ALLEGIANT ADVANCES PERMITTING ON EASTSIDE DISTRICT

Allegiant Gold Ltd. has provided an update on the issuance receipt of the eagle take permit by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service.

Allegiant has selected a vendor to provide compensatory mitigation to meet eagle incidental take permit conditions at the Eastside exploration project. A mitigation credit from the Eagle ILF program provides one pole retrofitted to provide 30 years of avoided loss to bald and/or golden eagles in the appropriate flyway (Eagle management unit).

Peter Gianulis, chief executive officer of Allegiant, commented: "This is an important and final step in achieving year-round exploration and drilling at the McIntosh zone within the Eastside district. We look forward to now advancing drilling within the McIntosh zone and, in particular, the targeting of our high-grade discovery. We will be updating the market in the near future regarding our future plans."

USFWS eagle take permit

The eagle take permit, issued by USFWS, is a critical regulatory authorization required for activities that may incidentally result in the disturbance or harm of bald and golden eagles, which are protected under federal law. This permit is essential for companies like Allegiant that operate in areas where eagles are known to frequent as it allows for lawful management and mitigation of potential impacts on these majestic birds and their habitats.

In September, 2020, Allegiant started its review of the permit requirements and costs for the eagle take permit. This phase involved meticulous consideration and analysis to gain a clear understanding of the permit process. This rigorous phase culminated in March, 2021, when Allegiant formally submitted the eagle take permit application to USFWS. Subsequently, in January, 2022, Allegiant engaged the consultant company Stantec to commence work on the environmental assessment and eagle conservation plan as prerequisites to obtaining the eagle take permit.

After nearly three years of dedicated efforts and collaboration, Allegiant has secured the permit, which was finalized and issued on April 16, 2024. The effective dates of the permit will be from Dec. 15, 2024, to Dec. 14, 2029.

Allegiant engages ICP Securities Inc. for automated market-making services

Allegiant also announces that it has engaged the services of ICP to provide automated market-making services, including use of its proprietary algorithm, ICP Premium, in compliance with the policies and guidelines of the TSX Venture Exchange and other applicable legislation. ICP will be paid a monthly fee of $7,500, plus applicable taxes.

There are no performance factors contained in the agreement and no stock options or other compensation in connection with the engagement. ICP and its clients may acquire an interest in the securities of the company in the future.

ICP is an arm's-length party to the company. ICP's market-making activity will be primarily to correct temporary imbalances in the supply and demand of the company's shares. ICP will be responsible for the costs it incurs in buying and selling the company's shares, and no third party will be providing funds or securities for the market-making activities.
