Cautionary Note Regarding Forward
Looking Statements:
Certain statements in this news release are
forward-looking and involve a number of risks and uncertainties.
Such forward-looking statements are within the meaning of the
phrase ‘forward-looking information’ in the Canadian Securities
Administrators’ National Instrument 51-102 – Continuous Disclosure
Obligations. Forward-looking statements are not comprised of
historical facts. Forward-looking statements include estimates and
statements that describe the Company’s future plans, objectives or
goals, including words to the effect that the Company or management
expects a 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 completion of
Transaction and the private placement on the terms described herein
(or if at all), the ability to obtain requisite corporate and
regulatory approvals, including, but not limited to, the approval
from the TSXV for the Transaction and the private placement and the
completion of subscription of subscription commitments under the
private placement.
In making the forward-looking statements
included in this news release, the Company has applied several
material assumptions, including that the Company’s financial
condition and development plans do not change because of unforeseen
events, that future metal prices and the demand and market outlook
for metals will remain stable or improve, management’s ability to
execute its business strategy, the receipt of all necessary
approvals, the satisfaction of all closing conditions of the
Transaction, the closing of the Offering, and no unexpected or
adverse regulatory changes with respect to La Parrilla.
Forward-looking statements and information are subject to various
known and unknown risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond
the ability of the Company to control or predict, that may cause
the Company’s actual results, performance or achievements to be
materially different from those expressed or implied thereby, and
are developed based on assumptions about such risks, uncertainties
and other factors set out herein, including, but not limited to,
the risk that the Company is not able to complete the Transaction
or the Offering on the terms anticipated by the Company (or at
all), the risk that the Company is unable to obtain requisite
corporate and regulatory approvals, including but not limited to
the approval of the TSXV, the Mexican government, and shareholder
approval, the risk that the assumptions referred to above prove not
to be valid or reliable, market conditions and volatility and
global economic conditions including increased volatility and
potentially negative capital raising conditions resulting from the
continued or escalation of the COVID-19 pandemic, risk of delay
and/or cessation in planned work or changes in the Company’s
financial condition and development plans; risks associated with
the interpretation of data (including in respect of third party
mineralized material) regarding the geology, grade and continuity
of mineral deposits, the uncertainty of the geology, grade and
continuity of mineral deposits and the risk of unexpected
variations in mineral resources, grade and/or recovery rates; risks
related to gold, silver and other commodity price fluctuations;
employee relations; relationships with and claims by local
communities and indigenous populations; availability and increasing
costs associated with mining inputs and labour, the speculative
nature of mineral exploration and development, including the risks
of obtaining necessary licenses and permits and the presence of
laws and regulations that may impose restrictions on mining; risks
relating to environmental regulation and liability; the possibility
that results will not be consistent with the Company’s
expectations.
Such forward-looking information represents
management’s best judgment based on information currently
available. No forward-looking statement can be guaranteed, and
actual future results may vary materially. Accordingly, readers are
advised not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements
or information.
