information” as defined under applicable Canadian and U.S.
securities legislation. All statements, other than statements of
historical fact, which address events, results, outcomes or
developments that Alamos expects to occur are, or may be deemed to
be, forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are
generally, but not always, identified by the use of forward-looking
terminology such as “expect”, “assume”, “anticipate”, “believe”,
“potential”, “intend”, “prospective” or variations of such words
and phrases and similar expressions or statements that certain
actions, events or results “may”, “could”, “would”, “might” or
“will” be taken, occur or be achieved or the negative connotation
of such terms.
Forward-looking statements in this news release
include, but may not be limited to, information pertaining to the

Alamos cautions that forward-looking statements
are necessarily based upon a number of factors and assumptions
that, while considered reasonable by Alamos at the time of making

results to differ materially from those projected in the
forward-looking statements and undue reliance should not be placed
on such statements and information. Investors are cautioned not to
assume that all or any part of additional mineral deposits that may
be acquired are, or will be, economically or legally mineable or
that they will ever be converted into Proven and Probable Mineral
Reserves (as that term is defined in National Instrument 43-101 –
Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects and the Canadian
Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum – CIM Definition
Standards on Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves, adopted by the
CIM Council, as amended).
Risk factors that may affect Alamos’ ability to
