ELECTRA NICKEL PROJECT

On December 31, 2020, ALX announced the signing of a definitive agreement for an option to purchase a 100% interest in the Electra Nickel Project (“Electra”, or the “Project”) located in Shebandowan Greenstone Belt within the Thunder Bay South Mining District of Ontario, Canada. Electra, formerly known as the Bateman Lake property, is prospective for nickel, copper and cobalt (“Ni-Cu-Co”), platinum group elements (“PGEs”) and gold mineralization. In March 2021, ALX staked an additional claim and expanded the size of the Project to 191 claims (211 cell units) totaling approximately 4,517 hectares (11,162 acres).

In early May 2021, ALX completed a versatile time-domain electromagnetic (“VTEMTM ^Plus”) survey totaling 335.6 line-kilometres at Electra. Preliminary observations of the VTEMTM data show strong conductive features in the north-central part of Electra where historical grab samples have returned up to 0.95% nickel in a showing hosted within komatiitic rocks. The komatiites hosting the showing are notable for exhibiting spinifex textures associated with the nickel mineralization. A further review of public domain gravity data shows a strong gravity high anomaly underlying Electra that extends for approximately 35 kilometres northwest to the past-producing Shebandowan Nickel Mine. Interpretation of the VTEM data is ongoing and will provide a foundation for ground-truthing the interpreted anomalies by prospecting in the summer of 2021.

Details of the Acquisition

ALX has executed a definitive agreement (the “Agreement”) with a vendor group (“the Vendors”) to earn up to a 100% interest in one hundred and forty-eight (148) units totaling 3,168.02 hectares (7,828.35 acres), in exchange for total payments of $135,000 cash, 1.1 million common shares of ALX, and $500,000 in exploration expenditures (the “Expenditures”), according to the following schedule:

Electra is subject to a 2.5% net smelter returns royalty (“NSR”) payable to the Vendors on the sale of valuable minerals from the Project. At any time, ALX shall have the right to purchase from the Vendors up to 1.5% of the NSR in 0.5% increments for $500,000 per 0.5% increment.

About Electra

Electra lies within the western extension of the Abitibi-Wawa-Shebandowan subprovince of the Superior structural province of the Canadian Shield. The volcanic-sedimentary units of this belt are bounded to the south by granitic terrain, and to the north by the Quetico subprovince.

A major structural feature known as the Thunder Lake Fault striking northeast-southwest through Electra is traced through the property using airborne magnetic geophysics, and is interpreted as a lithospheric scale fault. This type of deep-seated structure is a requisite for the emplacement of mineralization from a magmatic source.

Historical exploration at Electra since the 1960s consisted of prospecting, soil sampling, trenching and limited geophysical and drilling programs, intermittently searching for nickel and gold mineralization. A 1995 drilling program by Winslow Gold Corp. intersected multiple zones of Ni-Cu-Co and zinc mineralization, including 16.6 metres of 0.15% nickel. At the Kwiatkowski Zone showing, ground prospecting located komatiitic rocks that returned values of up to 9,482 parts per million (“ppm”) nickel. The komatiites hosting the showing are notable for exhibiting spinifex textures associated with the nickel mineralization. Follow-up trenching and channel sampling of the komatiites by Linear Metals Corporation in 2008 returned a maximum value of 6,675 parts per million nickel over 3.7 metres.
