News Release - Vancouver, British Columbia - November 22, 2023: GSP Resource Corp. (TSX-V: GSPR) (the “Company” or “GSP”) announces the successful completion of its surface diamond drill program at the Alwin Mine project (the “Alwin Property”). The 2023 drill program consisted of 5 drill holes and was designed to target potential extensions of known high grade copper zones at the Alwin Property located in the Highland Valley Copper Camp of British Columbia.
All five 2023 drill holes exhibited visual sulphide mineralization intervals interpreted to be part of or adjacent to the historic 4 Zone (Table 1; Figures 1, 2). Observed pyrite, chalcopyrite, bornite, and molybdenite mineralization exhibited structurally controlled (in the form of mm to cm-scale vein sets, fracture, and fault infill), as well as fine to coarsely disseminated, domanial and blebby textures.

Figure 2 AM-23-004 from 28.55 – 34.25 m exhibiting disseminations and veining of pyrite, chalcopyrite and bornite mineralization within intensely altered granodiorite
GSP’s President & CEO, Simon Dyakowski, commented: “Our team is excited to share the preliminary results of the 2023 drill program. We look forward to providing further updates as we receive analytical assay results for the five 2023 drill holes. The primary objective of the 2023 drill program was to drill test the Alwin 3D copper mineralization vein model recently developed for the high-grade past producing Alwin Copper Mine with a focus on evaluating the upper and lower extents of the unmined historic 4 Zone. The potential to further expand the multiple parallel polymetallic mineralization zones at Alwin remains a significant exploration upside that requires further confirmation drilling. Potential new zones previously identified from historic drill holes to the northwest, south and at depth of the historic mine area remain untested and will be targeted with additional drilling in 2024.”
A total of 5 HQ-size diamond drill holes were completed totaling 640 metres. Drilling was completed from three sites along a strike length of approximately 100 m including the upper and lower levels of the 4 Zone (Figure 3; Table 1). Drill core samples included implementation of Quality Assurance & Quality Control (QA/QC) procedures including the insertion of blanks, standards and core duplicates at regular intervals into the sample stream. Drill core samples were submitted to ALS Global Labs in North Vancouver and results will be released once available.

About the Alwin Mine Project: The Alwin Mine Copper-Silver-Gold property is approximately 575.72 hectares and is located on the semi-arid, interior plateau in south-central British Columbia. The historic underground mine was developed over 500 m long by 200 m wide by 300 m deep. Production took place between 1916 to 1981 from five major subvertical high-grade copper mineralization zones totaling 233,100 tonnes that milled 3,786 tonnes of copper, 2,729 kilograms of silver and 46.2 kilograms of gold. The average diluted head grade was 1.5% copper.
The Alwin Property is adjacent with the western boundary of Teck Corporation’s Highland Valley Mine, the largest open-pit porphyry copper-molybdenum mine in western Canada. Alteration and mineralization of the Highland Valley hydrothermal system extends westward from the Highland Valley mine onto the Alwin property (see GSP’s news release dated January 30, 2020).
