Orestone Mining Corp. (TSX Venture Exchange–Symbol: ORS) (Frankfurt: WKN: A2DWW7) (the “Company”) is pleased to announce the following exploration update on the Company’s Resguardo copper-gold porphyry/manto project located 75 kilometres NE of the City of Copiapo, Region III Northern Chile. Access is excellent along Highway 31 which is the main route to the La Coipa Mine and the northern Maricunga Gold Belt.

The contracting company Araya Hermanos S.A. of Copiapo has mobilized to the Resguardo property and to date completed improvements to the access roads and drill camp/staging site, drill pad preparation is well advanced. Perfo - Chile Ltda., an experienced and well-respected drill contractor has been authorized to mobilize to the site in preparation for drilling. Both contractors and the Company are coordinating with Sernageomin, the government agency controlling mining and exploration in Chile, to design and implement protocols to ensure the safety and health, especially with respect to Covid-19, for all the personnel of the Company and Contractors involved in the drilling program.

The drill program, consisting of a minimum of 1200 metres of reverse circulation drilling in up to five drill holes, will be the first drill test of a strong IP chargeability anomaly that has a strike length of 1400 metres, a width of 500-800 metres, and lies at a depth of 150-200 metres below the surface. This IP target is located immediately west of outcropping oxide copper mineralization grading 1 to 7% copper and 0.50 g/t gold that was mined historically in a series of pits and underground workings. Although this historic sampling is believed to have been competently carried out, it was not certified by a professional geologist, therefore the results are not NI43-101 compliant and cannot be relied upon.

The Resguardo project hosts copper-gold mineralization in mantos, skarns and breccia bodies (historic workings) accompanied by zones of strong hydrothermal alteration consisting of sericite-silica-clay with copper oxides at the junction of regional NNE trending low angle extensional faults with NW trending vertical faults in association with the large IP target.

Gary Nordin, P.Geo, a director of the Company, is a qualified person as defined by National Instrument 43-101, Mr. Nordin has reviewed and approved the technical information in this press release.

Resguardo in Chile, as well as Orestone’s Captain project in BC, are located in structural corridors adjacent to large copper gold deposits. In Chile Orestone’s Resguardo project is located in a NNE trending structural corridor 80 kilometres to the south of the El Salvador Mine and the past producing Potrerillos Mine, both large copper-gold porphyries. In Canada, the100% percent owned Captain project is located 30 km south of the Mt. Milligan Mine, a large copper-gold porphyry. On both projects copper and gold mineralization in association with extensive hydrothermal alteration demonstrate the potential for discovery of large copper-gold deposits.
