AGI Alamos Gold Inc

GFG Resources Inc. (TSXV: GFG) (OTCQB: GFGSF) (“GFG” or the “Company”) announces today that it is electing to accelerate the expiry of outstanding share purchase warrants (“Warrants”) of the Company originally issued on October 6, 2022, March 21, 2023 and April 19, 2024. In connection with the acceleration of warrants, Alamos Gold Inc. (“Alamos”) (TSX: AGI; NYSE: AGI) has exercised 5,343,302 warrants for a total consideration of C$694,629. In addition to Alamos, a large majority of warrant holders have confirmed their intent to exercise.

Pursuant to the terms of the Warrants, the Company may accelerate the expiry date of the Warrants if the closing price of the Company’s common shares on the TSX Venture Exchange equals or exceeds C$0.18 for 10 consecutive trading days (the “Acceleration Period”), to the date which is 30 days following the dissemination of a news release announcing the acceleration. The Company hereby provides notice of the Acceleration Period covering the 10 trading days ended November 1, 2024 and that the Company is exercising its right to accelerate the expiry of the Warrants to 5:00 p.m. (Toronto Time) on December 9, 2024 (the "Accelerated Expiry Date"). Any Warrants remaining unexercised after the Accelerated Expiry Date will expire and be of no force and effect.

As of November 7, 2024, an aggregate of 23,989,553 Warrants remain outstanding. Accordingly, if all the outstanding Warrants are exercised, gross proceeds to the Company will total approximately C$3.9 million. There is no assurance that all of the Warrants will be exercised. Holders may exercise the Warrants before the Accelerated Expiry Date by observing the process as set out in the Warrant certificates.

"This is an exciting opportunity for GFG," said Brian Skanderbeg, President and CEO of GFG. "The warrant exercise could bring in nearly C$4.0 million in capital, providing us with a strong financial foundation to aggressively advance drill programs at both the historic Aljo Gold Mine and the new Muskego Gold Target. We are confident that these programs will expand the Aljo gold system and potentially lead to a significant gold discovery at Muskego, ultimately aiming to find the next gold mine in the prolific and infrastructure rich Timmins Gold District."

Prior to the closing of Alamos’ warrant exercise (the “Transaction”), Alamos held 23,809,004 common shares of GFG, representing a security holding percentage of approximately 9.8%, on an undiluted basis. Following the closing of the Transaction, Alamos will have beneficial ownership of, or control and direction over 29,152,306 common shares or 11.8% of common shares of GFG, on an undiluted basis (based on 247,217,181 common shares outstanding as of November 7, 2024) and no warrants. Alamos acquired the common shares for investment purposes, which will be evaluated and may be increased or decreased from time to time at Alamos' discretion.
