Crestview Exploration Options to Purchase the Falcon Project in Elko County, Nevada

The Falcon project comprises eighty-seven (87) unpatented lode claim and six (6) patented claims associated with the historic Falcon mine. According to "in house" historical reports, "[t]he Falcon Mine was discovered in 1876 and produced high-grade ore, averaging 100 opt (ounces per ton) silver, until 1891" (Brian Bond, 2010 - Preliminary Geological Report, Falcon Claim Block). The property is situated just 2 km's south of Crestview's flagship Rock Creek prospect and a similar distance southwest of Crestview's Divide prospect (see Map 1), placing all three properties in close proximity for a total of 189 claims.

Crestview's Tuscarora district play (Rock Creek, Divide, Castile, and now Falcon) is in a highly prospective, prolific gold region (see Map 2). The properties are surrounded on three sides by giant, "world-class" gold deposits and mines, including the Midas mine, approximately 35 km's to the west-southwest, which has produced more than 2.2 Moz Au and 26.9 Moz Ag with proven and probable reserves of an additional 2.73 Moz Au and 199.92 Moz Ag from an epithermal Ag (Au) deposit (Hecla Mining Company Website - 2022); the Goldstrike operation, approximately 45 km's south, which includes both the Betze-Post open pit and the Meikle underground mine and boasts a combined 11.88 Moz Au production with an additional 8.53 Moz Au of proven and probable reserves from a Carlin-type gold deposit (Technical Report on the Goldstrike Mine, Eureka and Elko Counties, State of Nevada, USA NI 43-101 Report - 2019); and the Jerritt Canyon mine, approximately 30 km's to the east (further from the Carlin Trend than the Tuscarora properties), which has produced an incredible 9.7 Moz Au from a Carlin-type gold deposit (Technical Report on the Jerritt Canyon Mine, Elko County, Nevada, USA Report for NI 43-101 - 2021), with continued exploration ongoing.

The Falcon property occurs in the southwest portion of an Eocene-aged caldera complex, hosted in a sequence of Devonian sedimentary rocks overlain by andesitic, dacitic, and rhyolitic volcanic rocks of the Tuscarora volcanic field (Roney Long, 2000 - The Falcon Mine Project). Our exploration concept at Falcon is very similar to and consistent with our targeting model at Rock Creek and Divide. The historic production and exploration at Falcon focused on silver mineralization in epithermal veins in the upper volcanic sequence. As with the Rock Creek and Divide properties, previous work at the Falcon prospect resulted in stratigraphic interpretations of the surface metasedimentary sequence which indicate the possibility of a Carlin-type host rock at relatively shallow depths (Roney Long, 2000 - The Falcon Mine Project). As such, we envision both shallow, high grade silver vein targets and deeper, disseminated Carlin-type Au (Ag) targets at Falcon.

Chris Wensley, Crestview's CEO, commented "The Falcon project is an important strategic addition to our other Tuscarora prospects, greatly expanding our footprint in the region. The Falcon prospect lies just over a mile south of the Rock Creek and Divide properties creating additional synergy with our exploration program and greatly enhancing our chances for success."

The terms of the agreement are as follows: 1.5% Net Smelter Royalty (NSR); payment of $500,000 (US$); and 2,000,000 CRS shares payable as follows:
