September 23,2021

Vancouver, BC - Project One Resources Ltd., (CSE: PJO) ("Project One" or the "Company") announces that further to its news release dated June 9, 2021, it has obtained conditional approval from the Canadian Securities Exchange (the "CSE") for its proposed acquisition (the "Acquisition") of two gold mining properties located in Guyana, the Tassawini Property and the Harpy Property, (collectively the "Properties") from Goldeneye Capital Corp. ("Goldeneye"). The Acquisition is considered a fundamental change under the policies of the CSE. Upon successful completion of the Acquisition, it is anticipated that the Company will retain its listing on the CSE and change its name to Alerio Gold Corp. (the "Resulting Issuer") and the common shares of the Resulting Issuer will trade under the ticker symbol "ALE". The business of the Resulting Issuer will be the exploration of the Properties.

In consideration for the Acquisition, the Company will: (i) issue a total of 50,000,00 common shares in the capital of the Company (the "Consideration Shares") to Goldeneye, at a deemed price of $0.25 per Consideration Share, (ii) make a one-time cash payment of US$500,000 to Goldeneye; and (iii) grant a 3% net smelter royalty over the Tassawini Property to Goldeneye. The Consideration Shares will be subject to escrow and hold periods as prescribed by the policies of the CSE and Canadian securities laws.

In connection with the Acquisition, Project One completed a financing, raising gross proceeds of $1,354,500 through the issuance of 5,418,000 units at a price of $0.25 per unit. See the Company's new release dated August 16, 2021 for further information.

Subject to the fulfilment of conditions and any necessary approvals, the Company anticipates that the completion of the Acquisition will occur sometime by the end of September 2021 and early October 2021, or such other date as the Company and Goldeneye may agree.

A copy of the Form 2A listing statement in connection with the Acquisition was prepared in accordance with the policies of the CSE and will be available on SEDAR at http://www.sedar.com and the CSE website prior to the commencement of trading of the common shares of the Resulting Issuer on the CSE. The Resulting Issuer's new website, http://www.aleriogold.com, is currently under construction and will be updated in the near future.

"The incoming team of Jonathan Challis, Lee Graber, Greg Smith and Al Fabbro who will oversee the Properties, and provide the Resulting Issuer a wealth of experience in mining and capital markets. That, along with the fact that the Tassawini Property has an historical resource that has potential for expansion, are a few of the reasons we chose this route for Project One," states Ron Shenton, CEO of the Company.

Upon completion of the Acquisition, Project One will have a 100% beneficial interest in the two Properties in Guyana.
