MEXICAN GOLD ANNOUNCES CLOSING OF $4 MILLION NON-BROKERED PRIVATE PLACEMENT

Mexican Gold Corp. (the “Company” or “Mexican Gold") (TSXV: MEX) is pleased to announce that it has

closed its previously announced non-brokered private placement comprised of 50,000,000 units of the

Company (the “Units”) at an issue price of $0.08 per Unit for aggregate gross proceeds of $4,000,000

(the “Offering”).

Each Unit consists of one common share in the capital of the Company (a "Common Share") and one

transferable Common Share purchase warrant (a "Warrant"), with each Warrant entitling the holder

thereof to acquire an additional Common Share at an exercise price of $0.12 per Common Share for a

period of five years, expiring July 15, 2024. All securities to be issued in connection with the private

placement will be subject to a hold period expiring November 16, 2019.

The TSX Venture Exchange (the “Exchange”) has granted conditional approval for the listing of the

Warrants, subject to satisfaction of certain conditions precedent including expiry of applicable Canadian

hold periods.

The net proceeds of the private placement will be used for exploration and advancement of the

Company’s Las Minas Project, payment of outstanding invoices, and general working capital. No finder’s

fees were paid in connection with the Offering.

1198578 B.C. Ltd (“BC Co”), acquired directly, 11,875,000 Common Shares and 11,875,000 Warrants

pursuant to the Offering for total consideration of $950,000. Prior to the Offering, BC Co did not own or

control any Common Shares of the Company. Following completion of the Offering, BC Co now owns

and controls an aggregate 11,875,000 Common Shares of the Company representing approximately

11.5% of the outstanding Common Shares of the Company (or 23,750,000 representing approximately

15.5% of the outstanding Common Shares of the Company on a fully diluted basis). The Company has

been advised that BC Co acquired these securities for investment purposes and may, depending on

market and other conditions, or as future circumstances may dictate, from time to time, increase or

dispose of some or all of the existing or additional securities it holds or will hold, or may continue to hold

its current position. In connection with the acquisition of Units, BC Co will file an early warning report in

accordance with National Instrument 62-103 – The Early Warning System and Related Take-Over Bid and

Insider Issues. To obtain a copy of the early warning report directly from BC Co, please contact Michael

Kanevsky at 604-780-9997.

Directors and insiders of the Company subscribed for a total of 7,275,000 Units under the Offering. The

issuance of these securities to directors and insiders are “related party transactions” under the policies

of the Exchange and Multilateral Instrument 61-101 – Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special

Transactions (“MI 61-101”). The Company is relying on exemptions from the minority shareholder

approval and formal valuation requirements applicable to the related party transactions under Sections

5.7(b) and 5.5(b), respectively, of MI 61-101. There has been no prior formal valuation of the common

shares and share purchase warrants issued as there has not been any necessity to do so. The Offering

has been reviewed and approved by the Company’s board of directors, including a majority of the

Company’s independent directors.
