19.09.2024  |  CNW

TSXV:OIII | OTCQX:OIIIF - O3 Mining

TORONTO, Sept. 19, 2024 - O3 Mining Inc. (TSX.V: OIII; OTCQX: OIIIF) ("O3 Mining" or the "Corporation") is pleased to announce a proposed transaction with SOQUEM Inc. ("SOQUEM"), pursuant to which the Corporation will acquire the Desjardins property (the "Desjardins Property"), located adjacent to the Corporation's Kinebik Project (the "Proposed Transaction"). The Kinebik Project is an important property for the Corporation as it forms an integral part of the Corporation's core exploration strategy and the acquisition of the Desjardins Property will enable the Corporation to further consolidate its presence in the Casa Berardi trend. Please see the news release of O3 Mining dated December 22, 2023 and entitled "O3 Mining Strengthens Presence in the Casa Berardi Trend by Consolidating the Kinebik Project" for additional information regarding prior consolidation of the Kinebik Project.

O3 Mining's President and Chief Executive Officer, Mr. José Vizquerra commented: "We are pleased to further consolidate our presence on the Casa Berardi trend through the acquisition of SOQUEM's Desjardins Property. The Desjardins Property fits well within our current property holdings at the Kinebik Project and will enable our team to conduct additional exploration drilling at Casa Berardi this winter. This aligns well with our core exploration strategy and is an extension of our mission to explore and develop the major geologic faults in Québec. Our exploration success on the Cadillac Break continues a baseline of expertise to continue our strategy along the prolific Casa Berardi trend."

This Proposed Transaction will be completed pursuant to an asset purchase agreement (the "SOQUEM Agreement") dated September 10, 2024 between the Corporation and SOQUEM. Under the terms of the SOQUEM Agreement, the Corporation proposes to acquire 100% of SOQUEM's rights, titles, and interest in and to the Desjardins Property in exchange for $100,000, which purchase price shall be satisfied by the issuance of 98,441 common shares of the Corporation (the "Common Shares") at a deemed issue price of approximately $1.016 per Common Share.

The Common Shares to be issued to SOQUEM pursuant to the SOQUEM Agreement will subject to a hold period of four months and one day from the date of issuance in accordance with applicable Canadian securities laws. The closing of the Proposed Transaction remains subject to the final approval of the TSX Venture Exchange.

On a go-forward basis, O3 Mining will be consolidating the Desjardins Property into the "Kinebik Project".

About the Desjardins Property

The Desjardins Property is located 35 km north of the town of Lebel-sur-Quévillon. Six gold showings have been found on the property, and more than 80 samples (drill core and grab) have returned grades above 1 g/t Au. Regionally, gold grades are related to gold deformation corridors, notably Casa-Berardi and Douay-Cameron, which are important metallotects and host economic deposits such as the Vezza mine. The most promising area on the Desjardins Property is Indice 52, a showing with grades of 4.55 g/t Au over 2.95 m and 6.56 g/t Au over 4.73 m. The zone occurs within the Esther Lake deformation corridor and remains open laterally and at depth. The project is at the exploration drilling stage. A work proposal is available and ready to be implemented in the Indice 52 area.

About the Kinebik Project

The Kinebik property straddles over 40 km of strike along the prolific auriferous Casa Berardi trend, which extends over 400 km in the northern part of the Abitibi Greenstone Belt. Along its length, there are five mining districts including the +5.0M oz Au world-class Casa Berardi deposit, the Douay deposit (3.0M oz Au at 1.1 g/t Au), and the Vezza deposit (0.3M oz Au at 5.6 g/t Au). The Kinebik property is easily accessible all year round through the main roads to Matagami and Chibougamau cities. The Globex property acquired in December 2023 totals 8,220.72 hectares and covers a number of prospective structures. One of them, the Cameron Lake deformation zone, is a structural zone up to 5.7 km wide and forming part of the wider Casa Berardi break corridor. There are three deposits directly west of Cameron, namely Discovery (0.5M oz Au), Flordin (0.3M oz Au) and Cartwright (0.03M oz Au), all of which are hosted by the Cameron Lake deformation zone. The Kinebik block, acquired from New Origin in May 2023, sums 14,636.49 hectares and covers over 30 km of strike along the Casa Berardi trend, 150 km east of the Casa Berardi mine. The Desjardins Property covers a total area of 2,186.76 hectares. The Kinebik Project covers the Casa Berardi break and adjacent iron formations, the same formations present at the Casa Berardi mine. The three blocks that the Corporation acquired plus subsequent staking in open areas total 30,694.76 hectares and offer promising discovery potential based on their strategic geological location, confirmed gold occurrences, and limited historical drilling.
