SLAM Acquires New Cobalt-Nickel-Copper-Zinc Project

SLAM Exploration Ltd. (TSXV: SXL) ("SLAM" or the "Company") is pleased to announce it has acquired a new cobalt project by staking 67 units in 3 mineral claims.  The 1863 hectare property was acquired to cover a historic mineral discovery known as the Reids Gulch cobalt-nickel-copper-zinc occurrence.  The new property is located on a logging road 40 kilometres northwest of the Caribou mine operated by Trevali Mining Corp in New Brunswick, Canada.

According to provincial records, previous workers found mineralized float (boulders) grading 0.10% cobalt, 0.66% nickel, 0.10% copper and 5.0% zinc at Reids Gulch in 1972. Four trenches were dug by hand but the source of mineralized float was not located.  The occurrence is associated with an aeromagnetic anomaly detected by a later government survey.  The same survey suggests the presence of unmapped intrusive rocks at or near surface on the Reids Gulch property.    There is no record of any other work in the vicinity of this occurrence.  SLAM intends to mobilize its advance scout team at the start of the 2018 field season to re-locate this mineral occurrence and search for the bedrock source.

The Company also announces that pursuant to the Company's stock option plan, it has granted incentive stock options to its directors, officers, employees and consultants to purchase an aggregate of 1,220,000 common shares with an exercise price of $0.05 per share for up to five (5) years.
