("Sable" or the "Company") (TSXV: SAE | OTCQB: SBLRF) is pleased to announce that diamond drilling has commenced at its 100%-controlled Zorro Project in San Juan Province, Argentina. Drill mobilization was temporarily delayed following an unusual winter weather event that affected the Central Andes in San Juan Province, bringing significant snowfall and limiting access to the project area. Field activities resumed once access conditions improved, and drilling has now commenced safely. The delay is not expected to have a material impact on the planned program. The inaugural drill program is designed to test the Zorro Copper, Zorro North, and the recently identified IP conductivity-chargeability anomaly. Additional target evaluation and drill planning will continue at the Zorro Breccia and Zorro Gold targets as exploration progresses.   Subject to the results of the initial drilling and ongoing target-generation work, the Company may expand the drill program. Sable remains well funded, with more than C$13.5 million in cash and receivables, providing financial flexibility to complete the current drill program and continue advancing its exploration portfolio without the need for immediate financing. QUALIFIED PERSON Luis Arteaga M.Sc. P.Geo., Vice President Exploration, is the Company's Qualified Person as defined by NI 43-101. He has reviewed and approved the technical information in this news release. ABOUT THE ZORRO PROJECT Sable has recently consolidated the 8,460 ha Zorro Project through the signing of option agreements and the staking of open ground. The Zorro Project is located in the Frontal Cordillera of San Juan province, directly north of Minsud/South32’s Chita Valley Project, which includes two copper and polymetallic deposits: the Chinchillones deposit1 containing indicated resources of 188 Mt @ 0.41% CuEq (0.25% Cu, 0.11 g/t Au, 10.6 g/t Ag, 36 ppm Mo, 0.16% Zn) and inferred resources of 573 Mt @ 0.36% CuEq (0.22% Cu, 0.09 g/t Au, 9.0 g/t Ag, 93 ppm Mo, 0.11% Zn); and the Chita South Porphyry Deposit1 containing indicated resources of 33.1 Mt @ 0.43% Cu and inferred resources of 8.6 Mt @ 0.40% Cu. Sable’s Don Julio Project, which includes four active porphyry targets (Gringa, Morro, Punta Cana, and Tocota) is located 21 km west of the Zorro Project. The potential of the Zorro Project was recognized through Sable’s regional target generation program. The project contains a number of mineral occurrences with associated historical workings, spatially surrounding a strong magnetic anomaly measuring some 7 km by 4 km, which appears to be sourced to a diorite stock that intrudes Carboniferous sediments and Permo-Triassic granites typical of the Argentine Frontal Cordillera in the San Juan region.
