Vancouver, B.C., Canada / TheNewswire / September 6, 2017 - Deep-South Resources Inc. ("DeepSouth" or "the Company") (TSX-V: DSM) announces a corporate update.

Haib Copper project, Namibia:

Since the closing of the acquisition of a 100% interest in the Haib Copper project in Namibia, the Company has completed a full revision of all the data available on the project. Further to this revision, the Company has hired P&E Walker Consultancy and Obsidian Consulting Services of South Africa to undertake a resource estimation report in compliance with the National Instrument 43-101.

The Haib project is a large copper-molybdenum porphyry deposit located in the Karas region of southern Namibia, 8 km from the Orange River and the South African border.

-------------------------------------- |Cut-off|GFM Model (Kriging method)| |(%Cu)| | | | | | |----------------------------| | |Million Tonnes|Grade % Cu| |------------------------------------| |0.1 |1353 |0.23| |------------------------------------| |0.2 |739|0.29| |------------------------------------| |0.3 |244|0.37| --------------------------------------

The deposit, discovered in the 1950's, has seen over 50,000 metres of drilling in the 1970's by companies such as Rio Tinto and Falconbridge Ltd. A report from Behre Dolbear, completed in 1996, estimated the Historical Estimates at Haib as follows:

Since 2010, Teck Namibia (a subsidiary of Teck Resources Ltd.) has completed over 14,000 metres of core drilling with results such as: 121 m @ 0.5% Cu, 494 m @ 0.36% Cu and 30 m @ 0.81% Cu. This drilling data was not included in the Historical Estimate. In order to comply with the National Instrument 43-101 rule and regulation, the new 43-101 resource estimate will incorporate the historical data and the results from the drilling completed by Teck and results from the re-assaying of many drill cores from Rio Tinto drilling programs. Further details are available on our corporate presentation at : https://www.deepsouthresources.com

The estimates of tonnages and grades quoted in this report were prepared prior to publication of National Instrument 43-101 in 2001 and are considered as Historical Estimates. The historical grades and resources terminology from the original historical reports are to be used only as a reference and should not be considered as a current mineral resource under NI 43-101 but are to be considered as Historical Estimates as per the NI 43-101 Rules and Policies.

No qualified person has done sufficient work to classify the historical estimate as current mineral resources and Deep-South is not treating the historical estimate as current mineral resources or mineral reserves.

P & E Walker Consultancy has prepared a technical review of all the historical data and reports. This NI 43-101 qualification report can be consulted on Sedar at www.sedar.com or on our web site at: https://www.deepsouthresources.com/wp-content/uploads/Haib_NI43-101_May-2016_FINAL.pdf.

Peter Walker B.Sc. (Hons.) MBA Pr.Sci.Nat. is the author of the 43-101 qualifying report and is responsible for the technical part of this press release, and is the designated Qualified Person under the terms of National Instrument 43-101.
