ALTAIR RESOURCES PROVIDES FURTHER UPDATE ON OPTION TO ACQUIRE
THREE ADVANCED GOLD AND SILVER EXPLORATION PROJECTS IN THE
TONOPAH DISTRICT, NEVADA
Vancouver, British Columbia May 1, 2024. ALTAIR RESOURCES INC. (“ALTAIR” or the Company”)
(TSX-V: AVX; Germany FRA: 90A; ISIN: CA02137W2004; WKN: WKN A2ALMP), in reference to its
press release dated February 14, 2024, is pleased to provide this further update on the Option and Acquisition
Agreement (the “Agreement”) with arm’s length parties, Electric Metals (USA) Ltd. (“EMPL ParentCo”), its
wholly owned subsidiar ies Electric Metals (USA) PTY Limited (“EMPL”) (EMPL ParentCo and EMPL
collectively referred to as the “Vendor”) , North American Silver Corporation (“NAS”) and Centennial Mining
Inc. (“Centennial”) in connection with the option to acquire up to 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of
NAS by the Company. NAS owns Centennial which holds mineral rights and rights to acquire mineral rights in
the State of Nevada in the United States of America (the “Properties”).
Following the receipt of conditional approval from the TSX Venture Exchange (the “Exchange”) for the
transactions contemplated by the Agreement , Altair has continued through the process of completing the
requirements for final approval, including the preparation of a Technical Report on Form NI 43-101. In spite of
difficult market conditions over the past few months, Altair has also had a number of discussions with potential
financing parties and has identified parties interested in assisting in financing. Altair continues to work toward
putting in place its financing plan for the acquisition. Altair is also working to finalize the debt conversion
contemplated in the Agreement. Altair has also made payments for the extension of the timing of option payments
on properties involved in the acquisition, as well as toward its option on the unrelated Simon property. Altair is
also in discussions with Vendor as to the timing and terms of the initial payment requirements under the
Agreement.
ALTAIR continues to work with Highlands Geoscience, including Mr. David Smith and Mr. Clyde Smith for the
preparation of the Technical Report.
The Agreement, which is subject to the approval of the TSX Venture Exchange (the “Exchange”) and is
considered an arms’ length transaction in accordance with applicable securities legislation , provides Altair with
an option to acquire the right to earn into the 9,429-acre Corcoran Canyon gold-silver project (“Corcoran”) along
with the Belmont gold-silver project (“Belmont”) and the Belmont North gold -silver project (“Belmont North”)
(collectively “Corcoran” or the “Corcoran Project”) in the Tonopah District in Nye County, Nevada from EMPL.
Corcoran hosts an exploration project covering a hill known as Silver Reef, an outcropping area of silver-gold
mineralized alteration on the Toquima Calder a margin, which also hosts another four or more mineralized
prospects within the Corcoran Project which have had negligible historical exploration work completed.
Belmont and Belmont South cover the areas of prolific historic silver districts in Nevada which were mined
primarily from surface workings. Both Belmont and Belmont South remain untested by drilling along trend and
at depth.
The Company believes there is potential in the area with numerous untested geophysical anomalies and unknown
down-dip extensions to the old mines.
