Northern Superior Reports 2.11 G/T Gold Over 27.0 Metres, 1.28 G/T Gold Over 22.4 Metres and 1.48 G/T Gold Over 16.0 Metres From the Arctic Fox Extension and the Corsac Fox Zone of the Philibert Project

TORONTO, ON / ACCESSWIRE / June 13, 2023 / Northern Superior Resources Inc. ("Northern Superior" or the "Company") (TSXV:SUP) (OTCQB:NSUPF) is pleased to report assay results from the Arctic Fox Extension and the Corsac Fox Zone (see Figures 1 and 2) on the Philibert gold property (see press release dated January 11, 2023), located 60 kilometres southwest of Chibougamau, Quebec.

Highlights Include (Grades uncut; lengths measured along hole, Table 1):

• DDH PB-22-331 returned 2.11 g/t Au over 27.0 metres from 127.0 to 154.0 metres, including 27.37 g/t Au over 1.5 metres and 5.75 g/t Au over 1.0 metres from the downdip extension of the Corsac Fox zone;
• DDH PB-22-329 returned 0.88 g/t Au over 16.0 metres from 15.0 to 31.0 metres from the surface extension of the Corsac Fox Zone;
• DDH PB-22-327A returned 1.28 g/t Au over 22.4 metres from 335.0 to 357.4 metres, including 1.71 g/ t Au over 6.0 metres and 5.82 g/t Au over 2.4 metres from the Arctic Fox extension-Corsac Fox area;
• DDH PB-22-327A returned 1.48 g/t Au over 16.0 metres from 299.0 to 315.0 metres, including 2.20 g/t Au over 10.0 metres (previously reported March 11, 2022) from the Arctic Fox Extension-Corsac Fox area;
• DDH PB-22-389 returned 1.57 g/t Au over 5.0 metres from 75.0 to 80.0 metres, Arctic Fox Extension-Corsac Fox area; and,
• DDH PB-22-401 returned 1.23 g/t Au over 6.0 metres from 27.0 to 33.0 metres, near surface extension of the Arctic Fox Extension-Corsac Fox.

Simon Marcotte, President & Chief Executive Officer of Northern Superior, commented: "The results reported today demonstrate the significant scale of the mineralized corridor of the Philibert Trend which continues to grow the size of near surface mineralization. We see a clear opportunity to extend near surface mineralization along strike, down dip and down plunge to the east-southeast where results indicate that the size of the mineralized system has potential to be much larger. Results also highlight significant gold intersections near surface and at depth along areas with very selective historic sampling. We are very keen to expand the footprint of mineralization along the northwestern and northern limit of the defined mineralized corridor."

Drill Program

Northern Superior is reporting herein results for eleven drill holes which tested the northwestern hanging wall of the 3-kilometre mineralized corridor of the Philibert trend. Please refer to Table 1 and Figures 1 to 4 for the results reported today. To date, the Corsac Fox Zone has been defined 800 metres along strike and up to 250 metres in vertical depth (see Figure 1,2 and 4 and Table 1).

Results for the Corsac Fox Zone include PB-22-331 returning 2.11 g/t Au over 27.0 metres from 127.0 to 154.0 metres, located downdip of hole PB-22-329, included in today's release, returning 0.88 g/t Au over 16.0 m from 15.0 to 31.0 metres (see Figures 1-3). Other results for the Corsac Fox Zone were previously reported and included hole PB-22-332, returning 1.17 g/t Au over 11.0 metres starting at 55.0 metres, PB-22-327A, returning 0.89 g/t Au over 22.9 metres starting at 130.1 metres, PB-22-325, returning 1.64 g/t Au over 5.3 metres starting at 23.7 metres, and PB-22-324, returning 0.95 g/t Au over 9.0 metres starting at 98.0 metres. Historically the Corsac Fox Zone was only selectively sampled, and the Company is planning to complete further sampling on the historic core. Mineralization is hosted in a quartz rich gabbro named the Philibert Horizon, part of the Obatogamau Formation, and focused within west-northwest to northwest trending silicified shear zones with moderate dips to the northeast. Mineralization is characterized by strong silicification, ankerite, sericite and fuchsite alteration, quartz-carbonate-tourmaline, and dark grey quartz veining with rare visible gold and up to 2% to 5% disseminated pyrite and pyrrhotite mineralization. The lower contact is marked by a fault within a graphitic argillite horizon.

Eight drill holes tested the western extension of what is interpreted as the Arctic Fox Zone with drill hole PB-22-327A returning 1.48 g/t Au over 16.0 metres from 299.0 to 315.0 metres, including 2.20 g/t Au over 10.0 metres (previously reported on March 11, 2022) and 1.28 g/t Au over 22.4 metres from 335 to 357.4 metres. Most of the other holes drilled in this area tested mineralization near surface, including PB-22-401, returning 1.23 g/t Au over 6.0 metres from 27 to 33 metres, PB-22-384, returning 1.08 g/t Au over 7.9 metres from 20.0 to 27.9 metres, PB-22-389 returning 1.57 g/t Au over 5.0 metres from 75.0 to 80.0 metres, and PB-22-416, returning 0.94 g/t Au over 5.4 metres from 23.5 to 28.9 metres. Drill hole PB-22-392 was drilled too far south, only intersecting the southern surface limit of the mineralized zone and drill hole PB-22-386 intersected a weakly anomalous zone but deviated from the planned target. Mineralization is hosted in a silicified basalt part of the Obatogamau Formation and focused within west--northwest to northwest trending silicified shear zones with moderate dips to the northeast. Mineralization is characterized by silicification and ankerite alteration, quartz-carbonate-tourmaline, and dark grey quartz veining with up to 2% to 5% disseminated pyrite and pyrrhotite mineralization.

Sampling and Laboratory

True widths of the intercepts reported in this press release have yet to be determined but are estimated to be 60% to 90% of reported core lengths. All NQ-size split core assays reported for 2022 were obtained by fire assay with atomic absorption finish and samples returning values over 10 ppm Au are re-analyzed, utilizing standard Fire Assay-Gravimetric methods. Samples were shipped to AGAT Laboratories with sample preparation done in Val-d'Or, Québec and sample analysis done in Mississauga, Ontario. The quality assurance and quality control protocol include insertion of blank and standard every 25 samples on average, in addition to the regular insertion of blank, duplicate, and standard samples inserted by AGAT Laboratories during the analytical process.

The technical content and scientific aspects of this press release have been reviewed and approved by Mrs. Adree DeLazzer, P. Geo., a Qualified Person as defined by the National Instrument 43-101. Mrs. DeLazzer is Vice-President Exploration of Northern Superior and is not considered independent.
