April 13, 2021
/CNW/ -
Metallis Resources Inc.
(TSXV: MTS) (OTCQB: MTLFF) (FSE: 0CVM)
(the
"Company" or "Metallis") is pleased announce the appointment of
Charlie Greig
and Dr.
Michelle Campbell
to the Company's
Technical Advisory Board, effective immediately. Both have joined the team with a singular objective of providing technical and
strategic guidance on the development of the 2021 drill program (the "Program") at the Kirkham Property. The clear deliverable of
the Program will be to target the deeper higher-grade copper-gold mineralized zones of the 7.5 km-long Hawilson Monzonite
porphyry complex lying within the Property.
Metallis' President and CEO
Fiore Aliperti
stated, "We believe that the strength of Metallis and its value proposition for our
investors, begins and ends with our technical team. These two highly qualified additions to our Advisory Board bring a wealth of
knowledge to the table, which includes their recent experience working on major resource projects in the immediate area. Whether
it is Michelle's analytical research work at Seabridge Gold's KSM, the world's largest undeveloped gold project, or Mr. Greig's
latest success story at GT Gold's Saddle North, culminating its rapid development from discovery to sale to Newmont in just four
short years. Both project stories are nothing short of incredible." He went on to add, "This is a statement of intention from the
Metallis team that we are serious about developing Kirkham into the next success story in the Golden Triangle. We are extremely
excited and grateful to have them on board. Their agreement to join Metallis should be taken for what it is, a confidence marker
that we are sitting on a project with great potential to be the next world class discovery in the Golden Triangle."
