DESERT MOUNTAIN ENERGY CORP. DISCOVERS NEW GAS FIELD IN ARIZONA WITH SIGNIFICANT GAS FLOWS AFTER COMPLETING BOTH NEW WELLS

Vancouver, British Columbia — DESERT MOUNTAIN ENERGY CORP. (the “Company”) (TSX.V: DME, U.S. OTC: DMEHF, Frankfurt: QM01) is pleased to announce that it has released the completion rig on both the State 10-1 and State 16-1 wells in Navajo County, Arizona. Flow tests have been conducted after perforating on both wells from zones where significant gas flows where found during drilling operations. The Company feels the pressure and volumes on both wells during testing fall well within the normal accepted oil and gas industry practices for determination of commercial flow rate protocols, with maximum non producibility volume speculations not taken into consideration.

Produced dry gas samples have been collected and sent to an independent lab for a total gaseous analysis. It is expected that results from these tests will take 7-10 days. The Company will address possible gas flow volumes, actual gross helium, other commercially viable rare earth gases and most likely production scenarios after testing results are received and reviewed by the team. It should also be noted the Company has fully restored and prepared both drilling locations for hydro seeding with native plant and grass species, when weather conditions are considered most favorable.

Significant probable pay zones were found in both wells. Each well had only 5’ perforated of the formation with the highest resistivity, porosity and neutron gas cross over on open hole wells logs combined with where the most significant gas flows had been encountered during the June and July drilling program. The Company utilized the newest design in booster charge perforation technologies on both wells to maximize initial production. These perforating charges were specifically selected to meet strict company geologic and drilling guidelines to eliminate the need for hydraulic fracturing and formation stimulation. This was accomplished via a single zone completion in both wells, proving up new field production from previously non-producing formations in Arizona. The Company considers it has other highly prospective pay zones within each well. Again, every formation the Company found containing gas in both wildcat wells would previously have been considered purely as speculative and will continue as such until the Company elects to drill, complete and test. Thereby establishing them first as additional prospective then productive formations.

Robert Rohlfing, CEO of the Company, crafted geologic studies within NE Arizona in October 1999 to search for what was felt to be a number of critical parameters required in relation to finding and then being able to cost effectively produce helium in Arizona. Careful application of the information it found via on the ground geologic studies, seismic and additional geophysical studies combined with many years of experience to delineate specific targets which would have the highest opportunity to drill and complete wells without the need to use large artificial formation stimulation, like is routinely done in many other geographical areas. The Company feels these additional proprietary minimum guidelines are key components in understanding overall the granularity of the entire spectrum of helium origination through production. The Company, continues with its own internal desire not to seek helium production from any zones where well completion would come from the same zone within a formation where potable water is withdrawn for human consumption.

DESERT MOUNTAIN ENERGY CORP AND THEIR COMMITMENTS TO ARIZONA

Desert Mountain Energy Corp. Continues to fulfill its promise of being an environmentally responsible partner in the State of Arizona. The Company is committed to protecting flowing treatable groundwater and have already and will continue to allocate funds for future projects that include isolating off these zones via cementing before drilling through, setting surface casing and cementing it into place.

The Company firmly believes that children are the future of Arizona and that their education is a top priority and are committed to being a responsible partner of the community in helping to provide a new revenue source to assist in funding education through the royalties it will be paying on the helium produced from its leases with the Arizona State Land Department.

DESERT MOUNTAIN ENERGY RESTRUCTURING MANAGEMENT TEAM AS ROBERT ROHLFING ASSUMES NEW ROLE AS CEO & CHAIRMAN WITH IRWIN OLIAN RETIRING FROM THESE POSITIONS

Vancouver, British Columbia — DESERT MOUNTAIN ENERGY CORP. (the “Company”) (TSX.V: DME, U.S. OTC: DMEHF, Frankfurt: QM01) is pleased to report that Robert Rohlfing has now assumed the new role as CEO, President and Chairman of the Company effective at this time, replacing Irwin Olian, who is retiring from these positions.  Irwin Olian, who founded the Company and ably served in these roles for the past 12 years, elected to retire from his ongoing day-to-day administrative responsibilities to devote more time to family, friends and other personal interests.  However, as founder and shareholder, he remains keenly committed to the Company’s success and will be providing value-added strategic advice and services to our team going forward as a Senior Financial Consultant under a consulting agreement.

The shift from Olian to Rohlfing at the helm of the Company is part of a management restructuring effort now underway to place seasoned oil & gas industry professionals in key leadership roles within the Company. Additions of new personnel to our management and technical teams are pending.   Having now drilled the initial two wells of the Company’s helium exploration program in Arizona’s Holbrook Basin and contemplating completion and testing of those wells next month as announced in our press release dated July 23, 2020, the Company is now looking ahead to its future which is contemplated to involve development activities and creation of gas infrastructure with a view toward potential helium production.

Robert Rohlfing’s skill set is well-suited to the long-term direction of the Company and he has served the Company ably as its Executive Vice-President of Exploration and Head of Technical Operations for the past two years.  In such capacities, he has overseen our exploration and drilling programs on a hands-on basis, while also interfacing with our financial department and entire management team as well as the capital markets.

Robert is highly qualified to assume his new role, as a seasoned oil & gas industry operations executive with over 25 years’ experience in formulating, conducting and managing successful exploration, drilling, development and production programs worldwide.  He has conducted exploration and drilling programs for a wide variety of companies for helium, hydrocarbons, precious metals and other minerals in diverse areas ranging from Arizona, Kansas, Oklahoma and Alaska in the U.S. to Papua New Guinea, Malaysia, Australia, Canada, Viet Nam and Cambodia.

According to Robert Rohlfing, new CEO of the Company, “We are grateful for Irwin Olian’s leadership over the past twelve years and wish to thank him for his many contributions.   He founded our predecessor African Queen Mines Ltd. and successfully navigated that company through the mining recession acquiring, developing and selling several gold projects.  During the past two years, he has overseen rebranding of the Company as Desert Mountain Energy Corp. in the Helium space and has helped to position the Company for success in its new direction.  We look forward to his continued contributions to our success in the future and wish him every success in his other endeavors.  I look forward to taking the reins from Irwin at this time, guiding the Company on the next phase of its success.”

DESERT MOUNTAIN ENERGY UPDATES PLANS FOR COMPLETION AND EVALUATION OF ITS TWO INITIAL WELLS IN ARIZONA’S HOLBROOK BASIN

Vancouver, British Columbia — DESERT MOUNTAIN ENERGY CORP. (the “Company”) (TSX.V: DME, U.S. OTC: DMEHF, Frankfurt: QM01) reports that it anticipates well perforation and completion work on its two initial wells, State 10-1 and State 16-1, will be commenced by mid-August, subject to completion rig availability.   Well completion and testing functions and analysis of downhole data would be expected to be complete by month-end.

Following the completion of drilling of each of the two initial wells to their desired total depth and the cementing of production casing, the Company took a brief hiatus to allow ample time for the downhole cement to properly cure before perforating and completion procedures are undertaken. Those completion procedures will include testing for flow rates, pressure and full gaseous analysis by an independent third party to delineate the composition and percentages of Helium and other gases present in the wells.

Management is pleased to report that none of its employees have thus far tested positive for covid-19.  The Company has instituted a number of protocols for social distancing, sanitization and other extra protections to minimize risk to its employees and contractors to the greatest extent possible. Thus far, the Company’s exploration and development plans have not been adversely impacted by the covid-19 pandemic.

The Company plans to make the results of testing and evaluation of its wells available as soon as practicable upon final testing.

DESERT MOUNTAIN ENERGY ENCOUNTERS GAS IN MULTIPLE ZONES AND SETS PRODUCTION CASING ON ITS SECOND EXPLORATORY WELL IN ARIZONA’S HOLBROOK BASIN

Vancouver, British Columbia — DESERT MOUNTAIN ENERGY CORP. (the “Company”) (TSX.V: DME, U.S. OTC: DMEHF, Frankfurt: QM01) is pleased to announce that it has encountered gas in multiple zones in its second wildcat exploratory well in Arizona’s Holbrook Basin.  DME Well No. State 16-1 (API No. 02-017-20131) encountered gas in four different zones aggregating approximately 194 ft. in width with excellent porosities.  The well was spudded on July 8 and was drilled to a total depth of 2,866 ft. Production casing has now been set to 2,841ft. and cemented.

Significant gas flows were encountered both during drilling and casing setting operations.  The helium content and composition of the gaseous mixture in the well remains unknown at this time, pending final well completion operations.  Complete laboratory gas analysis for helium and other gases will be undertaken at that time, together with studies of estimated flow production levels.

According to Robert Rohlfing, Executive V.P of Exploration and Head of Technical Operations for the Company, “Once again, it is very encouraging to have encountered a high number of controlled gas flows during our drilling and casing setting operations. I remind everyone, the presence and amount of helium in the gaseous mixture has not yet been determined.  We performed basic tests for the detection of gases which might be detrimental to the cement job, and no trace elemental Sulphur was found.   Going forward, our team will be reviewing all of the geophysical data from our first two wells and making strategic recommendations based on that data.”

The Company anticipates that well completion and testing procedures will be undertaken on both of the two initial wells in the near future, with results available as soon as practicable.
