Ely Gold Royalties Purchases Trenton Canyon Royalty, Nevada

The Trenton Canyon property consists of 7,350 hectares located immediately south and along the mineralized trend from SSR's Marigold mine where Ely Gold also has a 0.75%. (see figure 2). The property was previously operated as an open-pit run-of-mine heap leach operation from 1996 to 2001 by Newmont Corporation. SSR purchased Trenton Canyon from Newmont in June 2019. Recent drilling by SSR (see news release May 14, 2020), on the Royalty Claims, returned 7.27 g/t gold over 30.5 meters, including 12.2 meters of 17.23 g/t gold, leading to the discovery of gold mineralization that is transitional oxide in drillhole MRA7092. Two additional mineralized intercepts in the MRA7092 returned 19.8 meters of 2.03 g/t gold and 6.1 meters of 3.65 g/t gold. (see figure 3). Numerous other drill holes immediately south of the Royalty Claims returned significant results in multiple zones. These include MRA7178 which assayed 94.5 meters of 5.19 g/t gold including 7.6 meters of 44.68 g/t gold. (see figure 3).

The Transaction
Ely Gold will pay total consideration of US$300,000 to be comprised of US$150,000 in cash payable now and US$150,000 in cash to be paid on January 15, 2021(the "Deferred Payment"). Ely Gold will also issue 1,000,000 common stock warrants (the "Ely Warrants"). The Ely Warrants have a two-year term and will have an exercise price of CDN$1.36. Securities issued under the Ely Warrants will be subject to a four-month hold period. The deferred payment will accrue simple interest at 5%.

Trey Wasser, President & CEO of Ely Gold, commented, "Once again our relationships in Nevada have provided us with an excellent royalty opportunity. SSR is generating exploration excitement at Trenton Canyon and this royalty purchase places us right in the middle of that action. It also fits our strategy of adding to our portfolio of existing royalty positions in Nevada."

Jerry Baughman, President of Nevada, commented, "The Trenton Canyon Royalty is located on the Battle Mountain-Eureka trend and with its close proximity to infrastructure and a strong operating partner in SSR Mining, provides an excellent royalty value to Ely Gold. This asset is yet another example of our strategy of acquiring or generating royalties that are at or near producing mines. This transaction is a testament to our ability to make third-party royalty purchases due to our long-standing relationships throughout Nevada."
