Barrian Mining Completes Drill Program with Two Final Holes Targeting the Previously Producing High Grade Silver-Gold Zones

VANCOUVER, Sept. 27, 2019 /PRNewswire/ - Barrian Mining Corp. ("Barrian" or the "Company") (TSX-V: BARI, OTCQB: BARRF, FSE: BM5) is pleased to announce that it has completed its summer drill program at Bolo, comprising 10 reverse circulation (RC) drill holes totaling 1,838 metres. Visible alteration indicating potential for mineralization was observed in all drill holes. The focus of drilling was to extend the envelope of high-grade gold mineralization at the South Main Fault Zone. The program was completed on time and on budget, and all drill samples are now with ALS Global for gold fire assay and multi-element analysis.

Maximilian Sali, CEO and Founder comments "We are excited to see the results of Barrian's first drill program at Bolo. Drill hole logging by our geological team identified encouraging zones of alteration and mineralization in all ten holes, and we are confident that it will translate into positive results essential to advancing the Project.

Seven drill holes, totaling 1,338 metres, were completed at the South Mine Fault Zone, testing the extent of mineralization down-dip and along strike. Previous RC drill intercepts at the South Mine Fault area include drill hole BL-38 that graded 3.24 grams-per-tonne (g/t) gold over 30.5 metres within a broader zone of mineralization averaging 1.28 g/t gold over 133 metres^*. One drill hole, totaling 177 metres, was completed between the South Mine Fault Zone and Northern Extension Zone, testing both the continuity of mineralization along strike between the known zones, and a linear conductive anomaly identified by the 2019 Induced Polarization and Resistivity geophysical survey. Two drill holes, totaling 323 metres, were completed at the historical Uncle Sam patented claim which has yielded high-grade silver plus gold channel rock chip samples including 3,146 g/t silver and 1.0 g/t gold over 2.6 metres, and 365 g/t silver and 1.9 g/t gold over 3.6 metres^** (Image #1). Uncle Sam hosts high grade silver plus gold mineralization at surface and in drill samples, and is the site of historical (circa 1880's) mine workings.

All drill holes completed during the summer program intersected zones of visible alteration typical of Carlin type gold deposit mineralization; including silicification and decalcification of Paleozoic carbonate rocks producing "jasperoids".  Intervals of strong iron oxide were also intersected, associated primarily with structural zones. Anomalous pathfinder element (arsenic and antimony) concentrations identified by handheld x-ray fluorescence (XRF) analysis correlate with visible zones of mineralization within the holes analyzed.

Forward-looking statements address future events and conditions and are necessarily based upon a number of estimates and assumptions. These statements relate to analyses and other information that are based on forecasts of future results, estimates of amounts not yet determinable and assumptions of management.
