Pershing Resources Provides Update on New Enterprise Project Activities

The Company Sends Bulk Samples for Process Testing and Prepares for Drilling In 2019

RENO, Jan. 09, 2019 - Pershing Resources Company Inc., (OTC PINK: PSGR), is pleased to announce the completion of several project milestones related to its wholly owned New Enterprise Project site near Kingman, Arizona. The Company has recently updated and renewed the Notice of Intent with the Bureau of Land Management, (BLM), allowing time to execute a Bulk Sampling Program, applied for in September 2018, that was given the green light to proceed in early November. The permit and bond will be in effect for a further period of two years.

The primary target of the bulk sampling program is a pre-existing stockpile from mine workings (mine spoils from historical underground workings) located on the Central Vein System that have been estimated to contain eight to ten thousand tons of unprocessed broken rock, some of which was likely uncategorized and/or loosely hand-sorted ore from historical mine workings. Three separately bagged samples, totaling approximately 2.5 short tons, were collected manually from the Enterprise and Jewel mine spoil dumps that comprise the preliminary stage of the bulk sampling program. Initial assaying of the material has been completed by AuRic Metallurgical Laboratories of Salt Lake City Utah. Head grade assays of representative splits from each of the three bulk samples are reported by AuRic as follows:

AuRic Labs will be performing laboratory and bench scale milling and metallurgical leach testing on the three preliminary samples to determine the optimal process for metals extraction that can then be applied to a much larger sample. Detailed results of the fire assay and 40 element chemical ICP analysis on each of the three bulk samples are available on the Company’s website at https://www.pershingpm.com/projects/the-new-enterprise-project/technical-report

Additionally, the Company has filed an Amended Notice of Intent with the BLM that begins laying out drill pad sites for a preliminary drilling program that is planned for 2019. The Company anticipates drilling up to six angled core holes of up to 300 feet in length along the strike of the Central Vein System. The Central Vein System is generally north-south striking and extends through, and between, the Jewel and Enterprise mine workings for approximately 1,320 feet; presumably connecting the historical workings from which the mini bulk samples were taken. Pending the completion of the permitting process, the Company will move forward with its drill program once sufficient funding is in place.

Pershing Resources' CEO, Steve Plumb stated, "We are very pleased to have gotten this part of our project plan for the New Enterprise underway. The initial assay and recovery numbers coming from the preliminary mini bulk sample material are exciting, and may infer that a commercially viable project is present. This is an important step to get us to the next stage of our exploration and development plan for the New Enterprise. We are looking forward to beginning our initial drilling program and making substantial progress in the coming months."

All bulk sample collection, analysis, and interpretation were completed by Professional Geoscientists independent of Pershing Resources. Analyses were completed by AuRic Metallurgical Laboratories of Salt Lake City, Utah, http://auriclabs.com/index.html, with standard quality assurance and quality control methods and procedures. All quality assurance, quality control, and sample security work met expectations for their intended purposes.
