Calgary, Alberta – December 1 4, 2021 . Tocvan Ventures Corp. (CSE: “TOC”) (OTC: TCVNF) (WKN:TV3/A2PE64)

(“Tocvan” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce that it has closed the second tranche of its previously announced

non-brokered private placement of units (“ Units”) for gross proceeds of $ 266,000 (the “ Offering”). The Offering

consisted of the issuance of an aggregate of 2 66,000 Units at a price of $ 1.00 per Unit. Each Unit consists of one

common share (“Common Share ”) in the capital of the Company and one -half common share purchase warrant

(“Warrant”). Each Warrant entitles the holder thereof to acquire one Common Share at a price of $ 1.50, for a period

of 24 months from the closing of the Offering.

In connection with the Offering, the Company paid aggregate cash commissions to arm’s length finders who assisted

with the Offering of approximately $16,280 and issued 1,280 finder warrants (“Finder Warrants”). Each Finder Warrant

is exercisable at a price of $1.00 per Common Share for a period of 24 months from the closing of the Offering.

The company currently has 31,578,701 Common Shares outstanding.

DISCUSSION ON USE OF PROCEEDS

Proceeds from the Offering will be used to advance the Pilar Gold-Silver Project in Sonora, Mexico. A trenching program

was completed earlier in December to evaluate key target areas with channel sampling followed by a series of column

leach studies on representative sites across the Main Zone. Samples for the trench program have been delivered to a

certified laboratory for analysis. Results of channel samples are expected in mid -January and will used to select the

representative mineral sample for the programmed column tests. In addition, drilling is planned with between 5,000

to 8,000 meters estimated between now and July of 2022. Drilling will focus on continued step -out drilling along the

Main Zone and new 4 -Trench Trend, following up on Phase II step -outs highlighted by JES -21-50 which intersected

39.7m at 0.96 g/t Au including 1.5m at 14.6 g/t Au. Exploration drilling will continue to evaluate target areas along the

Triple Vein Zone. Surface exploration work will continue with trenching and sampling along the southeastern extension

of the Main Zone.

In coordination with exploration at Pilar, an exploration program of surface mapping and sampling will be conducted

at the El Picacho Gold-Silver Project in Sonora, Mexico. The program aims to advance key target areas towards trenching

and ultimately drill targeting.

“With a first phase of trenching complete and drilling set to begin, we remain focused on the advancement of Pilar and

are excited to announce the recent financing will provide the capital to see us through to our next phase of exploration.”,

commented VP Exploration, Brodie Sutherland.

ABOUT THE PILAR PROPERTY

The Pilar Gold-Silver property is interpreted as a structurally controlled low-sulphidation epithermal project hosted in

andesite rocks. Three zones of mineralization have been identified in the north-west part of the property from historic

surface work and drilling and are referred to as the Main Zone, North Hill and 4-Trench. Structural features and zones

of mineralization within the structures follow an overall NW-SE trend of mineralization. Over 22,700 m of drilling have

been completed to date. Significant results are highlighted below:

• 2021 Phase II RC Drilling Highlights include (all lengths are drilled thicknesses):

o 39.7m @ 0.96 g/t Au, including 1.5m @ 14.6 g/t Au

o 47.7m @ 0.75 g/t Au including 3m @ 5.6 g/t Au and 22 g/t Ag

o 29m @ 0.71g/t Au

o 35.1m @ 0.66 g/t Au

• 2020 Phase I RC Drilling Highlights include (all lengths are drilled thicknesses):

o 94.6m @ 1.6 g/t Au, including 9.2m @ 10.8 g/t Au and 38 g/t Ag;

o 41.2m @ 1.1 g/t Au, including 3.1m @ 6.0g/t Au and 12 g/t Ag ;

o 24.4m @ 2.5 g/t Au and 73 g/t Ag, including 1.5m @ 33.4 g/t Au and 1,090 g/t Ag

• 17,700m of Historic Core & RC drilling. Highlights include:

o 61.0m @ 0.8 g/t Au

o 16.5m @ 53.5g/t Au and 53 g/t Ag

o 13.0m @ 9.6 g/t Au

o 9.0m @ 10.2 g/t Au and 46 g/t Ag

Soil and Rock sampling results from undrilled areas indicate mineralization extends towards the southeast from

the Main Zone and 4-Trench Zone. Recent Surface exploration has defined three new target areas: Triple Vein

Zone, SE Vein Zone and 4 Trench Extension.
