TriStar Gold Inc. Receives Final Royal Gold Payment, Gives Project Update

01.04.2020  |  Newsfile
Scottsdale, April 1, 2020 - TriStar Gold Inc. (the Company or TriStar) is pleased to announce that Royal Gold has made the final payment of US$1.5 million in connection with Royal Gold's acquisition of a 1.5% NSR royalty on the Company's Castelo de Sonhos (CDS) project (see press release dated August 6, 2019 "TriStar Completes US$8 million Agreement with Royal Gold" for full details). Additionally, the Company is excited to have reached a major milestone in its advance towards permitting with the approval of a unified Terms of Reference for the concessions covering the resource area at Castelo de Sonhos.

"We are proud of Royal Gold's continued confidence in Castelo de Sonhos, and TriStar is in a strong financial position to unlock the value in this project," says Nick Appleyard, TriStar's President and CEO. "We're also really happy with the results we're getting from the in-fill drill program, not only for the occasional higher grade but more for the entirety of the infill drilling program which is producing results consistent with our PEA resource model. With these additional ~20,000m of infill drilling, we anticipate that we'll be able to convert much of the inferred resource in Esperança South into indicated resources which can serve as a solid base for reserve calculations in the PFS."

Final Royal Gold payment

Tristar has received payment of US$1.5 million from Royal Gold as the final instalment of the previously announced transaction. Royal Gold now holds:

? a newly created 1.5% NSR royalty on Castelo de Sonhos

? a total of 19,640,000 common share purchase warrants, each entitling Royal Gold to purchase one common share of TriStar at a price of C$0.25 per common share for a period of approximately five years from the date of issuance

? the repurchase right to acquire 50% of the existing 2% NSR royalty on CDS held by a third party

Permitting, approval of Terms of Reference

TriStar and SEMAS, the environmental authority in Pará State, have agreed upon the guidelines for the formal social and environmental studies that will form the basis for applications for the environmental permit, construction permit and operations permit. The approval of the Terms of Reference for the study and report encompasses the two contiguous concessions covering the current mineral resource.

Infill drilling results

To date TriStar has completed 167 RC holes for 17,400m, and 2 core holes for 240m from the approximately 20,000m infill drill program. During March we received results for 25 drill holes, significant intersections from these drill results include:

  • 27m @ 0.7 g/t from 36-63m in RC-20-414
  • 7m @ 1.6 g/t from 15-22m in RC-20-427
  • 8m @ 20.4 g/t from 18-26m in RC-20-432, includes 1m @ 161.5 g/t from 24-25m
  • 8m @ 1.3 g/t from 39-47m in RC-20-433

Detailed summaries of drill hole locations and significant intervals have been added to the CDS project page of the company website (www.tristargold.com) along with a complete list of all significant intervals for the project.

Impact of COVID-19 virus on ongoing work

Drilling at CDS is continuing, with the project remaining isolated to protect the health of our employees. We anticipate drilling will continue until mid-April, at which time drilling and field work will be temporarily suspended. Work on the pre-feasibility study will continue remotely where possible, however the restrictions on international travel will cause delays in the completion of the study. All staff who are not isolated at Castelo de Sonhos are working from home.

The project-wide work to evaluate for the existence of additional resources beyond those already identified, is unaffected at this time as all work is being done remotely. This scope of work is being conducted in conjunction with GoldSpot Discoveries.

Assay methods, Quality Assurance and Quality Control (QA/QC)

All drill hole samples are analyzed using a fire assay analysis of the chips collected in RC holes. Any sample that returns greater than 0.1 g/t gold is automatically submitted for a duplicate fire assay analysis and the average grade is utilized. Samples are transported by truck from the site to the ALS preparation lab in Goiania, Brazil where they are dried, crushed, pulverized and packaged for shipment to the ALS analytical lab in Lima, Peru.

The ALS preparation and analytical labs are accredited to ISO 17025:2005 UKAS ref 4028 and have internal QA/QC programs for monitoring accuracy and precision. In addition to this, TriStar uses standards, blanks and field duplicates in an external QA/QC program to provide independent monitoring of laboratory analyses.
