CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD -LOOKING INFORMATION: This news
release includes certain “forward -looking statements” under applicable Canadian securities
legislation. All statements in this news release that address events or developments that we e xpect to
occur in the future are forward -looking statements. Forward -looking statements are statements that
are not historical facts and are generally, although not always, identified by words such as “expect”,
“plan”, “anticipate”, “project”, “target”, “p otential”, “schedule”, “forecast”, “budget”,
“estimate”, “intend” or “believe” and similar expressions or their negative connotations, or that
events or conditions “will”, “would”, “may”, “could”, “should” or “might” occur. All such forward-
looking stateme nts are based on the opinions and estimates of management as of the date such
statements are made. Forward-looking statements are necessarily based on estimates and assumptions
that are inherently subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors, many of which
are beyond our ability to control, that may cause our actual results, level of activity, performance or
achievements to be materially different from those expressed or implied by such forward -looking
information. Such factors includ e, without limitation, Public Health Crises, including the COVID -19
Pandemic; changes in the price of gold, silver, copper and other metals in the world markets;
fluctuations in the price and availability of infrastructure and energy and other commodities;
fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates; volatility in price of our Common Shares; inherent
risks associated with the mining industry, including problems related to weather and climate in remote
areas in which certain of the Company’s operations are located; failure to achieve production, cost
and other estimates; risks and uncertainties associated with exploration and development; the fact that
a feasibility studying of mineral reserves demonstrating economic and technical viability has not been
prepared for the Kainantu Mine; uncertainties relating to estimates of mineral resources including
uncertainty that mineral resources may never be converted into mineral reserves; the Company’s
ability to carry on current and future operations, including development and exploration activities; the
timing, extent, duration and economic viability of such operations, including any mineral resources or
reserves identified thereby; the accuracy and reliability of estimates, projections, forecasts, studies and
assessments; the Company’s ability to meet or achieve estimates, projections and forecasts; the
availability and cost of inputs; the price and market for outputs, including gold, silver and copper;
inability of the Company to identify appropriate acquisition targets or complete desirable acquisitions;
failures of information systems or information security threats; political, economic and other risks
associated with the Company’s foreign operations; geopolitical events and other uncertainties, such
as the con flict in Ukraine; compliance with various laws and regulatory requirements to which the
Company is subject to, including taxation; the ability to obtain timely financing on reasonable terms
when required; the current and future social, economic and political conditions, including relationship
with the communities in jurisdictions it operates; other assumptions and factors generally associated
with the mining industry; and the risks, uncertainties and other factors referred to in the Company’s
Annual Information Form under the heading “Risk Factors”. Estimates of mineral resources are also
forward-looking statements because they constitute projections, based on certain estimates and
assumptions, regarding the amount of minerals that may be encountered in the future and/or the
anticipated economics of production, should mining occur. Forward -looking statements are not a
guarantee of future performance, and actual results and future events could materially differ from
those anticipated in such statements. Altho ugh we have attempted to identify important factors that
could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in the forward-looking statements,
there may be other factors that cause actual results to differ materially from those that are 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 such statements.
Accordingly, readers should not place undue reliance on forward -looking statements. 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 required by law.
