NEWS RELEASE

ROSCAN DEFINES NUMEROUS STRONG GOLD ANOMALIES AT ITS 100%-OWNED

KANDIOLE GOLD PROJECT IN WEST MALI

DRILL TESTING PLANNED FOR NOVEMBER 2018

Toronto, September 21, 2018 – RosCan Minerals Corporation (“ RosCan” or the “ Company”) (TSX-V: ROS), is

pleased to announce that it has identified numerous high quality gold geochemical anomalies at its 100%-owned

Kandiole Project in west Mali. Immediate drilling is warranted and planned for November 2018.

During June and July of this year, RosCan conducted a detailed geochemical sampling program, consisting of soils

and termite samples, on the Mankouke and Moussala Nord permits. This program was completed just prior to the

commencement of 2018 rainy season and was identified from the reconnaissance prospecting program

completed during the dry season of this year. These two areas represent only 20 sq. km of the contiguous 271 sq.

km Kandiole Project land package.

A total of 4,916 samples were collected, including 2,806 soil samples and 2,110 termite mound samples. Samples

were collected on lines 100 to 200 metres apart with sample stations every 50 metres. There are many anomalous

values and these sample values are outlined o n the attached maps. Most of the anomalous samples align along

northerly trending corridors up to 350 metres wide with individual anomaly groups extending for a minimum of

600 metres along strike.

As can be seen from the attached maps a small portion of t he Kandiole Project area was covered with detailed

sampling. Map No . 1 shows the Kandiole Project land package with results of work to date and the areas of

detailed sampling. Maps No. 2 and 3 show the results of the sample analyses and gold anomalies of the Mankouke

and Moussala Nord areas respectively. These major anomalies will first be checked in the field, prioritized and

subjected to a first pass drill testing, expected to be conducted in November 2018.

COMMENTARY

Greg Isenor, President and CEO of RosCan stated “we were quite surprised and rewarded by the amount and

strength of these new Au -in-soil and termite mound anomalies that were identified in an area of existing gold

mines and along same structures, that management believes, host the nearby, recent discoveries by Oklo

Resources and Komet Resources. Our plans are to build on these exciting results, start drill testing the targets and

carry out the easy, next steps of collecting more soil and termite samples in this overlooked, highly prospecti ve

area.”

Veritas to their treatment installations at Abidjan, Ivory Coast. During the assay process, the laboratory applied

its own quality controls with blanks, duplicates and standard samples. The assay method was atomic absorption (AA) with

pre-concentration by fire assay (FA); the detection limit of the method is of 5 ppb.
