(

)
(
OTCQB: PREIF
) (the "
Company
" or "
Precipitate
") is pleased to announce, further to the
Company's news release dated August 17, 2021, Precipitate has received TSX Venture Exchange (the
Exchange") approval to close the previously announced property acquisitions and option agreements
(the "Agreements") granting the Company rights to acquire a 100% interest in certain mineral
exploration licenses totaling 12,350 hectares making up the
Motherlode Gold Project
(the "Motherlode
Project" or the "Project") located within the Burin Peninsula of southern Newfoundland, Canada.
The effective date of the Agreements, being the date of receipt of Exchange approval, will be August 23,
2021. As per the terms of the Agreements, Precipitate has issued a total of $27,000 and 395,000

applicable securities laws, including National Instrument 45-102 of the Canadian Securities
Administrators, and the rules and policies of the Exchange.
The Motherlode Project:
The Motherlode Project is comprised of 12,350 hectares on Newfoundland's south coast. Access and
logistical infrastructure are excellent, with year-round road access, high-power electrical lines running
through the project, nearby Atlantic Ocean ports, and an active nearby industrial fluorite mine. The project
represents district-scale potential within an estimated 16.5-kilometre-long exploration trend hosting 11
historical mineral occurrences, including 8 gold showings. Historical high-grade results* include:
Gold rock grab samples:
25.0 g/t Au, 15.7 g/t Au, 11.6 g/t Au, 6.3 g/t Au & 4.5 g/t Au
;
Trench/Channel Results: 0.5m of 4.5 g/t Au,
1.5m of 10.1 g/t Au, 6.2m of 3.6 g/t Au (incl. 0.9m of
7.7 g/t Au)
; and
2007 Diamond Drill Results (8 holes, 902m):
0.7m of 3.2 g/t Au, 10.4m of 0.82 g/t Au, 1.5m of
2.8 g/t Au
For reference: g/t = grams per tonne, Au = gold, m = metres
The Company's technical staff are currently conducting a detailed compilation and review of historical
property data and have applied for permits to conduct a property-wide heliborne high sensitivity
magnetics-radiometrics geophysical survey, planned for late September. The purpose of the magnetics-
radiometrics geophysical survey is to identify and prioritize anomalous magnetic features within the
property. Following receipt of the heliborne geophysical data, initial groundwork including prospecting,
mapping and sampling will be conducted over selected geophysical and geochemical anomalies.
Option Terms for the Motherlode Project:
The Company entered into two underlying property option agreements granting Precipitate the exclusive
right to earn a 100% interest in a combined 6,100 hectares of mineral exploration licences (the
"Properties") by fulfilling certain elective annual cash and share payments over a 4-year option term, as
