Cosa Resources Exercises Option to Acquire a 100%
Interest in the Heron Copper Project
Vancouver, British Columbia, May 1 3th, 2022 – Cosa Resources Corp. (CSE: COSA) (“ Cosa Resources” or the
“Company”) is pleased to announce that it has , on an accelerated basis, exercised its option (the “Heron Option”)
to acquire a 100% interest in the Heron Copper Project (the “Heron Project”) from the current land holders (the
“Heron Vendors”).
Keith Bodnarchuk, President & CEO, commented: “Having now met the terms of the Heron Option Agreement, we
are excited to officially take 100% ownership of the project. Since completing the IPO in March, Cosa Resources has
remained very active in creating value for stakeholders. Securing 100% ownership of Heron is another value accretive
step. The Company is in a s olid financial position with $2.4 million in the treas ury to continue exploration in the
mining-friendly jurisdiction of Saskatchewan.”
Pursuant to the terms of the Heron Option agreement, Cosa Resources has issued an additional 1,000,000 common
shares of the Company (the “Option Shares”) to the Heron Vendors and satisfied its obligation to incur a minimum
of $100,000 in eligible exploration expenditures on the Heron Project . The Heron V endors will retain a 2% Net
Smelter Return Royalty (the “NSR”) on the Heron Project. Cosa Resources will have the right to repurchase one-half
of the NSR for $2 million in cash, and the remaining one-half of the NSR for $5 million in cash.
In addition to any resale restrictions imposed by applicable securities law, the Option Shares are subject to a 24 -
month hold period with 25% being released every three months commencing on August 1 3, 2023.
About the Heron Project
The Heron Project is a copper exploration project located in Northern Saskatchewan, approximately 180 kilometres
north of La Ronge . The Project is comprised of three mineral claims totaling 11, 122 hectares and is immediately
adjacent to the Janice Lake Copper Property, a highly prospective sedimentary- hosted copper project owned by
Forum Energy Metals Corp. and currently under option to Rio Tinto Exploration Canada . All claims at Heron are
within 30 kilometres of the newly constructed Janice Lake trail, and a high-voltage powerline runs within 4 kilometres
of the central mineral claim. Heron covers an underexplored area underlain by Wollaston Group sandstones which
host the stratabound sedimentary copper on the parallel Janice Lake property.
In August 2021, Cosa Resources completed a property-wide airborne magnetics survey. The survey successfully
outlined multiple target areas based on magnetic highs interpreted to be similar to the magnetic highs that host
copper mineralization at the Janice Lake property.
In April 2022, Cosa Resources completed magnetic and electromagnetic ground geophysical surveys at Heron . The
surveys were designed to follow up on the highest priority target area from the 2021 airborne geophysical survey
and the primary objective was to map and char acterize the electrical and magnetic properties of the subsurface
within the project area to focus future exploration for sedimentary-hosted copper deposits. The program consisted
of a combined total of 60 km of magnetic and electromagnetic survey coverage with a line spacing of 100 m ,
tightening to 50 m spacing overtop of the strongest airborne anomalies.

circumstances, but which may prove to be incorrect. Assumptions have been made regarding, among other things,
the price of metals; no escalation in the severity of the COVID -19 pandemic; costs of exploratio n and development;
the estimated costs of development of exploration projects; the Company’s ability to operate in a safe and effective
manner.
These statements reflect the Company’s respective current views with respect to future events and are necessaril y
based upon a number of other assumptions and estimates that, while considered reasonable by management, are

contractors; the Company's inability to obtain insurance to cover all risks, on a commercially reasonable basis o r at
all; currency fluctuations; risks regarding the failure to generate sufficient cash flow from operations; risks relating
