THUNDER BAY, ONTARIO, Mar 17, 2015 (Marketwired via COMTEX) — Source Exploration Corp. (the "Company" or "Source") (SOP) announces the commencement of a 2,000 metre diamond drilling program at its Las Minas property. The drilling will focus on delineating high-grade zones outlined by earlier drilling programs at the Santa Cruz and Juan Bran discovery areas in preparation for an initial mineral resource estimate.

The Santa Cruz zone, which is defined by a strong magnetic high anomaly, has returned multiple high-grade intercepts in recent drilling. Discovery hole LM-11-SC-45 graded 19.56 g/t Au Eq(1) over 10.0 metres, including 43.83 g/t Au Eq over 4.0 metres, within 20.0 metres grading 10.33 g/t Au Eq (Press Release January 26, 2012). Hole LM-14-SC-08 cut 3.57 g/t Au Eq over 99.0 metres, including 24.11g/t Au Eq over 9.60 metres, within 39.0 metres grading 7.42 g/t g/t Au Eq. And Hole LM-14-SC-10 assayed 5.62 g/t Au Eq over 17.0 metres (Press Release August 6, 2014).

Mineralized intercepts at Juan Bran included an upper zone of 6.0 metres grading 4.45 g/t Au Eq within a 42.5 metre interval assaying 1.55 g/t Au Eq. A lower zone assayed 3.10 g/t Au Eq over 15.1 metres (Press Release August 29, 2014). Step-out drilling to the north of the Juan Bran discovery holes intersected skarn mineralization over an area approximately 350 metres by 250 metres, with the system remaining open for expansion.

The Santa Cruz and Juan Bran zones are located 300 metres apart and form part of the mineralized Eldorado corridor skarn zone. The zones are believed to be contiguous. The El Dorado corridor has been intersected by drilling over 840 metres along strike and 400 metres down dip, with mineralized drill intercepts varying from 20 to 245 metres in length.

Brian Robertson, President & CEO, stated, "We are excited to kick off the 2015 drill program. The upcoming drill program will focus on systematically expanding the high-grade drill intercepts from the highly successful 2014 drilling. Although the property has a number of excellent exploration targets, we will be focused on resource drilling to quickly advance an initial mineral resource estimate."

(1) Gold equivalent (Au Eq) calculations use metal prices of US$1,200/oz.
for gold, US$19.00/oz. for silver and US$3.00/lb. for copper. No adjustments
have been made for potential relative differences in metal recoveries.
Au Eq g/t equals Au g/t + (Ag g/t x 0.016) + (Cu% x1.71).

About Las Minas

The Las Minas project hosts near-surface gold – silver and copper skarn mineralization and high-grade gold – silver epithermal vein deposits. The project is comprised of six mineral concessions covering approximately 1,616 hectares (3,995 acres), with several small scale, past-producing mines and a number of untested targets.

The district is host to one of the largest under explored gold – silver copper skarn systems known in Mexico, and has a production history that extends back to the Aztec era. The Las Minas granodiorite intrusive measures approximately 10 kilometres in diameter and underlies the Las Minas concessions. The mineralization controls and association with magnetite are similar to the famous Guerrero Gold belt, which is the site of the Los Filos and Morelos gold deposits.

Las Minas is an early-stage exploration project and does not contain any mineral resource estimates for purposes of National Instrument 43-101 Standards of Disclosure Mineral Project ("NI 43-101"). The potential quantities and grades disclosed herein are conceptual in nature and there has been insufficient exploration to define a mineral resource for the targets discussed herein. It is uncertain if further exploration will result in these targets being delineated as a mineral resource.

Quality Assurance/Quality Control

The technical information in this news release has been reviewed and approved by Sonny Bernales, P. Geo, a registered Professional Geoscientist in the Province of British Columbia and a qualified person as defined by NI 43-101. Mr. Bernales is responsible for logistics and supervision of all exploration activity conducted by Source on the property.

The Company has implemented and adheres to a strict Quality Assurance/Quality Control program which includes inserting mineralized standards and blanks into the sample stream, about 1 for every 10 samples. The standards and blanks were obtained from CDN Resource Laboratories Ltd. of Langley, BC, Canada. Each sample bag is properly sealed and kept in a secured, restricted storage place prior to shipping to the lab. Samples are shipped directly by Source or picked up by the lab vehicle with chain of custody/sample submittal signed and dated. The Company sends it samples to SGS Mineral Services (ISO/IEC 17025) at Durango, Mexico, an accredited laboratory. CDN Resource Laboratories and SGS are independent of the Company.
