VANCOUVER, Oct. 21, 2024 - Metalla Royalty & Streaming Ltd. ("Metalla") (NYSE American: MTA) (TSXV: MTA) is pleased to report select portfolio updates:

  • Gosselin (1.35% NSR) - Drilling has successfully outlined extensions of the Gosselin Zone outside of the current resource pit shell, including mineralization at depth in between Côté and Gosselin deposits.
  • Endeavor (4.0% NSR) - Funding & offtake secured to fund Endeavor restart; recent drilling provides upside, reiterated guidance for H1-2025 production.
  • La Guitarra (2.0% NSR) - Mining ramp up rates continue to be met, with commercial production expected before year end.
  • Joaquin (2.0% NSR) - New operator outlines comprehensive exploration program to boost resource estimate and publish maiden JORC (2012) MRE.

GOSSELIN (1.35% NSR)

Metalla holds a 1.35% net smelter return ("NSR") royalty interest on IAMGOLD Corporation's (NYSE: IAG)("IAMGOLD") Gosselin project ("Gosselin") and the northern portion of the Côté mine in Gogama, Canada.

On October 15, 2024, IAMGOLD announced diamond drill results outlining the successful extension of mineralization outside of the Gosselin December 31, 2023 mineral resource pit shell. Key extensions have been intersected south and west of the Gosselin West Breccia, and at depth between the Côté and Gosselin West Breccia in an attempt to connect the two zones. Highlights of the Gosselin drill program include:

  • 0.96 g/t gold over 368.8 meters
  • 2.7 g/t gold over 235 meters
  • 1.1 g/t gold over 357 meters
  • 1.19 g/t gold over 201 meters

Renaud Adams, President and Chief Executive Officer of IAMGOLD, commented: "We believe that Côté is just the start of what will be a mining district. The exploration results today from Gosselin continue to demonstrate the potential for the Côté and Gosselin Zones to connect, in addition to highlighting that the overall size and scope of these zones have yet to be defined - as both Côté and Gosselin remain open at depth in all directions."

On February 15, 2024, IAMGOLD announced the updated Gosselin mineral resource estimate of 4.4 M Indicated gold ounces at 0.85 g/t and 3.0 M Inferred gold ounces at 0.75 g/t. Exploration drilling for the remainder of 2024 will continue to target mineralization beneath both Gosselin and Côté.

Technical and Third-Party Information

Notes:

  1. AgEq is defined by Polymetals in their October 9, 2024 Press Release.
  2. Figure 2 depicts an area that is larger than the coverage of the Metalla royalty, and is provided for informational purposes.
  3. AgEq is defined by Unico in their August 20, 2024 Press Release. This Mineral Resource estimate covers an area that is larger than the coverage of the Metalla royalty, and is provided for informational purposes.
  4. Pan American Silver Corp. prepared a more recent Technical Report and Feasibility Study in January 2018, however, this report was focused on an underground mine at the Moarocha vein, which is not the subject of the Metalla Royalty.

Metalla has limited, if any, access to the properties on which Metalla holds a royalty, stream or other interest. Metalla is dependent on (i) the operators of the mines or properties and their qualified persons to provide technical or other information to Metalla, or (ii) publicly available information to prepare disclosure pertaining to properties and operations on the mines or properties on which Metalla holds a royalty, stream or other interest, and generally has limited or no ability to independently verify such information. Although Metalla does not have any knowledge that such information may not be accurate, there can be no assurance that such third-party information is complete or accurate. Some information publicly reported by operators may relate to a larger property than the area covered by Metalla's royalty, stream or other interests. Metalla's royalty, stream or other interests can cover less than 100% and sometimes only a portion of the publicly reported mineral reserves, resources and production of a property.

Unless otherwise indicated, the technical and scientific disclosure contained or referenced in this alert, ‎including any ‎references to mineral resources or mineral reserves, was prepared in accordance with Canadian ‎NI 43-101‎, which differs significantly from the requirements of the U.S. Securities and ‎Exchange Commission (the "SEC") ‎applicable to U.S. domestic issuers. Accordingly, the scientific and technical ‎information contained or referenced in this alert may not be comparable to similar information made ‎public by U.S. companies subject to the reporting and ‎disclosure requirements of the SEC.

‎"Inferred mineral resources" have a great amount of uncertainty as to their existence and great uncertainty as to ‎their ‎economic and legal feasibility. It cannot be assumed that all or any part of an inferred mineral resource will ‎ever be ‎upgraded to a higher category. Historical results or feasibility models presented herein are not guarantees ‎or expectations of ‎future performance.‎
