C.PSYC

TORONTO, ONTARIO--(Marketwired - Dec. 1, 2016) - Duncan Park Holdings Corporation (TSX VENTURE:DPH) (the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has entered into an option to lease the Morningstar Property in Esmeralda County, Nevada, USA. The property consists of 33 unpatented mining claims. The agreement with SEKMD, LLC ("SEKMD") provides for a 90 day option period during which time the Company intends to carry out due diligence on the property.

Exercise of the option will be contingent on the results of the due diligence, the Company's ability to raise the necessary funds to carry out any initial exploration work and make the necessary payments to SEKMD, entering into a definitive lease agreement with SEKMD as well as receipt of all necessary regulatory and other approvals, including that of the TSX Venture Exchange.

The Morningstar Project is an historic epithermal gold-silver property located within the Walker Lane Structural Zone of Eastern Nevada. The Walker Lane has hosted numerous current and historic multi-million ounce gold and silver districts including Round Mountain, Goldfields, Tonopah, Comstock and Aurora. At Morningstar, several veins are exposed in historic workings and alteration is widespread over the entire property. Significant work has been completed on the property by previous workers including 25 reverse circulation rotary drill holes, detailed geologic and alteration mapping, soil and rock chip sampling and an IP Resistivity survey.

David R. Shaddrick, M.Sc., P.Geo., the Company's Acting President and CEO, is coordinating the execution of the Company's strategic plan. Mr. Shaddrick states: "the Morningstar property represents the first step in the implementation of our previously announced strategic plan and we expect to move forward aggressively to expand the Company's asset base and to strengthen our Board of Directors."

Mr. Shaddrick, M.Sc., P.Geo., a Qualified Person within the meaning of National Instrument 43-101, and an officer and director of the Company, has reviewed and approved the technical contents of this news release.
