One company insider participated in the private placement and subscribed for a total of 300,000 FT units. The participation by such insider is a related-party transaction within the meaning of Multilateral Instrument 61-101, Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions. The company has relied on exemptions from the formal valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements of MI 61-101 contained in sections 5.5(a) and 5.7(1)(a) of MI 61-101 in respect of related party participation in the placement as neither the fair market value (as determined under MI 61-101) of the subject matter of, nor the fair market value of the consideration for, the transaction, insofar as it involved the related parties, exceeded 25 per cent of the company's market capitalization (as determined under MI 61-101).

About Slam Exploration Ltd.
Slam is a public resource company with a substantial portfolio of mineral claimholdings in the mineral-rich province of New Brunswick. The company recently completed three diamond drill holes on the Goodwin copper-nickel project in the Bathurst mining camp (BMC) of New Brunswick. Highlights include a 64.90-metre core interval grading 2.14 per cent copper equivalent in hole GW24-02. The company has reported an additional 12 holes drilled in a follow-up program currently in progress at Goodwin. Assays are pending on holes GW24-08 to GW24-15.
Slam has discovered multiple gold veins on its wholly owned Menneval gold project. The company has reported gold-bearing core intervals, including 162.5 grams per tonne (g/t) gold over 0.2 metre and 56.90 g/t gold over 0.5 metre (news releases dated Dec. 13, 2021, and Nov. 22, 2022). Additionally, the company reported quartz float grading up to 39.2 g/t gold on its Jake Lee project, located near the Clarence Stream gold deposit, where Galway Metals Inc. is working on a 2.3-million-ounce-gold deposit in southern New Brunswick.
Slam also owns the Mine Road copper-zinc-silver project, adjacent to the former-producing Heath Steele Mines property in the BMC. Previous workers have reported successful diamond drill holes at Mine Road, including IL2014-003, which intersected a nine-metre core interval grading 14.51 per cent zinc, 5.86 per cent lead, 0.67 per cent copper and 139.9 g/t silver in the volcanogenic massive sulphide Railroad zone (Doe Run Canadian Exploration ULC, 2015, New Brunswick assessment files, report of work 477877). The Railroad zone is located 7,000 metres east of the 20-million-tonne former-producing Heath Steele B zone.
Slam is a project generator and has received significant cash and share payments over the past year. The company holds NSR (net smelter return) royalties, and expects additional cash and share payments from the Wedge copper-zinc project, and the Ramsay, Reserve Creek and Opikeigen gold projects.
