A copy of the press release is attached to this report as Exhibit 99.1. The complete copy of the report is available on Sedar under Solitario’s profile.

 

The information furnished under this Item 7.01, including the exhibits, shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, except as shall be expressly set forth by reference to such filing.

 

 

 

 

Cautionary Note to U.S. Investors concerning Estimates of Measured, Indicated and Inferred Resources

 

The press release furnished herewith has been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the securities laws in effect in Canada, which differ from the requirements of United States securities laws. Canadian reporting requirements for disclosure of mineral properties are governed by the Canadian Securities Administrators’ National Instrument 43-101 Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects. For this reason, information contained in the press release containing descriptions of the Company’s mineral deposits may not be comparable to similar information made public by United States companies subject to the reporting and disclosure requirements under the United States federal securities laws and the rules and regulations thereunder.

 

Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

 

With the exception of historical matters, the matters discussed in the press release include forward-looking statements within the meaning of applicable securities laws that involve risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from projections or estimates contained therein. Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from projections or estimates include, among others, metal prices, economic and market conditions, operating costs, and receipt of working capital, as well as other factors described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020, and other filings with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission. Most of these factors are beyond Solitario’s ability to predict or control. Solitario disclaims any obligation to update any forward-looking statement made in the press release, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise. Readers are cautioned not to put undue reliance on forward-looking statements.
