Metallic Minerals Announces C$4 Million Flow-Through Private Placement Financing

VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / May 18, 2022 / Metallic Minerals Corp. (TSX-V:MMG) (OTCQB:MMNGF) ("Metallic Minerals" or the "Company") is pleased to announce a non-brokered private placement offering of 9,600,000 flow-through units ("Units") at a price of $0.42 per Unit for aggregate gross proceeds of $4,032,000 (the "Offering"), which represents a premium to the May 17^th closing price of the Company's common shares on the TSX Venture Exchange (the "Exchange"). The Units consist of a flow-through share and a half warrant and are being issued as part of a charity arrangement structured by Peartree Securities Inc.

All net proceeds from the Offering are planned to be used to incur Canadian Exploration Expenses ("CEE") under the Income Tax Act (Canada) primarily at Metallic Minerals' Keno Silver project in the historic, high-grade Keno Hill Silver District in Canada's Yukon Territory.

Greg Johnson, CEO & Chairman, stated, "We are very pleased to add these new investors to our supportive shareholder base and are in a position to complete important follow-up programs at the Company's Keno Silver and the La Plata projects, using a combination of existing funding and new flow-through funds. We remain positive on the underlying fundamentals for commodities as the current cycle continues to build and look forward to providing additional project updates as our exploration programs get underway."

Each whole share purchase warrant is exercisable into one additional common share of the Company at a price of $0.50 per share for a period of 30 months from the date of closing. Subject to approval by the Exchange, if the closing share price five (5) trading days prior to the end of the 30-month warrant period is at or below $0.50, the Company shall, upon written request by a warrant holder, extend expiry of such warrants for an additional six (6) months.

Closing of the Offering is expected on or about June 8, 2022, subject to certain customary conditions, including, but not limited to, acceptance of the Exchange. All securities issued under the Offering will be subject to a statutory hold period of four months plus a day following the date of closing.

The securities offered have not been registered under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from the registration requirements. This press release shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy nor shall there be any sale of the securities in any State in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful.
