stated condition or result to occur. Forward-looking statements may be
identified by such terms as "believes", "anticipates", "expects", "estimates",
"may", "could", "would", "will", or "plan". Since forward-looking statements
are based on assumptions and address future events and conditions, by their
very nature they involve inherent risks and uncertainties. Although these
statements are based on information currently available to the Company, the
Company provides no assurance that actual results will meet management's
expectations. Risks, uncertainties and other factors involved with
forward-looking information could cause actual events, results, performance,
prospects and opportunities to differ materially from those expressed or
implied by such forward-looking information. Forward-looking information in
this news release includes, but is not limited to, the Company's intentions
regarding its objectives, goals or future plans and statements. Factors that
could cause actual results to differ materially from such forward-looking
information include, but are not limited to, the Company's ability to predict
or counteract the potential impact of COVID-19 coronavirus on factors relevant
to the Company's business, failure to identify additional mineral resources,
failure to convert estimated mineral resources to reserves with more advanced
studies, the inability to eventually complete a feasibility study which could
support a production decision, the preliminary nature of metallurgical test
results may not be representative of the deposit as a whole, 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, capital, operating and reclamation costs
varying significantly from estimates and the other risks involved in the
mineral exploration and development industry, and those risks set out in the
Company's public documents. Although the Company believes that the assumptions
and factors used in preparing the forward-looking information in this news
release are reasonable, undue reliance should not be placed on such
information, which only applies as of the date of this news release, and no
