MATHESON, Ontario, Canada, September 25, 2024 – Mayfair Gold Corp. (TSX-V: MFG,
OTCQB: MFGCF) (“ Mayfair” or the “ Company”) is pleased to announce that it intends to
complete a financing of common shares by way of a non-brokered private placement for
aggregate proceeds of approximately $6 million, subject to increase at the discretion of the board
of directors of the Company (the “ Offering”). Participation in the Offering will be led by the

Offering.
The Offering is expected to be for up to 3,340,000 common shares at a price of $1.80 per share.
The closing of the Offering is expected to occur on or before October 1, 2024 (the “Closing Date”)
and is subject to receipt of all applicable regulatory approvals, including approval of the TSX
Venture Exchange (the “ TSXV”). The proceeds raised from the Offering will be used by the
Company for permitting and feasibility studies, general and administrative expenses and working
capital.
The common shares issued under the Offering will be subject to a statutory hold period of four
months and one day from the Closing Date.
This news release does not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy any of the
securities in the United States. The securities have not been and will not be registered under the
United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "U.S. Securities Act") or any state
securities laws and may not be offered or sold within the United States or to U.S. Persons unless
registered under the U.S. Securities Act and applicable state securities laws or an exemption from
such registration is available.
The Offering is expected to be a related party transaction subject to Multilateral Instrument 61-
101 - Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions (" MI 61-101") as a result of
the participation of Muddy Waters and possibly other insiders of the Company, but exempt from
the formal valuation requirements of MI 61-101 pursuant to subsection 5.5(b) of MI-61-101 (as
the Company’s common shares are listed only on the TSXV) and from the minority shareholder
approval requirements of MI 61-101 pursuant to subsection 5.7(1)(a) of MI 61-101 (as neither the
fair market value of the common shares to be issued to insiders nor the consideration to be paid
by insiders pursuant to the Offering is expected to exceed 25% of the Company's market
capitalization as determined in accordance with MI 61-101).

Cautionary Notes to U.S. Investors Concerning Resource Estimates
This news release has been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the securities laws
in effect in Canada, which differ from the requirements of the U.S. securities laws. In particular,
and without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the terms "mineral reserve", "proven mineral
reserve", "probable mineral reserve", "inferred mineral resources," "indicated mineral resources,"
"measured mineral resources" and "mineral resources" used or referenced in this release are
Canadian mineral disclosure terms as defined in accordance with National Instrument 43-101 –
Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects ("NI 43-101") under the guidelines set out in the 2014
Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum Standards for Mineral Resources and
Mineral Reserves, Definitions and Guidelines, May 2014 (the "CIM Standards"). The CIM
Standards differ from the mineral property disclosure requirements of the U.S. Securities and
Exchange Commission (the "SEC") in Regulation S-K Subpart 1300 (the "SEC Modernization
Rules") under the U.S. Securities Act. As a foreign private issuer that is eligible to file reports with
the SEC pursuant to the multijurisdictional discl osure system, the Company is not required to
provide disclosure on its mineral properties under the SEC Modernization Rules and will continue
to provide disclosure under NI 43-101 and the CIM Standards. Accordingly, the Company's
disclosure of mineralization and other technical information may differ significantly from the
information that would be disclosed had the Company prepared the information under the
standards adopted under the SEC Modernization Rules.
