Ascot Resources Intersects 10 Meters of 33.66 Grams Per Tonne Gold at Premier

In 2013 the Big Missouri area is being drill tested covering portions of the historic S1, Northstar, Calcite Cut and Province/Big Missouri zones to expand and demonstrate continuity of previous high grade intersections, as well as expand and improve drill definition in the resource area. The extent of surface showings and alteration in this area is approximately 3.0 square kilometres.

Drilling has also commenced in the Martha Ellen zone to expand the area outlined in the 2013 resource estimate. Drilling to date is demonstrating good continuity, particularly to the north. Drilling in the Sparky area of the adjacent Dilworth property is testing modelling from the 2012 work which indicated that mineralization is controlled by N-S striking steeply east dipping quartz breccia bodies. Drilling to date indicates that this interpretation continues to bring success.

In August 2013 the Ascot received $1,189,500 from the exercise of warrants. This combined with the gross $5,757,100 raised in recent private placements provides the Company with sufficient funding to take it well into 2014.

Quality Assurance/Quality Control

Analytical work is being carried out by ALS Lab Group. Quality assurance and quality control programs include the use of analytical blanks and standards and duplicates in addition to the labs own internal quality assurance program. All samples were analyzed using multi-digestion with ICP finish and fire assay with AA finish for gold. Samples over 100 ppm silver were reanalyzed using four acid digestion with an ore grade AA finish. Samples over 1,500 ppm silver were fire assayed with a gravimetric finish. Samples with over 10 ppm gold were fire assayed with a gravimetric finish. Identified or suspected metallic gold or silver are subjected to "metallics" assays. Sampling and storage are at the company's secure facility in Stewart with bi-weekly sample shipments made to ALS Labs Terrace prep site.
