'The recent election in Ecuador, held on October 15, 2023, was a major moment not just in the country’s politics but also for its economic health, particularly the mining sector. Daniel Noboa, the newly elected president, is the son of a well-known banana magnate and his win is widely regarded as a favourable development for the mining industry. He defeated his opponent in a political climate that had investors, both domestic and international, keeping a watchful eye on the possible effects on extractive industries in the country.
Focus on Extractivism in the New Administration



'The Noboa administration is anticipated to lay a strong emphasis on extractivism during the first 100 days in office. Extractivism is an economic model based on the principle that the exploitation of natural resources like oil, gas, and minerals is crucial for national development. Ecuador is a nation rich in these resources, boasting some of Latin America’s most significant deposits of gold, silver, and copper. Noboa’s approach aligns well with this wealth, fostering a setting that could fuel economic growth through natural resource extraction, and he has placed this at the forefront of his plan to close the fiscal deficit in the country.

From 2018 to 2020, Canada spearheaded foreign direct investment (FDI) in Ecuador, with a focus on large-scale mining projects. Mining is one of the key industries in Ecuador, and this trend of foreign investment is likely to continue, perhaps even more so under Noboa’s pro-business administration. His win comes at a critical juncture when four major mining projects are slated to begin production by the end of 2025, initially set into motion during the term of his predecessor, Guillermo Lasso.

Though there is plenty of optimism, it’s important to note that the mining sector in Ecuador is not without its hurdles. Opposition from local communities, coupled with environmental concerns and stringent regulations, present some challenges. Despite these obstacles, the government appears committed to fostering growth in the sector and is actively working to attract more foreign investment.'

Mr. Caldwell also commented:
"As a dedicated long-term shareholder since 2016, I too am disappointed in our current share price even though the Company is currently in the strongest position it has ever been. It is important to note that the immaterial level of trading activity in our shares that has corresponded with a decline in our share price does not reflect the intrinsic value of our underlying assets. I firmly believe the fundamental value of our shares far exceeds their current market price, and I am fully committed, alongside the SolGold team, to ensuring a successful outcome."

This announcement was approved for release by Scott Caldwell - CEO.

Recent Trading

As part of our ongoing shareholder engagement efforts, we have had numerous discussions with institutional and retail shareholders. Most of our shareholders are long-term investors with only a small percentage actively trading. Over the past six months, the average daily traded volume was only 0.1% of the SolGold shares outstanding. To put this in perspective, on average, it would take over 10 full trading days to trade only 1% of SolGold shares (assuming the same shares are not being recycled). Given our shareholder concentration impacting the illiquidity of our shares, an immaterial amount of shares traded has a relatively material impact on our share price. Similar to last year when an institution sold down its position and impacted the share price for over 6 months, in the past months another institution is understood to be liquidating their market positions which includes SolGold.

Outlined below are the holdings of our major shareholders and CEO:


Reported Holdings (Over 3%) & CEO Number of Shares % of Outstanding Shares
BHP Billiton Holdings Limited 310,965,736 10%
Newcrest Mining Limited 309,309,996 10%
DGR Global Ltd 204,151,800 7%
Jiangxi Copper Company Limited 180,753,608 6%
Cornerstone / SolGold Canada Inc. 157,141,000 5%
Maxit Capital LP / D. Bob Sangha 153,366,663 5%
Tenstar Trading Limited 121,002,393 4%
Nicholas Mather (Director) 89,746,710 3%
Scott Caldwell (CEO) 19,407,244 1%
Total 1,545,845,150 51%

Neonatal sepsis

Gentamycin is commonly used in intensive care units for babies affected by serious bacterial infections. Newborns with infections such as sepsis require immediate treatment, and culturing bacteria from samples can take days meaning that there is insufficient time to identify the precise bacteria that is causing the infection and match it to a targeted antibiotic.

The longer an infant with sepsis waits before antibiotics are administered, the lower their chances of survival. Because of this, broad-spectrum antibiotics need to be administered within 60 minutes of admission with suspected sepsis.

An alternative type of broad-spectrum antibiotic is available but it is associated with increased antibiotic resistance, so gentamycin is the first choice unless the patient is known to carry the MT-RNR1 variant.

BOOHOO FACES £100 MILLION MODERN DAY SLAVERY CLASS ACTION LAW SUIT FROM INVESTORS
=================================================================================

Shareholders in Boohoo PLC are seeking financial compensation after more than £1 Billion was wiped from the retailer's market value

The fast-fashion retailer's shares have fallen by 85% during the last five years

Sovereign wealth funds and local councils are among a group of professional investors plotting a £100 Million lawsuit against Boohoo PLC and its Directors after the allegations of modern day slavery wiped more than £1 Billion from the company’s value.

In July 2020, Boohoo PLC was accused of modern day slavery after it emerged that garment workers at factories in Leicester, UK, were being paid far below the National Minimum Wage.

Excessive greed on every side.

In addition to ore-sorting testwork, the following Feasibility Study components have also been completed:

Headframe structural modelling and refurbishment;
Schedule and costing for the refurbishment and recommissioning of New Cooks Kitchen and New Roskear shafts;
Televiewer investigations and geotechnical rock testing to confirm known historical structural and rock mass property data;
Conceptual numerical modelling of the proposed underground mining methods and stope designs. Back analysis supports historical operating data. Ground conditions and excavation stability are expected to be very good;
Phase 1 of the metallurgical testwork programme (mineralogy, physical competency, characterisation and gravity response testwork). The gravity response results are very good and confirm previous operational results;
Concept engineering on paste backfill options and sighter testwork; and
Ground investigations for the new mineral processing plant.

The following Feasibility Study components are currently underway:



Mineral processing plant design, layout and capital cost study, incorporating the results of the metallurgical testwork programme reported today and potential future throughput expansions;
Underground mine design and optimisation using the latest South Crofty Mineral Resource Estimate published in September 2023 (see news release dated September 13, 2023);
A mine ventilation study, underground infrastructure design and hoisting analysis;
A Feasibility Study level engineering design for the paste backfill plant;
Hydrogeology, environmental, social, marketing and closure studies; and
AMC Mining Consultants has been appointed to independently review and compile the Feasibility Study with initial gap analysis and site visits completed.
