Silver Spruce Receives Drill Permit for Cocula Gold Project

Silver Spruce Resources Inc. (TSXV:SSE, Frankfort:S6Q1) (“Silver Spruce” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce that it has received approval of its Informe Preventivo, the environmental application required for drilling at the Cocula gold project in Jalisco State, Mexico.

The permit allows for forty-seven (47) drill sites over the 750-metre strike length of the known mineralized area. The Company is preparing a drilling strategy to evaluate the current mineralization and new exploration targets identified in recent geological mapping.

“With surface access agreements and the drill permit in place, the Company is quickly advancing its technical studies to support a decision to earn a 100% interest in the project,” stated Karl Boltz, CEO of Silver Spruce. “We continue to check the boxes we require in order to prepare and execute a definitive purchase agreement with all parties for the project. So far, the results from surface geological mapping, chip and trench sampling and assaying, check assaying of the historical reverse circulation drill chip samples and re-interpretation of the drill sections, and recent completion of an independent 43-101 report have been quite positive.”

The occurrence of widespread gold mineralization at surface, including high grades of select samples (12.55 grams per tonne (g/t) gold (“Au”), 16.65 g/t Au and 23.7 g/t Au) assayed from rock and drill chip sampling, indicate robust gold mineralization along with significant silver and base metal values.

The Company will continue its due diligence designed to support a definitive purchase decision, subject to its binding Letter of Agreement with ProDeMin, SA de CV (“ProDeMin”).
