The Shares will be subject to restrictions on resale until October 12, 2020.  Southern Empire paid qualified finders a fee of $133,328 and issued 116,800 shares to qualified finders pursuant to the Offering.

Subsequent to the Offering, Southern Empire will have 50,906,800 common shares issued and outstanding.

About Southern Empire Resources Corp.

Southern Empire is focused on the acquisition, exploration and development of gold deposits in North America, currently with two projects in the American southwest.

In the Cargo Muchacho mountains of Imperial County, southeast California, Southern Empire holds an option to acquire a 75% interest in the approximately 2,160 hectare (5,338 acre) Oro Cruz Property located 22.5 km (14 miles) southeast of the Mesquite gold mine of Equinox Gold Corp. With a history that includes extensive drilling and large-scale open pit and underground mining that was suspended during the gold market downturn in 1996, the Oro Cruz Gold Project hosts numerous exploration targets in addition to a high-grade oxide gold zone that, based on the historical mine records, is amenable to conventional heap leach extractive methods.

Southern Empire also owns an 85% interest in the 817 hectare (2,020 acre) Eastgate Gold Project, located 81 kilometres (50 miles) southeast of the city of Fallon in Churchill County, Nevada. Southern Empire's goal is to expand on the results from historical small-scale mining and Reverse Circulation drilling and define a high-grade gold/silver deposit hosted by multiple, steeply dipping, subparallel low-sulphidation, quartz-adularia epithermal vein systems occurring on the property.
