(TSXV: COR) (OTCQB: CAMZF) (WKN: A116E1) (\"Camino\" or the \"Company\") is pleased to announce the results of the last four pending drill holes (Holes DCH-71, 72, 73, and 74) from the 2020 drill campaign on its Los Chapitos copper project located in Southern Peru's Arequipa Department. Significant intercepts in the remaining four drill holes of the 2020 campaign include DCH-071 with 55.5 m of 0.72% copper (Cu) (incl. 22.5 m @ 1.15% Cu) and near-surface DCH-074 with 64.5 m of 0.6% Cu (incl. 12 m @ 1.05% Cu). This is in addition to our first drill hole DCH-066 that intersected near-surface 92.1 m of 0.53% Cu (incl. 20.8 m @ 0.97% Cu). The Company intercepted copper mineralization in 8 out of 9 drill holes for the 2020 drill program, summarized in Table 1. The program consisted of 9 HQ diamond drill holes totalling 2,358.1 m and brings the overall meterage on the property to 21,519 m.\"Camino is back to drilling new significant copper intercepts after our initial discovery made at Los Chapitos in 2017 and 2018,\" said Ken McNaughton, Director of Camino Corp.

Major alteration zones identified at Chapitos in Diva West and to the north provide our next drilling targets. Copper prices are on the rise and it is an excellent time to be drilling copper discoveries.\"\"Camino has a large land position with over 220 square kilometres of claims in a target-rich IOCG-style copper system.
