Toronto, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - April 19, 2017) - RJK Explorations Ltd. (TSXV: RJX.A) ("RJK") has begun Phase
2 of a 5,000 metre drill program at its 100% owned Maude Lake Gold deposit, located on the Pipestone fault within the
Timmins-Matheson gold corridor.
Phase 1 of the drilling program was successful in further defining the 5 Zone at depths of less than 100 metres with
intersections of 2.5 metres of 9.05 grams gold/t and 14 metres of 5.37 grams gold/t ( true width are not determined at this
time)
RJK believes the real potential for increasing the historic resource at the property lies with down plunge drilling below the
330 metre level, where historic drilling had returned high grade gold intersections, including 8.08 metres of 19.54 grams gold/t at
the 375 metre level and 2.53 metres of 12.34 grams gold/t at the 475 metre level. The initial drill holes in this Phase 2 drilling
will be targeting these areas.

Quality Assurance/Quality Control
RJK Explorations Ltd. has incorporated a rigorous QA/QC program for all its drill core handling and sampling procedures. A chain
of custody is maintained for the drill core from the drill to core shack to assay lab. The samples are marked and the core is sawn
with attention to the same half of the sawn core always placed in the sample bag. Certified standards, blanks and reject duplicate
are placed in within every sample batch. A batch consists of a specific number of samples dependant on the tray size of the lab
performing the analysis. The standard and duplicate are inserted randomly within the sample batch while the blank is inserted
immediately after a sample that may be anomalous. The blank material is sawn core from a unit that appears un-mineralized with gold
in order to be able to test the crushing/pulverizing cleaning process.
