Esperanza Project

Copper-gold porphyry mineralization at Esperanza is outcropping. All drill holes intersected significant copper-gold mineralization. Drilling highlights include:

• Mineralization is outcropping at surface with a pyrite halo extending over a 1,400m x 850m area
• Drill holes generally intersected mineralization at surface
• Mineralization is open in all directions
• Majority of drill holes terminated in mineralization and are open at depth
• Several drill holes demonstrate increasing grade with depth Recent drilling (2018) returned the best drill intersection to date (Table 2).

Table 2: Best Drill Hole Intersection To Date

Notes ¹ True width is not known. ² Copper equivalent = Copper grade % + (0.795 x gold grade g/t), where the conversion factor of 0.795 is calculated by comparing the value of copper $2.20/lb to the value of gold at $1,200/oz and assuming 100% recovery.

Quality Assurance / Quality Control

Drilling undertaken by Centenera in 2018 was supervised by on site personnel at the project who rigorously collect and track samples, which are then sealed and shipped to SGS Minerals (“SGS”) for analysis. SGS's quality system complies with the requirements for the International Standards ISO 9001:2000 and ISO 17025: 1999. Analytical accuracy and precision are independently controlled by company using blanks, control reference material and duplicate samples.
