News Release - Vancouver, British Columbia – January 8, 2025: GSP Resource Corp. (TSX-V: GSPR /
FSE: 0YD) (the “Company” or “GSP”) announces that it has amended the Alwin Project option agreement
(the “ Option Agreement ”) with Richard John Billingsley and S. Gaye Richards (the “ Vendors”) dated
January 30, 2020, as amended (see news releases dated January 30, 2020 and July 12, 2023), to accelerate the
remaining payment obligations under the Option Agreement to acquire a 100% interest in the Alwin Copper-
Silver-Gold Project (the “Alwin Project”) in southwestern British Columbia, Canada.
The parties have agreed to amend the Option Agreement to replace $62,500 of the remaining $125,000 cash
due to the Vendors on or before February 5, 2025 with 625,000 common shares of the Company (“Shares”)
on or before February 5, 2025 at a deemed issuance price of $0.10 per Share. A remaining $62,500 in cash
remains due to the Vendors on or before February 5, 2025. For clarity, the $50,000 cash payment due to the
Vendors on or before February 5, 2024 was previously extended by one year by the parties. Additionally, the
parties agreed to reduce the balance of the remaining Share payments by 1,000,000 Shares, such that an
aggregate of 1,900,000 Shares remain issuable to the Vendor under the Option Agreement: (i) 900,000 on or
before February 5, 2025; and (ii) 1,000,000 Shares on or before the earlier of a bankable feasibility study and
February 5, 2028. The amendment agreement also confirms that the GSR Royalty, as defined and disclosed
in the Company’s news release dated June 30, 2020 , is removed from the Option Agreement in entirety.
Furthermore, the amendment confirms that the three Crown Granted Mineral Claims (the “ CGs”) owned by
the Vendors that overlap with certain of the mineral claims comprising the Alwin Project as set forth in, and
attached to, the first amendment agreement to the Option Agreement dated November 27, 2020, are deemed
added to the Option Agreement as Schedule “A” thereto . The CGs are subject to a 2.5% net smelter royalty
payable to Franklin Dean Miller. All Shares issued to the Vendors will be subject to a statutory hold period of
four months and one date in accordance with applicable Canadian securities laws. The TSX Venture Exchange
has approved the amendments disclosed herein.
The Company intends to complete all remaining cash and Share payments due to the Vendors under the Option
Agreement within the following week and will announce the acquisition a 100% interest in the Alwin Project
at that time.
About the Alwin Mine Project
The Alwin Mine Copper-Silver-Gold property is approximately 344 hectares and is located on the semi-arid,
interior plateau in south-central British Columbia. The historic underground mine was developed over 500 m
long by 200 m wide by 300 m deep. Production took place between 1916 to 1981 from five major subvertical
high-grade copper mineralization zones totaling 233,100 tonnes that milled 3,786 tonnes of copper, 2,729
kilograms of silver and 46.2 kilograms of gold. The average diluted head grade was 1.5% copper.
The Alwin Project is adjacent with the western boundary of Teck Resources’ Highland Valley Mine, the
largest open-pit porphyry copper-molybdenum mine in western Canada. Alteration and mineralization of the
Highland Valley hydrothermal system extends westw ard from the Highland Valley mine onto the Alwin
Project (see GSP’s news release dated January 30, 2020).
