October 30, 2023

Toronto, Ontario – (Newsfile – October 30th, 2023) Minera Alamos Inc. (the “Company” or “Minera Alamos”) (TSX.V: MAI) is pleased to announce that it has executed the definitive documentation (the “Cerro de Oro Financing Documents”) for the previously announced Cerro de Oro funding package associated with the planned construction of the Cerro de Oro gold mine that is currently anticipated to begin next year.

The Company entered into the Cerro de Oro Financing Documents with Auramet International Inc. (“Auramet”) and Auramet Capital Partners LP (“Auramet Capital”) which is comprised of a loan facility for up to US$15 million and a US$10 million royalty (see news release dated May 31, 2023, for a more detailed summary of the terms).

Upon execution of the Cerro de Oro Financing Documents, the Company also completed a drawdown of an initial US$5 million under the loan facility (the “Interim Amount”) to advance certain pre-construction work related to the Cerro de Oro project.

Doug Ramshaw, President, Minera Alamos Stated 

“We are delighted to have executed these financing documents with Auramet, which provides a fully funded and single source solution to the modest capital expenditure requirements of the planned gold mine at Cerro de Oro.

 

“Our team has had an excellent working relationship with Auramet in recent years in regard to gold sales from prior operations as well as our Santana gold mine.

 

“This has provided us great insight into how supportive a partner Auramet can be, and we are happy to have executed a funding facility which will allow us to grow the relationship with the Auramet team.”

 

.

According to the funding facility, the Company may deliver a drawdown notice to Auramet for the remaining US$10 million under the loan facility (the “Remaining Amount”) upon the satisfactory completion of certain conditions, including, among other things, (i) the final earn-in commitments of the Cerro de Oro project and property; and (ii) receipt of permits required for construction of the Cerro de Oro project.

In the event that the Company does not meet the above closing conditions or should it elect not to deliver a drawdown notice for the Remaining Amount by the earlier to occur of (i) October 27, 2024; and (ii) the date that is 31 days after all closing conditions have been satisfied, the outstanding balance of the Interim Amount (including all interest accrued thereon) shall mature and be payable in equal instalments over the subsequent 10 month period and all obligations of Auramet to advance any part of the Remaining Amount will immediately be canceled and terminated.

Closing and funding of the US$10 million under the royalty facility is conditional upon meeting the same conditions as are required to draw down on the remaining loan facility and is also conditional upon the actual drawdown of the remaining amount under the loan facility and to the extent this does not occur, any obligations under the royalty facility will also terminate.
