West Red Lake Gold Acknowledges Truth and Reconciliation Day
September 30 2024 - 6:54AM
September 30 marks the National Day for Truth and
Reconciliation. The day is also recognized as Orange Shirt Day.
West Red Lake Gold Mines Ltd. (“West Red Lake Gold” or
the “Company”) (TSXV: WRLG) (OTCQB: WRLGF) acknowledges
those who were lost and those who survived residential schools, as
well as their families and communities. Through implementing
the Truth and Reconciliation Corporate Calls to Action, the Company
is striving to be a leader in economic reconciliation.
“Actively working to see the truth of Canada’s treatment of
First Nations and finding ways to reconcile and heal are essential
and we keenly embrace the Corporate Calls to Action at West Red
Lake Gold,” said Shane Williams, President and CEO. “While we
wear orange as protective, reflective gear every day, the Orange
T-Shirt is impactful to the WRLG team in how it grew out of a youth
led, grass roots movement to illustrate the resilience of the
survivors of residential schools, who had to fight the stripping
away of culture, freedom and self-esteem.”
The Company’s Madsen Mine and Rowan projects are within Treaty
#3 and the traditional territories of Lac Seul and Wabauskang First
Nation, with whom West Red Lake Gold has a Project Partnership
Agreement in place to guide relations.

CAUTIONARY STATEMENT AND FORWARD-LOOKING
INFORMATION
The decision to continue with the advancement of the Madsen Mine
restart and the Company’s operations and plans with respect
thereto, as described herein (the “Madsen Mine Restart”), are based
on economic models prepared by the Company in conjunction with
management’s knowledge of the property and the existing estimate of
indicated and inferred mineral resources on the property set out in
the report entitled, “Independent NI 43-101 Technical Report and
Updated Mineral Resource Estimate for the PureGold Mine, Canada”,
with an effective date of July 31, 2022, as amended on April 24,
2024, a copy of which is available on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca.
The Madsen Mine Restart is not based on a preliminary economic
assessment, a pre-feasibility study or a feasibility study of
mineral reserves demonstrating economic and technical viability.
Accordingly, there is increased uncertainty and economic and
technical risks of failure associated with the Madsen Mine Restart,
in particular: the risk that mineral grades will be lower than
expected; the risk that additional ongoing mining operations are
more difficult or more expensive than expected; and the risk that
production and economic variables may vary considerably, due to the
absence of a detailed economic and technical analysis undertaken in
accordance with National Instrument 43-101 - Standards of
Disclosure for Mineral Projects.
