February 03, 2021. Vancouver, British Columbia – Fabled Silver Gold Corp. (“Fabled” or the “Company”) (TSXV:FCO; FSE: 7NQ) is pleased to announce the second diamond drill hole from the on-going 8,000 meter drill program on the Santa Maria Property in Parral, Mexico, with assays from two additional holes pending.
Peter J. Hawley, CEO and President, remarks, “As expected, the sulphide contents of the Santa Maria vein and structure has increased and intercepted over 10 ounces of silver over 6 meters. These exceptional high- grade results intercepted at -145 meters vertically below surface will be followed up by hole SM20-03 which was designed to hit the Santa Maria structure at a vertical depth of -350 meters below surface which will be the deepest hole ever drilled on the property.”
Peter Hawley continues, “The data being obtained from this fence of drill holes will not only target adding silver ounces to the overall resource but also allow us to interpret and model the behavior of this robust mineralized system for future drill hole success.”

Drill holes SM20-01, SM20-02 and SM20-03 are drilled on the same section with holes 02 and 03 targeting the sulphide intercept of the Santa Maria vein and structure, which is typically higher in grade due to metal values not being leached out by surface ground waters as commonly seen in oxide zones.
Drill hole SM20-02 was drilled at an angle of -65 degrees for a total hole depth of 232 meters. Drill hole SM20-03 was stationed 75 meters behind the drill station for holes 01-02 and drilled at an angle of -75 degrees for a total depth of 375 meters.
The Company has completed drill holes SM20-01 – 05 for a total of 1,414 meters. Holes SM20-04 and 05 have been sampled and submitted to ALS Chihuahua Laboratory for analysis. Hole SM 20-06 is in progress.

QA QC Procedure
Analytical results of sampling reported by Fabled Silver Gold represent core samples that have been sawn in half with half of the core sampled and submitted by Fabled Silver Gold staff directly to ALS Chemex, Chihuahua, Chihuahua, Mexico. Samples were crushed, split, and pulverized as per ALS Chemex method PREP-31, then analyzed for ME-ICP61 33 element package by four acid digestion with ICP-AES Finish. ME-GRA21 method for Au and Ag by fire assay and gravimetric finish, 30g nominal sample weight.
Over Limit Methods
For samples triggering precious metal over-limit thresholds of 10 g/t Au or 100 g/t Ag, the following is being used:
Au-GRA21 Au by fire assay and gravimetric finish with 30 g sample.
Ag-GRA21 Ag by fire assay and gravimetric finish.
Fabled Silver Gold monitors QA/QC using commercially sourced standards and locally sourced blank materials inserted within the sample sequence at regular intervals.
