HOD MADEN RECEIVES FORESTRY PERMIT AND BEGINS EARLY WORKS CONSTRUCTION
Lidya Madencilik Sanayi ve Ticaret A.S. ("Lidya"), the majority owner and operator of the Hod Maden project in Turkey, has been advancing the project as all major permits have been received, with the award of the final permit from the Ministry of Forestry. The Environmental Impact Assessment was approved in 2021, another major project milestone.
Lidya has commenced two out of four planned early works projects at site. The access road and pad preparation for the electrical substation is almost complete and the road upgrades in the Salicor Valley to the north are well underway. Once installed, the electrical substation will tie to the existing overhead high-voltage lines. Other early works projects that are permitted and set to begin are the access road upgrade and tunnel to the North Valley. All four early works projects are expected to be underway or completed by the start of Q4 2022.
Sandstorm has a gold stream on the Hod Maden project allowing the Company to purchase 20% of gold produced (on a 100% basis) for ongoing payments at a price equal to 50% of the gold spot price until 405,000 ounces of gold are delivered (the "Delivery Threshold"). After the Delivery Threshold has been reached, the gold stream will entitle Sandstorm to purchase 12% of gold produced for the life of the mine at a price equal to 60% of the gold spot price. Sandstorm also holds a 2.0% net smelter returns ("NSR") royalty on the Hod Maden project.

It is expected that by the end of 2022 the water treatment plant will be commissioned, the majority of the buildings constructed, and some preproduction mining activities will begin.
