/EINPresswire.com/ -- MONTREAL, QUEBEC -- (Marketwired) -- 07/22/16 -- In light of a large volume of inquiries submitted to the Company by shareholders in the last 48 hours concerning a press release issued by the Autorite des marches financiers ("AMF") on July 15, 2016, Geomega Resources Inc. ("GeoMegA" or the "Company") (TSX VENTURE: GMA) would like to make the following clarifications;

1.  As mentioned in the AMF press release, GeoMegA is not the subject of the
    investigation. The inquiry is about, and only about one employee's and
    two of his acquaintances' alleged trading in GeoMegA securities.

2.  To address the majority of recent shareholder inquiries, the Company has
    reviewed the evidence as presented by the AMF on the Company employee's
    alleged insider trading activities and to date, has not been able to
    conclude that the alleged transactions were linked in any way to the
    spikes in the Company securities seen in 2014, 2015 and 2016. Based on
    the Company's analysis, the volumes allegedly traded generally represent
    a small percentage of the volume traded on the specific days and during
    the specific period inquired by the AMF. Furthermore, based upon the
    evidence presented by the AMF, the Company employee named by the
    investigation appears to have been a net buyer of Company securities.

3.  The inquiry has no bearing whatsoever on the integrity of the Company's
    technical or financial disclosure. GeoMegA has always reviewed its
    technical data. Separation results in 2014 and the hydrometallurgical
    results in 2015 were validated by an independent third party, and the
    Company has no reason to doubt the integrity of the data it has
    published to date.

The Company will continue to monitor the investigation if and as it proceeds.
