Toronto, May 14, 2021 - Pasofino Gold Ltd. (TSXV: VEIN) (OTCQB: EFRGF) (FSE: N07) ("Pasofino" or the "Company") announces that it has amended the terms of the agreement with QC Copper and Gold Inc. (TSXV: QCCU) (OTCQB: QCCUF) ("QC Copper"), whereby Pasofino is selling its 50% interest in the advanced-stage Roger Gold-Copper Project (the "Project"), located in Quebec's prolific Abitibi Greenstone Belt, to QC Copper (the "Transaction").

Pursuant to the amendment, the total purchase price under the Transaction remains the same, however the timing for payment of some of the share consideration has been deferred.

The balance of the common shares (being 4,350,000 common shares of QC Copper) will only be issued if a new NI 43-101 technical report ("NI 43-101 report") is produced on the Project within 6 months of the closing date of the Transaction and such NI 43-101 report demonstrates a resource calculation that is at least equal to or greater than that contained in the 43-101 report dated October 9, 2018, filed by the Company under its profile at www.sedar.com.
