CONTINUED POSITIVE SURFACE MINERALIZATION FROM ONGOING EXPLORATION PROGRAM

Tocvan Ventures Corp. has mobilized additional heavy equipment to its flagship Gran Pilar gold-silver project in Sonora, Mexico. Equipment including a dozer, excavator and haul truck have been deployed to significantly accelerate trenching and pilot-scale development activities across high-priority targets. This equipment mobilization comes as the company continues its fully financed 20,000-metre drill program. Bulk testing material has been sent to the processing plant constructor and a local certified lab for pilot optimization. In addition, recent surface works have intersected mineralization along several target areas, further validating the scale and strength of the mineralized system.

Highlights:

• Additional mining equipment mobilized to accelerate the pilot mine;
• Test material submitted to processing plant constructor and independent lab for pilot optimization;
• Continued definition of at surface mineralization with drilling and surface sampling;
• South block surface mapping to the east and preparation for expansion of soil sampling.

"The mobilization of this additional heavy equipment marks a major step forward in our development timeline," stated Brodie Sutherland, chief executive officer. "With two drill rigs in operation new targets are advancing, we are accelerating surface trenching and pilot works to derisk the project and prepare for near-term pilot production. This infrastructure push, combined with our ongoing drill success, positions Tocvan to advance rapidly toward a maiden resource estimate while maintaining momentum at Gran Pilar."

The additional dozer, excavator and haul truck will support expanded trenching, road construction and material handling required for pilot mining and processing test work. The company remains fully financed for its current exploration and development programs, with more drill results expected in the coming weeks. Results for nine exploration holes and counting are pending.

Surface sampling at the Central Magnetic trend has returned up to 1.2 grams per tonne gold and 11 grams per tonne silver with elevated pathfinder elements arsenic and zinc indicative of upper-level epithermal mineralization.

Quality assurance/quality control

Rock and drill samples were shipped for sample preparation to ALS Ltd. in Hermosillo, Sonora, Mexico, and for analysis at the ALS laboratory in North Vancouver. The ALS Hermosillo and North Vancouver facilities are ISO 9001 and ISO/IEC 17025 certified. Gold was analyzed using 50-gram nominal weight fire assay with atomic absorption spectroscopy finish. Overlimits for gold (greater than 10 g/t) were analyzed using fire assay with a gravimetric finish. Silver and other elements were analyzed using a four-acid digestion with an ICP finish. Overlimit analyses for silver (greater than 100 g/t) were reassayed using an ore-grade four-acid digestion with ICP-AES finish. Control samples comprising certified reference samples and blank samples were systematically inserted into the sample stream and analyzed as part of the company's robust quality assurance/quality control protocol.

The ALS Hermosillo and North Vancouver facilities are ISO 9001 and ISO/IEC 17025 certified. Gold and multielement analysis of soils was completed by aqua regia digestion and ICP-MS finish using a 50-gram nominal weight. Overlimit gold values greater than one g/t were reassayed with a more robust aqua regia digestion and ICP-MS finish. Overlimit analyses for silver (greater than 100 g/t) were reassayed using an ore-grade four-acid digestion with ICP-AES finish. Control samples comprising blank samples and certified reference materials were systematically inserted into the sample stream and analyzed as part of the company's robust quality assurance/quality control protocol.
