Hazeur property
The Corporation has signed an agreement with Visible Gold Mines to acquire its 30% interest in the Hazeur property, located just south of Monster Lake and Monster Lake East. As consideration, TomaGold will issue 2 million common shares upon closing of the transaction and make the following cash payments: $50,000 by May 31, 2021, an additional $100,000 by July 31, 2021, and another $100,000 by November 30, 2021.

As consideration, TomaGold will issue 3 million common shares upon closing of the transaction and will issue an additional 2 million common shares or make a cash payment of $250,000 (at the option of the Corporation) one year after closing.

"These transactions will strengthen our position around Monster Lake to a total of 151 wholly-owned claims covering 8,304 hectares (83 km 2 ) situated around the IAMGOLD deposit, and will extend the Obalski property towards the south, which also has interesting geological potential," said David Grondin, President and Chief Executive Officer of TomaGold. "In addition, in line with the spring thaw, we are preparing the core material from historical drilling on Obalski to be sent to Corem for reanalysis using a leaching procedure and we will soon begin, depending on the availability of the drilling crews, our 10,000-metre drilling program on the same property."
