("First Mining") (TSX: FF) for the Vixen Gold Project ("Vixen") announced on September 9, 2021 has closed (see ALX news release dated September 9, 2021). As prescribed by the terms of the option agreement dated September 7, 2021, the Company has received $250,000 in cash and 291,330 common shares of First Mining, which represent the first stage payments due to ALX under the terms of the Vixen option agreement.

Upon completing the first stage of the earn-in, First Mining will hold, through its wholly-owned subsidiary company Gold Canyon Resources Inc.
