Toronto, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - February 4, 2021) - Austral Gold Limited (ASX: AGD) (TSXV: AGLD) ("Austral") and Revelo Resources Corp. (TSXV: RVL) ("Revelo") are pleased to announce the successful completion of their previously-announced business combination, pursuant to which Austral has acquired all of the issued and outstanding common shares of Revelo by way of a statutory plan of arrangement under the provisions of the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia) (the "Arrangement"). The Arrangement became effective at 12:01 a.m. (Vancouver Time) on February 4, 2021 resulting in Revelo becoming a wholly-owned subsidiary of Austral.

"We are grateful for the strong support of Revelo's shareholders and thank Revelo's board of directors, and management of both companies for their hard work on this transaction. The addition of Revelo's assets to our portfolio, including three projects located close to our pre-existing Guanaco/Amancaya mining complex is strategic, and provides us with a leading role in the Paleocene-Eocene Belt in Chile. In addition, we believe this prolific mineralized belt is underexplored for precious metals," said Stabro Kasaneva, Chief Executive Officer of Austral.

Michael Winn, Revelo's Chairman, commented, "We are very pleased to have closed this transaction and wish to thank our shareholders, board of directors and management team for their continued support and for fostering the growth and development of Revelo over the years. We wish Austral the very best with the development of their business moving forward."

To receive the consideration in exchange for their Revelo Shares, registered shareholders of Revelo must complete, sign, date and return the Letter of Transmittal that was mailed to each registered shareholder of Revelo. The Letter of Transmittal is also available (i) from Revelo's depositary, Computershare Trust Company of Canada, that can be contacted by telephone at: 1-800-564-6253 or by e-mail at: , or (ii) on SEDAR () under Revelo's issuer profile.

With the Arrangement now complete, Austral intends to cause the Revelo Shares to be delisted from the TSX Venture Exchange, and Revelo intends to submit an application to the applicable securities regulators to cease to be a reporting issuer and to terminate its public reporting obligations.
