Cypress Development Completes Purchase of Permit for Water Rights in Clayton Valley, Nevada

December 8, 2021 – Vancouver, Canada – Cypress Development Corp. (TSXV: CYP) (OTCQB: CYDVF) (Frankfurt: C1Z1) (“Cypress” or “the Company”) is pleased to report it has completed the purchase of Permit 44411 and Certificate 13631 (the “Permit”) from Intor Resources Corp., a subsidiary of Nevada Sunrise Gold Corp. (“Nevada Sunrise”). The remaining cash purchase consideration of US$2,000,000 and the title deed were released from escrow to the respective parties, along with Cypress shares in the value of US$850,000 issued to Nevada Sunrise, as the final component of the purchase consideration. The Permit is an essential piece of Cypress’ strategy to develop its Clayton Valley Lithium Project in Nevada.

“Water resources in Nevada are limited, therefore the acquisition of this Permit by Cypress represents a milestone which will secure a majority of the Project’s future water requirements” stated Bill Willoughby, President and CEO of Cypress.

The Permit allows for the appropriation of the public waters of the State of Nevada in the amount of 1,770 acre-feet of groundwater per year for mining, milling and domestic applications. This amount represents the largest single volume of permitted water available in the Clayton Valley, which is a fully appropriated hydrogeographic basin.
