GoldQuest: Mining Advisor to the Executive Branch Makes Positive Comments About the Romero Project

VANCOUVER, June 15, 2021 - GoldQuest Mining Corp. (TSXV:GQC, "GoldQuest" or the "Company") During an interview in El Gobierno de la Tarde the mining advisor of the Executive Branch, Miguel Pe?a, said last Friday that GoldQuest's Romero project, in San Juan de la Maguana, has the ideal conditions to carry out a model mine in the Dominican Republic and the world.

He was also quoted as stating that the Romero site has been misinterpreted by a lot of San Juan's society and that the deposit has the ideal conditions for an underground mine.

Dave Massola, CEO of GoldQuest Limited stated "We are glad that Mr. Pena has stated that the Romero Project will be an ideal mine for the Dominican Republic as the Romero Mine will be a simple underground mine with crushing, grinding and flotation and will only use water collected from rain to produce a copper concentrate."

The Company is well funded with C$15.1 million in cash reported at the end of Q1 2021.
