Falco Resources Invites Citizens to an Immersive Workshop on the Acoustic and Vibratory Climate Ahead of the Imminent Announcement of a BAPE

Falco Resources Ltd. (TSX-V: FPC) ( "Falco" or the "Corporation" ) invites the citizens of Rouyn-Noranda to an immersive public workshop where they will be able to meet acoustic and vibration experts, experience sound and vibration simulations, share their concerns and participate in the discussion on issues related to the sound and vibratory climate.

This workshop will be held on Wednesday, July 17 th , from 6 p.m. at the Centre des Congrès de Rouyn-Noranda . In addition to the simulation stations, a presentation, followed by a question period, led by acoustics experts will begin at 7 p.m. The activity will be a unique opportunity to learn more about the sound and vibration phenomena that surround us.

Martin Duclos, Manager, Environment and Community Relations, said: " The concerns expressed by the neighborhood surrounding the project regarding sounds and vibrations are legitimate. We recognize that there may be a specific cohabitation challenge during the construction period and that we wish to address it with them ."

As a reminder, Falco's entire team is available to answer the population's questions, whether concerning Falco's Horne 5 project or the imminent holding of a public hearing by the "Bureau des audiences publiques en environnement" (BAPE).

In this regard, Falco welcomes the organization of a planning workshop, which was held on July 7 th in Rouyn-Noranda under the theme: How to fully participate in the BAPE of Falco's Horne 5 project. This activity, initiated by the "Conseil régional de l'environnement de l'Abitibi-Témiscamingue" (CREAT), whose main mandate is to ensure consultation between all stakeholders in Abitibi-Témiscamingue around environmental issues, and Mining Watch Canada, the "Coalition Québec meilleur mine" and the "Comité citoyen de protection de l'Esker", is an additional tool that helps to promote full citizen participation in the BAPE.

Falco encourages citizens and organizations to actively participate in the upcoming BAPE process, either by asking questions or sharing their opinions through briefs and comments on the project. The Corporation is convinced that significant citizen participation in this democratic process is essential since a substantive discussion must take place on the challenges specific to the socio-environmental and economic context of Rouyn-Noranda.

Hélène Cartier, Vice-President, Environment, Sustainable Development and Community Relations, declared: " We hope that people will participate in large numbers in the upcoming BAPE by asking their questions and submitting briefs. Their commitment is important to us and fits with our vision of building a mine with the community and serving the community. We have a role to play in the future of Rouyn-Noranda and we intend to be a catalyst for positive change. "

We invite the population to come and meet our team at Espace Falco, located at 157, avenue Principale, in Rouyn-Noranda.

Vertex Minerals Limited  Underground Development and Production Drill Rig Purchased

Vertex Minerals Limited Underground Development and Production Drill Rig Purchased

Perth, Australia (ABN Newswire) - Vertex Minerals Limited (ASX:VTX) (OTCMKTS:VTXXF) is pleased to announce the purchase of an Epiroc Boomer TD1 development and production rig to be incorporated into the underground fleet at the Reward Gold Mine. The drill rig is specifically designed for high-speed drilling in narrow vein mining in cross sections up to 23m2.

Vertex has purchased the TD1 Jumbo so it can be used in development work and undertake production drilling.

This machine comes with a conversion kit, so that it can be rapidly converted from a face drilling machine to a long hole production rig, called a "combi".

The new base model TD1 machine is sitting in Kalgoorlie and will undergo some refitting to meet Vertex's specification. Additional production and development drill rigs are currently under review but will have longer lead times than the TD1.

Vertex Director and Mining Engineer commented.

"The TD1 Boomer is the perfect machine for the size development that we have planned for the Reward Gold Mine. Buying a new Boomer with a split feed is ideal for achieving high rates of development advance while ensuring we can install the highest quality ground support efficiently. We look forward to working closely with Epiroc and their team. Their workshop facilities are conveniently located a short 124km from Hill End in Orange and will help Vertex achieve high levels of availability."
