Statements and MD&A due to COVID-19 related delays. Reschedules for July 14, 2020

Delta, British Columbia, June 1, 2020. Desert Gold Ventures Inc. (the “Company”) (TSX.V: DAU, FF: QXR2, OTC: DAUGF) announces the postponement of filing its interim financial statements (“Financial Statements”) and its interim management's discussion & analysis (“MD&A”) for the period ended March 31, 2019 due to logistics and delays caused by the COVID-19. The Company is relying on the British Columbia Securities Commission (the “Commission”) blanket order BCI 51-515 (the “Blanket Order”) for temporary exemption from certain corporate finance requirements.

Recent events pertaining to COVID-19 has impacted the Company and its employees and its auditors’ ability to rely on timely information and to prepare its Financial Statements and MD&A. According to the Blanket Order, during the period from March 31, 2020 to July 15, 2020 a person or company required to make certain filings as described in the Blanket Order has an additional 45 days from the deadline otherwise applicable under British Columbia securities laws to make the filing according to certain disclosure obligations by the Company. Pursuant to the Blanket Order, the Company is relying on the relief therein for its Financial Statements required by section 4.2 of National Instrument 51-102 and its MD&A required by subsection 5.1(2) of National Instrument 51-102.

Until the Company has filed and announced the required Financial Statements and MD&A, all management and other insiders are subject to the Company’s share trading and black-out policy that reflects the principles in section 9 of National Policy 11-207 Failure-to-File Cease Trade Orders and Revocations in Multiple Jurisdictions.

The Company estimates that the required disclosure required by British Columbia securities laws will be filed no later than July 14, 2020. There have been no unreported material business developments since the date of the last interim financial statements were filed on November 29, 2019.
