For Immediate Release
DEEPROCK MINERALS INC. TO ACQUIRE PROSPECTIVE PRECIOUS
AND POLYMETALLIC PLAY IN BIHOR COUNTY, ROMANIA
VANCOUVER, CANADA, November 20th, 2020 – DeepRock Minerals Limited (the “Company”) (CSE
Symbol: “DEEP”), announces it has entered into an agreement to acquire a 100% interest in a
7.641 km² land package situated in the Apuseni mountains of western Romania’s Bihor County.
Lying within an area where multiple skarn and hydrothermal stockwork deposits have evidence
of exploitation dating back many centuries, the Perimeter and Prospecting Permit #21.711
referred to as Valea Cohului - Valea Zăpozilor (the “Property”) is known to host skarn and
hydrothermal stockwork deposits that are mineralized in Gold, Silver, Copper, Lead and Zinc
that were the subject of extensive underground exploration, development and exploitation works
carried out during the 1980’s and early 1990’s before activities ceased due to the political and
economic climate at that time. Consequently, the resource estimate of remaining ore tonnages
defined in accordance with (historical) Russian resources classification standards DOES NOT
CURRENTLY comply with National Instrument NI 43-101 that governs the Company’s
disclosure requirements and will therefore not be referenced at this time.
An application for graduating the perimeter’s status to an exclusive Exploration License has been
recently filed and accepted for review by Romania’s National Agency for Mineral Rights in early
February 2021, and where the review and approval is anticipated to require up to 90 days
thereafter.
During these past two fieldwork seasons the Vendor has successfully deployed technical
personnel on numerous site visits and programs to carry out further assessment work that to date
has comprised LIDAR, soil and rock samples including trenching with sample assays tested by
both University of Bucharest’s faculty of geology and ALS, (2D) Induced Polarization as well as
metallurgical testing. Final reporting on this information and data, along with awaiting results on
an additional 450 samples being tested by ALS Chemex that are due in the coming weeks, will
be included with finalized compilation mapping and is anticipated to be completed and received
by early in 2021.
Located approximately 75 to 80 kms due East from the city of Oradea there is excellent existing
all season paved highway access directly to and through the property, along with multiple access
points to grid scale power within close proximity. Water supply is abundant and nearby towns
offer up a considerable and skilled labor force.
The purchase agreement’s key commercial terms and considerations for DeepRock’s acquisition
of a 100% right, title and ownership interest in the property and pending exploration license
include:
i. $150,000 CAD cash payment to the Vendor within 10 days of the agreement’s execution
date (today’s date),
ii. $150,000 CAD cash payment to the Vendor within 10 days of the Company closing a
subsequent financing for no less than $250,000 CAD,
iii. Issuance of 15 million DEEP common shares to the Vendor,

iv. Bonus shares - issuance of and an additional 10 million DEEP shares to the Vendor upon
the realization of an independent resource estimate of no less than one million inferred
tonnes in accordance with NI 43-101,
v. 2% NSR, Net Smelter Royalty payable to the Vendor and whereby DeepRock can
purchase or buy back each 1% for one million CAD for each percentage point of NSR.
There are no third-party finders fees applicable to the above.
In these coming months, the Company plans to commission and deploy an independent
Qualified Person as defined by NI 43-101 to visit the property and compile, review and
report on the property’s data sets prior to finalizing, designing and planning field work
and exploration programs for the 2021 season of field work, up to and including re-
establishing safe access to underground workings.
Richard Shatto, CEO of DeepRock comments, “ For some time we have held a strong interest to
further evaluate selected mineral and mining projects in Romania. We are now delighted to have
acquired an advanced precious metal and polymetallic property within a skarn belt that has been
known for centuries. We have already begun planning to carry out a comprehensive and thorough
compilation, review and update of all relevant data to plan our next phases of both surface and
underground near term activities including drilling in a manner that aims to validate and possibly
grow a modern resource estimate for further investment and development.”
