NEWS RELEASE
August 30, 2024
Calgary, August 30, 2024 Whitemud Resources Inc. ("Whitemud" or the "Company") (TSXV
"WMK") provides an operational update.
Whitemud is pleased to provide the following corporate and operational updates.
Whitemud and SAM Holdings have agreed to increase the amount of financing by SAM Holdings,
which was first announced on November 21, 2023, from $7,000,000 to $10,000,000 to fund
additional capital expenditures as well as ongoing operating expenses and general and
administrative costs, with the approval of the TSXV. The interest rate for the interim funding is
5.0% per annum.
An NI 43-101 Technical Report prepared by SLR Consulting (Canada) Ltd. detailing a
Preliminary Economic Assessment of the Wood Mountain Project in Saskatchewan has been
uploaded to SEDAR. The Technical Report offers a broad analysis and review of the Whitemud
kaolin deposit resource, the project and its economics.
Whitemud wishes to advise that commissioning of its flash calciner and ancillary equipment has
been ongoing with startup operational challenges resulting from various mechanical interruptions
as well as a disruption from severe weather conditions experienced the week of August 19, 2024,
causing the plant to be shut down due to a mechanical failure. Repairs to the plant have been
completed and processing of kaolin was reestablished. Initial production rates are being held to
approximately 50% of capacity until plant integrity is stabilized. The first delivery of produced
metakaolin from the redesigned and upgraded flash calciner facility has been made to a
customer.
Whitemud also announces that Mr. Derrick Armstrong was elected to the board of directors at the
annual general meeting held on August 20, 2024. Mr. Armstrong practiced corporate law in
Calgary for 34 years, and at the time of his retirement was the regional head of the Capital
Markets and Corporate departments of Borden Ladner Gervais, a national law firm. He
primarily acted for both public corporations and financing agents in all facets of corporate
financing, including public offerings, restructurings, mergers and acquisitions, corporate
governance and regulatory filings. He sat on policy advisory boards of both the Alberta
Securities Commission and Alberta based stock exchanges and was often a speaker at corporate
and securities seminars. His extensive experience acting for public boards brings an expert focus
to Whitemud's corporate governance practices.
