Given that the ICSID Arbitration is the Company’s core focus, the information set out on this website relating to the Roşia Montană Project, the License, Gabriel’s exploration and development activities in Romania, the Project approval and permitting process and reported gold and silver resources and reserves is for background purposes only and should not be interpreted as being indicative of Gabriel’s current expectations regarding the future development of the Roşia Montană Project.

Cautionary Note on Forward–Looking Statements

The Website and the materials posted on it contain “forward-looking information” (also referred to as “forward-looking statements”) within the meaning of applicable Canadian securities legislation. Forward-looking statements are provided for the purpose of providing information about Gabriel’s current expectations and plans and allowing investors and others to get a better understanding of the Gabriel’s operating environment. All statements, other than statements of historical fact, are forward-looking statements.

Forward-looking statements are necessarily based upon a number of estimates and assumptions that, while considered reasonable by Gabriel at this time, are inherently subject to significant business, economic and competitive uncertainties and contingencies that may cause Gabriel’s actual financial results, performance, or achievements to be materially different from those expressed or implied herein. Some of the material factors or assumptions used to develop forward-looking statements include, without limitation, the uncertainties associated with: the ICSID Arbitration, actions by the Romanian Government, conditions or events impacting the Gabriel’s ability to fund its operations or service its debt, exploration, development and operation of mining properties and the overall impact of misjudgments made in good faith in the course of preparing forward-looking information.

Forward-looking statements involve risks, uncertainties, assumptions, and other factors including those set out below, that may never materialize, prove incorrect or materialize other than as currently contemplated which could cause the Gabriel’s results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Any statements that express or involve discussions with respect to predictions, expectations, beliefs, plans, projections, objectives, assumptions or future events or performance (often, but not always, identified by words or phrases such as “expects”, “is expected”, “anticipates”, “believes”, “plans”, “projects”, “estimates”, “assumes”, “intends”, “strategy”, “goals”, “objectives”, “potential”, “possible” or variations thereof or stating that certain actions, events, conditions or results “may”, “could”, “would”, “should”, “might” or “will” be taken, occur or be achieved, or the negative of any of these terms and similar expressions) are not statements of fact and may be forward-looking statements.

Numerous factors could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements, including without limitation:

  • the outbreak of the coronavirus (COVID‐19) may affect the Company’s operations and/or the anticipated timeline for the ICSID Arbitration;
  • the geo-political situation and the resulting economic developments arising from the unfolding conflict and humanitarian crisis as a consequence of the Russia-Ukraine conflict;
  • the duration, costs, process and outcome of the ICSID Arbitration;
  • Romania’s actions following the inscription of the “Roşia Montană Mining Landscape” as a UNESCO World Heritage site;
  • changes in the liquidity and capital resources of Gabriel, and/or the group of companies of which it is directly or indirectly parent ("Group");
  • access to funding to support the Group’s continued ICSID Arbitration and/or operating activities in the future;
  • equity dilution resulting from the conversion or exercise of new or existing securities in part or in whole to common shares of Gabriel;
  • the ability of the Company to maintain a continued listing on the TSX Venture Exchange or any regulated public market for trading securities;
  • the impact on business strategy and its implementation in Romania of: any allegations of historic acts of corruption, uncertain fiscal investigations; uncertain legal enforcement both for and against the Group and political and social instability;
  • regulatory, political and economic risks associated with operating in a foreign jurisdiction including changes in laws, governments and legal regimes and interpretation of existing and future fiscal and other legislation;
  • global economic and financial market conditions;
  • volatility of currency exchange rates; and
  • the availability and continued participation in operational or other matters pertaining to the Group of certain key employees and consultants.

This list is not exhaustive of the factors that may affect any of Gabriel’s forward-looking statements.

Investors are cautioned not to put undue reliance on forward-looking statements, and investors should not infer that there has been no change in the Gabriel’s affairs since the date of this press release that would warrant any modification of any forward-looking statement made in this document, other documents periodically filed with or furnished to the relevant securities regulators or documents presented on the Gabriel’s website. All subsequent written and oral forward-looking statements attributable to Gabriel or persons acting on its behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by this notice. Gabriel disclaims any intent or obligation to update publicly or otherwise revise any forward-looking statements or the foregoing list of assumptions or factors, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, subject to the Gabriel’s disclosure obligations under applicable Canadian securities regulations. Investors are urged to read the Company’s public filings which can be reviewed on the SEDAR website (www.sedar.com).

Cautionary Note to United States Investors Concerning Estimates of Measured, Indicated and Inferred Resources

This website uses the terms "Measured", "Indicated" and "Inferred" Resources. United States investors are advised that while such terms are recognized and required by Canadian regulations, the United States Securities and Exchange Commission does not recognize them. "Inferred Mineral Resources" have a great amount of uncertainty as to their existence, and as to their economic and legal feasibility. It cannot be assumed that all or any part of an Inferred Mineral Resource will ever be upgraded to a higher category. Subject to certain exceptions, under Canadian securities laws, estimates of Inferred Mineral Resources may not form the basis of feasibility or other economic analyses. United States investors are cautioned not to assume that all or any part of Measured or Indicated Mineral Resources will ever be converted into Mineral Reserves. United States investors are also cautioned not to assume that all or any part of an Inferred Mineral Resource exists, or is economically or legally mineable.
