Production volumes are commonly expressed on a barrel of oil equivalent ("BOE") basis whereby natural gas volumes are converted at a ratio of six thousand cubic feet to one barrel of oil. The intention is to convert oil and natural gas measurement units into one basis for improved analysis of results and comparisons with other industry participants. The term BOE may be misleading, particularly if used in isolation. The conversion ratio is based on an energy equivalent method and does not represent an economic value equivalency at the wellhead.

ReleaseID: 621613

VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / December 18, 2020 / Majestic Gold Corp. ("Majestic" or the "Company") (TSXV:MJS)(FSE:MJT) reports that it will commence a 1,200 metre aircore ("AC) drill program at its Fair Adelaide Project, located in Western Australia. It will be the first phase of drilling undertaken by the Company at Fair Adelaide and will consist of a number of short holes to inexpensively confirm and expand on mineralization in holes drilled by previous operators at the Fair Adelaide East and Puzzle Bear prospects. The program is scheduled to begin in early January 2021.

The Property is located approximately 60 kilometres northwest of Kalgoorlie in the Ora Banda region of Western Australia. The eight contiguous tenements owned by Plutus Resources Pty. Ltd. ("Plutus") comprise a total area of 1,322 hectares and are within the Eastern Goldfields Province of the Archaean Yilgarn Craton of Western Australia which covers a portion of the Ora Banda Domain of the Kalgoorlie Terrane. The property is situated within the Norseman-Wiluna greenstone belt of the Eastern Goldfields Province.

The Fair Adelaide property covers a highly prospective portion of ultramafic rocks on the western limb of the Goongarrie-Mt Pleasant anticline in the prolific Kalgoorlie gold district which also hosts significant base metal occurrences. The greenstone rocks that host gold mineralisation at Fair Adelaide East play host regionally to the Siberia, Mt Pleasant and Paddington gold deposits.

At the Fair Adelaide East prospect target area, initial drilling targeted near surface gold mineralization intersected in a well oxidized ultramafic unit at the contact of a granodiorite. Drilling along the granite‐ultramafic contact identified a zone of sericite‐pyrite alteration, with lesser quartz veining, that can be traced for several hundred metres in a north‐south direction. These alteration assemblages are consistent with those observed on the edges of quartz veins and within small shears through the granodiorite.

This program will drill several shallow holes through the contact zone between the ultramafic and granitoid as well as drill some deeper holes to test for primary mineralization in unoxidized ultramafics, similar to the style of gold mineralization found at Tarmoola, in the northern Kalgoorlie-Wiluna Belt, where mineralization is hosted in sub-vertical contact sheared margin of a large granitoid.

At the Puzzle Bear prospect, two sub-parallel nickel bearing gossans adjacent to thrust faults were discovered in 2004. The geology at Puzzle Bear is along strike with rocks that hose nickel-cobalt mineralization at the nearby Cawse Laterite deposits (Norilsk Nickel Australia). The Company will drill several shallow holes to confirm results from a reverse air blast drilling program down by Crusader in 2004.

The Company has been granted an option to acquire a 51% interest in the property from Plutus, a privately owned Australian company, by paying Plutus A$30,000 on execution of the Agreement, a further A$30,000 on or before December 2020 and expending a total A$2,000,000 in exploration expenses on the properties during the ensuing two years ending December 15, 2023, provided that Majestic expends a minimum of A$500,000 on the properties during the year commencing December 15, 2021 and ending December 15, 2022.

Alternatively, Majestic may elect to acquire a 51% interest in fewer than the full eight tenements by making the two cash payments of A$30,000 and electing to expend a minimum of A$250,000 on any one or any number of tenements each and relinquishing the balance of the tenements back to Plutus, again provided Majestic expends a minimum of $500,000 during the year commencing December 15, 2021 and ending December 15, 2023.

Following Majestic having earned a 51% interest either in the full 8 Tenements or any fewer number Plutus and Majestic shall either negotiate a joint venture for the further development of the then jointly-owned properties or negotiate a sale of a 44% interest in the said properties by Plutus to Majestic.

Forward‐looking statements are statements which relate to future events. Such statements include estimates, forecasts and statements as to management's expectations with respect to, among other things, business and financial prospects, financial multiples and accretion estimates, future trends, plans, strategies, objectives and expectations, including with respect to production, exploration drilling, reserves and resources, exploitation activities and events or future operations. Information inferred from the interpretation of drilling results and information concerning mineral resource estimates may also be deemed to be forward-looking statements, as it constitutes a prediction of what might be found to be present when, and if, a project is actually developed.

In some cases, you can identify forward‐looking statements by terminology such as "may", "should", "expects", "plans, "anticipates", believes", "estimates", "predicts", "potential", or "continue" or the negative of these terms or other comparable terminology. These statements are only predictions and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause our or our industry's actual results, level of activity, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, levels of activity, performance, or achievements expressed or implied by these forward‐looking statements.

While these forward‐looking statements, and any assumptions upon which they are based, are made in good faith and reflect our current judgment regarding the direction of our business, actual results will almost always vary, sometimes materially, from any estimates, predictions, projections, assumptions or other future performance suggestions herein.

VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / December 17, 2020 / International Montoro Resources Inc. (TSXV:IMT)(Frankfurt:O4T1)(OTC PINK:IMTFF); (the "Company") is pleased to announce that has received an extension to its drilling permit from the Ministry of Energy, Northern Development, and Mines (ENDM) for its 1,840-hectare Pecors – Ni, Cu, PGE project near Elliot Lake, Ontario. The exploration permit will allow the company to delineate the extent of nickel, copper, and PGM mineralization discovered in 2015 diamond drilling and VTEM survey on the Pecors anomaly. Past exploration and geophysical interpretation by the company has outlined a significant 5.7km long and 4.2km wide anomaly to be tested by drilling under the exploration permit extension. Sampling of diamond drill core in 2015 (DDH P-15-23) intersected a mineralized zone near the anomaly over 12-meters averaging 0.33 g/t TPM, 0.11% Cu, and 0.04% Ni (see press release dated October 22, 2020).

The Pecors anomaly is a strong regional magnetic high that extends for 18km southeast-northwest and up to 4km wide. The anomaly is located 15km from the East Bull Intrusive Suite where recent drilling by Grid Metals Corp. (TSXV:GRDM) recently intersected 119m of 1.13 g/t Pd_Eq (see press release December 3, 2020). Canadian Palladiums (CSE:BULL) recent drilling results (see press release dated December 4, 2020) reported a 5m intersection grading 5.1 g/t Pd_Eq from it's East Bull property. This result appears to be an extension to their 43-101 compliant inferred resource estimate of 11.1Mt grading 1.46 g/t Pd_Eq.

The Pecors anomaly is mostly overlain by Huronian aged sediments. The source of the magnetic anomaly has now been confirmed to be at least partially comprised of lithologies of gabbroic affinity by International Montoro drilling in 2015. These gabbroic rocks are similar in nature to the East Bull Intrusive Suite and may represent an additional source of PGE-bearing mineralization that is found throughout the Sudbury region.

Mr. Karim Rayani, President & Chief Executive Officer commented "The drilling permit extension will enable us to return to our Pecors Ni-Cu-PGE project to investigate the extent and nature of the 2015 significant results. This appears to be a new source of PGE mineralization within an area close to the success of Grid Metals and Canadian Palladium."

VICTORIA, BC / ACCESSWIRE / December 17, 2020 / Erin Ventures Inc. (TSXV:EV) is pleased to report that it has entered into a Letter of Intent with Temas Resources Corp. ("Temas") for the joint development of Erin's Piskanja Borate Project, located in Serbia ("Piskanja").

Piskanja is Erin's wholly-owned boron deposit with an indicated mineral resource of 7.8 million tonnes (averaging 31.0 per cent B2O3) and an inferred resource of 3.4 million tonnes (averaging 28.6 per cent B2O3), calculated in accordance with the Canadian Institute of Mining Definition Standards on Mineral Resources and Reserves (CIM Standards), as disclosed in Erin's report titled, "Mineral Resource Estimate Update On The Piskanja Borate Project, Serbia, October 2016 – Amended February 28, 2019" – prepared by SRK Consulting (UK) Ltd. The responsible persons for the Updated MRE are Dr. Mike Armitage (C.Eng. C.Geol.) and Dr. Mikhail Tsypukov, who are both full-time employees of SRK and Qualified Persons in accordance with the CIM Definition Standards on Mineral Resources and Reserves (CIM Standards), and independent of Erin Ventures.

The salient terms in the Letter of Intent ("LOI") as are follows:

Temas has a sole, exclusive, immediate, and irrevocable option to earn up to 50% equity interest in Balkan Gold (Erin's wholly-owned subsidiary which holds the license to the Piskanja Boron Project) by expending a total of €10.5 million towards the development of Piskanja, within a 36-month period (the "Option Transaction").
Upon receiving approval of the Option Transaction, Temas will make a one-time payment of 250,000 Temas common shares and 250,000 share purchase warrants (at $1.00 for 4 years) to Erin.
The terms of this LOI will form the basis of a definitive, binding Option Agreement, which the parties contemplate will be entered into no later than April 15, 2021.
Temas has until Feb. 28, 2021 to complete its due diligence regarding Piskanja.
Each €210,000 advanced to the Project by Temas will earn Temas an additional 1% undivided equity interest in Balkan Gold, to a maximum of 50% interest for €10.5M.
Temas has the right to accelerate the Option expenditures.
Upon acquisition of 50% interest in Balkan Gold by completing its expenditures, Temas will entitled to representation on the board of Balkan Gold, voting rights, and dilution provisions, among other rights regarding the governance of Balkan Gold.
An included dilution provision will state that all cost overruns beyond the €10.5M obligation by Temas are to be equally shared by Temas and Erin. In the event that one party chooses not to fulfill its funding obligation, that party's interest in Balkan Gold will be diluted. If a party's interest falls below 10%, such ownership is converted to a 2% net smelter royalty or 10% of net profits interest.
Erin will remain operator on the project until such time as Temas has exercised the Option and earned its 50% interest in Balkan Gold, at which point Temas will become operator of Piskanja.
During the 3-year Option Period, a joint technical committee made up of members from both Erin and Temas will have final say on matters pertaining to programs and budgets.
This LOI is non-binding, with the terms subject to the parties entering into a binding Option Agreement.
The Option Agreement will be subject to satisfactory completion of due diligence, applicable regulatory approvals, board approvals, shareholder approvals as may be required, amongst other factors.

"We are extremely excited by this development" said Tim Daniels, CEO of Erin. "Temas is an exceptionally good fit for this project. Not only are they willing to match their funding commitments for Piskanja with the anticipated equity requirements for project development right through to production, but in addition, they have an experienced management team with like-minded thinking towards the development of Piskanja. Undoubtedly we are stronger with them as our partner."

Michael Dehn, CEO of Temas, added, "having the ability to work on a very advanced project with a very high demand commodity that would be the only European production of borates should add significant shareholder value, along with our Ilmenite deposits in Canada. Having access to premier projects that could produce products that end up in consumer and industrial products should allow Temas evolve from an explorer to producer."

The words "believe," "expect," "feel," "plan," "anticipate," "project," "could," "should," and other similar expressions generally identify forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are subject to significant risks and uncertainties and other factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from expected results. Readers should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from any forward-looking statement include, but are not limited to, failure to convert estimated mineral resources to reserves, capital and operating costs varying significantly from estimates, the preliminary nature of metallurgical test results, delays in obtaining or failures to obtain required governmental, environmental or other project approvals, political risks, uncertainties relating to the availability and costs of financing needed in the future, changes in equity markets, inflation, changes in exchange rates, fluctuations in commodity prices, delays in the development of projects and the other risks involved in the mineral exploration and development industry, as well as those factors discussed in the section entitled "Risks of the Business" in the Company's most recent regulatory filings which are posted on SEDAR at www.sedar.com. These forward-looking statements are made as of the date hereof, and the Company assumes no responsibility to update them or revise them to reflect new events or circumstances other than as required by applicable securities law. These and other factors made in public disclosures and filings by the Company should be considered carefully.

Mineral resources are not mineral reserves and do not have demonstrated economic viability. "Inferred Resources" have a great amount of uncertainty as to their existence and economic and legal feasibility. Investors are cautioned not to assume that all or any part of an inferred mineral resource reported in this news release will ever be upgraded to a higher category or to reserves. U.S. persons are advised that while mineral resources are recognized under Canadian regulations, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission does not recognize them. U.S. persons are also cautioned not to assume that all or any part of an inferred mineral resource is economically or legally mineable.

VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / December 17, 2020 / NV Gold Corporation (TSXV:NVX)(OTCQB:NVGLF) ("NV Gold" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that drilling is now underway at the 100% controlled and fully permitted Slumber Gold Project ("Slumber") located approximately 50 miles northwest of Winnemucca, Humboldt County, Nevada, USA. Drilling at Slumber will encompass up to 2,500 m in up to 10 RC drill holes. For additional information on the Slumber Gold Project, please refer to NV Gold's press releases, dated September 25th, October 27th, 2020 and November 25th, 2020. In addition, the Company has completed its geological review of the Exodus Gold Project in British Columbia and decided to terminate its option to acquire an interest in it.

"Drilling has commenced at the Slumber Gold Project during the week of December 6th, targeting a potential buried high-grade gold vein system," commented Peter A. Ball, President and CEO of NV Gold. "The Company has also completed its due diligence review of the optioned Exodus Gold Project and has determined the project not to be a property of merit that fits into NV Gold's exploration strategy and focus. NV Gold's management team is always focused on minimizing dilution and preserving capital when related to exploring or acquiring new gold opportunities."

NV Gold completed a due diligence review of the Exodus property from August through October 2020. The project was re-interpreted from an orogenic lode gold target to a distal mineral gold occurrence that was small, discontinuous and likely related to localized intrusions. The extensive glacial till cover, proximity to nearby main tributaries and farmland and also not being able to form an Early Engagement Agreement with the local First-Nations group limited further property exploration.

The Company has determined that, based on its interpretation of the size of the system and the lack of any material results from NV Gold's exploration to-date, the Exodus Gold Project does not merit further expenditure under the terms of the current option agreement. The deal structure of the Exodus property option ensured that a preliminary geological review could be completed with minimal initial cash and share payments to the property vendors during the first six month option period (refer to the Company's press release dated July 6, 2020).

SUDBURY, ON / ACCESSWIRE / December 17, 2020 / Northern Superior Resources ("Northern Superior" or the "Company")(TSXV:SUP) is pleased to announce the successful completion of its previously announced $4.25MM financing (see Northern Superior press releases dated November 9, 2020 (x2) and November 12, 2020).

The Company raised $2,500,000 of proceeds through the issuance of 2,271,363 common shares of the Company, issued on a "flow-though" basis to subscribers in the Province of Québec ("FT Shares"), at a price of $1.10 per FT Share. The Company raised an additional $1,750,000 of proceeds through the issuance of 2,187,500 units of the Company ("Hard Dollar Units"), at a price of $0.80 per Hard Dollar Unit. Each Hard Dollar Unit is comprised of one common share of the Company (a "Share") and a half warrant (a "Warrant"). Each whole Warrant entitles the holder to acquire one additional Share at a price of $1.20 per Share, until June 14, 2022.

In connection with the financing, the Company paid an aggregate of $157,287.01 in cash commissions and fees and issued an aggregate of 96,400 finders Warrants (on the same terms as Warrants issued to investors) to Cormark Securities Inc., Agentis Capital Markets Canada Limited Partnership, Clarus Securities Inc., Paradigm Capital Inc., Laurentian Bank Securities Inc. and Sidex sec.

All of the securities issued in connection with the financing are subject to a 4 month hold period under applicable securities laws, which expires on April 15, 2021. The TSX Venture Exchange conditionally approved the private placement on December 11, 2020.

New Gold

The Company is pleased to report that as part of this financing, New Gold Inc. invested a further $237,000 with the Company by acquiring 296,250 Hard Dollar Units. This additional investment by New Gold will allow them to maintain their 9.99% ownership stake in Northern Superior, should New Gold choose to exercise all of the Warrants forming part of the Hard Dollar Units purchased.

Director Participation

$240,000 of the gross proceeds were raised through the issuance of 300,000 Hard Dollar Units to three directors of the Company. This investment by the Company's board increases the board and management's total ownership interest of Northern Superior to 12,525,858 shares or approximately 19.81% of the current shares outstanding.

Use of Proceeds

This new infusion of hard dollars coupled with hard dollars currently held, will be used for general working capital purposes, ensuring that the Company can, based on current levels of spending, meet its administration and overhead commitments for at least the next 3 calendar years, starting in 2021.

The $2,500,000 of proceeds raised from the sale of FT Shares will be utilized to incur "Canadian Exploration Expenses" that are "flow-through mining expenditures" in support of an exploration program on the Company's 100% owned Lac Surprise and Croteau Est properties, Québec.

Tom Morris, President and CEO of the Company states: "With the conclusion of this financing, 2021 promises to be an exciting year for Northern Superior. The Company now has the financial resources to: i) fund an expanded drill program on its recent discovery on Lac Surprise (see Northern Superior press release, November 5, 2020); ii) unlock and understand the large potential of TPK with a fully funded $3.7 million dollar drill program; iii) expand and better define the current 640,000 oz 1.7g per ton resource and other regional opportunities at Croteau Est; and iv) provide the financial flexibility to evaluate and act upon other opportunities if warranted. We would like to thank all of those who have participated in the various financings throughout 2020, providing the Company this tremendous opportunity to unlock the value in its exciting exploration projects."

Board Structure and Directors' Fees

The Company has recently enhanced its board structure by creating several new board committees. Now, in addition to its existing Audit Committee, the board has created a new Technical, Health & Safety and Corporate Social Responsibility Committee, a Finance & Corporate Activities Committee and a formal Compensation & Corporate Governance Committee.

In addition, in an effort to preserve cash and to and to better align the interests of the Company's independent board members with the interests of the Company and with management, the board has also approved a new plan to pay independent directors' fees ($5,000 plus an additional $625 for committee chairs, per quarter) with common shares of the Company. If the plan is approved by the TSX Venture Exchange, quarterly directors' fees will be paid in arrears, with the number of common shares issuable each quarter to be calculated based on the closing price of the Company's shares on the last trading day of each such quarter. The Company will also seek exchange approval to include with the issuance for Q4, additional shares for directors' fees which have accrued since the beginning of 2020, but which have not been paid.
