Regulus Provides Update on Resumption of AntaKori Drilling Program

August 27, 2020

August 27, 2020 (Vancouver, BC) - Regulus Resources Inc. (“Regulus” or the “Company”, REG TSX.V) is pleased to provide an update on its AntaKori copper-gold property located in Cajamarca, Peru. Company employees of the Cajamarca office and core storage facility returned to work in late July and have been working to prepare for the resumption of the Phase II drill program at AntaKori. In preparation to resume drilling on the AntaKori property, the Company has awarded a drilling contract to AK Drilling. It is anticipated drilling will resume by late September and will begin by testing one of multiple promising Anta Norte geophysical targets (Figures 1 & 2). Drilling will begin with one drill rig, with the addition of a second drill rig shortly thereafter. Further details of the drilling program will be reported as drilling commences.

Due to  the COVID-19 pandemic situation, the Company has implemented rigorous testing and health protocols to ensure all employees are safe in the Cajamarca office and core storage facility and will implement similar procedures at the Company’s field camp to protect employees, contractors, and the local communities. The Company has contracted a health officer, located in Cajamarca, to oversee the implementation of the Company’s health protocols, both in Cajamarca and at the field camp.

John Black, Chief Executive Officer of Regulus, commented as follows: We are very excited to get back to drilling at AntaKori following a lengthy delay due to COVID-19 restrictions. We see testing the Anta Norte targets as the next step in unveiling the true size potential at AntaKori. Prior to getting our new drill permits, we have only been able to test the southern fringes of these targets, but despite that, most of those holes encountered significant mineralization, including some of our best holes to date. We are taking all of the steps necessary to ensure that our work program at AntaKori will be sustainable and will protect the health of our workers, local communities and other stakeholders in the region.”
