Remo Announces Proposed Reverse Take Over With Chakana Copper Corp.

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwired - Oct. 6, 2017) - Remo Resources Inc. (TSX VENTURE:RER) (the "Company" or "Remo"), a Tier 2 mining issuer listed on the TSX Venture Exchange (the "Exchange"), is pleased to announce that it has signed an Amalgamation Agreement dated October 5, 2017 (the "Agreement") with Chakana Copper Corp. ("Chakana"), a private British Columbia corporation, whereby Remo will acquire all of the outstanding shares of Chakana (the "Proposed Transaction") in exchange for common shares of Remo. Chakana indirectly, through its wholly-owned Peruvian subsidiary Chakana Resources S.A.C., owns the rights, pursuant to an option agreement, to acquire the Soledad copper gold project (the "Soledad Project") located in Peru. The Soledad Project consists of three mineral exploration concessions, comprising 1139 hectares.

About Chakana

Chakana was incorporated under the provisions of the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia) on December 1, 2016 and currently has 41,306,167 common shares issued and outstanding and share purchase warrants outstanding to purchase up to an additional 12,122,434 common shares. Chakana's primary business is copper and gold mineral exploration on the Soledad Project. Chakana is at arm's length to Remo.

Chakana owns 99.99% of the issued and outstanding shares of Chakana Resources S.A.C. a Peruvian company, that in turn owns the rights to acquire 100% of the Soledad Project pursuant to an assignment and option agreement (the "Option Agreement") dated April 17, 2017 and entered into between Chakana Resources S.A.C. and Minera Vertiente Del Sol S.A.C. a wholly owned subsidiary of Condor Resources Inc. Pursuant to the Option Agreement, Chakana Resources S.A.C can acquire 100% of the Soledad Project in consideration for:

• completing 12,500 m of drilling on the Soledad Project;
• making cash payments totaling US$5.375mm;
• issuing 500,000 common shares to Condor Resources Inc.; and
• granting Condor Resources Inc. a 2% Net Smelter Return on any mineral production from the Soledad Project, subject to Chakana's right to buy back 50% of this Net Smelter Return at any time for US$2,000,000.

Soledad Project

The Soledad Project is located in the Cordillera Negra, or western ranges of the Andes Mountains 260 kilometres north-northwest of the City of Lima, Per??. Contemporary exploration at the Soledad Project has focused upon a cluster of near-vertical magmatic-hydrothermal quartz-tourmaline breccia pipes hosted in andesite of the Calipuy group that contains attractive primary copper-gold mineralization, associated with silver, zinc, lead and molybdenum. It has been postulated that the breccias are genetically related to a concealed copper porphyry deposit at depth; vein deposits elsewhere in the Ticapampa-Aija Mining District may be the peripheral expression of an intrusive-driven hydrothermal system. Individual breccia bodies are up to 75 by 180 m and have been tested to vertical depths of up to 490 m. Mineralization may be present in both the hydrothermal breccias and the encompassing fractured and altered host andesite.

A tertiary target on the Soledad Project, Cima Blanca, is a separate area of quartz-alunite alteration associated with vuggy silica and some gold mineralization. This is a high sulphidation epithermal style of mineralization and its relationship to the quartz - tourmaline breccias is not certain.

The Soledad Project is immediately northwest and uphill from a cluster of silver-rich polymetallic vein deposits that are referred to as the Aija District. These deposits have seen intermittent production since colonial times.

Recent historical exploration at the Soledad Project has been undertaken by Condor Resources Inc., Mariana Resources Ltd. and Compa??ia Minera Casapalca S.A. Exploration work by these companies included surface rock sampling, prospecting, grid-based magnetometer and IP geophysical surveys, and two phases of core drilling totaling 4,855 meters in 16 holes.

Chakana has initiated a 16,660m drill program designed to determine the geometry of several pipes previously drilled, determine the true grade profile by drilling across the pipes, define an initial inferred resource on 2 of the pipes, and test a broad scope of targets across the property. Results from the first two holes completed by Chakana include:

Chakana submitted the core samples to the ALS facility in Callao, Lima Peru in multiple batches. Samples are processed under the control of ALS with the samples including certified reference materials, a coarse and finely-crushed blank and duplicates samples. All samples are analyzed using the ME-MS41 procedure in order to obtain a comprehensive multi-element overview of the geochemistry. Gold is analyzed by ME-MS41 (not considered reliable), AA24 (higher precision) and GRA22 when values exceed 10 g/t. Over limit Silver, copper, lead and zinc is analyzed using the OG-46 procedures.

Additional information concerning the Soledad Project will be contained in a technical report to be filed by Remo in connection with the Proposed Transaction which will be made available on Remo's SEDAR profile at www.sedar.com. Remo has not received as of this date, any geological technical report prepared in accordance with National Instrument 43-101.

Technical information in this news release has been approved by David Kelley, Qualified Professional - Geology designation from the Mining and Metallurgical Society of America, a Director of Chakana and a Qualified Person as defined by NI 43-101 - Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects.

Summary of the Proposed Transaction

The Proposed Transaction will be effected by way of a three-cornered amalgamation without court approval under the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia), pursuant to which Remo will acquire, through the amalgamation of a newly incorporated British Columbia subsidiary of Remo with Chakana, all of the issued and outstanding shares of Chakana (the "Chakana Shares"), in exchange for post-consolidated common shares of Remo (each, a "Remo Share") and Chakana will become a subsidiary of Remo.

Prior to the closing of the Proposed Transaction, Remo will consolidate its share capital on a 6.834615 old shares for one new share basis and change its name to Chakana Copper Corp., or such other name as agreed by the parties. Pursuant to the Proposed Transaction, the shareholders of Chakana will receive one post-consolidated Remo Share for each Chakana Share held at a deemed issue price of $0.50 per Remo Share and all of the currently issued and outstanding Remo share purchase warrants will be cancelled. Chakana holds approximately C$2.5mm in cash as at the date of this news release. Prior to closing of the proposed acquisition, Chakana intends to complete a non-brokered private placement through the issuance of no less than 12,000,000 shares at a price of $0.50 per share for gross proceeds of no less than $6,000,000 (the "Financing").
