Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - May 8, 2023) - Doubleview Gold Corp. (TSXV: DBG) (OTCQB: DBLVF) (FSE: A1W038) (the "Company or "Doubleview") is pleased to announce assay results of Hat Project drill holes H038 to H 043. The Hat Project is a large alkalic copper-gold porphyry-type deposit located in northwestern British Columbia that since 2011 has been explored by Doubleview utilizing technical surveys and diamond drilling operations.
Hat Property surveys and drilling have largely been focused to the Lisle copper-gold-cobalt-scandium mineral zone. Principal minerals are chalcopyrite, pyrite and magnetite hosted in volcaniclastic and gabbroic formations. The Lisle Zone has indicated dimensions of approximately 2.7 km by 1.7 km and is still being delimited laterally and at depth.
Drill holes H038, H039 and H040 explored north extensions of the Lisle Zone. Hole H041 explored the far east extension of the Lisle Zone. Holes H042 and H043 explored west extensions. Assays are summarized as follows:
North side of the Lisle Zone:
- Drill hole H038 intercepted 440.3 meters* with 0.82% Cu Equivalent** from surface, including 186.0 meters with 0.89% CuEq.
- Drill hole H039 intercepted 549.2 meters with 0.76% Cu Eq from near surface, including 146.7 meters with 0.87% CuEq.
- Drill hole H040 intercepted 561.2 meters with 0.78% Cu Eq from near surface, including 277.3 meters with 0.79% CuEq.
East side of the Lisle Zone:
- Drill hole H041: intercepted 485.0 meters with 0.81% Cu Eq from 66m depth, including 125.0 meters with 0.96% Cu Eq.
West side of the Lisle Zone:
- Drill hole H042: intercepted 179.0 meters with 0.76% Cu Eq from surface, including 49.0 meters with 0.92% Cu Eq.
- Drill hole H043: intercepted 280.2 meters with 0.79% Cu Eq from near surface, including 149.0 meters with 0.98% Cu Eq.
Note: (*) Drill hole intercepts are presented as drilled. The company does not have sufficient information to provide true deposit dimensions.
Drill hole locations are shown in Figures 1, 2, 3 and 4 and coordinates and other location details are presented in Table 1. Significant intercepts are presented in Table 2 and discussed below.
Farshad Shirvani, Doubleview's president and CEO, comments that "Certain metals, including copper, cobalt, silver, PGMs and scandium, have been identified as strategically important in the development of non-fossil fuel technology related to mitigation of climate change. Doubleview's polymetallic Hat property may become a significant source of strategically important metals. Assay results have shown many long intervals of elevated values of copper, cobalt, scandium and other critical metals, potentially making it a unique and valuable domestic resource to supply scarce metals required by advanced technologies. The Company currently is conducting metallurgical research into several innovative cost effective and environmentally friendly low temperature extraction processes that we believe will make Doubleview's Hat project an important source of critical metals that are vital to the growth and evolution of Canada's climate-related initiatives".

| Notes: - Metal equivalents should not be relied upon for future evaluations. - Drill hole intercepts included in this news release are core lengths that may or may not be true widths of mineralization. It is not possible to determine true widths. **Copper Equivalent (CuEq%) is estimated using the following metal values and equations: - *CuEq(%) =(Ag(g/t) x Price_Ag x Rec_Ag/31.1035 + Au(g/t) x Price_Au x Rec_Au/31.1035 + Co(%) x Price_Co x Rec_Co x 22.0462 + Cu(%)x Price_Cu x Rec_Cu x 22.0462 + Sc(g/t) x Price_Sc x Rec_Sc x Sc_con) / (Price_Cu x 22.0462) - Price_Ag = $22.20/troy oz, Price_Au=$1,812.14/ troy oz, Price_Co = $23.30/lb, Price_Cu = $3.84/lb, Price_Sc =$2.0/g - Rec_Ag= %68 , Rec_Au= %89, Rec_Co= %78, Rec_Cu= %84 . Rec_Sc= %56, Sc_con= Sc to Sc2O3 Conversion is 1.533 | |||||||||
Quality Assurance and Quality Control:
Given the importance of accurate assay results, extra measures are taken to ensure the quality of Hat Project assay data. As part of our QA/QC protocol, fresh sample pulps of 5% of the samples were re-assayed when results were deemed unsatisfactory. Replicate assays were conducted by a second accredited laboratory and showed possibly material variances, especially for critical metals in the Hat deposit. Confirmation work is ongoing and may result in further re-sampling and re-analysis.
The following map and sections show the location of the reported drill holes.
