Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - October 30, 2024) - Canter Resources Corp. (CSE: CRC) (OTC Pink: CNRCF) (FSE: 6O1) ("Canter" or the "Company") is pleased to announce amendments to the underlying agreements for its Columbus Lithium-Boron Project ("Columbus" or the "Project"). In agreement with the Company's property partner, these amendments defer all cash payment obligations aligning both parties' interests with a near-term focus on deeper discovery drilling at Columbus, allowing the Company to create significant value for all stakeholders.

"We are very pleased to complete this agreement with our partner and look forward to sharing more Columbus Project updates later this quarter."

The added financial flexibility allows the Company to build on recent exploration successes with subsequent deeper drilling at Columbus with only one USD$30,000 cash payment (November 2025) due from now until May 2026.
