- Mineral Resources are not Mineral Reserves do not have demonstrated economic viability. The estimate of Mineral Re-sources may be materially affected by environmental, permitting, legal, title, taxation, socio-political, marketing, or other relevant issues. There is no certainty that Mineral Resources will be converted to Mineral Reserves.
- The Inferred Mineral Resource in this estimate has a lower level of confidence than that applied to an Indicated Min-eral Resource and must not be converted to a Mineral Reserve. It is reasonably expected that the majority of the In-ferred Mineral Resource could be upgraded to an Indicated Mineral Resource with continued exploration.
- The Mineral Resources in this news release were estimated in accordance with the Canadian Institute of Mining, Met-allurgy and Petroleum (CIM), CIM Standards on Mineral Resources and Reserves, Definitions (2014) and Best Practices Guidelines (2019) prepared by the CIM Standing Committee on Reserve Definitions and adopted by the CIM Council.
- Metal prices used were US$1,625/oz Au, US$19/oz Ag, US$2.80/lb Cu with process recoveries of 88% Au, 30% Ag and 80% Cu. A C$16.50/tonne process and C$2 G&A cost were used.
- The constraining pit optimization parameters were C$2.50/t mineralized and waste material mining cost and 50-degree pit slopes with a 0.30 gpt AuEq cut-off.
- The out-of-pit parameters were at a C$10/t large scale bulk mining cost. The out-of-pit Mineral Resource grade blocks were quantified above the 0.46 gpt AuEq cut-off, below the constraining pit shell and within the constraining mineral-ized wireframes. Out–of-Pit Mineral Resources exhibit continuity and reasonable potential for extraction by a bulk un-derground mining method.

Walter Storm, President and CEO, stated: “We are extremely pleased with our exploration efforts and the resulting Initial Mineral Resource Estimate indicating that Treaty Creek could be one of the world’s largest gold discoveries of the decade. We completed a very difficult exploration year under strict COVID-19 protocols and maintained an excellent safety record. The Goldstorm Zone remains open on all fronts and to depth, and our priority for 2021 will be to complete the drilling to the Northeast and Southeast limits as well as to depth. The objective will be to convert as much of the 7.9 million ounces of Inferred Mineral Resource averaging 0.79 gpt AuEq to Measured and Indicated Resource classifications, in addition to finding the limits to the mineralized zones within the Goldstorm Zone. Our geological team is currently planning the 2021 exploration program that will also include drilling of the newly discovered Perfect Storm Zone as well as the Eureka Zone. The goal is to add to the current Au-Ag-Cu Mineral Resource of Treaty Creek”.
QA/QC
Drill core samples were prepared at the MSA Laboratories (“MSA”) Preparation facility in Terrace, BC and assayed at MSA’s Geochemical Laboratory in Langley, BC. Analytical accuracy and precision are monitored by the submission of blanks, certified standards and duplicate samples inserted at regular intervals into the sample stream by Tudor Gold personnel. MSA Laboratories quality system complies with the requirements for the International Standards ISO 17025 and ISO 9001. MSA is independent of the Company.

Generally, but not always, forward-looking information and statements can be identified by the use of words such as “plans”, “expects”, “is expected”, “budget”, “scheduled”, “estimates”, “forecasts”, “intends”, “anticipates”, or “believes” or the negative connotation thereof or variations of such words and phrases or state that certain actions, events or results “may”, “could”,“would”, “might” or “will be taken”, “occur” or “be achieved” or the negative connotation thereof.
Such forward-looking information and statements are based on numerous assumptions, including among others, that the Company’s will file a technical report within 45 days of this news release, the Company will complete the drilling of the Goldstorm Zone and will define the limits of the 300 Horizon, the CS-600 and DS-5 Zones and the Company will drill the Perfect Storm Zone and the Eureka Zone on the timeline anticipated by management. Although the assumptions made by the Company in providing forward-looking information or making forward-looking statements are considered reasonable by management at the time, there can be no assurance that such assumptions will prove to be accurate.
There can be no assurance that such statements will prove to be accurate and actual results and future events could differ materially from those anticipated in such statements. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the Company’s plans or expectations include that the Company’s will not file a technical report within 45 days of this news release or at all, the Company will not complete the drilling of the Goldstorm Zone and will be unable to define the limits of the 300 Horizon, the CS-600 and DS-5 Zones and the Company will not drill the Perfect Storm Zone and the Eureka Zone on the timeline anticipated by management or at all and other risks detailed herein and from time to time in the filings made by the Company with securities regulators.
Although the Company has attempted to identify important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in the forward-looking information or implied by forward-looking information, there may be other factors that cause results not to be as anticipated, estimated or intended.
