Crews Mobilized for Mapping and IP Geophysics Program on the Los Reyes Cu-Au Project, Chihuahua, Mexico

Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - October 23, 2019) - Valterra Resource Corporation (TSXV: VQA) (OTCQB: VRSCF) ("Valterra") reported today that crews have mobilized for a surface exploration program on its Los Reyes Cu-Au project, southern Chihuahua, Mexico.

The surface program comprises an approximate 4.8 line kilometre IP geophysical survey, detailed surface mapping and sampling along an approximate 600 metre strike length of a Cu-Au skarn target forming the eastern contact between a Tertiary-age granodiorite intrusive and Cretaceous-age limestones and shales. The exploration target is locally over 100 meters wide and contains multiple zones of strongly copper-enriched mineralization. Near surface mineralization exposed in shallow artisanal workings and adjacent dump material is strongly oxidized.

The work should take approximately two to three weeks to complete.

The company is initially targeting a five to ten million tonne, shallow high grade Cu-Au resource localized along the strike length of the exposed skarn zone. Further work will examine the deeper potential of the mineralizing system including a potential Porphyry Cu-Au source for the shallow high-grade mineralization.

The Los Reyes Property is well located only 12 kilometres south of the city of Jimenez and adjacent to highway, power and rail. It is strategically located along a northwest-trending structure formed along the western margin of the Sierra Madre Oriental that hosts numerous high-grade current and past operating mines including Naica (26 million tonnes @ 213 g/t Ag, 5.9% Pb, 5.6% Zn and 0.4% Cu) and the Velardena district (+15Mt @ 175g/t Ag, 0.5g/t Au, 4.0% Pb, 5.0% Zn, and 2.5% Cu).
