Para Resources Provides a Corporate Update

Para Resources Provides a Corporate Update

Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - August 22, 2019) - Para Resources Inc. (TSXV: PBR) (WKN: A14YF1) (OTC

Pink: PRSRF) (the "Company" or "Para") is pleased to provide an update on operations as follows:

Gold Road

Gold Road has completed 245 feet of development raise and incline to complete excavation of the new secondary escape

route from the lowest levels of the mine as per the Mine Safety Health Administration (MSHA) request. Work continues on

lining and landings to finalize this project by the end of August.

As advised in June 2019, the new surface fan and air doors were installed and commissioned in July, as anticipated.

The work plan for the balance of Q3 2019 includes the completion of the development work accessing the 900-Level by

advancing 1,650 ft.

In July, the 3750 decline to access the 900-level advanced 520 feet, including passing the first sub-level. The vein at 3310

W is 4 ft in width and channel sampling has yielded an average grade of 0.50 ounces per ton (17 g/mt). The 3310E

heading vein is also 4 ft in width with an average grade of 0.25 ounces per ton (8.6 g/mt). These preliminary results are

better than modeled and are at a width that allows for a conventional shrink stope mining method.

Additional miners are currently being hired to restart mining on the 100-level and rehabilitate the 800-level.

These three production faces will be producing by September 2019.

The 2019 Q4 plan anticipates the re-start of the mill, at full capacity of 500 TPD, by early November with a stockpile in

place. Additional development work is also planned.

Management is in discussions with the major shareholders and others to provide financing to bridge the working capital

and capex requirements through the prolonged development timeline.

Manpower at the mine will be ramped up as the development work has opened access to the additional headings.

The exploration drilling program on the adjacent Tr-Ue vein began in June and was delayed by equipment failures. A new

drilling contractor is on-site and the program is expected to be completed by the end of August.

El Limon

For current year to date to July, El Limon has produced 1,187 ounces of gold in doré which is a 26% increase of 2018.

The mine is currently focusing on four main development projects including three new mine mouths.

Level 9

of El Limon is a development project to deepen the lowest levels of the mine past the El Limon fault. The project to

date has rehabilitated 140 meters of existing drift, re-established internal hoisting and all utilities, and advanced 32 meters

of development, passing and establishing ground support in the fault zone. 83 meters of waste development remains

before drifting and raises begin in the vein for 320 meters of development to establish the first two production stopes.

Renacer

is a new mine mouth for the El Limon Mine. A new mine mouth with concreted metal archways has been

established, and development in the main decline has advanced 22 meters with 60 meters remaining, before beginning

440 meters of drifting and raises in the vein for 440 meters to establish the first two production stopes.

Alacran

is a modernization project on a formalized mine with support in engineering, design and supervision from the

company. The 70 meters of the existing access incline were straightened by new excavation and 120 meters of drift

rehabilitated.

The incline is being extended and 15 meters remain. In parallel, construction is almost completed on a truck

loadout with the new hoist.

Once completed, work will begin on 340 meters of development in the vein to establish the first

two production stopes.

Diamantina

is a modernization project on a formalized mine with support in engineering, design and supervision from the

company. The mine mouth has been re-established with a concreted metal archway and 95 meters of incline rehabilitation

including re-excavation of 15 meters. 50 meters of incline extension remain before drifting and raises begin in the vein for

190 meters of development to establish the first production stope.

Geoff Hampson, Para's CEO, states, "Mine development plans in both Colombia and Arizona are progressing well and are

anticipated to allow the company to achieve full production at both mines by Q1 2020. The delay in the commencement of mining

at Gold Road, as necessitated by the reversal of the original MSHA approval, has not changed the economic assessment of the

Gold Road mine as published in the NI 43-101 Technical Report and Preliminary Economic Assessment of the Gold Road Mine

by RPM Global on May 3, 2016. Recent increases in the price of gold improve projected cash flows but our forecast models

continue to show significant cash flow at our base case of $1,250 per ounce."

The Company's "NI 43-101 Technical Report, Preliminary Economic Assessment of the Gold Road Mine, Arizona, USA," dated

May 3, 2018, is preliminary in nature and includes inferred mineral resources that are considered too speculative geologically to

have the economic considerations applied to them that would enable them to be categorized as mineral reserves, and there is

no certainty that the results included in the PEA will be realized. If the Company were to bring the Gold Road mine into

production without first establishing mineral reserves supported by a feasibility study, the Company cautions that this could result

in a higher risk of economic or technical failure of the operation than if a feasibility study had been prepared demonstrating

economic and technical viability. There are no assurances that the Gold Road mine will be found to be economic.

ABOUT PARA RESOURCES:

Para Resources Inc. ("Para") is a junior gold mining and exploration company. The Company owns two projects that both include

existing or near-term mining and milling operations as well as highly prospective exploration properties. The company has

acquired fully permitted mines and facilities with adjacent properties that have either been past producers or where there are an

abundance of small artisanal miners, dramatically reducing the exploration risk. It is anticipated that the operating mines will be

profitable in the short term, providing a return on capital, as a stand-alone entities and funding regional exploration to build out

resources.

Para is unique in that the Insiders have invested more than US $30 million of their own capital and own approximately 70% of the

company's equity.

Para's management team is seasoned and proven, having discovered, built, managed and sold several different mines over the

last 40 years. The Company has two major projects: The Gold Road Mine in Arizona, USA and the El Limon Mine in Zaragoza,

Colombia.
