About Canamex

Canamex is a public listed company registered in British Columbia, Canada, trading on the Canadian Securities Exchange (CSE: CSQ) and is engaged in pre-development of the Bruner gold and silver project in the prolific gold jurisdiction of Nye County, Nevada. The region is home to several producing and past-producing mines along the Walker Lane Trend. Canamex completed a positive Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA) on the Bruner project in 2016. Based on additional drilling conducted on the property, the company completed an updated PEA in 2018, which increased the resources and improved the economics of the project.

The PEA is based primarily on indicated resources, but also included about 10% inferred resources that are considered too speculative geologically to have the economic considerations applied to them that would enable them to be categorized as mineral reserves, and there is no certainty that the preliminary economic assessment will be realized.

Canamex is planning to move the Bruner project forward into permitting and development using the proceeds from a gold stream forward sale to MetalStream Limited. Further information is available at https://www.canamexgold.com/

Projects that proceed to construction based solely upon a PEA have a higher degree of risk associated with them than projects that have gone through a feasibility study of mineral reserves. Canamex is not basing its decision to proceed to permitting and construction on a feasibility study. Feasibility level engineering will proceed in parallel with project permitting such that both should be completed simultaneously to allow project construction to commence after feasibility level engineering has been completed.
