Gold Mountain Mining Corp. Signs Mining Contract With Nhwelmen-Lake LP

Gold Mountain Mining Corp. (TSXV:GMTN) ("Gold Mountain" or the "Company") is pleased to announce a signed definitive agreement with Nhwelmen-Lake LP ("Nhwelmen-Lake"), for contract mining services (the "Mining Contract") at the Elk Gold Project

HIGHLIGHTS:

• Gold Mountain will leverage the experience and expertise of Nhwelmen-Lake for mining and ore hauling services at the Elk Gold Property.
• Nhwelmen-Lake will be paid a fixed price per tonne mined at a price that's in line with the Company's Preliminary Economic Assessment (the "PEA") metrics over the first three years, which is determined based on the planned production rate, mined volumes, haulage distances and equipment productivity.
• The Mining Contract is for the life of mine while the price schedule carries a three-year term and gives Gold Mountain confidence in its forecast and cash flow to scale the business efficiently.

Kevin Smith, CEO of Gold Mountain further elaborates, "We started this company with an early commitment to transparent and inclusive conversations with the Indigenous communities in the surrounding regions of our project. This contract is a result of those commitments and shows management's ability to deliver key partnerships in order to not only put the Elk Gold Project back into production, but also provide local communities an opportunity to participate. The Nhwelmen-Lake partnership is a major milestone for Gold Mountain and its shareholders. Having an established mining contractor and solidifying a well-defined cost structure, is one of the key pieces necessary in order to confidently go into production. Creating thirty full time job opportunities to the various communities in our region allows us to root ourselves in the long-term development of the local economy".

MINING CONTRACT
The Mining Contract lays out a partnership that gives Gold Mountain certainty in its mining and ore haulage capital and operating costs. Nhwelmen-Lake will leverage its experience in mining operations to ensure that the Elk Gold Project is operated in a safe, efficient manner while protecting environmental and cultural resources.

Nhwelmen-Lake will be paid a fixed price per tonne mined at a price that's in line with the PEA metrics over the first three years which is determined based on the planned production rate, mined volumes, haulage distances and equipment productivity. The scope of the Mining Contract includes mining of ore at a rate of 70,000 tonnes per annum (200 tonnes per day), waste mining, drilling, blasting, hauling, site supervision, supply of operating personnel, road maintenance, dust suppression as well as all the site preparation activities required prior to commencing mine operations, including topsoil stockpiling and preparing surface water management structures. Nhewelmen-Lake will also provide the haulage of plant feed material from the mine to the toll milling location at a fixed unit cost which aligns with the PEA.

The Mining Contract is for the life of mine while the price schedule carries a three-year term and gives Gold Mountain confidence in its forecast and cash flow to scale the business efficiently. The obligations of Gold Mountain under the Mining Contract begin upon Gold Mountain delivering a notice of commencement to Nhwelmen-Lake which the Company anticipates being in a position to deliver following its receipt of the Permit (see update below) and additional financing.

Mining Permit Update
Gold Mountain is pleased to provide an update on the progress of the Joint Permit Amendment Application that was submitted in May 2020 (the "Permit"). The Permit was accepted through the application screening phase of the application review and Gold Mountain has responded to the first round of technical review questions that were provided by the Ministry of Energy, Mines and Low Carbon Innovation, the Ministry of Environment and Climate Change Strategy and the Ministry of Forests, Lands, Natural Resources and Rural Development. Gold Mountain is anticipating a second (final) round of technical review questions from the regulators in the coming months prior to completing the Permit review process. The commencement of production at the Elk Gold Project is subject to Gold Mountain's receipt of this Permit.
