Northern Shield Resources Inc. ("Northern Shield" or the "Company") (TSXV: NRN) is pleased to announce the results from a recently completed stream sediment sampling program at the Shot Rock Property, Nova Scotia (the "Property"). Shot Rock is being explored through Northern Shield's wholly-owned subsidiary, Seabourne Resources Inc., which can earn up to an 80% interest in the Property.

Significantly, four of the stream sediment samples assayed greater than 500 ppb Au (679 and 723 ppb) with two over 1,000 ppb Au (1,015 and 1,045 ppb). Three of these samples, along with three other gold anomalous samples (25-100 ppb), form a distinct zone approximately 4.5 kilometres long. This zone includes the stream from which the gold-bearing quartz boulders disclosed in press release dated July 24(th), 2018 were found. The zone is located parallel to, and within 1 kilometre of the Trans-Canada Highway. Maps showing the anomalous samples will be available shortly on the Company's website at www.northern-shield.com.

"We are very encouraged to see these highly anomalous stream sediment samples clustered in an area that had already caught our attention. The grades and distribution of the gold anomalous stream sediment samples suggest there is more gold to be found," suggests Northern Shield President and CEO, Ian Bliss.

The program is being overseen by Christine Vaillancourt, P. Geo., the Company's Chief Geologist and a Qualified Person under National Instrument 43-101. Samples were analyzed by ALS Global in Sudbury, Ontario and in Vancouver, BC, for Au by Fire Assay with ICP-AES finish and base metals by four acid digestion and ICP-AES. All standards and duplicates by ALS Global meet targeted values.
