Calgary, Alberta--(Newsfile Corp. - May 3, 2022) - West High Yield (W.H.Y.) Resources Ltd. (TSXV: WHY) ("West High Yield" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that, further to its news release dated April 5, 2022, gold drilling commenced on April 30, 2022 at the Company's Midnight Gold claim (the "Project Site") located in the Rossland Gold Camp area, British Columbia pursuant to its 2022 gold drill program (the "2022 Program").

2022 Program

As highlighted in the Company's news release dated April 5, 2022, West Kootenay Diamond Drilling Services Ltd. (the "Contractor"), who the Company signed a drilling contract with to carry out the 2022 Program, will drill holes of up 20,000 feet on the Project Site with the objective to test deeper areas considered as having a high potential to extend the footprint of the known mineralization on the Project Site. The Company anticipates being able to further define the gold mineralization on the Project Site in order to allow the Company to proceed with a mineral resource estimate pursuant to National Instrument 43-101 Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects.

Frank Marasco Jr., President & CEO of West High Yield commented as follows: "I am pleased that as soon as weather conditions permitted, the Contractor team mobilized all drill equipment and support infrastructure to start drilling so quickly at the Project Site. Building on the Company's previously released 2009 drill results, West High Yield has excellent targets to test and with this strong start to the 2022 Program, the Company fully expects to drill all the planned targeted holes with considerable promise and expand the mineralized footprint at the Project Site with higher-grade cores."

The Company looks forward to sharing the results of the 2022 Program as soon as assay results are available from a qualified third-party assay lab.
