Goldseek Resources Inc. Transitions to Abitibi Metals Corp. to Create a Metals Company in the Abitibi Greenstone Belt

Abitibi Metals Corp. (“Abitibi” or the “Company”) (CSE:AMQ) (OTC:GSKKF) (FSE:4KG), a Quebec-focused mineral acquisition and exploration Company, is pleased to announce that it has changed its name from “Goldseek Resources Inc.” to “Abitibi Metals Corp.” (the “Name Change”). The Company’s trading symbol on the Canadian Securities Exchange has changed to AMQ effective today (October 16, 2023); the Company’s trading symbols on the OTC Markets (“OTC”) and Frankfurt Stock Exchange (“FSE”) will remain unchanged.

The Company’s CUSIP and ISIN identifiers have been updated as a result of the name change: CUSIP 00367M108 and ISIN CA00367M1086. Beneficial shareholders will have their common shares updated automatically. Registered holders will not be required to transmit their common shares under the old name but may contact the Company’s transfer agent, Marelli Trust Company Limited if they wish to exchange their common share certificates / DRS advices for new certificates / DRS advices in the new name.

The Company’s management team feels that the new name more accurately reflects the vision of establishing a diversified metals company in Quebec. With a primary focus on the mineral-rich Abitibi greenstone belt, the Company is currently actively evaluating opportunities to acquire an advanced-stage copper and/or gold project. Specifically, the company is seeking to acquire a project with the following characteristics:

- Located in Quebec with good access and supporting mining infrastructure.

- Has a current resource, historical resource or near resource with existing well-defined targets that can produce a 43-101 resource estimate within one year.

- Focused on copper and gold with district-scale growth potential.

Investors are cautioned that there is no assurance that negotiations involving any potential acquisition will conclude successfully.

Jonathon Deluce, CEO and President of Abitibi Metals, commented: “We are excited to announce our name change from Goldseek Resources to Abitibi Metals Corp. This new name better aligns with our team’s vision and underscores our renewed exploration focus and direction as a Company.

With the rising demand for copper due to the clean energy transition, Abitibi is focused on acquiring and developing an asset with significant growth potential to meet this future demand. In early August, the U.S. underscored copper’s essential role by including it in its critical mineral list. Similarly, Canada has signaled its intent to prioritize the development of critical minerals in the coming years, highlighting the pressing need for further development.

Our goal is to establish a significant metals company in the Abitibi Greenstone belt, centering on gold and copper. A number of project reviews have already been completed, and the Company looks forward to keeping shareholders up to date on the progress of its strategy during the coming weeks.”
