Vancouver, BC – March 2, 2021, Ethos Gold Corp. (“Ethos” or the “Company”) (TSXV: ECC; OTCQB: ETHOF; Frankfurt: 1ET) today announces that its Board of Directors has approved a drill program on its fully permitted Perk-Rocky Copper-Gold Porphyry Project (“Perk-Rocky”) located ~ 200 kilometers west of Williams Lake at the western end of a northwest trending linear array of porphyry copper mines and development projects including Highland Valley (Teck), New Afton (New Gold Inc.), Yalakom (Barrick) and New Prosperity (Taseko Mines Ltd.). The Perk-Rocky project contains a highly prospective, extensive 8 by 5-kilometer porphyry-style alteration footprint that may be related to one or more porphyry centers and contains copper sulphides at surface. Perk-Rocky is one of few road accessible, metal endowed magmatic-hydrothermal systems in British Columbia that has never been drill tested.

Craig Roberts, P.Eng., CEO of Ethos stated: “We are very excited to begin our inaugural drill program at our fully-permitted Perk-Rocky copper-gold porphyry project. In addition, we have launched plans to aggressively advance four highly-prospective gold exploration projects to drilling by year-end. Led by a strong technical team with a history of world-class discoveries, and with a portfolio of district-scale opportunities, Ethos is well positioned for success in 2021.”

Ethos is also pleased to announce that planning is underway to launch drill programs in 2021 on four district-scale gold projects, including Perk-Rocky (BC), Savant Lake (Ontario), Schefferville (Quebec), Toogood (Newfoundland), and Iron Point (Nevada). The Company intends to carry out non-brokered private placements of flow-through units to raise gross proceeds of up to C$1,200,000 to fund its planned exploration activities.

2021 Perk-Rocky Drill Program Highlights:

• Perk-Rocky (100% earn-in) is a large copper-gold porphyry target located within a major copper deposit trend in Central BC, fully permitted for drilling.
• The project exhibits extensive copper-gold mineralization over an 8km x 5km area. Work to date indicates that multiple porphyry centers may be present on the property with three high- priority target areas now defined.
• Widespread telescoped low- to high- temperature alteration suggests that overprinting mineralized systems may be present. Preserved high-level environment which is supported by

localised advanced argillic alteration and 50+ Cu showings at surface suggests that the highest- grade positions within zoned porphyries may be present (Figure 1).

• Inaugural drill program will focus on three targets, with 3-4 holes, totaling approximately 2,000 metres. Drilling is expected to begin in May-June.

2021 Drill Plans:

Following significant field work and desktop analysis from the Ethos’s technical team, the Company anticipates advancing multiple drill campaigns on four gold projects in 2021, including:

• Savant Lake (Ontario, 70% earn-in): mobilization of field crews in early spring with the intention of ground truthing target areas followed by drilling in Q3, 2021.
• Toogood (Newfoundland, 100% owned / 100% earn-in): mapping and sampling program followed by a ground truthing program planned for the spring of 2021. An initial drill program is planned for later in 2021.
• Iron Point (Nevada, 50% earn-in): Drilling of select targets is expected to commence in 2021.
• Schefferville (Quebec, 100% owned / 100% earn-in): continued analysis of recently acquired project data and plans to commence field work in the spring of 2021 with the intention of developing drill targets for testing later in 2021-2022.
