events or results "may" or "could", "would", "might" or "will" be taken to occur or be achieved) are not statements of historical
fact and may be forward-looking statements. In this news release, forward-looking statements relate to, among other things,
the Company’s objectives, goals and exploration activities conducted and proposed to be conducted at the Company’s
properties; future growth potential of the Company, including whether any proposed exploration programs at any of the
Company’s propertie s will be successful; exploration results; and future exploration plans and costs and financing
availability.
These forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions and estimates of management of the Company
at the time such statements were made. Actual future results may differ materially as forward -looking statements involve
known and unknown risks , uncertainties and other factors which may cause the actual results, performance or
achievements of the Company to materially differ from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or
implied by such forward -looking statements. Such factors , among other things, include: the expected benefits to the
Company relating to the exploration conducted and proposed to be conducted at the Company’s properties; failure to
identify any mineral resources or significant mineralization; the preliminary nature of metallurgical test results; uncertainties
relating to the availability and costs of financing needed in the future, including to fund any exploration programs on the
Company’s properties; fluctuations in general macroeconomic conditions; fluctuations in securities markets; fluctuations in
spot and forward prices of gold, silver, base metals or certain other commodities; fluctuations in currency markets (such
