Edmonton, Alberta--(Newsfile Corp. - September 10, 2020) - Cortus Metals Inc. (TSXV: CRTS) (the "Company", or "Cortus") is pleased to announce that, further to its press release dated September 1, 2020 regarding the closing of its qualifying transaction (the "Transaction") to acquire the Grayson and Powerline mineral properties in North-Central Nevada with an oversubscribed $2.5 million private placement, the Company's common shares are scheduled to resume under the symbol "CRTS" at the market opening on September 10, 2020.

CEO Sean Mager commented, "The Grayson and Powerline projects are just the tip of the iceberg for our foray into Nevada and beyond. They will provide a foothold for our innovative methodology and a rapid growth strategy in The Great Basin. Our enthusiasm has been echoed by ground-floor investors and third parties alike, who welcome the opportunity to participate as we advance our expanding project portfolio in the context of a surging gold market. With the concerted effort of in-house and third-party exploration, we look forward to generating significant gold and silver discoveries and the commensurate shareholder returns in the months and years to come."

Immediately prior to the completion of the Transaction, the Company completed a split on the basis of two (2) new shares for each one (1) old share (the " Split"), which was conducted on a "push-out" basis and therefore the Company's CUSIP number remains the same.

On behalf of the Board of Directors
