Regulatory & Compliance

SONORO CLARIFIES TECHNICAL DISCLOSURES RELATED TO ITS CERRO CALICHE PROJECT IN MEXICO

VANCOUVER, Canada, June 28, 2019 - Sonoro Metals Corp., (“Sonoro” or the “Company”) (TSXV: SMO) (OTCQB:

SMOFF) is issuing the following news release as a result of a review by the British Columbia Securities Commission

(the “BCSC”) , to clarify its technical disclosure and, additionally, to clarify certain information posted on the

Company’s website, related to its Cerro Caliche project located in the municipality of Cucurpe, Sonora, Mexico, held

by the Company’s Mexican subsidiary, Minera Mar De Plata, SA de C.V.

Correcting Disclosure of Historical Resource Estimate

In a January 2 5, 2018 news release, the Company made reference to historical drill programs on its Cerro Caliche

concession group by Cambior Gold and Corex Gold Corp, including reference to a historic non -published report

completed by Corex (Flores, 2008) that was stated to include a historical resource estimate.

The reader is cautioned that the above referenced “historical resource” is considered historical in nature and is based

on prior data and reports prepared by previous property holders. The work necessary to verify the classification of

this mineral resource estimate ha s not been completed and the resource estimate therefore, cannot be treated as

a current resource estimate compliant with National Instrument 43 -101 of the Canadian Securities Administrators

(“NI 43 -101”), and should not be relied upon as such. There can b e no assurance that any of these historical

resources, in whole or in part, will ever become economically viable. As most recently disclosed by the Company in

its June 3, 2019 press release, it is continuing its exploration and metallurgical testing activi ties with a view to

preparing and publishing an NI 43-101 compliant technical report.

Correcting References to NI 43-101

In addition, the BCSC has drawn to the Company’s attention that its June 3, 2019 news release includes certain

statements including that: preliminary metallurgical tests are “being conducted under Canadian National Instrument

protocols, but are not NI 43 -101 compliant”; “future NI 43 -101 compliant work”; and that study results would be

“updated to a NI 43-101 level”. Readers are cautioned that such statements could be misleading in that they suggest

that NI 43 -101 provides rules for the collection of explor ation information or the estimation of mineral resources.

The Company confirms that, while NI 43 -101 establishes rules regarding the disclosure of mineral resource and

reserve estimates and other scientific and technical information, it is not the basis fo r exploration and mineral

resource calculation standards and best practices.

Correcting Company Website and Investor Communications

In a “Comparative Deposits” report that was posted on the Cerro Caliche page of the Company’s website, and on

slide 7 of the Company’s June 2019 corporate presentation (the “Presentation”), the Company disclosed certain

mineral resources/reserves as “comparable deposits”. In addition, this information was presented without the

required disclosure of the Company’s qualified person who prepared, supervised the preparation of, or approved of

the technical information disclosed, as required by NI 43 -101, s. 3.1. In addition to amending the Presentation to

address certain concerns raised by the BCSC, t he Company confirms that all sc ientific or technical information

contained in the Presentation has been reviewed and approved by Stephen Kenwood, P.Geo., a Director of Sonoro

Metals Corp., who is a "qualified person" as defined in NI 43 -101, and advises that this information should not be

taken to imply that the Company will achieve similar results for its project, and confirms that this disclosure has been

removed from its website.

In addition, the Company has removed from the Media page of its website: a January 28, 2019 VRIC present ation

video; March 18, 2019 PDAC interview; and March 28, 2019 Afar Insights article. These media materials reference

the resource potential of the Cerro Caliche without providing the cautions and qualifications required by NI 43 -101,

s. 2.3. Readers who viewed these materials are cautioned that the resource potential disclosures are not supported

by exploration at Cerro C aliche sufficient to define a mineral resource. Presently, it remains uncertain if the

Company’s continuing exploration and testing will result in defining a mineral resource.

The Company has engaged an independent third-party consultant to prepare an NI 43-101 technical report.

On behalf of the Board of SONORO METALS CORP.
