TSX Venture Exchange: NEV

Nevada Sunrise Gold Corp. ("Nevada Sunrise", or the " Company ") (TSXV: NEV) (OTC: NVSGF) is pleased to announce that the Nevada Division of Water Resources ("NDWR") has granted a one-year extension of time for the Company's Nevada water right Permit 44411 (the "Permit"). The Permit is owned by a subsidiary company of Nevada Sunrise and is currently the subject of a purchase and sale agreement with Cypress Development Corp. of Vancouver, BC Canada (TSXV: CYP) (OTCQB: CYDVF) (Frankfurt: C1Z1) ("Cypress").

The extension of time granted by the NDWR to August 28, 2022 supports a successful closing of the purchase of the Permit by Cypress, projected to occur in December 2021 (the "Transaction"). The Permit allows for the beneficial use of 1,770 acre/feet of water for mining, milling and domestic use per year and will form an essential component of Cypress' plans for the development of a new lithium mine in Esmeralda County .

The agreed purchase price for the Permit is US$3.0 million to be paid in a combination of cash and Cypress' common shares (see Nevada Sunrise news release dated May 10, 2021 ). The purchase price includes an initial non-refundable cash payment of US$150,000 (paid), and a final payment of US$2.85 million on receipt of all necessary approvals and transfer of the Permit to Cypress (the "Closing Payment"). The Closing Payment comprises US$2.0 million in cash and the issuance of Cypress' common shares to the value of US$850,000 (the "Share Issuance").

The Agreement is subject to terms and conditions customary for a transaction of this nature, including TSX Venture Exchange approval of the Share Issuance. Net proceeds received by the Company from the Transaction upon closing will be used to retire legal liabilities totaling approximately US$500,000 incurred during the water rights litigation from 2016 to 2019 (see Nevada Sunrise news releases dated May 16, 2016 and September 30, 2019 ), and payment of the balance owing to the underlying vendor of the Permit of approximately US$800,000 (for details of the Company's purchase of the Permit see Nevada Sunrise news release dated March 21 , 2016).

About the Permit

Nevada Sunrise, through its wholly-owned Nevada subsidiary company, Intor Resources Corporation ("Intor"), acquired the Permit from an underlying vendor in 2016. The Permit represents the largest volume of permitted water available in the Clayton Valley, which is a fully-appropriated hydrogeographic basin. With the exception of a single limited use permit, the NDWR has maintained that no new water is available within the Clayton Valley basin for appropriation. Nevada Sunrise has successfully defended the validity of the Permit in recent years, including negotiating a 2019 settlement agreement with Albemarle Corporation.
