Following the tour, Senator Fann commented, "Arizona Metals Corp. is the kind of company and operation we want to see in rural Arizona. When you combine this thoughtful approach to doing things the right way with the potential this project has to ultimately create hundreds of jobs and dynamic economic activity, as the State Senator for this area, I am very excited to have this company and project in my district."

State Representative Noel Campbell also expressed his support, "As a state representative of the legislative district in which you are operating, I care very much about the potential for job creation and economic activity that your project represents. But I also care about the quality of life of the citizens that I represent, so I appreciate all you are doing to work with the people that live in the area."

Arizona House Representative, Bob Thorpe, stated, "As the co-chair of the Arizona Legislature's Mining Caucus, as well as a state representative of a northern Arizona rural district just up the road from your project, I am delighted to see your project come to our state and thrilled at what might develop in the Black Canyon City area and beyond… I wholly appreciate and endorse your efforts and will do whatever I can to support the ultimate success of the operation and all the benefits it will bring to rural Arizona. I also appreciate the ethical and community sensitive approach your company brings to the project. And I have appreciated the way you have brought me and other public officials into the loop."

On March 19th 2020, the Company announced the temporary suspension of the drill program in order to protect the safety of employees, contractors and the local community in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. No cases of infection have been reported in any of the Company's employees or contractors. Arizona Metals' employees and contractors will be ready to resume operations as soon as local conditions are deemed safe.

The Company has a strong cash position of approximately $3M, and will now focus efforts on modelling drill data received to date in order to refine planned targets for the resumption of drilling.

Nine holes of the sixteen hole Phase 1 drill program at the Kay Mine have been completed, and assay results are pending.
