Yorbeau Resources Inc. Files Technical Report on Preliminary Economic Assessment of Scott Lake Deposit

Under the base case PEA, the Scott Lake mineralized material is fed to a new 2,500 tonne-per-day concentrator plant located at the mine site. Results indicate positive economics with a pre-production capital expenditure of $215 million, a net pre-tax cash flow of $519 million, an Internal Rate of Return ("IRR") of 16.6%, a pre-tax Net Present Value ("NPV") of $146 million at an 8% discount rate, and a mine life of 15 years.

The PEA economic analysis is based in part on Inferred Mineral Resources, and is preliminary in nature. Inferred Mineral Resources are considered too geologically speculative to have mining and economic considerations applied to them and to be categorized as Mineral Reserves. There is no certainty the economic forecasts based on this PEA will be realized.

Yorbeau's news release dated November 20, 2017 summarizes the assumptions and key results contained in the Technical Report. There are no material differences between the key results contained in Yorbeau's news release dated November 20, 2017 pertaining to the Scott Lake deposit, from those contained in the Technical Report filed today. Economic analysis in the Technical Report includes both pre-tax and after-tax results.

About Yorbeau Resources Inc.

The Company's 100% controlled Rouyn Property contains four known gold deposits in the 6-km-long Augmitto-Astoria corridor situated on the western half of the property. Two of the four deposits, Astoria and Augmitto, have substantial underground infrastructure and have been the subject of NI 43-101 technical reports that include resource estimates. In 2015, the Company expanded its exploration property portfolio by acquiring strategic base metal properties in prospective areas of the Abitibi Belt of Quebec and Ontario that also feature infrastructure favourable for mining development. The newly acquired base metal properties include Scott Lake which hosts important mineral resources and on which a positive Preliminary Economic Assessment was recently completed.
