VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA, Mar 20, 2015 (Marketwired via COMTEX) — San Marco Resources Inc. (SMN) ("San Marco" or "the Company") has commenced its 2015 exploration program on the Cuatro de Mayo project in Sonora State, Mexico. The Company's geological team is currently on site, conducting a systematic data and field review of gold targets in the El Valle and El Chunibas areas (seewww.sanmarcocorp.com for news releases related to these targets and maps of the Cuatro de Mayo property area). With minimal additional work, these two zones are expected to be ready for drill testing. Initial surface rock chip sampling, geological mapping and possibly hand trenching are also expected to be completed on two highly prospective areas of the recently acquired Mariana concession by the end of March. The Company continues to evaluate potential additions to its 93,000 hectare Cuatro de Mayo land position.

San Marco also announces that its board of directors has amended the Company's incentive stock option plan (the "Plan"), revising it from a "20% fixed number" stock option plan to a "10% rolling" plan. Based on the current issued capital, the Company will have 2,549,971 common shares available for option under the Plan, which number includes currently outstanding options to purchase a total of 1,195,000 common shares.

Pursuant to the amended Plan, the Company has granted options to two officers and a consulting geological advisor to purchase 100,000 shares each at a deemed price of $0.10 per share.

The amended Plan, and by extension the option grant announced herein, are subject to shareholder and TSX Venture Exchange approvals. Shareholder approval will be sought at the Company's annual general meeting scheduled for May 7, 2015.
