Omai Gold Drilling Underway at Omai Project in Guyana, Stock Option Plan Approved

08.03.2022  |  The Newswire
Toronto, March 8, 2022 - Omai Gold Mines Corp. (TSXV:OMG) (OTC:OMGGF) ("Omai Gold" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has commenced drilling on the Omai Gold Property in Guyana after completing 10 trenches, totalling 580 metres in January and February. The Company is making excellent progress drilling in the Blueberry Hill area approximately 500 metres west of the past-producing Fennell deposit.

Elaine Ellingham, President and CEO commented, "Trenching has proven very effective at exposing quartz stockwork systems, allowing us to get better definition on the structural orientations of the targeted horizons. This allows us to be far more focused and effective with the drilling of our exploration targets. With the completion of our maiden resource at Wenot, we have turned our initial focus of the current drilling to our priority exploration targets resulting from our extensive 2021 compilation work. Some of these targets were identified in the 1990s but have remained untested. We have already completed three holes totalling 501 metres on the Blueberry Hill and Gilt Creek area, west of Fennell, with initial results expected before the end of March."

Stock Option Plan Approval

The Company also received final approval from the TSX Venture Exchange to implement the Company's new stock option plan (the "Stock Option Plan"), which was approved by the Company's shareholders at the annual general and special meeting of shareholders held on December 16, 2021 (the "AGM"), and is granting options to certain officers, directors and consultants as part of its annual long-term incentive program.

The Stock Option Plan replaces the Company's prior stock option plan. The Stock Option Plan is a "rolling" stock option plan, whereby the aggregate number of common shares of the Company ("Common Shares") reserved for issuance shall not exceed 10% of the total number of issued and outstanding Common Shares (calculated on a non-diluted basis) at the time an Option is granted. The Company's Stock Option Plan is filed on SEDAR at www.sedar.com.

With the adoption of the Stock Option Plan, the Company announces the grant of 5,210,000 Options, including 4,300,000 granted to directors and executive officers with the balance granted to employees and consultants. The Options are exercisable at $0.11 per Common Share expiring March 7, 2027. As of the date hereof, there are 271,711,599 Common Shares issued and outstanding, and therefore, a maximum of 27,171,59 Options are issuable under the Stock Option Plan, of which 22,940,831 have been granted.
