GITENNES PREPARES FOR WORK ON QUEBEC PROPERTIES, HIRES INVESTOR RELATIONS

Gitennes Exploration Inc. has provided an update on the company's mineral exploration activities in Quebec and the broader plan for 2025 following successful completion of a $1.5-million private placement that has brought strategic new investors into the company.

Gitennes has engaged Martin Demers, PGeo, an independent consulting geologist in Quebec who specialized in Northern Quebec geology and mineral deposits models during the past 25 years, to carry out an immediate desktop assessment of the company's very promising battery metal and gold properties in the province that Gitennes's new management team believes have been underexplored and overlooked for their discovery potential. Mr. Demers is expected to complete his assessment by the end of January and will also provide recommendations for immediate work programs.

While attempting to unlock the potential value of its Quebec mineral assets, Gitennes has been evaluating potential new resource projects as disclosed in previous recent news releases.

Jordan Potts, interim chief executive officer, commented: "We have a highly favourable share structure, an advantage we intend to leverage to the fullest extent, and a new board and management team committed to the immediate and longer-term success of this company both on the ground and in the market. Two thousand twenty-five promises to be an exciting year for Gitennes's shareholders, hence this quick injection of $1.5-million into the company. We are focused and driven to deliver exploration success, a powerful corporate brand and strong value to shareholders."

Gitennes enters into investor relations agreement

Gitennes is also pleased to announce that it has entered into an investor relations agreement dated Jan. 9, 2025, with Chad Levesque Consulting (CLC), an arm's-length party to the company.
