Morien Reports on Continuing Developments at the Donkin Mine

16.11.2023  |  GlobeNewswire

HALIFAX, Nov. 16, 2023 - Morien Resources Corp. ("Morien" or the "Company") (TSX-V:MOX), today provides an update on the Donkin Coal Mine ("Donkin" or the "Mine") in Nova Scotia, owned and operated by Kameron Collieries ("Kameron"), upon which Morien has a 2% to 4% royalty interest.

The Nova Scotia Department of Labour, Skills and Immigration ("DOL"), a provincial regulator for the Mine, held a press conference yesterday afternoon to report on the findings of an independent engineer contracted by DOL in September to complete a technical review of the Donkin Mine. The following news release from DOL provides additional information:

Yesterday's press conference follows Kameron's decision on November 10, 2023, to lay off its remaining hourly workforce at the Mine and to place the operation into an idled state with no timeline to resume operations. This decision was made in consideration of a 118-day long Stop Work Order ("SWO"), in effect since July 15, 2023, put in place by DOL in response to a roof fall incident on July 15, 2023, where no one was injured, nor any equipment damaged.

Morien is of the view that a potential return to production will not be imminent and that this is a complex and evolving situation which will involve satisfying the conditions to lift the SWO, and also resolution of some regulatory and related matters to return the mine to long-term, stable production. Morien will continue to provide updates to its shareholders, stakeholders, and investors as to the status of operations at the Mine as they become available.

Forward-Looking Statements

Some of the statements in this news release may constitute "forward-looking information" as defined under applicable securities laws. These statements reflect Morien's current expectations of future revenues and business prospects and opportunities and are based on information currently available to Morien. Morien cautions that actual performance will be affected by a number of factors, many of which are beyond its control, and that future events and results may vary substantially from what Morien currently foresees. Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in forward-looking statements include risks and uncertainties described in documents filed by Morien with the Canadian securities regulators on SEDAR+ (www.sedarplus.ca) from time to time. Morien cautions that its royalty revenue will be based on production by third party property owners and operators who will be responsible for determining the manner and timing for the properties forming part of Morien's royalty portfolio. These third party owners and operators are also subject to risk factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those predicted herein including: volatility in financial markets or general economic conditions; capital requirements and the need for additional financing; fluctuations in the rates of exchange for the currencies of Canada and the United States; prices for commodities including coal and aggregate; unanticipated changes in production, mineral reserves and mineral resources, metallurgical recoveries and/or exploration results; changes in regulations and unpredictable political or economic developments; loss of key personnel; labour disputes; and ineffective title to mineral claims or property. There are other business risks and hazards associated with mineral exploration, development and mining. Although Morien believes that the forward-looking information contained herein is based on reasonable assumptions (including assumptions relating to economic, market and political conditions, the Company's working capital requirements and the accuracy of information supplied by the operators of the properties in which the Company has a royalty interest), readers cannot be assured that actual results will be consistent with such statements. Morien expressly disclaims any intention or obligation to update or revise any forward-looking information in this news release, whether as a result of new information, events or otherwise, except in accordance with applicable securities laws. All dollar values discussed herein are in Canadian dollars. Any financial outlook or future-oriented financial information in this news release, as defined by applicable securities laws, has been approved by management of Morien as of the date of this news release. Such financial outlook or future-oriented financial information is provided for the purpose of providing information about management's current expectations and plans relating to the future. Readers are cautioned that such outlook or information should not be used for purposes other than for which it is disclosed in this news release.

Third-Party Information

Except where otherwise stated, the disclosure in this press release relating to properties and operations on the properties in which the Company holds royalty interests is based primarily on information disclosed by the owners or operators of these properties publicly or directly to the Company and information available in the public domain. As a royalty holder, the Company has limited, if any, access to properties included in its royalty portfolio. The Company is dependent on the operators of the properties to provide information to the Company or on publicly available information to prepare required disclosure pertaining to properties and operations on the properties on which the Company holds royalty interests and generally has limited or no ability to independently verify such information.
