PRESS RELEASE
PUMA PROVIDES UPDATE ON MURRAY BROOK
Rimouski, February 26th, 2020 – Puma Exploration Inc. (the “Company” or “Puma ”) has terminated
the amended and restated asset purchase agreement signed on Oct. 5, 2016, as amended thereafter, with
Votorantim Metals Canada (the “Purchase Agreement”). Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, Puma was
granted the right to earn up to 67.86% interest in the Murray Brook Deposit held by Votorantim Metals
Canada.
Due to unfavourable eq uity market conditions and the current zinc price, sitting at its 3-year low, Puma
has been unsuccessful in completing the financing required to complete the transaction, and its efforts to
attract a partner to the project have also been unsuccessful.
Puma remains confident in the merit of the Murray Brook Deposit , as demonstrated by maintaining the
purchase agreement in good standing with El Nino Ventures Inc. until June 30th, 2020 to secure a 32.14%
minority interest in the Deposit (see news 23/12/2019). This will lead to the creation of a JV partnership
between Puma Exploration (32.14%) and Votorantim Metals Canada (67.86%) for the exploration and the
development of the Murray Brook Project until June 30th, 2020 and beyond if Puma elects to finalize the
purchase agreement with El Nino Ventures.
The main exploration efforts of the Company for 2020 will be directed towards the Chester Copper Deposit
(see news 18/02/2020), where it plans to drill 5 -10 high potential targets and on the 100% held Portage
Lake, Jonpol Gold (adjacent to Gold Terra Resources; TXR-V), Legacy (adjacent to X-Terra Resources;
XTT-V) and Murray Brook West. More news will come shortly on Puma’s properties. The main objectives
of the 2020 drill programs are to generate further new major discoveries in the New Brunswick Bathurst
Mining Camp (BMC). Puma has been exploring in the BMC for over 15 years, and has acquired numerous
highly prospective drill ready properties, many focused on copper and gold.
