CHANGE IN REGISTRANT’S CERTIFYING ACCOUNTANT

Tombstone Exploration Corporation (the “Company”), is furnishing this current report on Form 6-K to report that on March 4, 2019, the Board of Directors of the Company approved the dismissal of Anton & Chia LLP (“AC”) as its independent certifying accountants.

The reports of AC on the Company's consolidated financial statements for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015 did not contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion, and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles.

During the Company's two most recent fiscal years and any subsequent interim period preceding the dismissal of AC, there were (i) no disagreements (as that term is described in Item 304 (a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K and the related instructions) with AC on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreement(s) if not resolved to the satisfaction of AC, would have caused AC to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreement(s) in connection with its report, and (ii) no reportable events of the type required to be disclosed by Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.

On March 4, 2019, the Company engaged Sadler, Gibb & Associates, LLC (“SGA”) to be its independent certifying accountants for the year ended December 31, 2018 and 2017.

During the Company’s most recent two fiscal years and through the subsequent interim period on or prior to March 4, 2019, neither the Company nor anyone on its behalf has consulted with SGA on either (a) the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, either completed or proposed, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Company’s financial statements, or (b) any matter that was the subject of a disagreement, as that term is defined in Item 16F(a)(1)(iv) of Form 20-F (and the related instructions thereto) or a reportable event as set forth in Item 16F(a)(1)(v)(A) through (D) of Form 20-F.

Prior to March 4, 2019, the Company did not consult with SGA regarding (1) the application of accounting principles to specified transactions, either completed or proposed, (2) the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Company’s financial statements, (3) written or oral advice was provided that would be an important factor considered by the Company in reaching a decision as to an accounting, auditing or financial reporting issues, or (4) any matter that was the subject of a disagreement between the Company and its predecessor auditor as described in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) or a reportable event as described in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.
