CRESTVIEW EXPLORATION ANNOUNCES PRIORITY DRILL TARGETS AT THE ROCK CREEK AND DIVIDE GOLD PROJECTS IN ELKO COUNTY, NEVADA

Crestview Exploration Inc. has identified high-priority drill targets at the Rock Creek and Divide gold-silver projects in the Tuscarora Mountains of Elko county, Nevada, for the upcoming summer-fall drilling season. These high-priority targets include 12 proposed drill holes at Rock Creek (P1 through P12) for an approximate total footage between 13,000 feet and 16,500 feet, and three proposed drill holes at Divide (PD1 through PD3) for an approximate total of 3,500 feet to 4,500 feet. Please refer to the attached table for the proposed drill hole locations, depths and approximate orientation.

Drill hole locations were chosen from a target-rich environment utilizing a number of geological indicators captured to date, especially mapped structural and alteration data and HSAMT interpreted sections.

The drill targets were chosen to accomplish several objectives, including:

• Testing areas of anomalous and economic gold and silver grades in surface sampling and historic drill results;
• Crossing mapped structures and structural intersections, and determining the potential of the interpreted nested caldera;
• Determining the potential for disseminated mineralization in the Paleozoic sequence at depth, and
• Sampling geophysical anomalies generated by the 2022 HSAMT survey.

Based on surface alteration and sampling, shallow resistance highs may represent silica - sulfide mineralization. The deep low resistance zones may indicate carbonate dissolution associated with sediment hosted disseminated gold mineralization.

Crestview aims to begin testing these high-priority targets in the 2023 field season with an approximate 10,000' mixed RC-Core drill program.

Crestview's VP Exploration, Justin Lowe, commented, "We have identified strong targets where we see a lot of potential which we are very excited to drill. The program will make considerable progress in our evaluation at Divide with the 3 proposed holes. The 12 targets at Rock Creek cover areas of high potential across the entire length of the property. The program is designed to simultaneously test areas with extensive surface indicators, HSAMT-generated anomalies, and the potential of the underlying metasedimentary sequence to host disseminated mineralization. With the considerable land expansion at Divide and the acquisition of Falcon in 2022, Crestview is in a great position to make and pursue a discovery at our Tuscarora Complex [Rock Creek, Falcon, Divide]."

On the back of this extensive data integration and work up, the Company has put out tenders to various recognized drilling contractors for a drill program to commence near the end of the summer 2023. We anticipate confirmation of engagement and drilling schedule over the coming month.

About Crestview Exploration Inc:

Crestview Exploration is an experienced exploration company focused on the exploration and development of its portfolio of gold and silver properties located in the geopolitically stable, prolific mining districts of Nevada.

The Rock Creek gold project is Crestview's flagship asset, with 74 unpatented lode mining claims wholly owned and controlled by CRS. The Rock Creek property was acquired in 2017, and the company went public in 2019. Emboldened by the results coming out of Rock Creek, Crestview strategically expanded on the land position with the acquisition of the nearby Divide Mine prospect in April 2020, and the acquisition of the Falcon silver-gold prospect in September 2022. Between the three properties, all targeting similar mineralization and likely the same hydrothermal system, Crestview now holds 260 total claims in close proximity of one another. These three gold prospects, along with the nearby Castile prospect, are situated in a region with proven "world class" gold deposits (including Midas, Jerritt Canyon, Betze-Post, Meikle, and Gold Quarry), where the potential of finding large, high-grade gold-silver deposits is favorable.

The Cimarron project is located in the San Antonio Mountains of Nye County, Nevada, and is comprised of 31 unpatented lode mining claims, including control of 6 historically producing claims associated with the historic San Antonio mine. The property is located in the prolific Walker-Lane trend, approximately 44 kms south of the "world class" Round Mountain deposit.

We seek Safe Harbor.
