Outback Applies for Additional Exploration Licence; Yeungroon Property

Vancouver, British Columbia – July 27, 2021 – Outback Goldfields Corp. (the “Company” or “Outback”) (CSE: OZ) is pleased to report that it has applied for an additional exploration license, central and contiguous to its Yeungroon property, Victorian Goldfields.

“This newly available Exploration Licence is strategically centered on an eight kilometer corridor along the prospective Avoca Fault system and is contiguous with our existing Yeungroon licenses. This corridor contains numerous historic workings centered on gold-bearing quartz-reefs. These documented gold occurrences are hosted in prospective rocks of the Bendigo zone. Once granted, the new Exploration Licence will be systematically evaluated,” commented Chris Donaldson, CEO.

Exploration Licence Application

• Exploration licence (EL007701) comprises 3,700 hectares centered on the regionally prospective Avoca Fault system.
• EL007701 covers numerous reef-hosted gold occurrences over a 3 km north-south trend.
• Once granted, a thorough geological mapping, prospecting and soil sampling program will commence.

Based on a review of all property and regional geological and geophysical data, numerous target areas were defined across the property (see OZ news release dated June 28^th, 2021). Many of these key targets are proximal to- and associated with the Avoca Fault system and associated splays (e.g., Golden Jacket; Figure 1). The area underlying EL0077001 was highlighted as it covers a significant section of the Avoca Fault system with numerous, reef-hosted gold occurrences hosted in Bendigo Zone rocks (Figure 1). Once granted, all occurrences will be systematically evaluated, and the entire Exploration Licence will be the focus of a geological mapping and geochemical sampling program. The application has been registered with the Earth Resources branch of the Victorian state government.

These forward‐looking statements or information relate to, among other things: the development of the Company’s mineral projects, including drilling programs and mobilization of drill rigs; and future mineral exploration and development.

Forward‐looking statements and forward‐looking information relating to any future mineral production, liquidity, enhanced value and capital markets profile of Outback, future growth potential for Outback and its business, and future exploration plans are based on management’s reasonable assumptions, estimates, expectations, analyses and opinions, which are based on management’s experience and perception of trends, current conditions and expected developments, and other factors that management believes are relevant and reasonable in the circumstances, but which may prove to be incorrect. Assumptions have been made regarding, among other things, the price of gold and other metals; no escalation in the severity of the COVID-19 pandemic; costs of exploration and development; the estimated costs of development of exploration projects; Outback’s ability to operate in a safe and effective manner and its ability to obtain financing on reasonable terms. 

These statements reflect Outback’s respective current views with respect to future events and are necessarily based upon a number of other assumptions and estimates that, while considered reasonable by management, are inherently subject to significant business, economic, competitive, political and social uncertainties and contingencies. Many factors, both known and unknown, could cause actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from the results, performance or achievements that are or may be expressed or implied by such forward‐looking statements or forward-looking information and Outback has made assumptions and estimates based on or related to many of these factors. Such factors include, without limitation: the Company's dependence on one mineral project; precious metals price volatility; risks associated with the conduct of the Company's mining activities in Australia; regulatory, consent or permitting delays; risks relating to reliance on the Company's management team and outside contractors; risks regarding mineral resources and reserves; the Company's inability to obtain insurance to cover all risks, on a commercially reasonable basis or at all; currency fluctuations; risks regarding the failure to generate sufficient cash flow from operations; risks relating to project financing and equity issuances; risks and unknowns inherent in all mining projects, including the inaccuracy of reserves and resources, metallurgical recoveries and capital and operating costs of such projects; contests over title to properties, particularly title to undeveloped properties; laws and regulations governing the environment, health and safety; the ability of the communities in which the Company operates to manage and cope with the implications of COVID-19; the economic and financial implications of COVID-19 to the Company; operating or technical difficulties in connection with mining or development activities; employee relations, labour unrest or unavailability; the Company's interactions with surrounding communities and artisanal miners; the Company's ability to successfully integrate acquired assets; the speculative nature of exploration and development, including the risks of diminishing quantities or grades of reserves; stock market volatility; conflicts of interest among certain directors and officers; lack of liquidity for shareholders of the Company; litigation risk; and the factors identified under the caption “Risk Factors” in Outback's management discussion and analysis. Readers are cautioned against attributing undue certainty to forward‐looking statements or forward-looking information. Although Outback has attempted to identify important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially, there may be other factors that cause results not to be anticipated, estimated or intended.
