Agreements
VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwired - Sept. 5, 2017) - Revelo Resources Corp. ("Revelo" or the
"Company") (TSX VENTURE:RVL) is pleased to announce that it has signed definitive documentation with Hochschild Mining PLC
("Hochschild"), which gives Hochschild the option to earn a 100% interest in Revelo's Loro gold-silver project located in
northern Chile, as previously announced (see Company's news release dated June 06,
2017).
Hochschild can earn a 100% interest in the Loro Project over a maximum of five (5) years in exchange for a series of in-ground

NSR Royalty on future production to Revelo of 1%.
Exploration activity is expected to commence on or before October 2017. Revelo will initially operate Phase 1 and 2 of the

agreement.
Loro, which is a new discovery, is located in an important precious metals mineral district in northern Chile and is situated
