Mr. McElroy is a professional geologist with over 38 years of mining industry experience, both in operational and corporate roles, having worked with major, mid-tier, and junior mining and exploration companies.

He has played a key role in the discoveries of numerous world-class uranium and gold orebodies, several of which have been advanced to development and mining operations. His accomplishments have earned widespread recognition, including being named The Northern Miner's "Mining Person of the Year" (2013), and receiving PDAC's prestigious "Bill Dennis Award" (2014).
Mr. McElroy holds a Bachelor of Science degree with a specialization in Geology from the University of Alberta, and is a registered professional geologist in Saskatchewan, British Columbia, Nunavut, and the Northwest Territories.
"I am excited to be joining Apollo as its new President and CEO at such a pivotal time in the Company's growth and development ," said Mr. McElroy. " Apollo is backed by a strong portfolio of silver assets and a highly capable team with a proven track record. I'm eager to build on that foundation and drive the Company toward its next phase of growth. I see a major opportunity to unlock significant value for shareholders as the Company advances towards becoming a leading silver developer in the Americas ."
Mr. Bowering added, " I am looking forward to working closely with Ross. Our ability to attract someone with Ross' expertise, energy and track record of value creation speaks volumes about the opportunity at Apollo. I believe he will have a transformative impact on the Company's future and all stakeholders will benefit greatly ."
Grant of Options
In connection with his appointment, Mr. McElroy has been granted an aggregate of 2,500,000 incentive stock options (the " Options ") pursuant to the Company's Omnibus Incentive Plan. The Options are exercisable at a price of $0.315 per common share, have a term of five years, and will vest over a 24-month period: one-third on the grant date, one-third after 12 months, and the balance after 24 months.

Halcones Precious Metals Corp. (TSX-V: HPM) (the " Company " or " Halcones ") announces it has closed, on an upsized basis, its previously-announced non-brokered private placement of units (the " Offering ") of the Company (the " Units ") pursuant to which the Company issued 10,204,153 Units at a price of $0.07 per Unit for aggregate gross proceeds of $714,290.71. Each Unit is comprised of one common share in the capital of the Company (" Common Share ") and one-half of one Common Share purchase warrant (each whole warrant, a " Warrant "). Each Warrant entitles the holder to purchase one Common Share at an exercise price of $0.10 per Common Share for a period of 36 months following the date hereof.
The Company plans to use the net proceeds of the Offering to continue the exploration work on its Polaris Project as well as for general corporate working capital purposes.
Insiders of the Company participated in the Offering and were issued an aggregate of 2,571,428 Units.

In connection with the Offering, the Company paid cash finder's fees of $9,099.30 and issued 129,990 finder's warrants (the " Finder Warrants ") to eligible finders. Each Finder Warrant entitles the holder to acquire one Common Share at a price of $0.07 for a period of 36 months following the date hereof. The Offering remains subject to the final approval of the TSX Venture Exchange.
