Alerio Gold Receives Results of Remote Sensing Survey and Prepares for Start of
Fieldwork on the 100% Owned Tassawini Gold Project in Guyana.
Vancouver, British Columbia – December 8, 2022 – Alerio Gold Corp. (the “Company”) (ALE: CSE)
announces advancement of exploration activities on the Company’s 100% owned Tassawini Gold
Property (“Tassawini” or the “Property”), Guyana.
The Company recently contracted with Auracle Geospatial Science Inc ( “Auracle”) to complete an
updated topographic map as well as structural interpretation of the Property. The results of the
work generated several high priority Targets outside of the Tassawini Historical Resource area.
The remote sensing work conducted by Auracle, focused on locating and identifying sub surface
features within the Tassawini Project and the completion of an updated topographic surface with
the preparation of a new Digital Elevation Model (“DEM”). The DEM is a vital component to the
anticipated updated Mineral Resource Estimate and to future exploration and drill programmes.
Allan Fabbro director, comments: “the survey builds on the strong understanding of the structural
and stratigraphic controls to the gold mineralization at Tassawini with results generating high
priority targets which include untested extensions to the historical resource zones and new areas
interpreted to be highly prospective for previously unrecognized gold mineralization.” “This along
with the recent technical review of the data associated with Tassawini has given us a basis for
defining an upcoming work program designed to advance the Targets generated by the remote
sensing work. “
Mr. Greg Smith, P. Geo. Director of Alerio Gold, is a Qualified Person as defined by NI 43-101 and
has reviewed and approved the technical data and information contained in this news release. Mr.
Smith has verified the technical and scientific data disclosed herein and has conducted appropriate
verification on the underlying data.

(1) Notes for Historical Mineral Resource Estimate:
1. The estimation practices, at a cut-off grade of 0.5 grams of gold per tonne (g/t), were in accordance with CIM Estimation of
Mineral Resource and Mineral Reserve Best Practice Guidelines (November 29, 2019), and followed CIM Definition Standards
for Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves (May 10, 2014), that are incorporated by reference into National Instrument 43-
101 ("NI 43-101").
2. The estimate was completed by SRK dated July 21,2008 and revised on Feb. 10, 2010.
3. Data and procedures employed by SRK and the historical resource is considered reliable and it was a valid resource estimation
in 2010
4. The historic resource estimate used geological interpretation to prepare wireframes, data validation, and statistical analyses
including variograms. Composites were capped for gold grades, block size was determined by drill spacing, and grades were
estimated into the block model using ordinary kriging.
5. Mineral resource classification was carried out using a combination of drillhole spacing, geological and wireframe confidence.
Pit optimization studies were conducted to determine the depth to which resource estimates were reported.
6. Since 2010, a qualified person has not done sufficient work to classify the historical estimation as current mineral resources
and the Company is not treating the historical resource estimation as a current mineral resource. Additional confirmation
drilling and updated topographic surveying is required to update the historic resource estimate. The historical estimate should
not be relied upon.
7. The Historical Mineral Resource is detailed in the technical report titled "Tassawini Gold Project, Co-operative Republic of
Guyana", with an effective date of September 7, 2021, prepared by Kangari Consulting LLC for Project One Resources in
accordance with National Instrument 43-101 Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects and is available under Alerio’s SEDAR
profile at www.sedar.com.
