ALG Algold Resources Ltd

(All amounts are in US$ unless otherwise indicated.)

ALGOLD RESOURCES LTD. (TSXV: ALG – “Algold” or the “Corporation”) wishes to amend the existing disclosure regarding its funding arrangement with Wafa Mining & Petroleum SA (“Wafa”) announced on July 13, 2018 and October 9, 2018.

As previously announced, Wafa agreed to invest in Algold’s subsidiary, Société Tijirit Exploitation SA (“Tirex”), a total of $4,200,000. That investment was in the form of a non-demand interest-free advance (the “Advance”) reimbursable only when the Corporation’s Tijirit project generates revenues and would be reimbursed by paying to Wafa a 10% pro-rata share of the funds that might be available from Tirex’s future operating cash flows. Algold had previously announced that the funds owing in connection with the Advance constituted a private placement and asset purchase price.

In consideration of the value received from Wafa in connection with the Advance, Algold agreed to issue to Wafa, as bonus shares, 883,747 common shares of Algold (the “Shares”) and transfer to Wafa a 10% interest in Tirex (the “Tirex Interest”), upon full receipt. The fair value allocated to the Shares, based on the October 8, 2018 closing price of CDN$0.47, was CDN$415,361.

To date, Algold has received a total of $3,500,000 from Wafa and anticipates receiving the final payment of $700,000 in April 2019. The Shares have been issued, whereas the transfer of the Tirex Interest will be completed upon the receipt of the final payment of the Advance.

The Advance remains subject to the approval of the TSXV.

The Advance is being used to fund exploration work, for working capital and for general corporate purposes.

Algold also announces that it has entered into an agreement party with a service provider, which will maintain its drilling team and equipment on standby until the Corporation is ready to resume its exploration program. Under the agreement, Algold will pay a monthly fee of $26,000 in common shares at a price equal to their five-day volume-weighted average price as of the last day of each month. This agreement will remain in effect until one of the parties terminates it, which either may do after July 2019. Each issuance will be subject to the approval of the TSXV

Additionally, Teranga Gold (Australia) Pty Ltd (“Teranga”) has agreed to defer a payment of CDN$1,500,000 that would have been due if within 90 days of the Corporation achieving an NI 43 101 compliant mineral resource of 1,000,000 ounces at its Tijirit property. That payment has been deferred for a period of 12 months from the date on which it would otherwise be payable, subject to acceleration upon certain events such as a change of control or a financing in the amount of $20,000,000 or greater. This payment obligation was created under a transaction between the Corporation and Gryphon Minerals Limited (Teranga’s predecessor) announced on October 28, 2015.

Moreover, Algold announces the issuance, subject to final TSXV approval, of 277,711 common shares at a price of CDN $0.17 each in settlement of a debt in the amount of CDN $47,211.

Finally, Algold also announces that it has amended its Deferred Share Units Plan (the “DSU Plan”) to increase the number of shares reserved for issuance under the DSU Plan from 6,500,000 to 15,000,000, and to expand the scope of eligibility to the DSU Plan to include all directors, officers, employees and other persons who provide ongoing services to Algold and its affiliates. The amendments were previously approved by Algold shareholders at the annual shareholders meeting held on June 28, 2018.
