Northern Lights Resources Corp.: Medicine Springs Project - Completion of Geophysics Survey Work

Vancouver, January 7, 2019 - Northern Lights Resources Corp. (CSE Symbol:NLR) (the "Company") is pleased to announce the completion of geophysical survey work on its Medicine Springs silver-zinc-lead project located in Elko County, Nevada.

As part of its 2018 field season work on the Medicine Springs project (see NLR announcement dated Nov 7 "Medicine Springs Project Update and Exploration Plan"), NLR has completed two geophysical survey programs on the Medicine Springs Project.


CSAMT/IP Reinterpretation

In 1997-1998, Cominco American Inc. carried out Controlled Source Audio-frequency Magnetotellurics (CSAMT) and Induced Polarization (IP) geophysical surveys over the Medicine Springs Property. Cominco completed nine lines of CSAMT and a single line of IP.

Northern Lights engaged Zonge to complete a 2D inversion of the Cominco geophysical data.


Aeromagnetic Survey

In August 2018, Northern Lights engaged MWH Geosurveys to acquire aeromagetic data over the entire license area. The data was acquired using a quad-copter drone and a towed cesium vapour magnetometer. Line spacing was 50m and the flying height was nominally 30m. The magnetometer sampled at 10Hz resulting in a nominal along ground sample interval of 0.7m. A total of 810 line km of aeromagnetic data was acquired.

The results of both the CSAMT/IP and Aeromagnetic surveys were reviewed by GeoExplore Pty Ltd, an Australian based geophysical consulting firm.

While the known mineralization of the Medicine Springs Project does not have a clear geophysical signature, the survey results have identified six key target zones for mineralization based on structure and proximity to interpreted intrusive dykes. These targets lie at an approximate depth range of several hundred meters from surface. The geophysical target comprise 2 types, flat lying carbonate replacement targets and sub-vertical target associated with intrusive dykes. The recommended geophysical targets, drill hole locations and the location of the interpreted intrusive dykes are illustrated on Figure 1.

Medicine Springs Target Zones

M-1 is the SSW extension of the Golden Pipe trend in an area that lacks drilling.

M-2 lies adjacent to the Golden Pipe trend and from a structural perspective has many analogues with Golden Pipe and the northern half of the anomaly is coincident with strong Pb-Zn soil anomaly identified by USMX in the 1980s.

M-3 follows a fault which has an ENE-WSW orientation, and which has already attracted several historical very shallow drill holes.

M-4 is a parallel structure which does not appear to have attracted past attention.

M-5 is the structure identified in the CSAMT which crosses a line between the Golden Pipe trend and drill hole JS-105.

M-6 covers a structure parallel to the Golden Pipe trend which is associated with magnetic zones, interpreted as intrusive dykes.

Northern Lights is waiting for the assay results for the Ionic geochemical soil sampling program that was completed in November 2018.

A future compilation of the detailed surface mapping and outcrop sampling, geophysics, historic exploration drilling data and the geochemical soil survey results is expected to further define exploration targets for both the oxide and carbonate replacement target zones.

There are two key exploration targets for the Medicine Springs Project:

Further definition of the large zone of oxide mineralization identified by previous drilling campaigns (depth to min of 180 meters); and

The discovery of an economic carbonate replacement sulphide deposit at depth below the oxide zone.

Northern Lights, Head of Geology, Gary Artmont commented "The results of the geophysical surveys are further support for the continued exploration and drilling of the Medicine Springs Project. There are six key target zones identified in addition to the deep zone of partially oxidized mineralization extending from surface to a minimum of 180 metres depth observed in drill hole JS-105 which is located approximately 900 metres NNE of the Golden Pipe prospect."
