Goldrock Mails and Files Information Circular in Connection with Special Meeting of Shareholders

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwired - June 24, 2016) - Goldrock Mines Corp. (TSX VENTURE:GRM) ("Goldrock" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has mailed its management information circular and related proxy materials to shareholders of record as of June 17, 2016 in connection with its special meeting (the "Special Meeting") of shareholders (the "Goldrock Shareholders") to be held at Suite 2300, 1177 West Hastings Street, Vancouver, British Columbia, V6E 2K3 on July 25, 2016 at 10:00 a.m. (Vancouver Time). The meeting materials have also been filed on SEDAR (www.sedar.com) and on Goldrock's website at www.goldrockmines.com.

The Arrangement

The purpose of the Special Meeting is to seek approval of the previously announced statutory plan of arrangement (the "Arrangement") with Fortuna Silver Mines Inc. ("Fortuna"). The Arrangement will result in Goldrock Shareholders receiving 0.1331 of a Fortuna common share (each whole share, a "Fortuna Share") for each common share of Goldrock (each, a "Goldrock Share") held. On completion of the Arrangement, Fortuna will own and operate the existing business of Goldrock and former Goldrock Shareholders will become shareholders of Fortuna.

Benefits of the Arrangement

Some of the benefits of the Arrangement include, among others:

• Significant Premium to Goldrock Shareholders. The consideration to be received by the Goldrock Shareholders pursuant to the Arrangement represents premiums of 58.2% based on the June 6, 2016 (the day before the announcement of the Arrangement) closing price of Goldrock Shares on the TSX-V and the Fortuna Shares on the Toronto Stock Exchange, and 84.6% based on the 20-day volume-weighted average trading price of Goldrock Shares on the TSX-V as of June 6, 2016.

• Continued Participation by Goldrock Shareholders in the Lindero Project. Goldrock Shareholders will continue to participate in any value increases associated with the development and operation of the Lindero Project, which Fortuna has advised that it will be focused on bringing into production by 2018.

• Participation in a Company with Operating Projects. Goldrock Shareholders will have exposure to Fortuna's asset portfolio of operating mines, in particular the low-cost San Jose Mine, which diversifies Goldrock's single-asset and development-stage risks, as well as gold price exposure.

• Fortuna's Enhanced Financial Position. Fortuna has a strong balance sheet, access to low-cost credit facilities and free cash flow from Fortuna's producing mines.

• Increased Liquidity for Goldrock Shareholders. Fortuna Shares will likely present Goldrock Shareholders with increased trading liquidity, as Fortuna has a robust capital markets profile.

Goldrock Shareholders are encouraged to carefully read the management information circular and other meeting materials in detail as they contain important information regarding the Arrangement. In particular, the management information circular contains, among other things, details concerning the Arrangement, the risks associated with the Arrangement and the requirements for the Arrangement to become effective.
