[{"type":"text","content":" SASKATOON, Saskatchewan, Oct. 25, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- GFG Resources Inc. (TSXV: GFG) (OTCQB: GFGSF) (“GFG” or the “Company”) announces that the Company has completed its initial obligations pursuant to its previously announced definitive agreement (the “Agreement”) with International Explorers and Prospectors Inc. (“IEP”) to acquire a 100% interest in the Montclerg Gold Project (and/or the “Project”) (see news release: “GFG Expands Presence in Timmins - Acquires the Montclerg Gold Project East of the Prolific Timmins Gold District”).
