Management Changes

WINSHEAR GOLD APPOINTS NEW PRESIDENT

Vancouver, July 2, 2020

Winshear Gold Corp. (TSX-V: WINS) is pleased to announce that Dr . Mark V . Sander has agreed

to join the management team of the Company as President. His role will focus on accelerating

exploration and development of the Company’s Peruvian properties as the country reopens

from Covid-19-related curtailments. Dr . Sander currently serves as a member of the Board of

Directors of Winshear Gold.

Dr . Sander holds a PhD in Ore Deposits and Exploration and a MS degree in Geostatistics from

Stanford University. He is a co-founder and Principal of Plinian Capital, a private equity firm

focused on mining and exploration investment opportunities. He formerly held the successive

roles of COO, then President & CEO of Mandalay Resources Corporation. Prior to Mandalay,

he held senior management roles with BHP and Magma Copper . He founded and led the

exploration program for Magma, including the teams that made the initial discoveries of the

Resolution copper deposit beneath the historic Superior Mine (Arizona USA) and of the Oyu

Tolgoi copper deposit (Mongolia) for Magma.

Richard Williams, CEO of Winshear Gold, commented, “I am pleased to welcome Mark Sander

as our new President. In the last year Winshear Gold has transitioned to becoming a Peruvian

exploration company whereby it requires more time than I am able to provide due to other

managerial responsibilities. The board unanimously agreed that Mark is an ideal candidate to

advance the Gaban Gold Project forward.”

Dr . Mark V . Sander, President of Winshear Gold, commented, “Winshear Gold’s 2019 sampling

campaigns revealed a 350 by 1000 metre, unbounded bedrock gold anomaly at our Gaban

project in Puno, Peru, coincident with a prominent aeromagnetic anomaly (see press release

of June 4, 2020). We are eager to accelerate our exploration efforts and planning to resume

field work in the next six weeks as Peru reopens. Our goal is to complete at least four more

sampling campaigns in 2020 to determine the full extent of the gold mineralization identified

in 2019 which remains open in all directions. To date vein sampling locations that have

returned anomalous gold assays also commonly show gold in hand samples that are crushed

and panned in the field. Gold panning allows us to expand our sample coverage quickly and

cost effectively in real-time, until we reach the edges of the anomalous zone. As well, we will

continue to advance permitting for an anticipated initial drill program in the 2021 season. I

am extremely excited for the opportunity to participate in the growth of Winshear and the

advancement of the Gaban gold project.”
