Toronto, Ontario, July 17, 2023 - InvestorsHub
NewsWire -- New Break Resources Ltd. ("New
Break" or the "Company") (CSE:
NBRK) is pleased to announce that
the Company has further increased the land position at its Moray
property ("Moray") to 8,311 hectares from 5,354
hectares. Moray is located approximately 49 km south of
Timmins, Ontario and 32 km northwest of the Young-Davidson gold
mine, operated by Alamos Gold Inc. Since March 1, 2023, New
Break has increased its property position at Moray by 6,455
hectares through staking and acquisitions (see also news releases
dated March 15, 2023 and May 15, 2023).

The new claims cover approximately 2,957 hectares located in Zavitz
Township, Ontario (dark green area), including 1,446 hectares which
were acquired by New Break at a cost of $3,350 from the Ontario
Ministry of Mines when the ground became open for staking.
The additional 1,511 hectares are being acquired pursuant to a
mining claim acquisition agreement (the "Agreement") entered into by New Break
with two arm's length individuals (the "Vendors").
Under the terms of the Agreement, the Vendors will receive a cash
payment of $10,000 and will be issued 300,000 common shares of New
Break (the "Consideration Shares") at closing in
exchange for 100% ownership in the Property, which shall also be
royalty free. The Consideration Shares are subject to an
escrow arrangement from which 50% of the Consideration Shares will
be released four months and one day following closing and 50% six
(6) months from closing. All cash payments and issuances of
Consideration Shares will be split 50% and 50% corresponding to the
respective ownership percentages of the Vendors. The
acquisition of the Property is subject to the approval of the
Canadian Securities Exchange.
The newly acquired ground is not subject to any area of influence
requirement and is automatically added to ground covered by the
October 22, 2021, Memorandum of Understanding between New Break and
the Matachewan and Mattagami First Nations.
In addition, the Vendors have agreed to invest a minimum of $20,000
in the next hard dollar private placement conducted by New
Break.
Michael Farrant, President and CEO of New Break stated, "We are
extremely happy to have been able to expand our property position
at Moray relatively inexpensively and entirely royalty free.
In just over four months we have expanded Moray by 6,455 hectares,
which gives us greater opportunity to evaluate Moray from a camp
perspective, building on the exploration advances already made by
our technical team. We have already begun identifying new
targets and mineralization on the ground acquired in May
2023." Mr. Farrant also noted, "Our work at Moray in no way
diminishes our excitement for our Nunavut properties, in particular
the Sundog gold project and Esker claim. However, with a much
shorter exploration field season in Nunavut, Moray gives us an
excellent project in the prolific Abitibi region of Ontario that
hosts both gold and base metal potential, which can be explored all
year round. We remain focused on advancing our entire
portfolio of projects and believe this is the best strategy for
creating value for our shareholders."

of Mines that New Break has been accepted to participate in the

incurred from April 1, 2023 to February 15, 2024. The Company
expects to confirm the details of its participation in the coming
days.
