ALERIO GOLD ANNOUNCES CEASE TRADE ORDER
February 29, 2024 – VANCOUVER, B RITISH COLUMBIA – Alerio Gold Corp. (CSE: ALE; OTC: ALEEF )
(“Alerio” or the “ Company”) announces that further to its news release dated January 2, 2024, and
updated January 23, 2024 , February 6, 2024 and February 20, 2024, the British Columbia Securities
Commission (the “BCSC”) has issued a failure to file cease trade order against the Company ("FTFCTO")
which orders that general trading, whether direct or indirect, by any person, of the securities of the
Company, cease, which includes trading of the shares of the Company on the Canadian Securities
Exchange.
The Company is diligently working with its auditor, Saturna Group Chartered Professional Accounts LLP to
conclude the filings at the earliest possible time and the Company will issue a news release announcing
completion of such filings at such time.
The Company announced via press release dated January 2, 2024 (the "Delayed Filing Announcement")
that it had submitted an application to the BCSC for a management cease trade order (the "MCTO")
pursuant to NP 12-203. The application for the MCTO was made in connection with the delay in filing the
Company's audited annual financial statements for the year ended August 31, 2023, the related
management's discussion and analysis, annual information form and CEO and CFO certifications (such
filings, collectively, the "Annual Filings"), which were required to be filed on or before December 30, 2023.
The MCTO was issued by the BCSC on January 2, 2024, extending the deadline for filing the Annual Filings
to February 28, 2024 . The MCTO prevented the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial
Officer from trading in the Company's securities but did not affect the ability of other shareholders,
including the public, to trade in securities of the Company.
The FTFCTO will remain in effect until the receipt by the BCSC of all filings the Company is required to
make under British Columbia securities law.
