VR Initiates Exploration Plans for its Bonita porphyry copper-gold project in Nevada

VR Resources Limited ("VR" or the "Company", TSXV: VRR) is pleased to announce that it has executed the contract and commenced field planning with DIAS Geophysical Ltd. for the application of its DIAS32, 3D-array IP and resistivity technology in a ground-based DCIP survey over the Copper Queen target on the Company's Bonita porphyry copper-gold project in Nevada.

The geophysical proposal and agreement was scoped last fall. The Company has worked with DIAS on three previous surveys on three other properties in Nevada, and also at the Silverback project in Ontario. That experience and relationship was the basis for optimization of the survey design for Copper Queen.

Dr. Michael Gunning, Chief Executive Officer of the Company commented: "On the heels of the successful, oversubscribed $3.15M financing led by Centurion One Capital Corp., VR is immediately putting its exploration plan into action on our two principal polymetallic porphyry projects in Nevada.

We believe the DIAS32 technology in its 3D-array DCIP ground surveys is industry-leading. We understand the capabilities of the system based on our long-standing and working relationship with the technical team at DIAS via our previous surveys. As such, we are excited to see what this survey can do for precise drill target definition at Bonita.

The goal of the survey is clear: to provide a precise exploration vector for follow-up drilling based on the surface mapping and exploration surveys completed to date by VR, and in particular, the porphyry-style copper-sulfide veining intersected in our initial, reconnaissance-style drilling at Copper Queen in 2017 (see drill core photo in Figure 1 below), for which there is a clear association in anomalous copper-gold geochemistry.

An array of field logistics parameters will dictate the exact timing for the survey, but the message here is simply that the ball is rolling, and we are excited about the potential for new DCIP 3D modeling for Copper Queen soon."
