Sassy Files Preliminary Gander Gold Prospectus; Appoints Gander Officers and Directors

VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / December 14, 2021 / Sassy Resources Corporation ("Sassy" or the "Company") (CSE:SASY)(FSE:4E7)(OTCQB:SSYRF) is pleased to announce that it filed the preliminary non-offering prospectus for its Newfoundland-focused subsidiary Gander Gold Corporation ("Gander Gold") with the British Columbia Securities Commission ("BCSC") on December 2, 2021. The Company is equally pleased to announce that Gander Gold has appointed its founding Executive Officers and Board of Directors.

The filing of the preliminary prospectus with the BCSC initiates the review and approval process. Following final approval of the non-offering prospectus by the BCSC, Gander Gold will convert 100% of the outstanding Special Warrants into Gander Gold common shares and will file a 2A Listing Statement with the Canadian Securities Exchange (CSE). The prospectus qualifies all of the shares issued under the Special Warrants so that they will be free trading when Gander Gold commences trading. The Company will update on timing of the process as it progresses in the coming weeks.

The date of record for the planned capital distribution of 8,833,333 Gander Gold shares to Sassy shareholders is February 1, 2022, at a ratio of one Gander share for every 5.3816 Sassy shares owned by a Sassy shareholder based on the current Sassy share structure. The Company will maintain ownership of 35,328,723 Gander shares following the capital distribution to its shareholders, representing approximately 49.5% ownership of Gander. Mr. Eric Sprott will beneficially own 10,666,667 Gander shares, representing approximately 15% ownership. The final spinout ratio is subject to any changes to the Sassy share structure between the date of this announcement and the final record date for the share distribution, though Sassy has no plans and no need to carry out a private placement prior to February 1.

Mr. Mark Scott, President and CEO of Sassy who will also be Gander Gold's founding President and CEO, stated: "Gander Gold will have a powerful presence in Newfoundland as Sassy's eight projects on the island covering 2,257 sq. km constitute the property spinout. Exploration has already been carried out at each of these projects with exciting early results from Gander North and many more results to come over the next couple of months. Gander Gold will be well positioned to quickly establish itself as a discovery leader in Newfoundland."

Mr. Mark Scott added, "With respect to Sassy, it will be left with a large share position in Gander along with its 100%-owned Foremore Project in northwest BC's prolific Eskay Camp. Keeping with the brand and our strategy from the day we originally commenced trading on the CSE in August of last year, Sassy is currently in discussions to acquire a drill-ready new property in a very favorable jurisdiction to maintain its ability to carry out direct exploration year-round following the Gander Gold spinout."
