Vancouver, BC – February 9, 2021, Clarity Gold Corp. (“Clarity” or the “Company”) (CSE: CLAR, OTC: CLGCF, FSE: 27G) announces that as a result of a review by the British Columbia Securities Commission (the “BCSC”) the Company wishes to clarify and amend its disclosure with respect to the Company’s November 30, 2020 news release (the “News Release”) on its Destiny Gold Project (the “Project”), 75 kms north of Val d’Or, Quebec. Additionally, the Company is currently planning a drill program on the Destiny Project which is being designed to verify historic drilling, and will work towards filing a new National Instrument 43-101 (“NI 43-101”) resource estimate.

In the News Release the Company disclosed an historical estimate from a 2011 NI 43-101 technical report. The disclosure did not contain all of the information required under Section 2.4 of NI 43-101 describing the historical estimate. In order to clarify this disclosure, the Company has filed the technical report “NI 43-101 Technical Report on the Destiny Property, Despinassy Township, Quebec, Canada” for the Project on SEDAR on February 9, 2021 (the “Clarity Report”) which describes the estimate from the 2011 report as an historical estimate.

The DAC Historical Estimate:

ClassTonnesAu (gpt)Au (ounces)
Indicated10,800,0001.05360,000
Inferred8,300,0000.92247,000

Notes:
The historical estimate at DAC is considered historical as defined in NI 43-101. See the following table with important disclosures regarding historical estimates.
The historical estimate for DAC is contained in the technical report entitled “NI 43-101 Technical Report and Resource Estimate of the DAC Deposit, Destiny Property, Quebec” effective March 1, 2011, completed by Todd McCracken of Wardrop Engineering Inc for Alto Ventures Ltd (now Big Ridge Gold Corp) and filed on SEDAR.
Values were rounded to reflect the summary nature of the estimate.

In accordance with Section 2.4 of National Instrument 43-101 – Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects (“NI 43-101”) and despite section 2.2 an issuer may disclose an historical estimate, using the original terminology, if the disclosure identifies the following:

Source and date of the historical estimate, including any existing technical reportInformation relating to this historical estimate is summarized from a technical report authored by Todd McCracken, P.Geo. of Wardrop Engineering Inc entitled “NI 43-101 Technical Report and Resource Estimate of the DAC Deposit, Destiny Property, Quebec” effective March 1, 2011 filed on SEDAR for Alto Ventures Ltd (now Big Ridge Gold Corp).
Relevance and reliability of the historical estimateThe 2011 Report was compiled in accordance with Canadian Institute of Mining (2005) standards and best practices for Mineral Resources, adhering to NI 43-101. Alto Ventures established a QAQC program that was reviewed by the independent QP who accepted the data as suitable for mineral resource estimation at that time.
Key assumptions, parameters, and methods used to prepare the historical estimateCapped gold grade was interpolated using IDW method into a block model constrained by mineralized domains. Parameters used include a cut-off grade of 0.5 g/t Au, Au price of US$973/Oz, US$ to CAD$ conversion of 1.02, Au recovery 94%, 4:1 Strip ratio, Operating cost of $14.30/t at 10,000 tpd, density of 2.76
Resource categories usedIn accordance with NI 43-101 as defined in 2011, the DAC historical estimate used the terms inferred and indicated mineral resource having the same meanings ascribed to those terms by the CIM Definition Standards on Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves.
More recent estimates or data available to the issuerThere are no more recent estimates available to the issuer. There are only 17 drill holes totalling approximately 4,485 m completed that are not included in the 2011 historical estimate, with only one hole being within the historical estimate area.
Work needed to be done to upgrade or verify the historical estimate as current mineral resources or mineral reservesAn independent Qualified Person has not done sufficient work to review the historical data and historical estimate to determine what further work would be required to write an updated current Technical Report in accordance with NI 43-101.  It is envisaged that this will involve an update/refinement to the geologic model and grade interpolation methods.

Clarity Gold Corp. states with equal prominence that it is not treating the historical estimate as current mineral resources or reserves. At this time, a qualified person has not done sufficient work on behalf of Clarity to classify the historical estimate as current mineral resources or reserves.

Clarity is not treating the historical estimate as current mineral resources or reserves. At this time, a qualified person has not done sufficient work on behalf of Clarity to classify this historical estimate as current mineral resources or reserves.  Investors should not rely on the historical estimate as a current mineral resource estimate until it has been verified and supported in a technical report in accordance with NI 43-101.
