24.09.2021  |  CNW

JEMI PROJECT IS PERMITTED

VANCOUVER, Sept. 24, 2021 - Monumental Gold Corp. ("Monumental" or the "Company") (TSX-V: MGLD) is pleased to announce that it has entered into an arm's length assignment and assumption agreement (the "Assignment Agreement") with Discovery Silver Corp. (TSX-V: DSV) ("Discovery") dated September 22, 2021, whereby Discovery has agreed to transfer and assign its rights and obligations under the Jemi Option Agreement (as defined below) to Monumental (the "Assignment"). Discovery, through its wholly-owned Mexican subsidiary Discovery Metals S.A. de C.V. (the "Discovery Subsidiary"), entered into a mineral exploration and option to purchase agreement with Jesus Miguel Hernandez Garza and Juan Reynaldo Elizondo Falcon (the "Vendors") dated May 15, 2017, as amended June 30, 2021 (the "Jemi Option Agreement"), whereby Discovery Subsidiary has an option to acquire a 100% interest in six (6) mineral concessions comprising approximately 3,560 hectares located in the Ocampo municipality of Coahuila State, Mexico (the "Property") from the Vendors.

Highlights of the Proposed Acquisition

Pursuant to the Assignment Agreement, in consideration for the assignment and assumption of the Jemi Option Agreement, Monumental must, within three (3) business days of the date on which the Company receives the final approval of the Assignment Agreement by the TSX Venture Exchange (the "Exchange") (the "Exchange Acceptance Date"), issue to Discovery that number of common shares of Monumental that would result in Discovery holding, on a non-diluted basis, 9.9% of the issued and outstanding common shares of Monumental (the "Payment Shares"). Subject to the exercise of the option to acquire the Property pursuant to the Jemi Option Agreement, Discovery would retain a 1.5% net smelter returns royalty payable upon the commercial production of the Property in accordance with the terms set out in the Assignment Agreement and pursuant to a royalty agreement. In addition to the statutory hold period of four months and a day from the date of issuance, the Payment Shares will be subject to a 12-month voluntary hold period from the date of issuance.

Pursuant to the Jemi Option Agreement, Discovery has the option to acquire 100% of the Property from the Vendors by completing US$2,000,000 of exploration expenditures on the Property by May 16, 2024 (the "Expenditures") and paying to the Vendors US$500,000 in cash or common shares upon the exercise of the option. The Vendors have agreed to the assignment and assumption of the Jemi Option Agreement by Discover and the Discovery Subsidiary to Monumental and its Mexican subsidiary pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Assignment Agreement.

The Assignment Agreement is subject to the prior acceptance of the Exchange, as the Assignment, if completed, will constitute a "Fundamental Acquisition" for the Company pursuant to Exchange Policy 5.3 - Acquisitions and Dispositions of Non-Cash Assets. The acceptance of the Exchange will require, among other things, the completion and filing of a technical report on the Property prepared in accordance with National Instrument 43-101­­ - Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects (the "Technical Report"). Monumental has engaged the services of Craig Gibson, Ph.D., CPG, Technical Director, ProDeMin of Guadalajara, Jalisco, Mexico, to prepare the NI 43-101 technical report. Trading in the common shares of the Company has been halted in accordance with the policies of the Exchange and will remain halted until such time as all required documentation has been filed with and accepted by the Exchange and permission to resume trading has been obtained from the Exchange.

In connection with the Assignment Agreement, Monumental has entered into a finder's fee agreement (the "Finder's Agreement") with Axemen Resource Capital Ltd. ("Axemen"), an arm's length party, in consideration for services in transaction advisory services and introducing the Company to Discovery, pursuant to which Axemen shall receive consideration of 300,000 common shares of Monumental (the "Finder's Shares") if the Assignment Agreement is approved by the Exchange. The Finder's Agreement and the issuance of the Finder's Shares are subject to Exchange approval and will be subject to a four month hold period.

The Property

The Property is located in the Ocampo municipality, a relatively remote region of western Coahuila state about 220 km northwest of Monclova and lies in the Sierra Madre Oriental physiographic province. The Property lies in the southern half of an isolated range or sierra known as Sierra la Vasca. The topography of the Sierra la Vasca is abrupt and rises to about 1750 meters elevation with the surrounding valleys at under 1100m, but the Property is located around the southern and western portions of the range ranging from about 1100 m to 1350 m. Work completed at the Property has been successful in demonstrating potential for encountering Rare Earth Elements mineralization by exploration at the Property. Systematic geological mapping and sampling are needed to evaluate the potential for encountering an economic deposit and for definition of targets for drilling. Drill permits have been obtained for the Property.

Further information about the Property and its proposed exploration and development will be disclosed in the Technical Report.

Name Change & Symbol Change

In connection with the approval by the Exchange of the Assignment Agreement, the Company intends to change its name to "Monumental Minerals Corp.". In conjunction with the proposed name change, the Company's share capital would be issued under new CUSIP/ISIN numbers and the trading symbol is expected to change to "MNRL". The proposed name change and symbol change are subject to the acceptance of the Exchange.

While such estimates and assumptions are considered reasonable by the management of the Company, they are inherently subject to significant business, economic, competitive and regulatory uncertainties and risks.

Investors are cautioned that forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance or events and, accordingly are cautioned not to put undue reliance on forward-looking statements due to the inherent uncertainty of such statements.
