I would like to thank Ms. Edwige Gourdet for her contributions to the Company as our CFO during our transition from a private to a public company, and we wish her every success in her future endeavours."

Change of Auditor

At the request of Burin Gold, BDO Canada LLP (the "Former Auditor") resigned as the auditor of the Company effective January 6, 2022 and the Board of Directors of the Company appointed Davidson & Company LLP (the "Successor Auditor") as the new auditor of the Company effective January 6, 2022, until the close of the Company's next annual meeting of shareholders. The Company would like to extend its appreciation to BDO Canada LLP for its tenure as auditor of the Company.

There were no reservations or modified opinions in the Former Auditor’s audit report for the Company's two most recent financial years and ending at the date of the resignation of the Former Auditor.
