Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, October 30, 2020. Sanatana Resources Inc.
(“Sanatana” or the “Company”) has, further to its news release of September 29, 2020, signed a
definitive agreement to sell its Watershed Royalty (the “Royalty Sale”) to Ely Gold Royalties Inc.
(TSX-V:ELY, OTC-QX:ELYGF) (“Ely Gold”).

The Watershed Royalty was granted to Sanatana in connection with an asset purchase agreement
between the Company and Trelawney Augen Acquisition Corp, now IAMGOLD Corporation (“IAMGOLD”),
dated January 12, 2016, whereby IAMGOLD acquired a 100% interest in 46 mining claims in Chester and
Yeo Counties, Ontario (the “Watershed Property”). The Watershed Property surrounds the Coté Gold
Project which is a joint venture between IAMGOLD and Sumitomo Metal Mining Company.

Peter Miles, CEO, states “We are pleased to advance monetization of our Watershed Royalty in a
transaction that is non-dilutive to shareholders. This transaction will significantly improve our
liquidity and will allow us to accelerate exploration of our property portfolio and potentially
acquire additional projects.”

The Transaction

Sanatana will sell the Watershed Royalty to Ely Gold for consideration comprising $2,500,000 in
cash and 1,000,000 Ely Gold warrants (the “Ely Warrants”) which will have a five-year term and an
exercise price of $1.31 per share. Ely will have the right to accelerate expiry of the Ely Warrants
if the 10-day volume-weighted average price of Ely common shares exceeds $1.97 per share.

Completion of the Royalty Sale is subject to: (a) receipt by Sanatana of a waiver from IAMGOLD of
its right of first refusal relating to the Watershed Royalty (“ROFR”); and (b) conditional
acceptance of the TSX Venture Exchange. Closing is scheduled on the fifth business day after
satisfaction or waiver of the conditions precedent. In the event IAMGOLD exercises the ROFR,
Sanatana will pay a break fee of $500,000 to Ely Gold.
