Management Changes

September 29, 2023

Calgary, AB – Alpha Exploration Ltd. (“Alpha” or the “Company”) (TSXV: ALEX) announces that Mr. Alasdair Smith has notified the Company that for personal reasons, he will be resigning from his position as Technical Director and Director of the board of directors of Alpha (the “Board”) as of September 30, 2023. Concurrent with his departure from the board Mr. Smith has agreed to join the Alpha Advisory Board and in this position, he will provide technical assistance and oversight to the Alpha Board and management as requested. Alpha would like to sincerely thank Mr. Smith for his valuable services to the Company since inception.

Michael Hopley, Alpha’s President and CEO said “Alasdair was instrumental in establishing Alpha back in 2018 and was the driving force behind selecting the Kerkasha licence and building the team that has delivered consistent exploration success across the project. The Alpha team owe him a debt of gratitude for his dedication and commitment to the Company. Fundamentally, Alasdair managed the initial exploration work that led to the discovery of Alpha’s three key Alpha flagship properties – the district scale Aburna Gold Prospect, the Anagulu Gold-Copper Prospect and the Tolegimja Copper-Zinc-Gold VMS Prospect.

I and all of the team are delighted that Alasdair’s wisdom and insights will still be available to Alpha through his joining of the advisory board. On the ground, the baton will now pass to Scott McKeag and his very capable team to further rapidly advance these exciting discoveries along the development pathway.”
