country’s panorama in precious and base metal projects in all development stages. The company is headed
by Mr. Hercules Guionis, a senior mining engineer resident in Brazil since 1993. Metallon’s exploration
team of professionals is monitored by Mr. José Alírio Lenzi, a permanent part time consultant and advisor
associated to Metallon for more than 15 years and who will actively assist in property evaluations.

extensive experience in all phases of mineral exp loration from grassroots to feasibility and held board or
senior leadership roles with successful exploration and mining companies in South America. His efforts to
date have eventually culminated in the discovery and development of gold projects that sum a ll together
over 10 million ounces of gold.
Mr. Lenzi graduated from the Unisinos University, Rio Grande do Sul, in 1980 and has since held senior
positions with renowned mining and exploration groups such as the Votorantim Group (cement & coal), the

In the Western United States, the Company has engaged Mr. Stephen McKay to assist in not only evaluating
property submittals but also in staking new claims where deemed advantageous. Mr. McKay is a seasoned
exploration geologist with over 30 years of experience in gold and base metals in the Western United States.
As the principal of McKay Mineral Exploration for over 9 years, Mr. McKay has assisted clients with their
mineral exploration needs, beginning with mineral target evaluation, to land negotiations, to mine
development, including staking mining claims, geochemical and geophysical sampling, mapping, setting up
drilling programs and reclamation programs. His previous work experience includes as a Geologist and
Exploration Field Manager for North American Exploration in Utah for 15 years, as well as serving as an
Exploration Manager for Nevada Star in Mexico and Alaska and Interior Exploration in Alaska.
Mr. McKay has recently staked a gold property in Nevada that the Company is evaluating at this time for
potential acquisition. He will also be assisting the Company with further work on the Company’s Simon
project.
George S. Young said “While we continue to work in West Africa and Central Asia as conditions in those
jurisdictions stabilize, we are availing ourselves of opportunities in the Western Hemisphere as well . We
are most pleased to welcome Metallon Exploration & Mining Inc, and their principal consulting economic
geologist to work with us at Altair. I first became acquainted with Jose in 1992 as we worked together on
the San Gregorio project in Uruguay for American Resource Corporation. Jose possesses unique skills in
identifying and delineating economic mineralization and will be invaluable to the Company with his
experience in Brazil. We also are quite fortunate to be able to engage the services of Stephen McKay, a
very respected geologist who i s especially adept at identifying and staking gold and base metal
mineralization in the Western United States. I witnessed his proficiency in claim staking on a large lithium
project in the Great Basin in 2017 – 2019. We will benefit greatly from Metallon’s, Jose’s and Stephen’s
knowledge of the industry , their numerous contacts, and their expertise. We look forward to adding
additional value to t he Company’s prospects at the same time as Altair continues its acquisition and
development programs in Burkina Faso.”
