A 50,000-metre drill campaign is in progress and anticipated to conclude in early 2023. AuTECO intends to continue the dual focus on both in-mine Resource expansion at Pickle Crow and regional discovery that will provide the next generation of Resource growth for the company.

AuTECO Chief Executive Officer Darren Cooke said:

“These results provide strong evidence to support our view that we have an entire mineral district, which includes the Pickle Crow deposit.

“We will drill these outstanding regional targets over coming months as part of our strategy to continue growing the inventory, with a Resource update set for early 2023.

“AuTECO is fully funded to continue the exploration and growth campaign with two rigs planned to drill for the remainder of 2022”.

Details of Latest Results:

This release contains results from both near-mine and regional exploration activities. All work conducted has been outside of the current 2.23Moz at 7.8 g/t Inferred gold Resource (see ASX announcement dated 15 February 2022 for details).

AuTECO manages ~500km[2] of tenure in the Pickle Lake district. The company continues to pursue a dual track strategy of advancing both the near-mine Resource growth and regional exploration concurrently.

Regional Exploration Results

Regional exploration activities in recent months have focused on regional mapping, sampling and target generation. Due to climatic conditions and snow covering the surface, the field mapping season is between April and October.

Summer Seasonal Field Activities

Extensive mapping and sampling campaigns have been undertaken on the 500km[2] of exploration tenure, with a focus on the Tarp Lake and Cohen MacArthur shear zones. Numerous previously unknown veins structures have been identified. Rock chip sampling of veins has yielded highly anomalous results (Figure 1).

The Metcalf target, located on the Tarp Lake Shear returned rock chip results including 569.0g/t, 27.4g/t and 9.0g/t gold. This surface vein expression confirms the presence of a significant vein system, with historical drill intersections including 1.8m @ 66.9g/t and 1.8m @ 28.5g/t gold.

Approximately 3km south of Metcalf on the Tarp Lake shear, a rock chip sample of 35.5g/t gold was collected from an outcropping vein. These results confirm that the Tarp Lake Shear is a major regional gold bearing structure with strong potential for a significant discovery.

Other areas mapped and sampled include Cohen MacArthur target, with anomalous rock chips of up to 3.8g/t gold returned.

Preparations are in progress to drill test both the Metcalf, Tarp Lake and Cohen MacArthur propsects during the winter drill campaign.

Geophysical Data Acquisition

Lease wide collection of magnetic data is in progress over the entire 500km[2] of exploration tenure under management by AuTECO. Helicopter based acquisition is being flown conducted at 100 metre line spacing over the regional areas and 50 metre spacing near the main Pickle Crow deposit. Although ~60% complete, preliminary imaging shows a marked improvement in comparison to the existing data set (Figure 2).

Near-Mine Results

Drilling has continued to focus on Resource growth potential in the historic Shaft 1 and Shaft 3 areas of Pickle Crow (Figure 3).

==> picture [475 x 412] intentionally omitted <==

Figure 3: Summary map showing AuTECO near mine drilling intersections. Please note that results from this release are highlighted in beige.

Recent drilling focused on extensions to the Vein 5 vein structure. Historically, more than 200,000 ounces of gold was extracted from the high-grade vein, with the continuous structure averaging approximately 0.5 metres in width. The recent AuTECO drilling has successfully demonstrated the vein continues along strike beyond the extents of historical mining. Significant intersections include: o 0.4m @ 91.0 g/t gold from 149.0m AUDD0319

• 0.4m @ 32.2 g/t gold from 30.4m AUDD0327

• 1.8m @ 8.3 g/t gold from 50.7m AUDD0330

Near-mine exploration drilling has been conducted to test for mineralisation hosted in banded iron formation (BIF). Mineralisation within the BIF occurs in veins surrounded by a gold-bearing sulphide halo. The widths observed in historical intersections indicate the potential for bulk mining extraction within BIF style mineralisation. Recent BIF-hosted results include:

• 1.5m @ 20.2 g/t gold from 488.0m AUDD0298 (BIF Hosted)

• 2.2m @ 5.5 g/t gold from 371.0m AUDD0294 (BIF Hosted)

• 3.8m @ 3.5 g/t gold from 339.2m AUDD0278 (BIF Hosted)

• 5.0m @ 1.9 g/t gold from 294.0m AUDD0286 (BIF Hosted)

• 8.0m @ 1.8 g/t gold from 245.0m AUDD0281 (BIF Hosted)

FORWARD WORK PLAN

The company intends to continue with a dual-tracked approach to drilling for the remainder of 2022, with a combination of extensional in-mine Resource growth drilling and regional exploration. AuTECO is in the midst of 50,000m drill campaign, of which ~20,000m is planned for early stage targets outside of the current 2.23Moz Resource.

In order to preserve cash, the number of drill rigs has been reduced to two.

As site accessibility improves in winter, the exploration focus from November 2022 through March 2023 will shift to regional exploration in addition to near mine targets that are inaccessable during summer, such as Tyson.

An updated Resource estimate remains on track for delivery in early 2023.

For and on behalf of the Board.

		1933 and 1938 and completed extensive
		underground development. Winoga Patricia Gold
		Mines was created in 1936 and drilled 73 surface
		diamond drill holes on a pie-shaped property located
		between PCGM’s holdings and the Albany River
		Mines ground to the east. A mine shaft was
		subsequently sunk on the property in 1938. That
		same year, PCGM took over ownership of both
		Albany River Mines and Winoga Patricia Gold Mines
		through a new company called Albany River Gold
		Mines Ltd. It is believed that the Winoga Patricia Gold
		Mines shaft later became the No.3 Shaft of the Pickle
		Crow operation. The Cohen- MacArthur zone,
		located 2km to the north of the developing Pickle
		Crow mine, was discovered in 1933. A total of 14
		surface diamond holes were drilled at Cohen-
		MacArthur in the winter of 1936. This property was
		optioned by PCGM in 1938, With the acquisition of
		the Cohen-MacArthur claims, PCGM became one of
		the largest land holders in the Pickle Lake area. The
		GSC completed a regional synthesis of the Pickle
		Crow Greenstone belt during this period as well.
		Ground and airborne geophysical surveys have been
		completed over all or parts of the Pickle Crow
		property at various times during its early history. A
		dip-needle survey completed in 1936 on the Pickle
		Crow property was useful in tracing out the bands of
		the iron formation. A detailed magnetic survey was
		carried out over the property by Teck (or its
		predecessor companies) around 1960. The property
		then underwent a series of ownerships until it
		became wholly owned by Teck in 1971. The property
		then sat dormant until 1973 when Pickle Crow
		Exploration Ltd. Reviewed the economics of
		reopening the mine. In 1978, a merger between
		Pickle Crow Explorations Ltd. And four other
		companies saw Teck’s ownership reduced to 44.6%
		and a new exploration company called Highland-
		Crow Resources Ltd. Highland Crow went on to
		option the property to Galant Gold Mines Limited in
		1979. Gallant performed a VLF_EM geophysical
		survey and drilled 47 surface diamond drill holes for
		7,356m. The only known soil geochemical survey
		done on the Pickle Crow property was completed for
		Gallant in 1983. Soil values ranged from 10 to
		12,000ppb with the high values attributed to mine
		tailings and cultural anomalies. In 1983 the property
		returned to Highland-Crow. Noramco Mining Corp.
		bought Highland-Crow in 1988. Between 1985 and
		1987 Highland-Crow completed line-cutting,
		magnetometer and IP, geophysical surveying,
		geological mapping, surface trenching, diamond
		drilling and environmental baseline studies. Noramco
		drilled surface exploration holes, completed
		geophysical surveys and commenced dewatering of
		the No.1 shaft. Noramco drilled 286 surface diamond
		drill holes for 46,189m and 79 underground holes for
		9,341m. Noramco also commissioned Historic (non-
