Altamira clarifies sampling results at Crepori

and provides update on drill program

September 27th, 2017 – Altamira Gold Corp. (TSXV: ALTA) (FSE: T6UP) (USA: EQTRF),

(“Altamira” or the “Company”) at the request of IIROC, wishes to clarify certain disclosure in

its September 26 th, 2017 news release. T he high grade samples disclosed are grab samples, grab

samples are selective samples and are not representative of the mineralization hosted on the

property, which was previously extensively worked for placer gold by artisanal miners. The

current drilling program is aimed at identifying the source of this placer gold.

Of the 115 surface grab samples recently collected at Crepori , 56 samples were of saprolite or

weathered bedrock, with the remainder comprising rock samples. The surface grab samples were

collected mainly from four zones; Filao do Milton (24 samples), Ze de Ouro (10 samples) Filao de

Parente – Boiadeiro (33 samples) and Raimundo (24 samples). Samples were collected from both

outcropping veins and surrounding wall rock and range from below the analytical method detection

limit (5ppb) to 148.2g/t gold. Of the 115 samples collected, nine returned values above 5g/t gold,

eight returned values of 1 – 5 g/t gold, twenty-six returned values of 0.1 – 1g/t gold and the

remaining seventy-two samples returned values of less than 0.1g/t gold. All of the samples which

returned values above 1g/t gold were rock samples.

The company foll ows industry standar d procedures with a quality assurance/quality control

(QA/QC) program. Blank, duplicate and standard samples were inserted in each batch of samples.

Sample preparation and analysis was done at SGS GEOSOL in Vespasiano, Minas Gerais Sta te,

Brazil. Analysis is performed by fire assay with 50g fusion and Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy.

Altamira has completed two diamond drill holes thus far at the Crepori project, which has never

been subject to any prior drill program. Holes at the Filao do Milton and Raimundo targets have

been completed and the drill is currently testing the Ze de Bode target.
