BOREALIS ANNOUNCES PRODUCTION OF APPROXIMATELY 550 OZ OF GOLD FROM THE BOREALIS MINE
Vancouver, British Columbia – January 22, 2024 – Borealis Mining Company Limited (TSXV: BOGO; FSE: L4B0)
(the “Company” or “Borealis”) is pleased to provide an update on revenue-generating and operational activities from
the Borealis Mine site. The Company has sold its final shipment of doré produced in 2024 to Asahi Refining for a total
of 190.79 troy oz and 119.88 troy oz of recoverable gold and silver, respectively. The Company also has shipped ~24
tonnes of spent and gold-laden carbon to be processed at Just Refiners containing an estimated 368 troy ounces of
gold and 997 troy ounces of silver.
Three doré bars were recently sold to Asahi Refining of Salt Lake City, UT. This shipment of doré contained 190.79 troy
oz of gold and 119.88 troy oz of silver, recovered from stripping loaded carbon as part of ongoing residual leaching of
Borealis’ permitted heap leach pad. Borealis intends to increase the amount of gold production in 2025 through the
crushing of its ~330,000 ton stockpile of mineralized oxide material.
In preparation for the upcoming stockpile crushing and processing program, Borealis is replacing the carbon in its
ADR circuit, which will allow for increased loading capacity and efficiency of leaching and stripping. As part of the
replacement of the carbon, Borealis has emptied the carbon columns in its ADR facility of spent gold -laden carbon.
This spent carbon, containing approximately 368 troy ounces of gold and 997 troy ounces of silver as determined by
independent assays of representative samples, has been shipped to Just Refiners of Reno, NV, for refining and eventual
sale. The exact number of sale able ounces of both gold and silver will be determined once the refining process i s
complete.
Kelly Malcolm, CEO of Borealis, comments “ We are pleased to be seeing continued revenues coming from the full y
permitted Borealis minesite, particularly with gold at record highs. We are also very excited to be preparing for the
upcoming stockpile crushing and leaching project, which should generate significant revenue at a relatively low cost.
This is the first step on the pathway to resumption of consistent revenue at Borealis. Looking further ahead, our team
and external consultants have been working diligently on a mine plan to get the Borealis mine up and running. We
are one of the few junior mining companies with a fully built and permitted mine and processing facilities that is able
to take advantage of these record gold prices and we are working hard to develop a plan to get gold out of the ground.”
