Winter Olympic Games Extension

5 November 2021

Griffin Mining Limited ("Griffin" or the "Company") is very pleased to announce that it has received notification and signed documentation from the City and County regulatory authorities that vital operating supplies will be allowed to be delivered to the Caijiaying Mine Site until midnight on the 31(st) December 2021, the only mine granted such an accommodation in Hebei Province.

As is customary practice for the Caijiaying Mine, mining operations will cease during the Chinese New Year holiday period and the cessation will be slightly extended into the first quarter of 2022 due to the Winter Olympic and Paralympic Games and re-open on the 14(th) March 2022.

Chairman Mladen Ninkov commented, "The permission granted by the various levels of government in the People's Republic of China to the continuing operations by the Company in this high profile period is very much appreciated and is an acknowledgement of the special relations enjoyed by all stakeholders in the Caijiaying Mine and best ESG practices implemented by the Company. Needless to say, my thanks go out to all concerned, particularly our senior western and Chinese management who strived so hard to achieve this result."
