Caution regarding forward-looking statements
This press release contains "forward-looking information" that is based on Bonterra's current
expectations, estimates, forecasts, and projections. This forward-looking information includes, among
other things, statements with respect to the earn-in and joint venture agreement with Osisko Mining
announced on November 28, 2023. The words "will", "anticipated", "plans" or other similar words and
phrases are intended to identify forward-looking information. This forward-looking information includes
namely information with respect to the planned exploration programs and the potential growth in mineral
resources. Exploration results that include drill results on wide spacing may not be indicative of the
occurrence of a mineral deposit and such results do not provide assurance that further work will establish
sufficient grade, continuity, metallurgical characteristics, and economic potential to be classed as a
category of mineral resource. The potential quantities and grades of drilling targets are conceptual in
nature and, there has been insufficient exploration to define a mineral resource, and it is uncertain if
further exploration will result in the targets being delineated as mineral resources. Forward-looking
information is subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause
Bonterra's actual results, level of activity, performance, or achievements to be materially different from
those expressed or implied by such forward-looking information. Such factors include but are not limited
to: uncertainties related exploration and development; the ability to raise sufficient capital to fund
exploration and development; changes in economic conditions or financial markets, environmental and
other judicial, regulatory, political, and competitive developments; technological or operational difficulties
or inability to obtain permits encountered in connection with exploration activities; and labour relations
matters. This list is not exhaustive of the factors that may affect our forward-looking information. These
and other factors should be considered carefully, and readers should not place undue reliance on such
forward-looking information.
