VANCOUVER, British Columbia, March 29, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Mirasol Resources Ltd. (TSX-V: MRZ) (OTCPK: MRZLF) (the "Company" or "Mirasol") today announced that following completion by Silver Sands Resources Corp. ("Silver Sands") of a non-brokered unit offering of securities (the "Private Placement"), Mirasol's common share interest in Silver Sands has decreased below 10%. Mirasol did not participate in the Private Placement.

Mirasol holds 6,550,481 common shares of Silver Sands, issued pursuant to the terms of a mineral option agreement (the "Option Agreement") dated May 20, 2020, as partial consideration for the grant by Mirasol of an option (the "Option") to Silver Sands to acquire an undivided 100% interest in Mirasol's Virginia Property, located in Santa Cruz province, Argentina.

The Private Placement increased the common share capital of Silver Sands to 76,549,249. Immediately before the Private Placement, Mirasol's holdings represented approximately 10.4% of the issued common share capital of Silver Sands. Following completion of the Private Placement, Mirasol's holdings represent approximately 8.6% of the issued common share capital of Silver Sands (determined on a non-diluted basis).

Mirasol received the Silver Sands shares pursuant to the Option Agreement and holds the shares for investment purposes. The Option Agreement provides for the issuance to Mirasol of 19.9% of the common share capital of Silver Sands in stages over a period of three years from the date of the Option Agreement, if the Option is fully exercised by Silver Sands (see news release May 21, 2020).

An early warning report will be filed by Mirasol in accordance with applicable securities laws (the "Early Warning Report").

Mirasol holds the Silver Sands common shares for investment purposes. Mirasol may, from time to time, acquire additional common shares or other securities of Silver Sands or dispose of some or all of the common shares or other securities of Silver Sands that it owns at such time. Subject to its rights under the Option Agreement, Mirasol currently has no other plans or intentions that relate to or would result in any of the actions listed in paragraphs (a) through (k) of Item 5 of the Early Warning Report, but depending on market conditions, general economic conditions and industry conditions, the trading prices of Silver Sands' securities, Silver Sands' business and financial condition and prospects and/or other relevant factors, Mirasol may develop such plans or intentions in the future.
