Belo Sun Reports On Two Court Rulings

Belo Sun Reports On Two Court Rulings

TORONTO, April 26, 2022 -- Belo Sun Mining Corp.  (“Belo Sun ” or the “Company”) (TSX: BSX; OTCQX: BSXGF) provides a

corporate update reporting on rulings by the Court of Appeals of the Federal Justice in Brasília (the “Court”): 

The two cases before the Court were (i) the determination of the competent authority for the environmental permitting of the

Volta Grande Gold Project (SEMAS or IBAMA) (see press release dated July 12, 2019, link: Belo Sun Mining Corp: News );

and (ii) ruling on the suspension order against the Volta Grande Construction License (see press release dated December 6,

2017, link: Belo Sun Mining Corp: News Releases).

The Court has verbally advised the Company of the rulings, however it has yet to publish the written details of the ruling. Belo

Sun will provide an update on the ruling if the written decision is materially different than what was verbally announced by the

Court once details of the decision have been published.

SEMAS or IBAMA Authority

Belo Sun reports that a three-judge panel of the Court has decided to postpone the ruling on the competent permitting

authority for the environmental permitting of the Volta Grande Gold Project. The Court ruled that all parties will be notified to

present additional statements regarding synergic impacts with the Volta Grande Gold Project.

Until the Court issues a ruling, SEMAS (State Environmental Agency for the Government of Para) will continue to act as the

competent authority for the environmental permitting of the Volta Grande Gold Project.

Construction License (LI) Suspension

Belo Sun reports that a three-judge panel decision by the Court has ruled unanimously that it will not lift the Construction

Licence suspension. The ruling of the Court decided that SEMAS will analyze if the indigenous studies’ conditions have been

met. Furthermore, the Court ruled that the Federal Court in Altamira will verify, after SEMAS’ decision regarding the matter,

whether the Company has fulfilled the conditions required in the Court's ruling issued in December 2017.

Belo Sun, while disappointed that the suspension was not immediately lifted, is pleased that the company is now in a position

where the environmental licensing procedure can move forward without having to wait for a new ruling from the Court of Appeals

of the Federal Justice in Brasilia.
