ASCENDANT RESOURCES INTERSECTS 78.5 METERS @ 22.72% ZINC EQUIVALENT OF MASSIVE SULPHIDE IN VENDA NOVA NORTH DEPOSIT AT LAGOA SALGADA PROPERTY PORTUGAL

• Exceptional Results From 6 hole metallurgical Drill Campaign
• High-Grade Cu-Ag Transition Zone Defined At Venda Nova North Including 6m @ 9.06% CuEq 1
TORONTO, May 03, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Ascendant Resources Inc. (TSX: ASND) (OTCQB: ASDRF; FRA: 2D9) ("Ascendant" or the "Company”) reports assay results from 6 metallurgical holes drilled between November 2021 and March 2022 at the Venda Nova deposit at its Lagoa Salgada Project, Portugal. The scope of the program was designed to generate fresh representative samples to optimize the metal recoveries from the various ore types seen within the Venda Nova as part of the ongoing metallurgical testwork. Samples are being tested at Grinding Solutions Ltd. (“GSL”) in the United Kingdom.
Drill results currently being reported have outlined continuous intervals of high grade mineralized in the north zone throughout the different domains and several corridors of Fissural ore in the southern zone. The high-grade tenor of these results are expected to significantly increase the contained metal in both deposits.
In addition, the new holes (and incorporating previous results) have now identified a new subdomain within the massive sulphides in the north zone. This new subdomain is characterized by a secondary enrichment blanket, rich in both copper and silver. The increased understanding of the various domains is expected to improve the accuracy of metallurgical testing and subsequent results.
