VANCOUVER, BC, Aug. 21, 2020 /CNW/ - Sassy Resources Corporation ("Sassy" or the "Company") (CSE: SASY) is pleased to announce it has completed an 11-hole Phase I diamond drilling program at the Foremore Gold-Silver Project in Northwest British Columbia's Eskay Camp. Extensive field exploration continues across the 146 sq. km project, targeting multiple high-grade surface structures in advance of a now expanded Phase 2 drill program beginning in September.

Phase 1 drilling was followed up with borehole electromagnetic (BHEM) surveys in each zone along the multi-kilometer-long historic More Creek high-grade corridor, one of three major project areas the company is focused on. Initial drill holes were sent to MSA Labs in Terrace on a "rush" basis with assay results anticipated by the end of August.

Mr. Mark Scott, Sassy President and CEO, commented: "Our team did an exceptional job of executing the Phase 1 drill program on schedule, safely and on budget. Our crews and service partners have persevered through challenging weather and the COVID-19 pandemic with great effectiveness and agility. We very much look forward to sharing initial results of their collective efforts in the near future, and accelerating the pursuit of a potential new discovery in this richly endowed district."

Bramhall commented: "Sassy is quickly establishing itself as an aggressive and important new player in one of the most prolific gold camps in the world, and it's year-round exploration focus will help build the "lively, bold and full of spirit" Sassy brand. I'm excited to be part of the Sassy team and I look forward to expanding a high-quality investor base."
