About Southern Empire Resources Corp
.
Southern Empire is focused on the acquisition, exploration and development of metals and minerals
deposits in
North America
.
In northeastern Durango State, México, Southern Empire has an option to acquire a 100-per-cent
beneficial interest in the 1,750-hectare Pedro Gold Project where 2014 drilling by a subsidiary of
Newmont Mining Corporation encountered epithermal gold mineralization within basal conglomerates
of the Ahuichila Formation. At Pedro, permits are established for up to 25 drill holes with nine drill
holes currently planned; please see Southern Empire's news release of
July 27, 2021
.
In the Cargo Muchacho mountains of
Imperial County, California
, Southern Empire owns 100 per
cent of the historical gold-producing American Girl mine property and holds options to acquire a 100-
per-cent interest in the adjacent 2,160-hectare (5,338-acre) Oro Cruz property located
approximately 22.5 kilometres (14 miles) southeast of the operating Mesquite gold mine of Equinox
Gold Corp.
At Oro Cruz, extensive historical drilling and large-scale open-pit and underground mining of the
American Girl, Padre y Madre, Queen and Cross oxide gold deposits by the American Girl Mining
Joint Venture (AGMJV; ultimately owned 53 per cent by MK Gold Company and 47 per cent by
Hecla Mining Company) occurred between 1987 and 1996. During that time, gold was recovered by
either heap leaching of lower-grade, or milling of higher-grade ores until AGMJV operations ceased
in late 1996 because of declining gold prices leaving the Oro Cruz property with many gold
exploration targets in addition to the historical inferred resource estimate, reported In 2011 by
Lincoln Mining Corp., totalling 341,800 ounces gold based on 4,386,000 tonnes averaging 2.2 grams
gold per tonne at a cut-off grade of 0.68 g/t Au (4,835,000 tons at 0.07 ounce gold per ton; Please
refer to the Cautionary Notice Regarding the Oro Cruz Property Historical Resource Estimate
below).

Cautionary Notice on Forward-Looking Information
Information provided in this news release may contain forward-looking information or forward-looking
statements that are based on assumptions as of the date of this news release. Such information or
statements reflect management's current estimates, beliefs, intentions and expectations and are not
guarantees of future performance. Southern Empire cautions that all forward-looking statements are
inherently uncertain and that actual performance may be affected by a number of material factors,
many of which are beyond its respective control. Such factors include, among other things: risks and
uncertainties relating to Southern Empire limited operating history, the need to comply with
environmental and governmental regulations, results of exploration programs on its projects and
those risks and uncertainties identified in its annual and interim financial statements and management
discussion and analysis. Accordingly, actual and future events, conditions and results may differ
materially from the estimates, beliefs, intentions and expectations expressed or implied in the
forward-looking information. Except as required under applicable securities legislation, Southern
Empire undertakes no obligation to publicly update or revise forward-looking information
Cautionary Notice Regarding Historical Resource Estimate
The historical resource estimate outlined above is disclosed in a technical report dated
April 29,
2011
, prepared for Lincoln Mining Corp. by Tetra Tech, Inc. and filed on Canadian Securities
Administrators' System for Electronic Document Analysis and Retrieval (SEDAR). This historical
resource is termed an inferred mineral resource, which is a category set out in NI 43-101. It was
based on historical reverse circulation and core drill hole sample, underground channel sample, and
blasthole sample assay results and calculated using ordinary kriging to estimate gold grades in 10-
foot-by-10-foot-by-five-foot blocks. Accordingly, Southern Empire considers this historical resource
estimate reliable and relevant as it represents key targets for future exploration work. However, a
QP has not done sufficient work to verify or classify this historical estimate as a current mineral
resource and Southern Empire is not treating this historical estimate as current mineral resources.
Work Programs During the COVID-19 Pandemic
Timing of Southern Empire's exploration programs will be contingent on governmental regulations
regarding the COVID-19 pandemic and the availability of exploration-related personnel, drill
contractors, equipment, lodging, et cetera. Southern Empire will adhere to COVID-19 directives
regarding safe working practices putting worker, community and national safety first and will
proceed with exploration and development work programs only if potential COVID-19 risks can be
effectively managed.
Neither the TSX Venture Exchange nor its Regulation Services Provider (as that term is
defined in the policies of the Exchange) accepts responsibility for the adequacy or accuracy
of this release.
