Select Sands Sells Non-Core Asset for $700,000USD

October 17, 2019 –  Vancouver, BC, Canada – Select Sands Corp. (“Select Sands” or the “Company”) (TSXV:SNS, (OTC:SLSDF) announces that its wholly owned subsidiary, Select Sands America Corp., has recently sold its 457-acre Bell Farm property for $700,000 USD subject to a 20-year deed restriction to any sand mining on the property. The Company will retain the exclusive rights to lift the deed restriction within the 20 year restricted period. The sale proceeds will be used to paydown approximately $252,000 in company debt. The balance of the net proceeds shall be used to strengthen the Company’s balance sheet, and to fund Company operations.

The Company also announces that it is moving one of its wet process plants to its Sandtown Quarry, Arkansas, with a continued view to consolidating as many processing assets as practical, including moving as many assets as possible closer to the Sandtown Quarry mine in order to minimize inter-plant transportation and improve cost efficiencies.

Bell Farm was not being developed or mined by the Company and was considered a non-core and non-essential asset.

Sandtown is currently producing a Northern White sand (40/70, 30/50 and 100 mesh) and in February of 2016 completed a 43-101 compliant resource calculation with 41.98 million tons of Indicated Mineral Resources in relation to its Sandtown Quarry (See February 10, 2016 News Release). Sandtown is considered of sufficient size to meet the Company’s anticipated near and long-term demand for Northern White sand. As market conditions permit, the Company is targeting to increase capacity to one million tons of Northern White Sand per year to be mined out of the Sandtown Quarry.

The Company continues to engage in potential M&A discussions with third parties. There is no assurance that any deal will be entered into. The Company will provide updates if and when appropriate. In addition to potential M&A opportunities, it is also the time of year when Select Sands is participating in RFQ processes with various existing and potential new customers. Select Sands continues to aggressively pursue new business.
