Toronto, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - March 23, 2022) - Roscan Gold Corporation ("Roscan" or the "Company") (TSXV: ROS) (FSE: 2OJ) (OTCQB: RCGCF) is pleased to announce positive Reverse Circulation ("RC") drilling results at Kabaya (Figure 1) from an additional 53 holes totaling 5,969 meters (m) at Kabaya.

In order to both discover new gold zones outside our existing resource area and to expand the potential gold resources in our existing resource at Kabaya, Roscan designed an aggressive RC drilling program. This drilling was comprised of 60% step-out holes to test for new gold zones along the North South strike from KB1 to cover the underexplored zone between KB1 and KB3. The remaining 40% of the RC drill holes were focused on an infill drilling program in KB1 and KB2. The excellent gold recovery of 95.65% in saprolite from the metallurgical test work (News release of October 25, 2021) with near surface mineralization points to the economic potential of these targets.

The current drilling results at KB3 outlines an estimated strike length of 200m, a width of 80m and a 100m vertical depth. This zone is open at depth and laterally. There is an 850m gap between KB3 and KB1-2, the main gold mineralization that is yet to be fully tested.

The infill holes at KB1 and KB2 enlarge the different grade envelopes and has infilled some areas to expand the continuity of the gold mineralization. KB1 and KB2 have a combined strike length of 985m, a horizontal width of 180m wide and still open to 225m vertical depth at KB1.

Nana Sangmuah, President and CEO, stated, "Drilling at Kabaya continues to expand the footprint of the gold mineralization which bodes well for the pending maiden resource in Q2. We are excited by the fresh rock intercepts at KB3 that points to a larger mineralized system within the 850-meter gap zone between KB1-2 and KB3, which is yet to be fully tested.

We are currently drilling additional RC and Diamond holes at our Mankouke, Disse and Kandiole targets and look forward to reporting additional assay results as they become available."

The gold mineralization at Kabaya (Figure 2-3) is disseminated and associated with a strong kaolinization after the saprolite process going deep between the fresh foot and hanging walls. From the few fresh rock observations, this powdery zone corresponds with the albite-dolomite-pyrite-arsenopyrite alteration in a volcano-sedimentary sequence. The gold host rock is an alternate between tuffaceous and greywacke facies. As in the Mankouke gold deposit, the carbonaceous bedded mudstone constitutes the folded footwall. The gold zone is also limited by an NNE-SSW weakness, fractured, and sheared zones in hanging and foot walls contacts.

The Kabaya Deposit is part of a prolific regional Siribaya-Mankouke-Seko structural corridor (Figure 4). The Kabaya gold orebody is likely on an NNE-SSW splay structure contouring the Disse quartz diorite intrusion from the VTEM (Versatile Time Domain Electromagnetic) airborne survey interpretation. The Roscan large land package covers well this major auriferous structure over 25km, including the splays around Disse intrusive, occurring new gold discoveries.

Drilling and Analytical Protocol

Roscan uses Geodrill Reverse Circulation (RC) to drill until maximum 170m to reach the target. In 2021, (holes RCDBS21-026 to RCDBS21-048), the samples have sent for preparation and 50g fire assays to Bureau Veritas Bamako laboratory and since January 2022, the samples are sent to the ALS Laboratories in Bamako, Mali and assayed at their analytical facilities to Ouagadougou for 2 kg Bottle Roll with atomic absorption finish including tail analysis for results more than 0.05ppm. Roscan applied industry-standard QA/QC procedures to the program using reference materials, blanks, standards, and duplicates.
