All securities issued pursuant to the Offering are subject to a statutory hold period of four months and one day in accordance with applicable securities legislation and the policies of the Exchange. Completion of the Offering remains subject to final acceptance of the Exchange.

The Company intends to use the proceeds from the Offering to update the Mineral Resource Estimate on the Jojay Project, review technical information on the historic Jasper Mine and the Munro Lake Project to support permitting and planning of 2026 exploration programs, and for general working capital purposes.
