Vancouver, British Columbia – May 22, 2020 – PPX Mining Corp. (the "Company" or “PPX”) discloses that the filing of the Company's annual financial statements for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2019, the related management's discussion and analysis, and the certification of the annual filings for the year ended September 30, 2019 (collectively, the "2019 Annual Financial Statements"), were not completed by the deadline of April 30, 2020. As a result, the British Columbia Securities Commission issued a cease trade order (the "Cease Trade Order") on May 20, 2020 against the Company and securities have been halted from trading on the TSX Venture Exchange. The Company continues to work closely with its auditor and expects to file the 2019 Annual Financial Statements as soon as possible, but the completion of the 2019 Annual Financial Statements were delayed by the quarantine measures instituted as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. Once the 2019 Annual Financial Statements are finalized, the Company will seek to have the Cease Trade Order revoked. The Company will be forthcoming with an update on the 2019 Annual Financial Statements once the required filings have been made. The Company also confirms, as of the date of this news release, that there is no other material information concerning the affairs of the Company that has not been generally disclosed.

Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Information

This press release contains forward-looking information and forward-looking statements (collectively, “forward-looking statements”) as such terms are defined by applicable securities laws, including, but not limited to statements regarding the resumption of trading on the Exchange. Forward-looking statements are statements that relate to future events. In this context, forward-looking statements often address expected future business and financial performance and often contain words such as "anticipate," "believe," "plan," "estimate," "expect," and "intend,", statements that an action or event "may," "might," "could," "should," or "will" be taken or occur, or other similar expressions. Forward-looking statements are subject to a number of known and unknown risks and uncertainties, many of which involve factors or circumstances that are beyond the Company’s control, and the Company’s actual results could differ materially from those stated or implied in forward-looking statements due to many various factors. Such uncertainties and risks include, among others, delays in obtaining or inability to obtain required regulatory approvals in connection with the resumption of trading on the Exchange.

Although the Company believes that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, the Company cannot guarantee that the events and circumstances reflected in the forward-looking statements will be achieved or occur. The timing of events and circumstances and actual results could differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements. Accordingly, one should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements. All forward-looking statements contained in this press release are made as of today’s date, and the Company undertakes no obligation to update or publicly revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, unless required by law.
