(\"Turmalina\" or the \"Company\"; TBX TSX.V) wishes to provide an update on exploration activity at its San Francisco copper-gold project (\"San Francisco\" or the \"Project\"), located in San Juan in Argentina, and our response to the COVID-19 pandemic. \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n \nTurmalina completed the summer field program at San Francisco during the past week with exploration staff demobilized from site at the end of that program. This program mapped the entire Project area and identified several high priority exploration targets. \nBased on the information obtained from the past three months of field work, Turmalina geologists are now planning the upcoming drill program which will be a concurrent blend of testing for vertical and lateral extensions of the SFLD breccia, where Turmalina intersected high-grade gold-silver mineralization in multiple holes (such as 36.95m at 6.31 g/t gold, 122 g/t silver, and 0.88% copper, being 8.7 g/t gold equivalent; see Turmalina News Release dated December 9, 2019  for details) and drilling on new exploration targets within a large cluster of breccias in close proximity to SFLD. Exploration drilling will be based on the recently concluded field program which included 4494 soil samples, 1240 rock chip samples and mapping of 60 breccias (rock chip samples from one of the high priority exploration targets included 79 g/t gold, 385 g/t silver and 7.7% copper, as detailed in Turmalina News Release dated March 6, 2020).\nIn response to the recent Covid-19 pandemic, Turmalina wishes to describe the Company's protocols and plans.
