite, bornite and tetrahedrite occurs as veins, blebs, and disseminations hosted by beds of maroon vesicular and amygdaloidal volcanic breccias, agglomerates and tuffaceous rocks and fossiliferous limestones. The host rock and metal assemblage suggests a volcanic red bed copper style of mineralization characterized by high Cu-Ag concentrations with minor concentrations of other metals including cobalt. The thickness and extent of the mineralized area has not been determined.

Prospecting has identified additional locations that may be prospective for volcanic hosted red bed copper mineralization. Jewelry Box - Ridge Target: Historically, sampling at the Jewelry Box occurrence concentrated on float vein material described as 'roughly in place" located within an inferred NNE mineralized trend. In 2021, trenching of one of the float occurrences from within the Jewelry Box showing, exposed a 065/70NW trending shear-quartz vein system at least 1.5 m in true thickness.

The mineralized interval consists of sheared quartz material with 5% pyrite. A 0.30m thick quartz-pyrite vein occurs in the center of the trench. The highest gold grades are exposed on the hanging wall and footwall of the 0.30m thick quartz vein.

The maximum gold concentration was 10.3 g/t gold over a channel interval of 0.4m. The mineralization is open in several directions. Quartz vein float with gold values ranging from 0.012 to 2.30 ppm gold in the vicinity of the trench indicates the possibility of a sheeted vein system, other excavations completed in this area in 2021 did not expose additional in-situ quartz veins.

The Ridge Showing is approximately 1.4km northeast of the Jewelry Box showing. The vein appears to be a thin skin of mineralized quartz exposed on the side of a bluff. It is approximately parallel to the trend of the Jewelry Box.

Approximately 200m east of the Ridge Showing, select sampling over an area measuring 300m by 70m yielded gold value ranging from 0.005 to 28.3 ppm gold and 4 to 603 ppm molybdenum in a quartz stockwork system hosted by felsic volcanic rocks. Galena Zone: The Galena zone covers an area measuring approximately 275m by 500m located in the southeast portion of the property. The mineralization trends northeast, is open-ended and characterized by Pb-Zn- Ag-Mo-Cu mineralization hosted in quartz vein stockwork and breccia containing galena and pyrite in outcrops and subcrop of bleached and silicified crystal tuffs.

All samples are selected samples of visibly mineralized rock that may not be representative of the mineralization. Channel sampling over a 2.5 m interval returned low concentrations of Pb-Zn-Ag-Mo-Cu. A soil geochemical survey (300m wide by 600m long) outlined an east-northeasterly trending multi- element geochemical anomaly with a tight cluster of anomalous Pb and Ag values in the central portion of the survey area.
