Tinka Drills 5.7 Metres At 32.6% Zinc At Ayawilca

September 5th, 2019

Vancouver, Canada – Tinka Resources Limited (“Tinka” or the “Company”) (TSXV & BVL: TK) (OTCPK: TKRFF) is pleased to announce assay results for two recent holes drilled at the Company’s 100%-owned Ayawilca Property in central Peru. Drilling is continuing with one rig operating at the South Ayawilca area, with the focus on expanding and upgrading the high-grade ‘Zinc Zone’ mineralization as defined in the Company’s recent Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA).

Hole A19-163 intercepted two intervals of high grade zinc mineralization close to the margin of the current inferred resource. The hole intersected one of the highest grade intervals ever drilled at South Ayawilca.In addition, a new style of silver-rich mineralization with disseminated zinc - lead was intersected deeper in hole A19-163 within a down-faulted limestone more than 100 metres beneath the current resource, with mineralization remaining open to the west and at depth. The footprint of the mineralization at Ayawilca continues to expand, and still offers exciting exploration upside.

Key Highlights from hole A19-163:

Zinc Zone:

34.7 metres grading 6.7% zinc, 11 g/t silver and 86 g/t indium from 171.0 metres, including
5.7 metres grading 9.7% zinc, 12 g/t silver and 147 g/t indium from 199.1 metres; and
5.7 metres grading 32.6% zinc, 20 g/t silver and 89 g/t indium from 228.0 metres; and

Lower Silver Zone:

13.9metres grading 1.0% zinc, 0.6% lead and 128 g/t silver from 397.7 metres, including
0.6 metres grading 5.4% zinc, 3.5% lead and 818 g/t silver from 397.7 metres depth.

Note: True thicknesses of the Zinc Zone intersections are estimated to be at least 85% of the downhole thicknesses. The true thickness of the Lower Silver Zone intersection cannot be determined at this time as insufficient data is available.
