Heraldo de Madrid - Leading Strategic Junior Mining Investor Michael Gentile Acquires 19.99% Stake in Magna Terra

Mr. Gentile is considered one of the leading strategic investors in the junior mining sector, owning significant top five ownership stakes in over 20 small-cap mining and mining exploration companies.

He is currently a director of Group Eleven Resources (TSX-V: ZNG), Northern Superior Resources (TSX-V: SUP), OnGold (TSX-V: ONAU), Radisson Mining Resources (TSX-V: RDS), Roscan Gold (TSX-V: ROS), and Solstice Gold (TSX-V: SGC), and a Strategic Advisor to Northisle Copper and Gold (TSX-V: NCX).

Mr. Gentile recently co-founded Bastion Asset Management in January 2022, a rapidly growing money management firm in Montreal with over $450 million in assets under management, focused on small to mid-cap equities in the USA and Canada. Mr. Gentile was previously a Vice President and Senior Portfolio Manager with Formula Growth Limited where he worked from 2002 to 2018.

"On behalf of the Company and its minority shareholders, we are very pleased to have Michael increase his stake in our Company to become our largest shareholder. Michael's track record, as a successful serial investor in the junior mining sector is unparalleled. He has been a supportive minority shareholder since 2020, and we are delighted today that he has acquired this share block recognizing the significant valuation upside inherent in the Company, and its diverse project and underlying asset portfolio. Michael's deep capital markets background will assist us in unlocking this value, as well as generating greater visibility with a broader investor audience."

~ Lew Lawrick - President & CEO

Mr. Gentile stated: "Magna Terra is a compelling opportunity with a $2 million market cap, a +10% share ownership in Gold Hunter Resources (CSE: HUNT) with a market value of approximately $500k and cash and option payments due to the Company from two earn-in agreements with Gold Hunter and Newmont totalling approximately $10 million over the next 2-3 years.

The recently staked Humber Cu-Co Project adds additional upside to the opportunity in one of my favourite global mining jurisdictions of Newfoundland and Labrador.

The management team of MTT is highly aligned with shareholders and runs a very tight line on cost control. I look forward to working with management to surface additional value and create awareness of the opportunity present here at Magna Terra."
