Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - February 13, 2018) - Maritime Resources Corp. (TSXV: MAE) ("Maritime") is pleased to announce the last of the high grade gold results from the channel sampling program from the 2017 trenching at the Whisker Valley Project, located approximately 10 kilometres ("km") north of the Company's Hammerdown Gold Mine.

The remaining results from Jackson and Ben Veins are from the central part of the gold vein system that extends for over 250 metres east-west, consisting of the Ben, Jackson and Gary Veins. Deep overburden has limited the exposure of the veins in this central portion of the vein system resulting in intervals that could not be sampled However, where sample were taken there continues to be some very high-grade gold assays, similar to the results reported in earlier releases (see news released November 29, 2017, news released December 7, 2017 and news released January 22, 2018). The newly discovered vein system remains open in both directions along strike and at depth. (see figures below).

The most recent assays of the westerly extension of the Jackson Vein has returned composited grades of 10.22 g/t Au over a strike length of 23.75 metres, as well as 3.59 g/t Au over a strike length of 26.25 metres as outlined in the table below. Significant to note is the occurrence of numerous mineralized tension gash veins in the immediate hangingwall and footwall of the Jackson Vein. Assays from several of the tension gash veins returned assays of 15.73 g/t Au over 0.30 metres, 3.78 g/t Au over 0.36 metres as well as 20.38 g/t Au over 0.15 metres.

The most recent assays of the easterly extension of the Ben 2 Vein returned composited grades of 4.25 g/t Au over a strike length of 13.00 metres, 2.02 g/t Au over a strike length of 22.50 metres, 4.69 g/t Au over a strike length of 5 metres, as well as, 1.34 g/t Au over a strike length of 17.50 metres as outlined in the table below. The Ben 1 easterly extension is covered by deeper overburden.
