“estimates” or “intends”, or stating that certain actions, events or results “may”, “could”, “would”, “might” or “will”

be taken, occur or be achieved), and variations of such words, and similar expressions are not statements of historical

fact and may be forward -looking statements. Forward -looking statement are necessarily based upon a number of

factors that, if untrue, could cause the actual results, performances or achievements of the Company to be materially

different from future results, performances or achievements express or implied by such statements. Such statements

and information are based on numerous assumptions regarding present and future business strategies and the

environment in which the Company will operate in the future, including the price of metals. While such estimates and

assumptions are considered reasonable by the management of the Company, they are inherently subject to significant

business, economic, competitive and regul atory uncertainties and risks. In particular, there is no guarantee that

exploration work, as proposed, or otherwise, will be completed on the Company’s properties.

Forward-looking statements are subject to a variety of risks and uncertainties, which cou ld cause actual events, level

of activity, performance or results to differ materially from those reflected in the forward -looking statements,

including, without limitation: (i) risks related to commodity price fluctuations; (ii) risks and uncertainties re lating to

the interpretation of exploration results; (iii) risks related to the inherent uncertainty of exploration and cost estimates

and the potential for unexpected costs and expenses; (iv) that resource exploration and development is a speculative

business; (v) that the Company may lose or abandon its property interests or may fail to receive necessary licences

and permits; (vi) that environmental laws and regulations may become more onerous; (vii) that the Company may

not be able to raise additional funds when necessary; (viii) the possibility that future exploration, development or

mining results will not be consistent with the Company’s expectations; (ix) exploration and development risks,

including risks related to accidents, equipment breakdowns, labour disputes or other unanticipated difficulties with or

interruptions in exploration and development; (x) competition; (xi) the potential for delays in exploration or

development activities or the completion of geologic reports or studies; (xii) the un certainty of profitability based

upon the Company’s history of losses; (xiii) risks related to environmental regulation and liability; (xiv) risks

associated with failure to maintain community acceptance, agreements and permissions (generally referred to a s

“social licence”); (xv) risks relating to obtaining and maintaining all necessary government permits, approvals and

authorizations relating to the continued exploration and development of the Company’s projects; (xvi) risks related to

the outcome of lega l actions; (xvii) political and regulatory risks associated with mining and exploration; (xix) risks

related to current global financial conditions; and (xx) other risks and uncertainties related to the Company’s

prospects, properties and business strategy . These risks, as well as others, could cause actual results and events to

vary significantly. There can be no assurance that planned exploration will be completed as proposed or at all, or that

economic resources will be discovered or developed at the Company’s properties. Accordingly, actual results may

differ materially from those currently anticipated in such statements.

Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in forward looking statements include, but are

not limited t o, continued availability of capital and financing and general economic, market or business conditions,

equipment failures, the loss of key directors, employees, advisors or consultants and fees charged by service

providers. Investors are cautioned that forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance or events

and, accordingly are cautioned not to put undue reliance on forward -looking statements due to the inherent

uncertainty of such statements. The forward-looking statements included in this news release are made as of the date

hereof and the Company disclaims any intention or obligation to update or revise any forward -looking statements,

whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as expressly required by applicable

securities legislation.
