Mergers & Acquisitions

ESHIPPERS MANAGEMENT LTD. ENTERS INTO SHARE PURCHASE AGREEMENT

FOR A REVERSE TAKE-OVER TRANSACTION

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Vancouver, BC – September 24, 2021 – eShippers Management Ltd. (“ eShippers”) (NEX: EPX.H)

wishes to announce it has entered into a definitive share purchase agreement dated effective September 23,

2021 (the “Definitive Agreement”) with ISON Mining Pte Ltd. (“ISON”) and ISON’s shareholders for its

previously announced arm’s length reverse take-over transaction of eShippers (the “RTO”).

About the RTO

Under the Definitive Agreement, eShippers will complete the RTO by acquiring from the ISON

shareholders all of the outstanding shares of ISON, a corporation incorporated under the laws of Singapore,

in exchange for the issuance of an aggregat e of 29,655,750 common shares of eShippers (“ Common

Shares”) to the ISON shareholders at a deemed price of $0.35 per share. Following the completion of the

RTO, ISON will be a wholly-owned subsidiary of eShippers and the business of eShippers (following

completion of the RTO, referred to as the “ Resulting Issuer”) will be the business of ISON, the directors

and management of the Resulting Issuer will be reconstituted as described below, and it is expected that the

Resulting Issuer will be listed on the TSX Venture Exchange (the “Exchange”) as a Tier 2 Mining Issuer.

The RTO is subject to the approval of the Exchange.

As a condition to the completion of the RTO, eShippers will complete a share consolidation on the basis of

1 new Common Share for each 2 old Common Shares (the “ Consolidation”). The Consolidation is

expected to be completed immediately prior to the completion of the acquisition of the ISON Shares. After

completing the Consolidation, eShippers will have 7,031,079 new Common Shares issued and outstanding.

Under the terms of the Definitive Agreement, eShi ppers will undertake a non-brokered private placement

of up to 4,285,714 units of eShippers at a post-Consolidation price of $0.35 per unit for gross proceeds of

up to $1,500,000 (the “Concurrent Financing”). The Concurrent Financing is expected to be completed

concurrently with or immediately prior to the closin g of the RTO. Each unit will consist of one Common

Share and one-half of one warrant. Each whole warra nt will be exercisable to acquire one Common Share

at an exercise price of $0.50 for a period of 24 months from the date of issuance; provided, however, that

if, following the closing date of the RTO, the volume-weighted average trading price of the Common Shares

on the Exchange is equal to or greater than $0.75 for any 10 consecutive trading day period, the Resulting

Issuer may, upon providing written notice to the holders of the warrants, accelerate the expiry date of the

warrants to the date that is 30 days following the date of such notice. eShippers may pay finder’s fees to

eligible parties in connection with the Concurrent Financing, all in accordance with the policies of the

Exchange.

The net proceeds from the Concurrent Financing will be used by the Resulting Issuer: (i) to complete and

evaluate the exploration programs on ISON’s gold projects as recommended in the National Instrument 43-

101 - Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects (“NI 43-101”) technical reports described below, (ii) to

satisfy ISON’s obligations to maintain its interests in its gold projects, and (iii) for working capital purposes.

As a condition to the completion of the acquisition of the ISON Shares, the board of directors of the

Resulting Issuer will be reconstituted to include three nominees appointed by ISON (being Mr. Christopher

Eager, Dr. Marcelo de Carvalho and Mr. Adam Powe ll) and up to two nominees appointed by eShippers

(being Mr. Ricardo Rossin and Ms. Virginia Olnick), s ubject to such director nominees being qualified to

act as directors pursuant to the provisions of appli cable law and acceptable to the Exchange. The newly

reconstituted board of directors will appoint Mr. Eager as the President and CEO, Dr. Carvalho as the Chief

Operating Officer and Chief Geologist, and Mrs. Leah Hodges will remain as the Corporate Secretary of

the Resulting Issuer. The newly reconstituted board of directors will also appoint a new CFO. Information

NI 43-101 Technical Reports

The Novo Mundo gold project is the subject of a NI 43-101 technical report entitled “Independent Technical

Report – The Novo Mundo Gold Project” prepared by GE21 Consultoria Mineral Ltd. (“GE21”) and dated

effective July 28, 2021, as the same may be further amended, restated or replaced. A copy of this technical

report and additional information regarding the Novo Mundo gold project is available under eShippers’

profile on SEDAR at www.sedar.com.

The Novo Mundo gold project is located within the gold mining district of the Alta Floresta Gold Belt,

Mato Grosso (AFGB). This province has a SE-NW el ongate extent of over 500 km, and most of the gold

deposits and known gold occurrences are concentrated along zone in the eastern portion of the belt, where

the Novo Mundo gold project is located.

ISON has only recently acquired the property and th erefore no exploration work has been conducted by

ISON. However, historical information in the form of technical reports and various databases does exist

that describe the drilling, geochemical, geophysical, a nd geological work completed by past exploration

companies. These include several reputable mining comp anies such as RJK, Rio Tinto, Graben and Nexa.

The drilling information contained in the data room ISON acquired from Nexa contains a total of 43

diamond drill holes amounting to 5501.56m. All the drill core from the campaigns completed by RTZ and

GMS, comprising of around 4500m, are available in Nexa’s core shed. The programme completed by GSM

between 2011 and 2013 led to a “Final Exploratio n Report” being filed with the ANM-Brazilian Mining

Agency in May 2015. This report presented a total geological resource in the area ANM 866.035/2009 of

1,691,179 tonnes with an average Au content of 2.99 g/t, amounting to around 160 thousand ounces. It is

important to highlight that this resource was not completed to NI 43-101 standards and is entirely historic

in nature and ISON and eShippers are not treating the historic estimates as current. The Resulting Issuer

will be required to resample, infill drill and remodel the estimates to consider the estimates current.

The characteristics of the main detected Au (Cu, Pb, Zn, Mo) mineralization of the Novo Mundo gold

project fall into two types: Firstly, gold of a disse minated hosted in muscovite/sericite quartz (chlorite)

sulphide alteration zones of the host syeno-granites with rare quartz veining associated with and enveloped

by potassic and propylitic hydrothermal alteration. Secondly, gold mine ralization in vein structures is

similar to epithermal gold narrow quartz vein deposits, controlled mainly by NW-SE fault zones. The type

of disseminated mineralisation is considered similar to the deposit of X1 located 35 km SW in the same

geological context.

Based on the evidence of a close spatial relation of the gold deposits with granitic intrusions, the presence

of hydrothermal alteration halos (mainly phyllic, potassic and propylitic), the dual mineralization styles of

narrow veins and disseminated gold in a sericite (chlorite) -quartz -pyrite alteration zone) and the nature of

fluid inclusions (magmatic and me teoric sources), a porphyry-epitherma l magmatic-hydrothermal system

is interpreted to be responsible for the gold deposits of Novo Mundo.

Despite the only partial success of historical expl oration campaigns, several geological, geochemical and

geophysical anomalies observed in the historic data, ar e in the opinion of GE21, favourable targets that

could lead to a potential expansion of mineralised zon es in the area. The factors that contribute to this

opinion are outlined below:

 Limited geological detail of the already detected mineralization with a very sparse and often

shallow drilling grid.

 The presence of a hydrothermal alteration zone greater than 3km in extent altering the syenogranite.

 The presence of a significant anomalous structure is indicated by the integration of the geochemical,

IP and magnetic anomalies that appear to coincide with the presence of circular geomorphological

structures.

- 5 -

 Indications of continuity of the soil geoche mical anomalies around this possible centre of

mineralization and along tectonic structures identified in the geophysical data.

 Presence of IP anomalies in the historical IP survey s that have not yet been evaluated in detail by

modern exploration work.

 Possible presence of a major and deeper high resis tivity structure indicated by the exploratory IP-

AMT section.

 The presence of tectonic lineamen ts highlighted by the magnetic survey with crosscutting main

structure of NW-SE, E-W and NE, similar to the main gold mineralization structures in the Alta

Floresta Gold Province (AFGP).

Based on these observations and the possibility to im plement a consistent exploration programme with

advanced data integration, systematic geological and geochemical mapping, the use of modern geophysical

surveys and targeted drilling campaigns, GE21 considers that there is potential for expansion of the gold

resources.

GE21 recommends the exploration strategy of the Novo Mundo gold project to be developed in two phases.

The second phase should be contingent on positive results from phase one. Based mainly on data integration

of the historical exploration data including drilling, geochemistry, geology, and geophysics phase one is to

include:

(a) a programme to review, qualify and recover the historical data reflecting the more advanced

geological understanding of this kind of minera lization and the discovery potential for porphyry-

epithermal systems in the AFGP;

(b) conduct a closer-spaced soil geochemistry survey and complete detailed alteration and tectonic

mapping in the main target area;

(c) undertake geophysical surveys over the most potential structures and targets; and

(d) execute a bulk sampling and evaluation programme for tailings and mineralised stockpiles, to

understand the grade distributional and metallurgical characteristics of the mineralised zones. There

are available stockpiles/tailings on some past informal mining sites e.g., Luisão.

Contingent on positive results from phase one, phase two is to include:

(a) an initial diamond drilling campaign of around 5.000m supported and designed based on phase one

results; Implement a consistent QAQC programme, density tests and accurate topography; part of

this drilling programme can be executed in parallel to phase one after item a) where a closer grid

of drilling is recommended;

(b) cover the remaining area with a closer soil geochemistry and mapping grid;

(c) execute an NI 43-101 compliant resource estimati on and complete a PEA (Preliminary Economic

Assessment) also to be submitted to ANM (Brazilian Mining Agency) as a PAE; and

(d) in case of positive results of phase one, as there are already available some near surface mineralised

zones in the historical informally mined pits plus some mineralised stockpiles, there is also an

opportunity to implement a Trial Mining Operation (“Guia de Utilização”) for small scale mining

and testing.

GE21 elaborates on an estimated budget to implement the above recommendations. The budget for phase

one is US$350,000 and the budget for phase two is US$1,375,000.

The Buracão gold project is the subject of a NI 43 -101 technical report entitled “National Instrument 43-

101 Independent Technical Report – The Buracão Gold Project” prepared by GE21 and dated effective July

29, 2021, as the same may be further amended, restated or replaced. A copy of this technical report and

- 6 -

additional information regarding the Buracão gold project is also available under eShippers’ profile on

SEDAR at www.sedar.com.

The Buracão gold project is located within the Proterozoic Brasília Fold Belt (BFB), which stretches from

Araxa in the south to Porto Nacional in the north. This province results from the Brasiliano-Pan African

Orogeny 790 – 610Ma involving the collision between the Amazon and São Francisco cratons and the

Parana Block of central Brazil.

ISON has only recently acquired this property and ther efore no exploration work has been conducted by

ISON. Historical data from technical reports details the drilling, geochemical, geophysical, and geological

work previously completed by Amazonia Mineração and Paringa Resources. The drilling information

according to the data room provided to ISON by the pr evious title owner represents a total of 26 diamond

drill holes with 2,607m. The drill core from the campaigns completed by Amazonia Mineração and Paringa

Resources are available in the present core shed. GE21 reviewed the remaining core of MID-005-13.

The geology of the Buracão Gold Project comprises quartzites and phyllites of the Araí and Paranoá Groups.

In the NE quadrant of the project area, the Araí group consist of two forma tions: the upper phyllite and a

quartzite. The Paranoá Group contains a phyllite-quartzite-carbonate succession that occupies the western

side of the licence area.

The gold mineralization in the Buracão gold project is a Neoproterozoic orogenic gold deposit consisting

of quartz veins with sericite hydrothermal alteration in metasedimentary rocks (phyllites and quartzites) of

the Araí Group. The area has been subjected to a pol yphasic structural evolution and as a result, a major

structural control is associated with auriferous zones. It appears this mineralisation is associated with a

second phase of deformation, characterized by a dextral transpressive ENE-WSW movement, responsible

for forming the NNE shear system.

Several geological, geochemical, and geophysical anomalies are observed in the historic data, that when

combined with the following favourable factors, present an opportunity to extend known mineralisation

zones. The favourable factors include:

 Observation of visible gold in fresh veins exposed in the Trincheirão workings in a structure that

had only just been targeted by the garimpo. This structure appears to be an antithetic vein structure

if the Riedel model is applied to the main trend of historic workings.

 The lack of mineralized intersections in drill hol es that were designed to drill directly below the

garimpo workings indicates the structural control had not been fully understood. This, if considered

with the point above, presents a good opportunity for ISON to re-evaluate the historical positioning

of drill holes.

 The lack of significant soil anomalies but the hi gh effectiveness of rock samples indicate soil

geochemistry is not well suited to the Buracão re gion. The high frequency of outcrop within the

project area invites a systematic and extensive outcrop sampling approach to regional exploration

that may identify new target zones to follow up.

 The presence of an anomalous structure indicated by the IP anomalies was only partially followed

up in previous ventures.

 There has been intermittent artisanal mining activity since the 18th century that continues today. As

such this indicates the area conti nues to deliver gold even in structures that have a long history of

small-scale operations.

 Artisanal workings and the continuity of features related to mineralization such as structures, veins

and alterations zones are observed along a 2km NNE trend. The northern extension of this trend is

within Isons licences and has yet to be explored in detail.

GE21 recommends the following explor ation programme for the Buracão gold project to be completed in

two phases with phase two contingent on positive outcomes of phase one.

Phase one to include:

(a) Perform detailed lithological and structural ma pping aiming to understand better controls on gold

mineralisation. Included in this is detailed alteration mapping. U se the results of the mapping to

generate a detailed litho-structural-alteration model.

(b) Characterise the vein type and vein paragenesis aiming to generate a vein type model.

(c) Undertake systematic sampling of the vein t ypes and alteration zones to understand the gold

distribution. Use this understanding to support the planning of more advanced exploration methods.

(d) Perform an integrated geophysical survey by IP, radiometric and ground magnetics to improve

geological interpretations and test lithological and structural targets.

(e) Perform systematic 4 to 5m deep trenching across the potential areas followed by geological

mapping. Undertake a systematic bulk sampling of surface material and intersected vein and

alteration zones.

Phase two to include (if phase one results are positive):

(a) After defining and understanding better the potential subareas perform a diamond drilling campaign

following a consistent QAQC program, density tests and accurate topography.

(b) Perform a sampling survey on the tailings located across the project area. Aim to quantify their

gold distribution and what mineral processing routes are required for treating the tails.

(c) Based on the results on phase 2b, evaluate the implementation of a bulk sampling and processing

plant to treat tailing.

GE21 elaborates on an estimated budget to implement the above recommendations taking in consideration

a 12-month budget. The budget for phase one is US$350,000 and the budget for phase two is US$700,000.
