USPR PROVIDES DRILLING UPDATE AND
RELEASES ASSAY RESULTS ON
INITIAL 11 DRILL HOLES FROM ITS 2015
DRILLING CAMPAIGN
New York, NY- July 9, 2015- U.S. Precious Metals, Inc.
(OTCQB:USPR) announces that it has completed 25 drill holes (approximately 4,300 meters) to date under its 2015 drilling campaign.
Based on existing hole depths, the Company expects to drill a total of 30 holes in this campaign to reach 5,000 meters. The drilling
campaign focused on definition drilling of locations on the Main Zone and the Southern extension areas as well as extending the
Main Zone towards the North Zone.
Drilling Update
- Holes 1 through 8 have extended the Main Zone towards the North Zone. While we have not drilled any
holes in the North Zone to date, the North Zone exhibits an exposed quartz sulfide vein system that runs in the direction of the
Main Zone. In addition, we have grab samples from the North Zone indicating results as high as 36g/t Au. The North Zone is located
on an adjacent low-lying mountain separated by a wash area, which may be ideally suited for placer mining. Based on our current
drill results and the exposed vein system, we believe that the Main Zone is geologically connected to the North Zone, which is
a distance of approximately 500 meters peak to peak.
- Holes 9-11 were located in the northern end of the Southern extension and further expand the results
in this area from the 2008 and 2010 drilling campaigns. The Southern extension also exhibits an exposed quartz sulfide vein system
that runs in the direction of the Main Zone. The Southern extension is located on an adjacent low-lying mountain, also separated
by a wash area having placer mining potential.
- Holes 12-30 are designed to further expand the results in the southern portion of the Main Zone. The
Company undertook significant road work in order to reach these drill sites.
Summary Results
The Company has received the independent assay results
from ACT Labs, Zacatecas, Mexico (unrelated to ACT Holdings, a US company, our drilling operator) for the initial 11 cores. All
11 holes successfully intersected mineralization with numerous quartz sulfide veins.
Holes 1 through 8 assay results demonstrate grades up
to 39g/t Au, 60g/t Ag and 2.84% Cu. Key intercepts from each hole are as follows:

Additional Information.
The core samples for holes 12 to 25 are in various stages
of being logged and assayed by ACT Labs. Once results have been received and processed by the Company, we will provide the results
to shareholders.
Mr. Dave Burney, the Company’s Chief Geologist,
stated “we are extremely pleased with the results to date as they far exceed the results from the prior two drilling campaigns.”
Mr. Burney further stated “it is important to note that these results have been arrived at relatively shallow depths between
150 to 200 meters.”
