Maya Gold & Silver Inc. ("Maya" or the "Corporation") (TSX: MYA) wishes to provide an update on the Press Release issued May 14, 2020 relating to the COVID-19 pandemic as it effects the Corporation and the status of the filing of its quarterly financial statements and accompanying management's discussion and analysis, and related CEO and CFO certifications, for the quarter ended March 31, 2020 ("Interim Filings"). On May 14, 2020 the Corporation issued the required press release to obtain an extension pursuant to decision N°2020-PDG-0023 issued by the Autorite des marches financiers ("AMF Temporary Exemption"). Maya is relying on this extension period due to delays experienced as result of the COVID-19 pandemic.
The lockdown resulting from the outbreak of COVID-19 pandemic has created unprecedented disruption in the global economy and stock markets. Maya's Board of Directors and Management continue to take all necessary precautions to ensure the health of its employees and consultants and to manage the short-term challenges to its business.
Maya estimates that its Interim Filings will be available for filing at its earliest opportunity, which is expected to occur by end of June 2020. Until such time as the Interim Filings are filed, Maya's management and other insiders are subject to a trading blackout that reflects the principles contained in section 9 of National Policy 11-207 - Failure-to-File Cease Trade Orders and Revocations in Multiple Jurisdictions.
There have been no material business developments since the date of the last Annual Financial Statements, filed on May 14, 2020, a copy of which is available on SEDAR at www.sedar.com.
