Vancouver, British Columbia - Huntsman Exploration Inc. (TSXV: HMAN; US: BBBMF) (the 'Company' or 'Huntsman') is pleased to announce the first assay results from its Phase I, 2021 drill program at the Canegrass Nickel Sulphide project in Western Australia. Multiple holes have intercepted Ni, Cu and Co mineralization near surface and at depth. The successful holes are located along a 3 km strike, indicating the system has significant growth potential (Figure 1). Of particular note, hole BBDD009 returned 41.1 m of favorable host rock with 31.2 m being mineralized including peaks of up to 2.8% Ni, 5.7% Cu and 0.15% Co, indicating a large layered intrusive complex. The recently completed 16-hole program follows up on the company's highly successful 2018 drilling. Further assays are pending, and the Company is currently in the planning phase for the next drill program.

Peter Dickie, President and CEO for Huntsman, commented, 'We are very pleased with this first round of assays. Not only did we discover mineralization at previously untested targets, but we hit wide intervals of mineralization, with significant high-grade peaks at the Sunline and Tulloch targets, where we have had tremendous success in the past. Just as importantly, we have intercepted mineralization at the new Tobin Bronze target, which is situated between Sunline and Tulloch. This speaks to the impressive potential for establishing a continuous trend over several km's.'
