Cautionary Note to United States Investors Concerning Estimates of Measured, Indicated and Inferred Resources

This press release has been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the securities laws in effect in Canada, which differ from the requirements of U.S. securities laws. Unless otherwise indicated, all resource and reserve estimates included in this press release have been disclosed in accordance with NI 43-101 and the Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy, and Petroleum Definition Standards on Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves. NI 43-101 is a rule developed by the Canadian Securities Administrators which establishes standards for all public disclosure an issuer makes of scientific and technical information concerning mineral projects. Canadian disclosure standards, including NI 43-101, differ significantly from the requirements of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), and resource and reserve information contained in this press release may not be comparable to similar information disclosed by U.S. companies. In particular, and without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the term “resource” does not equate to the term “reserves”. Under U.S. standards, mineralization may not be classified as a “reserve” unless the determination has been made that the mineralization could be economically and legally produced or extracted at the time the reserve determination is made. The SEC’s disclosure standards normally do not permit the inclusion of information concerning “measured mineral resources”, “indicated mineral resources” or “inferred mineral resources” or other descriptions of the amount of mineralization in mineral deposits that do not constitute “reserves” by U.S. standards in documents filed with the SEC. Investors are cautioned not to assume that any part or all of mineral deposits in these categories will ever be converted into reserves. U.S. investors should also understand that “inferred mineral resources” have a great amount of uncertainty as to their existence and great uncertainty as to their economic and legal feasibility. It cannot be assumed that all or any part of an “inferred mineral resource” will ever be upgraded to a higher category. Investors are cautioned not to assume that all or any part of an “inferred mineral resource” exists or is economically or legally mineable. Disclosure of “contained ounces” in a resource is permitted disclosure under Canadian regulations; however, the SEC normally only permits issuers to report mineralization that does not constitute “reserves” by SEC standards as in-place tonnage and grade without reference to unit measures. The requirements of NI 43-101 for disclosure of “reserves” are also not the same as those of the SEC, and reserves disclosed by the Company in accordance with NI 43-101 may not qualify as “reserves” under SEC standards. Accordingly, information concerning mineral deposits contained in our website may not be comparable with information made public by companies that report in accordance with U.S. standards.

Allegiant Gold (AUXXF)(AUAU:CA)
Moving Forward at Eastside

Allegiant Gold is a mid-stage exploration stage company with 10 highly prospective projects in the southwest United States, including 7 projects in the State of Nevada. Allegiant’s flagship project is Eastside, a district-scale project in Nevada with inferred resources of 1.4 million gold and 8.8 million silver ounces of inferred resources and significant potential to add size and scale. The company’s shares trade on the TSX Venture Exchange under the ticker symbol “AUAU” and on the OTCQX under the ticker symbol “AUXXF.”

Drilling expected to commence shortly. Reverse circulation (RC) drilling is expected to commence within two to three weeks and focus on the east pediment zone and the western high-grade anomaly and entail 30 holes to about 200 meters depth using one rig. Core drilling that is planned to define high-grade areas discovered during the most recent drill program could be delayed until May due to an eagle’s nest near the area of planned drilling. Allegiant has filed for an eagle take permit that would allow for the relocation of the eagles and nest that is near the high-grade zone. Otherwise, drilling would have to follow the eagle nesting cycle.


More to Eastside than gold? While Eastside is a gold exploration project, Nevada is well-known for hosting lithium in its hydrographic basins.  Given that the Eastside property is prospective for lithium, particularly the Castle zone, management intends to fund studies to assess its potential. Were this to develop, opportunities could exist to eventually sell or spin-off lithium-rich areas of the …

FenixOro Provides Letter to Investors Outlining Plans for 2022

Research, News, and Market Data on FenixOro Gold

 

TORONTO, Jan. 06, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — FenixOro Gold Corp. (CSE: FENX; OTCQB: FDVXF; Frankfurt: 8FD) is pleased to provide an update to shareholders and investors as the Company kicks off its plans for 2022.

As we set out on a new year we wanted to share with you our objectives for what we believe will be an exciting time as we accelerate the exploration program at the Abriaqui gold project.

Our plans for 2022 are being driven by the tremendous success we had last year. The achievements were many. To provide some context for the upcoming program, here are some of the key developments we announced last year (www.fenixoro.com/news-events/press-releases/)

2021 Highlights

• The significant discovery of a new zone with multiple high grade intercepts including 124 g/t gold (February 24/21)
• Extending strike length of 1400m on the main Santa Teresa vein (March 15/21)
• Completion of Phase 1 drilling and the establishment of a preliminary minimum target resource model of 1.6 – 2.4 million oz (March 19/21)
• Demonstrating the significant vertical continuity of high grade mineralization, a minimum of 1200 meters (March 19/21)
• The commencement of Phase 2 drilling (April 26/21)
• Significant soil anomalies generated large target areas in the undrilled Southern block (May 10/21)
• True-width channel sample intercept of 11.4m of 6.08 g/t gold on the main Santa Teresa vein system (August 5/21)
• Noble Capital Markets initiated research coverage (September 13/21)
• Intercepted 23.2 g/t gold in the newly discovered Cascada vein (September 28/21)
• Closing on a first tranche private placement financing of $2.4 million (December 8/21)
• Cormark Securities issued a report following a site visit by Mining Analyst Brock Colterjohn (December 9/21)

One of the main challenges we faced in 2021 was the turnaround time it took to receive assay results from the lab – at times this ran ten to twelve weeks due to global supply issues. We have addressed this and are now using a new lab that is providing results on a fourteen day turnaround. This should provide us with a much more consistent data and news flow. We are currently in the midst of a major data compilation exercise that we expect will generate new interpretations as well as high-interest target areas.

Looking Forward
With the foundation of the success we experienced in 2021 we are extremely optimistic on the outlook for 2022. It is still very early in the exploration cycle of the project and yet we are already demonstrating that Abriaqui has the potential to be a significant and very special asset.

The three key objectives of this year’s program are focused on the growth of the deposit:

• To grow the existing resource model by increasing the length, depth and scale of the four currently modelled structures
• To grow the existing resource model by increasing the number of formally modelled veins to at least ten
• To demonstrate that the project has potential for significant new discoveries, particularly in the as yet undrilled Southern block.

With these objectives in mind we hope you will join us on this journey and follow along with our progress. We will have many developments to report on in the coming days and weeks. We are very grateful for your continued trust and support and we wish you good health and much personal success in 2022.

About FenixOro Gold Corp.
FenixOro Gold Corp is a Canadian company focused on acquiring and exploring gold projects with world class exploration potential in the most prolific gold producing regions of Colombia. FenixOro’s flagship property, the Abriaqui project, is the closest project to Continental Gold’s Buritica project. It is located 15 km to the west in Antioquia State at the northern end of the Mid-Cauca gold belt, a geological trend which has seen multiple large gold discoveries in the past 10 years including Buritica and Anglo Gold’s Nuevo Chaquiro and La Colosa. As documented in “NI 43-101 Technical Report on the Abriaqui project Antioquia State, Colombia” (December 5, 2019), the geological characteristics of Abriaqui and Buritica are similar. Since the preparation of this report a Phase 1 drilling program has been completed at Abriaqui resulting in a significant discovery of a high grade, “Buritica style” gold deposit. A Phase 2 drilling program has recently commenced.

FenixOro’s VP of Exploration, Stuart Moller, led the discovery team at Buritica for Continental Gold in 2007-2011. At the time of its latest public report, the Buritica Mine contains measured plus indicated resources of 5.32 million ounces of gold (16.02 Mt grading 10.32 g/t) plus a 6.02 million ounce inferred resource (21.87 Mt grading 8.56 g/t) for a total of 11.34 million ounces of gold resources Buritica began formal production in November 2020 and has expected annual average production of 250,000 ounces at an all-in sustaining cost of approximately US$600 per ounce. Resources, cost and production data are taken from Continental Gold’s “NI 43-101 Buritica Mineral Resource 2019-01, Antioquia, Colombia, 18 March, 2019”). Continental Gold was recently the subject of a takeover by Zijin Mining in an all-cash transaction valued at C$1.4 billion.

Comstock Mining (LODE)
Off to a Solid Start in 2022

Comstock Mining Inc. is an emerging innovator and leader in the sustainable extraction, valorization, and production of scarce natural resources, with a focus on high value strategic materials that are essential to meeting the rapidly increasing global demand for clean energy, carbon-neutrality, and natural products.

Mark Reichman, Senior Research Analyst of Natural Resources, Noble Capital Markets, Inc.

Refer to the full report for the price target, fundamental analysis, and rating.

Majority ownership of LiNiCo. Comstock Mining acquired an additional 3,129,081 common shares in LiNiCo Corporation from its founder and former CEO in exchange for 3,500,000 restricted Comstock common shares. Additionally, Comstock acquired an additional 4,075 preferred shares increasing its ownership to 90% from 45%. The remaining 10% of LiNiCo is owned by Aqua Metals Inc. We expect LiNiCo financial results to be consolidated into Comstock’s year-end financial statements.


Potential corporate rebranding.  Prior to the end of the first quarter, we think Comstock Mining may re-brand to better align with its emerging core businesses, Battery Metal Recycling and Cellulosic Fuels, and to reflect its transformation into a renewable energy company seeking to promote decarbonization within the transportation sector. Moreover, we think management may provide more detailed …

Chakana Copper Corp (CHKKF)(PERU:CA)
Outstanding Huancarama Drill Results; Initial Resource Estimate Expected Shortly

Noble Capital Markets research on Chakana Copper Corp is published under ticker symbols CHKKF and PERU:CA. The price target is in USD and based on ticker symbol CHKKF. Chakana Copper Corp is a Canadian-based minerals exploration company that is currently advancing the high-grade gold-copper-silver Soledad Project located in the Ancash region of Peru, a highly favorable mining jurisdiction with supportive communities. The Soledad Project consists of high-grade gold-copper-silver mineralization hosted in tourmaline breccia pipes. A total of 33,353 metres of drilling has been completed to-date, testing nine (9) of twenty-three (23) confirmed breccia pipes with more than 92 total targets. Chakana’s investors are uniquely positioned as the Soledad Project provides exposure to several metals including copper, gold, and silver.

Mark Reichman, Senior Research Analyst of Natural Resources, Noble Capital Markets, Inc.

Refer to the full report for the price target, fundamental analysis, and rating.

Huancarama drilling results. Chakana Copper released results from 13 additional resource definition and exploration holes, representing 3,265 meters of drilling, at Huancarama which is one of several breccia pipes that will be included in Chakana’s initial resource estimate. In addition to significant copper, gold, and silver grades intercepted in all resource definition drill holes, three intersected molybdenum at depths of around 350 meters below surface. Results included several high-grade intervals of greater than 50 meters, including Hole SDH21-271 which intercepted 3.46% copper, 118.8 grams of silver per tonne, and 0.63 grams of gold per tonne over 50.7 meters, or 4.89% copper equivalent.


Initial resource estimate.  Chakana expects to release an initial mineral resource estimate shortly which will include breccias Bx 1, Bx 5, Bx 6, Paloma East, Paloma West, Huancarama, and possibly Bx 7, down to a depth of 300 meters. We think achieving this milestone could be a significant catalyst for the stock and help investors gauge the mineral resource potential of the broader Soledad project …

Garibaldi Appoints New Director

Research, News, and Market Data on Garibaldi Resources

 

Vancouver, British Columbia, January 5, 2022 – Garibaldi Resources (TSXV: GGI) (the “Company” or “Garibaldi”) is pleased to announce the appointment of Michael Robert (Rob) Myhill to Garibaldi’s Board of Directors. Mr. Myhill is currently a Director and V.P. Finance of Eskay Mining Corp. (“Eskay Mining”). Eskay Mining’s neighboring claims border Garibaldi’s highly prospective Eskay Claim Group in Northwest British Columbia. Eskay Mining acquired a 19.5% investment interest in Garibaldi on February 5, 2021 (see Eskay news release March 8, 2021) after developing an important new structural interpretation of the Eskay regional model, followed by precious metal VMS discoveries at their TV and Jeff VMS targets.

Mr. Myhill holds an HBA and an MBA from the Ivey School of Business Administration at the University of Western Ontario and earned a CA designation while with Price Waterhouse in Toronto. For 20 years, Mr. Myhill was the President and CEO of Canadian Investors Corp. (C.I.C.). Prior to C.I.C he was the President of a national company within the Jim Pattison Industries Group.

Steve Regoci, Garibaldi President and CEO, commented “Garibaldi Resources Corp. and Eskay Mining Corp. successfully co-operated on logistics for Eskay’s SkyTEM survey in 2021.  Savings from collaborative cost sharing initiatives are an advantage to both exploration programs and expanding mutually beneficial efforts will impact productivity with more efficient results. Garibaldi welcomes Robert Myhill onboard and looks forward to working with him on improving overall synergy within the prolific Eskay District.”

Mr. Myhill commented, “I appreciate the opportunity to represent Eskay Mining’s investment in Garibaldi.  I am confident we can make an important contribution to Garibaldi, leading to greater shareholder value.”

Comstock Acquires Majority Ownership of LiNiCo

Research, News, and Market Data on Comstock Mining

 

Pioneering Technologies for Production of Lithium Carbonate, Graphite, and Other Electrification Products

 

VIRGINIA CITY, Nev., Jan. 05, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Comstock Mining Inc. (NYSE: LODE) (“Comstock” and the “Company”) today announced its acquisition of an additional 3,129,081 common shares in LINICO Corporation (“LiNiCo”) from LiNiCo’s founder, Michael Vogel, in exchange for 3,500,000 restricted Comstock common shares, and acquired an additional 4,075 Series A Preferred shares, thereby increasing Comstock’s overall ownership to approximately 90% from approximately 45% of LiNiCo.

LiNiCo is an emerging leader in the production of electrification products, including lithium carbonate and graphite from recycled lithium-ion batteries (“LIB”) with its proprietary extraction technologies. LiNiCo’s first state-of-the-art production facility is currently being retrofitted and scheduled to commence initial production with a feedstock crushing capacity of over 35,000 tons per year during the second half 2022, with the ultimate facility capacity designed and permitted for over 100,000 tons per year.  

“Increasing our investment in LiNiCo was a natural extension of our plan to build high-cash generating processes that tap into massive markets and decarbonize the supply chains of increasingly scarce natural resources,” said Corrado De Gasperis, Comstock’s Executive Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “We believe that LiNiCo’s pioneering extraction technologies will quickly prove to be the best, most sustainable, and most valuable process for the production of lithium and other electrification products from both recycled batteries and virgin natural resources. Increasing our stake to approximately 90% will allow us to fully consolidate and control LiNiCo’s business plans, revenue and earnings, while enabling our shareholders to participate in the expected significant positive impact of LiNiCo’s business and related proprietary technologies on Comstock’s valuation.”

According to International Energy Agency (“IEA”), there were more than 10 million electric vehicles (“EVs”) on the road at the end of 2020, with new EV registrations increasing by 41% over 2019 and another 140% during the first quarter of 2021 as compared to the same period in 2020. Meeting the increased EV demand is estimated to require about five times more lithium carbonate equivalent (“LCE”) than the entire lithium mining industry produces today. Miners and manufacturers can scale up to meet that demand, however, according to a January 2021 USGS mineral commodity summary, there are only about 86 million tons of identified lithium reserves worldwide, and EV batteries are typically landfilled after eight to ten years of use. A report published in 2021 by Lux Research estimated that more than 140 gigawatt-hours of LIBs will reach end of life by 2035, an eightfold increase over the end-of-life estimates for 2020, making quality LIB recycling vital to global electrification initiatives.

The remaining 10% of LiNiCo is owned by Aqua Metals Inc. (NASDAQ: AQMS), a cleantech innovator focused on environmentally closed-loop battery recycling. Comstock and Aqua Metals announced the execution of a collaboration agreement to accelerate decarbonization by producing renewable electrification products that support the increasingly high demand for EVs. LiNiCo would use this technology to process secondary metal concentrates into high-purity nickel, cobalt, and other metals.

“LiNiCo’s partnerships and propriety technologies differentiate us from our peers by enabling the up-front extraction of lithium and the direct refining of nickel, cobalt, and other metals. We are looking forward to incorporating these new processes into our facility and offering best-in-class, sustainable electrification products at a fraction of the costs,” concluded Mr. De Gasperis.

(NYSE: LODE) (the “Company”) is an emerging innovator and leader in the sustainable extraction, valorization, and production of scarce natural resources, with a focus on high value strategic materials that are essential to meeting the rapidly increasing global demand for clean renewable energy, carbon-neutrality, and natural products.

Chakana Copper Corp (CHKKF)(PERU:CA)
Outstanding Huancarama Drill Results; Initial Resource Estimate Expected Shortly

Noble Capital Markets research on Chakana Copper Corp is published under ticker symbols CHKKF and PERU:CA. The price target is in USD and based on ticker symbol CHKKF. Chakana Copper Corp is a Canadian-based minerals exploration company that is currently advancing the high-grade gold-copper-silver Soledad Project located in the Ancash region of Peru, a highly favorable mining jurisdiction with supportive communities. The Soledad Project consists of high-grade gold-copper-silver mineralization hosted in tourmaline breccia pipes. A total of 33,353 metres of drilling has been completed to-date, testing nine (9) of twenty-three (23) confirmed breccia pipes with more than 92 total targets. Chakana’s investors are uniquely positioned as the Soledad Project provides exposure to several metals including copper, gold, and silver.

Mark Reichman, Senior Research Analyst of Natural Resources, Noble Capital Markets, Inc.

Refer to the full report for the price target, fundamental analysis, and rating.

Huancarama drilling results. Chakana Copper released results from 13 additional resource definition and exploration holes, representing 3,265 meters of drilling, at Huancarama which is one of several breccia pipes that will be included in Chakana’s initial resource estimate. In addition to significant copper, gold, and silver grades intercepted in all resource definition drill holes, three intersected molybdenum at depths of around 350 meters below surface. Results included several high-grade intervals of greater than 50 meters, including Hole SDH21-271 which intercepted 3.46% copper, 118.8 grams of silver per tonne, and 0.63 grams of gold per tonne over 50.7 meters, or 4.89% copper equivalent.


Initial resource estimate.  Chakana expects to release an initial mineral resource estimate shortly which will include breccias Bx 1, Bx 5, Bx 6, Paloma East, Paloma West, Huancarama, and possibly Bx 7, down to a depth of 300 meters. We think achieving this milestone could be a significant catalyst for the stock and help investors gauge the mineral resource potential of the broader Soledad project …
