VANCOUVER, Nov. 20, 2018 - Velocity Minerals Ltd. (TSXV: VLC) (“Velocity” or the “Company”) announces that it has received positive results from trench sampling, extending known near surface mineralization at the Rozino gold project (“Rozino” or the “Project”), located in the Tintyava Property, Bulgaria (Table 1, Figure 1). Geological mapping completed in conjunction with trench sampling resulted in the discovery of altered subcrop (Plate 1, results pending).

“Velocity’s recently announced positive PEA was based on exploration and drilling to date. Management believes that there is potential to expand mineralization at Rozino beyond the extents of the pit outlines established in the PEA,” stated Keith Henderson, Velocity’s President & CEO. “These trench results together with rock samples collected during recent mapping support the potential for resource expansion and we look forward to drilling these targets in due course as part of the Rozino joint venture.”

Results in Detail

Sample results from trenches RTR-002, -003 and -004 are exclusively located outside of the pit limits established in the recently released NI 43-101 preliminary economic assessment, providing evidence that mineralization extends beyond the areas of previous drilling.

The presence of subcrop and float adjacent to new trenches at Rozino are coincident with untested gold in soil anomalies and significant trench intercepts. The style of mineralization and presence of silicified breccias in subcrop and float is in accord with the Rozino deposit and demonstrates that mineralization extends outside of the existing mineral resource.

Quality Assurance / Quality Control

The work program at Rozino was designed and is supervised by Stuart A. Mills, CGeol, the Company's Vice-President Exploration, who is responsible for all aspects of the work, including the quality control/quality assurance program. On-site personnel at the project rigorously collect and track samples which are then security sealed and shipped to ALS Global laboratory in Romania. Samples used for the results described herein are prepared and analyzed by fire assay using a 30-gram charge in compliance with industry standards. Field duplicate samples, blanks and independent controlled reference material (standards) are added to every batch of trench samples.

Qualified Person

The technical content of this release has been approved for disclosure by Stuart A. Mills, BSc, MSc, CGeol, a Qualified Person as defined by National Instrument 43-101 and the Company’s Vice President Exploration. Mr. Mills is not independent of the Company.

The team's experience includes all aspects of mineral exploration, resource definition, feasibility, finance, mine construction and mine operation as well as a track record in managing publicly listed companies.

About Rozino

Velocity began exploring and drilling at Rozino in August 2017 and published a maiden Inferred Mineral Resource estimate in March 2018. The Company completed additional drilling in 2018 and published results of an updated mineral resource estimate and Preliminary Economic Assessment in September 2018. The PEA provides a base case assessment of developing Rozino by open pit mining, on-site crushing, milling and simple flotation to produce a 30 g/t gold concentrate. The concentrate would then be trucked 85km on existing roads to the currently operating CIL plant where saleable gold doré would be produced. Mineralization remains open for expansion. Having delivered the PEA, the Company has exercised its option for a 70% interest in the project and will move forward in joint venture with its Bulgarian partner, with Gorubso-Kardzhali AD.

About Bulgaria

Bulgaria is a member of NATO (2004) and a member of the European Union (2007). The local currency (BGN) has been tied to the Euro since 1999 (1.956 BGN/EUR). The country is served by modern European infrastructure including an extensive network of paved roads. Bulgaria boasts an exceptionally low corporate tax rate of only 10%. The country’s education system is excellent with good availability of experienced mining professionals in a favourable cost environment. Foreign mining companies are successfully operating in Bulgaria. The country’s mining law was established in 1999 and updated in 2011. Mining royalties are low and compare favourably with more established mining countries.
