In the Matter of Preston Royalty Corp.; Order of Suspension of 
Trading

September 2, 2016.
    It appears to the Securities and Exchange Commission that the 
public interest and the protection of investors require a suspension of 
trading in the securities of Preston Corp. (a/k/a Preston Royalty 
Corp.) (CIK No. 0001594219) because of questions regarding the adequacy 
and accuracy of available information about Preston Corp. in light of a 
false statement about the permitting status of a mine in the company's 
August 10, 2016 press release and questions regarding the adequacy and 
accuracy of clarifications Preston Corp. provided in a September 1, 
2016, press release about the mining project. Preston Corp. is a Nevada 
corporation whose principal place of business is located in Austin, 
Texas. Its stock is quoted on OTC Link (previously ``Pink Sheets'') 
operated by OTC Markets Group, Inc. under the ticker symbol PSNP.
    The Commission is of the opinion that the public interest and the 
protection of investors require a suspension of trading in the 
securities of the above-listed company.
    Therefore, it is ordered, pursuant to Section 12(k) of the 
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, that trading in the securities of the 
above-listed company is suspended for the period from 9:30 a.m. EDT on 
September 2, 2016, through 11:59 p.m. EDT on September 16, 2016.
