URBYASA was asked to vacate the property and terminate the agreement. On June 5, 2019 Minerales the Company filed in the proper courts to have URBYASA removed from the project. To date the case is still pending.

DOS SANTOS, MEXICO

The Dos Santos project in Zacatecas State, Mexico is the company's primary exploration focus. The property mineral tenures cover a gold exploration project located within the historic Concepcion del Oro mining district in northern Zacatecas State, Mexico. It is located in a sparsely populated, mining friendly area of Mexico with a 500-year long mining history and in one of the most prospective areas in Mexico for large mineral deposits. The property is located 35 kilometres southeast of Goldcorp's world-class Peñasquito gold-silver-lead-zinc mine and lies adjacent to the northern property boundary of the Camino Rojo gold deposit. The Camino Rojo project was acquired by Goldcorp in February, 2010 through an acquisition of Canplats Resources. Subsequently (2017), Orla Mining purchased Comino Rojo through an agreement with Goldcorp and has begun to develop the project.

Dos Santos was assembled over a number of years, starting in 2007 with an option agreement on 658 hectares covering artisanal mining activity dating back to the mid-19th century. A 100% interest in these claims was earned in 2011. Additional claims were acquired by staking and through the Mexican mineral title lottery system from 2007 to 2010.

In 2012, the Company entered into a purchase agreement to acquire the surface rights to certain privately- owned lands known as Rancho Duraznillo that cover a portion of the Dos Santos project. The terms of the agreement required payments of $350,000 Pesos on signing and further monthly payments over 18 months totalled approximately $1,050,000 Pesos. The purchase of Rancho Duraznillo was completed in full in October 2018.

La Palma target

Prior to 2009, the Company explored known gold showings at San Jose and Los Gemelos in the northern area of the property. In 2009 and 2010 the Company began exploring for a Camino Rojo-stylesilver-gold deposit in areas underlain by the same host rocks. Exposure is limited in these areas, so a soil pH survey was used to outline initial targets, which were then explored by Induced Polarization (IP) and magnetometer surveys.

The best results were obtained on the North Grid at La Palma, where a 160-hectare area, coincident chargeability and magnetic anomalies were defined on seven lines. The chargeability anomaly is up to 1,400 metres wide, delineated over a 1,200-metre length and appears to be open to the west.

The North Grid anomaly was tested in October to December 2010 with twelve diamond drill holes, totalling 4,973 metres. The drill holes were spaced from 280 to 860 metres apart and tested targets within and outside the anomalies.

The La Palma area is underlain by a calcareous and carbonaceous clastic sedimentary rock unit, which grades into an impure limestone at depth. The clastic unit is an argillite having interbeds of siltstone-sized fragments at higher levels. Centimetre-scale pyritic beds to millimeter-scale very fine-grained pyrite laminations occur in this unit in all holes and increase in frequency with depth. These pyritic layers do not carry significant metal values. Deposition of the pyrite bands in the clastic unit is interpreted as syn-sedimentary, caused by an influx of iron into a starved basin environment. However, drilling also encountered a three to four-metre-thick marker horizon in all holes, with a unique geochemical signature, suggesting a short pulse of metals associated with hydrothermal fluids were discharged on the sea floor during sedimentation. Much younger, polymictic breccias (mixed angular rock types) were also encountered in all drill holes. These breccias occur in thicknesses from centimetres to several metres, parallel to and crosscutting bedding. More importantly, breccias contain altered felsic intrusive and feldspar porphyry fragments, common to diatreme related deposits. These breccias are evidence of a high-energy explosive intrusion-related event.

All anomalous concentrations of silver-lead-zinc mineralization in drill core are associated with these breccias. Geochemical evidence suggests the brecciation and mineralization are intrusion-related, although not all

Page 5

breccia intercepts contain igneous fragments. These features may be associated with diatreme intrusions similar to the geology of Goldcorp's Peñasquito mine. Our exploration model is based on this relationship. Diatreme intrusions at Peñasquito have been shown to have a lower density than their host rocks and are associated with intrusion-related magnetic anomalies. A combined airborne gravity and magnetic survey was chosen in 2012 to explore the favourable geology on the property. A fixed wing airborne survey was initially selected but system availability and various delays resulted in choosing a helicopter-borne gravity survey system, which was working near the Dos Santos property in February 2014.

In April 2014, the Company received the survey results. A total of 1,233 line-kilometres (770 line-miles) Helicopter Airborne Gravity Gradiometer and High Sensitivity Magnetic Survey were flown over approximately 20,000 hectares (49,400 acres) of the Dos Santos Property and the adjacent, optioned, San Onesimo property. An assessment of the survey data by an independent geophysicist revealed encouraging anomalies in three areas of the property, which fit the Company's exploration model. Secondary geophysical anomalies, which may indicate other styles of mineralization, were also outlined by the survey.

El Álamo target

The El Álamo claim was acquired by the Company through a Mexico government claim lottery and is 100% owned by the Company. In September 2010 the Company began a systematic trenching and mapping program. The main trenches ranged in length from 34 to 80 metres. The program included 512 continuous chip and channel rock samples taken from 10 trenches totalling 1,020 in length. Samples were taken in a north-south direction, across steeply dipping, east-west trending, altered limestone beds. Six of the trenches, which ended in gold-bearing mineralization, were extended by 212 metres. The best results include 12 meters of 0.96 g/t gold, adding to more significant intervals in the main trenches. It is now interpreted that the main area of gold mineralization at El Álamo measures over 500 metres long and up to 110 metres wide. The mineralization remains open at depth and in at least two directions.

From December 2011 to January 2012, the Company carried out a shallow percussion drill-sampling program on the claim. Drilling was done at 30-metre spacing using a conventional track-mounted percussion drill to minimize construction of road access in steep terrain. The results demonstrate that mineralization exposed in the trenches extends to depth.

In July 2017 the Company employed the services of an independent geologist, Tony Adkins. Mr. Adkins provided a Property Evaluation Report in August 2017 and deemed the El Alamo claim to be a "high quality target". Mr. Adkins report provided further sampling with assay results ranging from 0.822 ppm to 18.6067 ppm and confirmed the widespread occurrence of anomalous gold values.

Senior geologists Guadalupe Garcia (Project Manager) and Bill Fleshman (Vice President of Exploration) joined the exploration team in October 2018. Their initial work included mapping surface outcrops along El Álamo ridge for the purpose of proposing a drill program to test the priority targets. Under their supervision a diamond drill core program began in May of 2019. To date the Company has completed five holes totalling 1,667 of core with a 100-170m thick zone of mineralization believed to be a low lying structure discovered in the first two core holes assayed. Select samples from Hole Three have been sent to ALS for analysis and results are pending. Oxidized limestone breccias intersected in holes three, four, and five currently are being added to the geologic model and pending assay results could further support the area as proximal to an epithermal system. Low levels of silver mineralization, trace elements, and alteration are indications of an upper level epithermal system. Drilling was ceased to begin detailed mapping and sampling planned for possible new extension of the discovered mineralization. Additional drill holes are in the planning stage.

San Jose target

Previous work in the San Jose area included rock sampling of hand-trenches, numerous artisanal pits and several abandoned underground workings. Gold assays range from trace to 208 gm/tonne over 0.5 metres. Gold values are associated with anomalous arsenic, mercury, antimony and thallium concentrations, which are known pathfinder elements associated with high-level epithermal gold mineralization. All samples lie within a one-kilometre diameter circular carbonate and silica-alteration anomaly, which is evident on an ASTER satellite image of the area.
