Red Metal Resources Announces Appointment of Exploration Manager

Thunder Bay, December 1, 2021 - Red Metal Resources Ltd. (CSE: RMES) (OTC Pink: RMES) (the "Company" or "Red Metal") is pleased to announce the appointment of Mr. Carlos Chamale as Exploration Manager at the Carrizal Property in the Coastal Cordillera, Chile.

Mr. Chamale is an experienced Canadian geologist with over fifteen years in the mineral exploration industry across multiple commodities and geological terranes, with a strong focus on copper and gold exploration, from project generation to property assessments and resource definition. Mr. Chamale has worked for various junior and major companies in Canada and Latin America, most recently with Fortescue Metals Group leading their exploration efforts in Colombia specifically for copper and gold. Mr. Chamale's responsibilities at Fortescue included country-wide terrane assessment, design and execution of regional exploration programs, and third-party reviews. Mr. Chamale also worked in Nicaragua with Condor Gold Plc on deposit-scale geological models for resource estimation and regional geochemistry.

Ms. Jeffs, the President and CEO of Red Metal, commented, "We are extremely pleased that Carlos will be joining our team. Carlos's background and wide range of experience will be a significant benefit to Red Metal. Carlos's Latin American experience adds the depth to our Chilean exploration team to aggressively advance our Carrizal Property."

Carrizal Property

Red Metal's primary property is the Carrizal copper-gold-cobalt property in the Coastal Cordillera of Chile's III Region. The Carrizal Property consists of two projects, Farellon and Perth, and totals 3,278 hectares.

The Farellon Project lies along strike from the historic Carrizal Alto mine and was historically mined as part of the Carrizal Alto mining complex in the late 1800's. Historical records indicate that copper mining commenced at Carrizal Alto in the 1820's and continued on a significant scale, mostly by British companies, until 1891 when disastrous flooding occurred and mines closed. It is estimated that during this period, in excess of 3 million tonnes with grades in excess of 5% copper and widths of eight metres was extracted as well a large quantity of direct shipping ore at 12% copper. At one time there was a considerable body of tails present to support these figures but the high gold and copper prices in recent years lead to the trucking and reprocessing of this material.

Drilling programs on the Farellon Project between 1996 and 2013 have totalled 6,992 metres and covered a 1.5 kilometres strike length of mineralized veins that were historically part of the Carrizal Alto Mining District. A further 3 kilometres strike length of vein has been identified and sampled on surface and remains to be tested at depth in future drill programs. Significant results of historic RC drilling are summarized in the table below.

Table 1 - Significant drill results 1996-2011 ⁽¹⁾

(1) Widths are drill indicated core length as insufficient drilling has been undertaken to determine true widths at this time. Average grades are calculated with un-capped assays as insufficient drilling has been completed to determine capping levels for higher grade intercepts. FAR-11 and FAR-09 holes were drilled by Red Metal Resources. FAR-96 holes were drilled by a previous operator, the results of which have not been verified by the QP.
(2) Drillholes FAR-11-009 and 010 had diamond drill for the lower half of the hole and significant intercepts are in core, not RC chips.
