This strategic partnership aims to enhance the Company's market presence by providing capital market advice in respect of potential capital market strategies as it relates to all future financings and by reviewing and analyzing strategic opportunities for the Company.

Michael Wekerle's Altitude is coming together with Gene McBurney's ECM Advisors to offer extensive expertise to junior miners poised for success. Together, they represent a significant opportunity for emerging mining companies equipped with promising properties and the vision to thrive in today's evolving landscape.
Michael Wekerle and Gene McBurney are industry veterans whose insights and experience span decades. During their time at Griffiths McBurney Partnership (GMP) established a track record of navigating the complexities of the mining sector, understanding market dynamics, and identifying opportunities that can transform junior miners into market leaders.

This collaboration represents a significant opportunity for emerging mining companies equipped with promising properties and the vision to thrive in today's evolving landscape.
"Heritage is undeniably looking in the right place for a significant discovery in mineral-rich Northwestern Ontario. The region's geological potential is immense, and both the Drayton Black Lake, Contact Bay and Scattergood projects hold the promise of uncovering valuable and key mineral resources.
With the right approach and support, Heritage Mining Ontario Project Portfolio could yield literally tons of mineral wealth. The geological formations in this area are known for their rich deposits, and I believe Heritage Mining is on the verge of something truly transformative. Their commitment and strategic vision make them well-positioned to capitalize on this opportunity." Commented Michael Wekerle, Managing Director, Altitude Capital.
"We are thrilled to welcome both Altitude Capital Advisory and ECM Advisors as strategic partners. Michael Wekerle and Gene McBurney bring a wealth of expertise in supporting junior exploration companies, and their involvement comes at an ideal time as we advance our programs in Northwestern Ontario.

Additionally, we already have supporting interest for approximately C$250,000, including contributions from Altitude Capital, existing insiders, institutions, and high-net-worth individuals. Their confidence in our strategy further solidifies our path forward as we unlock value for our shareholders." Commented Peter Schloo, President, CEO, and Director of Heritage.
