Element79 Gold Corp Announces Update to Binding Option Agreement for Maverick Springs Silver Project

Element79 Gold Corp.

VANCOUVER, BC / THENEWSWIRE / March 18, 2024 – Element79 Gold Corp. (CSE: ELEM) (OTC: ELMGF) (FSE: 7YS0) ("Element79", the "Company along with its subsidiaries ELEM US Holdings Inc and ELEM Maverick Springs, LLC (collectively referred to as "Element79"), announces an amendment to its Binding Option Agreement for the Maverick Springs Project. This amendment follows a productive negotiation with Green Power Minerals Pty Ltd, (soon to be known as Sun Silver Limited ("Green Power")). The original agreement (the "Agreement") dated August 28, 2023, and announced August 31 and October 23, 2023, has been updated to reflect the evolving interests and continued collaboration between the parties (“Variation”).

This Variation comes after the Agreement was amended by mutual agreement reached through a letter deed dated January 12, 2024 (the "First Variation") (refer to the press release dated January 17, 2024).  

The following amendments have been made pursuant to the Variation:

  1. Amendment of Share Allocation: The share component of the consideration has been adjusted from "CAD$1,500,000 worth of fully paid ordinary shares" to "3,500,000 fully paid ordinary shares." 

  2. Increase in Cash Consideration: The cash consideration has been increased from "CAD$4,000,000" to "CAD$4,400,000". 

Except for amendments made under the Variation, all terms and conditions of the Agreement (as amended by the First Variation) previously stated remain in full force and effect, including the option period, remaining in effect until the earlier of July 10, 2024, or completion of the acquisition. Both parties have acknowledged that this letter deed will prevail in case of any inconsistency with the terms of the original Agreement, ensuring a seamless adjustment to the updated terms.

"These amendments not only strengthen the strategic partnership between Element79 and Green Power but also continue to align with our long-term vision for the Maverick Springs Project," said James Tworek, CEO of Element79. "The adjustments in the consideration underscore our dedication to balancing shareholder value creation with strategic partnerships, ensuring a robust foundation for sustainable growth of Element79 operations, and facilitate the continued development of our key projects while reinforcing our position in the mining sector."

The Agreement, as amended, remains governed by the laws of the State of Nevada, USA, with both parties submitting to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Nevada District Court in Reno.

Actual results may vary from forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause actual results to materially differ from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements, including but not limited to: the duration and effects of the coronavirus and COVID-19; risks related to the integration of acquisitions; actual results of exploration activities; conclusions of economic evaluations; changes in project parameters as plans continue to be refined; commodity prices; variations in ore reserves, grade or recovery rates; actual performance of plant, equipment or processes relative to specifications and expectations; accidents; labour relations; relations with local communities; changes in national or local governments; changes in applicable legislation or application thereof; delays in obtaining approvals or financing or in the completion of development or construction activities; exchange rate fluctuations; requirements for additional capital; government regulation; environmental risks; reclamation expenses; outcomes of pending litigation; limitations on insurance coverage as well as those factors discussed in the Company's other public disclosure documents, available on www.sedarplus.ca.
