FireFox Gold Amends Property Option Agreements

VANCOUVER, May 15, 2020 - FireFox Gold Corp. ("FireFox" or the "Company") is pleased to report that it has signed amendments to its property option agreements with Magnus Minerals Ltd., ("Magnus") that defer and extend the schedule of both exploration obligations and cash payments. The amendments cover the Jeesiö, Riikonkoski, Ylöjärvi and Seuru properties, and include extensions to the schedules by up to one year from their original dates.

FireFox Chairman Patrick Highsmith commented, "From the outset, our agreements with Magnus were structured with minimal cash payments and a clear focus on money into the ground, as both companies agreed that is the best path to discovery and value. By providing additional flexibility in the timing, Magnus continues to demonstrate its commitment to FireFox's success in Finland. The amended terms help ensure the security of our project tenure even during these challenging times, while we proceed with planning our field work for the 2020 summer field season. Management is based in Finland and is attentive to the health, safety, and logistical requirements imposed by the COVID-19 situation."

Through the execution of superseding amendments to the option agreements, FireFox and Magnus have extended the interim deadlines by which certain exploration expenditure and cash payments are to be made.

An important result of the amendments is that FireFox has extended the term by one year for the final earn-in expenditures and cash payments to execute its option on the Riikonkoski, Jeesiö, and Ylöjärvi (RJY) properties. The Company now has until August 31, 2021 to invest $485,000 in exploration on the RJY properties, and the final cash payments to Magnus over that period will now occur as follows:

a) $60,000 on or before August 31, 2020;
b) $50,000 on or before February 28, 2021; and
c) $50,000 on or before August 31, 2021.

In addition, the amendments push back the milestones by six months for earn-in exploration works and cash payments on the Seuru group of properties. In order to complete its vesting in 100% interest in the Seuru Properties, the Company will now be required to invest a further $1.305 million in exploration work by October 5, 2021, including $305,000 by October 5, 2020. The cash payment schedule has also been pushed back, resulting in $50,000 payments to Magnus being due on October 5, 2020 and October 5, 2021.

The parties have confirmed that FireFox's option agreements are in good standing. Fieldwork is expected to resume on the RJY and Seuru properties during summer of 2020.
