MONTRÉAL, May 27, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Morocco Strategic Minerals Corporation (TSXV: MCC) ("Morocco Strategic Minerals" or the "Corporation") is pleased to announce that it has entered into an agreement  on May 26th, 2026 (the “Agreement”) with Visible Gold Mines Inc. (TSXV: VGD) (‘’Visible Gold’’) pursuant to which Visible Gold will acquire a 100% interest in the Sakami Property (“Sakami” or the “Property”) located in the James Bay region of Québec (the ‘’Transaction’’). The Transaction is consistent with the Corporation’s strategy to streamline its portfolio and focus capital and management resources on its Moroccan exploration assets, while allowing Sakami to be advanced by a Québec-focused exploration company. Terms of the Agreement Under the terms of the Agreement, Visible Gold will issue to Morocco Strategic Minerals Corp. 4,000,000 common shares of Visible Gold, representing approximately 9.7% of Visible Gold’s issued and outstanding common shares on a pro forma non-diluted basis and approximately 8.3% on a pro forma fully diluted basis following closing.

Visible Gold will also grant Morocco Strategic Minerals Corp. a 1% NSR royalty on the Property, which may be repurchased by Visible Gold for $1 million. The common shares will be subject to a voluntary three-year resale restriction, with 400,000 common shares to be released four months following closing and 1.2 million common shares to be released on each of the first, second and third anniversaries of the closing date (the “Voluntary Resale Restriction”). Completion of the Transaction remains subject to customary closing conditions, including acceptance of the TSX Venture Exchange, as applicable.

Management Commentary Pierre-Olivier Goulet, VP Corporate Development of Morocco Strategic Minerals, commented: “While we continue to see meaningful exploration potential at Sakami, the Corporation’s current strategic focus on Morocco provides an opportunity to partner the asset with a group dedicated to advancing exploration in Québec. We believe Visible Gold is well positioned to unlock the value of the project while allowing Morocco Strategic Minerals to maintain exposure through equity ownership and an NSR royalty.

This transaction also allows the Corporation to further concentrate its financial and operational resources on its rapidly growing Moroccan portfolio.” Mr. Goulet added: “We are pleased to retain long-term upside exposure to Sakami while focusing our efforts on advancing our exploration initiatives in Morocco, where we continue to see significant opportunities for district-scale discoveries and strategic partnerships.” About the Sakami Property The Sakami Property comprises 475 claims covering approximately 250 km² and is located along the contact between the Opinaca and La Grande subprovinces in the James Bay region of Québec.
