Ely Gold Royalties Announces Closing of Lincoln Hill Royalty

Ely Gold purchased the Lincoln Hill Royalty, from a non-arms length private party (the "Seller"). The Closing has been approved by the TSXV.

Coeur's acquisition of Lincoln Hill

Coeur purchased the Lincoln Hill Property, as part of a larger property package, from Alio Gold Inc. in October 2018. According to the Coeur press release, dated October 16, 2018, the acquisition offered, in part, the following synergies with its Rochester property:

• Lincoln Hill average gold resource grade is more than four-times higher than Rochester's current grade;

• Lincoln Hill is expected to become a source of higher-grade, low-cost production capable of bolstering future cash flow and further extending Rochester's mine life;

• Coeur is currently permitting the Stage VI leach pad near Linclon Hill; and

• Consistent with Coeur's strategy of growing its production and cash flow with the addition of low- risk, high-quality and high-return asset.

The Transaction

Ely Gold will pay the Seller a total of $750,000 payable as follows:

• $400,000 at Closing (paid); and

• $350,000 payble on September 10, 2020

The 2020 payment will accrue simple interest at 5% and be secured by the Lincon Hill Royalty. In addition, Ely Gold has issued the Seller 500,000 common stock purchase warrants. Each warrant will allow the Seller to purchase one share of Ely Gold common stock at CAN$0.18 for 2 years from the closing date. The purchase agreement includes a right of first refusal if the Seller disposes of an additional 1% royalty they currently hold.
