OMG NEWS RELEASE 1

Omai Gold Mines Completes C$4.9 million

Oversubscribed Non-Brokered Private Placement

NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION IN THE UNITED STATES OR TO U.S. NEWSWIRE SERVICES

December 17, 2021 Toronto, Ontario — Omai Gold Mine s Corp. (TSXV: OMG) (“ Omai ” or the

“Company ”) has completed its previously announced non-broke red private placement for gross

proceeds of $4,882,566 through the issuance of 44,3 86,972 units (a “ Unit ”) at a price of C$0.11

per Unit (the “Offering ”). The Offering was oversubscribed.

Each Unit consists of one common share (a “Common Share ”) and one-half of a Common Share

purchase warrant. Two such half warrants constitute a full warrant (“ Warrant ”). Each Warrant

entitles the holder to acquire one Common Share at an exercise price of C$0.20 per Common

Share until December 17, 2023.

In connection with the Offering, the Company paid c ash finders’ fees of $173,644.02 and issued

1,578,581 finder’s warrants, each of which entitles the holder to purchase one Common Share at

a price of C$0.11 until December 17, 2023. The net proceeds of the Offering will be used to fund

exploration on the Company’s Omai gold project in G uyana and for general working capital

purposes.

All securities issued pursuant to the Offering will be subject to a statutory hold period expiring four

months and one day after closing of the Offering. None of the securities issued in the Offering will

be registered under the United States Securities Ac t of 1933, as amended (the “ 1933 Act ”), and

none of them may be offered or sold in the United S tates absent registration or an applicable

exemption from the registration requirements of the 1933 Act. This press release shall not

constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy nor shall there be any sale of the

securities in any state where such offer, solicitation, or sale would be unlawful.

The Offering constituted a “related party transaction” as defined under Multilateral Instrument 61-

101 - Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions (“ MI 61-101 ”) as certain

insiders of the Company subscribed for an aggregate of 2,904,544 Units pursuant to the Offering.

The Company is relying on the exemptions from the valuation and minority shareholder approval

requirements of MI 61-101 contained in sections 5.5 (a) and 5.7(1)(a) of MI 61-101, as the fair

market value of the participation in the Offering b y insiders does not exceed 25% of the market

capitalization of the Company, as determined in accordance with MI 61-101. The Company did not

file a material change report in respect of the related party transaction at least 21 days before the

closing of the Offering, which the Company deems re asonable in the circumstances so as to be

able to avail itself of the proceeds of the Offering in an expeditious manner.
