Neither the TSX Venture Exchange nor its Regulation Services Provider(as that term is defined in the policies of the

This news release includes certain forward-looking statements which are not comprised of historical facts. Forward-
looking statements include estimates and statements that describe the Company’s future plans, objectives or goals, including
words to the effect that the Company or management expects a stated condition or result to occur. Forward-looking
statements may be identified by such terms as “believes”, “anticipates”, “expects”, “estimates”, “may”, “should”, “could”,
“would”, “will”, or “plan”. Since forward-looking statements are based on assumptions and address future events
and conditions, by their very nature they involve inherent risks and uncertainties. Although these statements are based
on information currently available to the Company, the Company provides no assurance that actual results will meet
management’s expectations. Risks, uncertainties, and other factors involved with forward-looking information could
cause actual events, results, performance, prospects, and opportunities to differ materially from those expressed or implied
by such forward- looking information. Forward-looking information in this news release includes, but is not limited to,
the Company’s objectives, goals or future plans, statements, potential mineralization, exploration and development
results, the estimation of mineral resources, exploration and mine development plans, timing of the commencement of
operations and estimates of market conditions. There can be no assurance that forward-looking statements will prove to
be accurate and actual results and future events could differ materially from those anticipated in such statements.
Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from EDM’s expectations include, among others, the
degree to which mineral resource and reserve estimates are reflective of actual mineral resources and reserves, the
degree to which factors are present which would make a mineral deposit commercially viable, the price of zinc, lead and
gypsum, uncertainties relating to availability and costs of financing needed in the future, changes in equity markets,
risks related to international operations, the actual results of current exploration activities, delays in the development
of projects, conclusions of economic evaluations and changes in project parameters as plans continue to be refined as well
as future prices of metals, ability to predict or counteract potential impact of COVID-19 coronavirus on factors relevant
to the Company’s business, as well as those factors discussed in the section entitled “Risk Factors” in EDM’s
management’s discussion and analysis of the Company's annual financial statements for the period ended December 31,
2023. Although EDM has attempted to identify important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially, there
may be other factors that cause results to be not as anticipated, estimated or intended. There can be no assurance that such
statements will prove to be accurate as actual results and future events could differ materially from those anticipated in
