Centurion Reports Agri-Gypsum Fertilizer Sales FOR June
NEWS RELEASE
CENTURION REPORTS AGRI-GYPSUM FERTILIZER SALES FOR JUNE
Vancouver, B.C., July 09, 2018 - Centurion Minerals Ltd. (CTN: TSX-V) ("Centurion", or the
"Company") is pleased to announce that its joint venture operating partner (“Demetra
Fertilizantes S.A.”) has sold and shipped 907 tonnes of agri-gypsum fertilizer from the Ana Sofia
Project in Argentina, generating approximately C$47,000 during the month of June. The
shipments consist of both a premium and blended material and relate to previously announced
purchase orders with Argentine and Paraguay fertilizer distributors.
“Our operating partner has been generating consistent income which is trending higher, a
pattern we believe will continue as logistical challenges are being solved and purchase order
confirmations continue to accelerate.” stated David Tafel, Centurion’s CEO.
ABOUT THE ANA SOFIA PROJECT
The Ana Sofia Project includes an agri-gypsum open pit mine and processing facility having a
current design capacity of 4,000 tonnes/month. Gypsum is extracted from near-surface, flat-
lying beds within the sedimentary formation that extends throughout the Ana Sofia Property,
located in Santiago del Estero Province, Argentina. The gypsum rock is fed into primary and
secondary crushers, then screened and sorted into two agri-gypsum fertilizer products. The
plant is designed to produce a pellet-sized granular product and a fine powder product
(comprised of a minimum 85% gypsum content) that are each packaged into one tonne tote
bags. Agricultural gypsum (calcium sulfate dihydrate) is a valuable plant nutrient and plays a
vital role in maintaining soil structure and nutrient balance in South American soils, resulting in
enhanced crop yields.
The Project comprises two mining concessions totalling 50 hectares (ha) in size within a larger
(approximately 600 ha) exploration permit area. The Project is well situated within a region
where other small producers are currently extracting agricultural gypsum and selling to
fertilizer distributors and farmers. An initial inferred gypsum resource for the Project was
estimated (news releases - October 31, 2016 and December 16, 2016) to comprise 1.47 million
tonnes averaging 94.1% gypsum, using an 85% cut-off grade that is the minimum required
gypsum content for commercial-quality agricultural gypsum products in Argentina.

This news release contains forward looking statements concerning future operations of Centurion Minerals Ltd. (the “Company”) . All forward-
looking statements concerning the Company’s future plans and operations, incl uding management’s assessment of the Company’s project
expectations or beliefs may be subject to certain assumptions, risks and uncertainties beyond the Company’s control. Investor s are cautioned
that any such statements are not guarantees of future performance and that actual performance and exploration and financial results may differ
materially from any estimates or projections. Such statements include, among others: possible variations in mineralization, grade or recovery
rates; actual results of current exploration activities; actual results of reclamation activities; conclusions of future economic evaluations; changes
in project parameters as plans continue to be refined; failure of equipment or processes to operate as anticipated; accidents and other risks of
the mining industry; delays and other risks related to construction activities and operations; timing and receipt of regulato ry approvals of
operations; the ability of the Company and other relevant parties to satisfy regulatory requirements; the availability of financing for proposed
transactions, programs and working capital requirements on reasonable terms; the ability of third-party service providers to deliver services on
reasonable terms and in a timely manner; market conditions and general business, economic, competitive, political and social conditions.
The Ana Sofia project has not been the subject of a feasibility study and as such there is no certainty that a potential mine will be realized or that
the processing facility will be able to produce a commercially marketable product. There is a significant risk that any production from the project
will not be profitable with these risks elevated by the absence of a compliant NI 43-101 feasibility study. A mine production decision that is not
based on a feasibility study demonstrating economic and technical viability does not provide adequate disclosure of the incre ased uncertainty
and specific risks of failure associated with such a production decision. The Company has undertaken market r esearch and studies to try to
mitigate these risks. The work carried out to date is of a preliminary nature to assist in the determination as to whether th e mineral product is
suitable for sale and if there are markets for the mineral product. General risks inherent in the Project include the reliance on available data and
assumptions and judgments used in the interpretation of such data, the speculative and uncertain nature of exploration and development costs,
capital requirements and the ability to obtai n financing, volatility of global and local economic climates, share price volatility, estimated price
volatility, changes in equity markets, exchange rate fluctuations and other risks involved in the mineral exploration and dev elopment industry.
There can be no assurance that a forward -looking statement or information referenced herein will prove to be accurate, as actual results and
future events could differ materially from those anticipated in such statements or information. Accordingly, readers shoul d not place undue
reliance on forward-looking statements or information. We undertake no obligation to reissue or update any forward -looking statements or
information except as required by law.
The Ana Sofia mineral resource estimate is reported in accordance with the Canadian Securities Administrators National Instrument 43-101 and
has been estimated using the CIM “Estimation of Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves Best Practice Guidelines” dated November 23rd, 2003
and CIM “Definition Standards for Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves” dated May 10 th, 2014. Due to the relatively wide spacing of the
historical quarries and the 2016 test pits, which varies between 40 m and 300 m, the Ana Sofia 2 resource described herein is categorized entirely
as an inferred mineral resource. Inferred Mineral Resources are not Mineral Reserves. Mineral resources which are not mineral reserves do not
have demonstrated economic viability. There has been insufficient exploration to define the inferred resources as an in dicated or measured
mineral resource, however, it is reasonably expected that the majority of the Inferred Mineral Resources could be upgraded to Indicated Mineral
Resources with continued exploration. There is no guarantee that any part of the mineral res ources will be converted into a mineral reserve in
the future. The estimate of mineral resources may be materially affected by geology, environment, permitting, legal, title, taxation, socio-political,
marketing or other relevant issues.
