The net proceeds from the Offering will be used for operational expenses and other general corporate purposes including increasing investor awareness, investor relations and marketing expenses.

In connection with the closing of the Offering the Company issued 670,900 finder's shares (the "Finder's Shares"), 1,013,900 finder's warrants (the "Finder's Warrants") and paid a cash commission of $60,834 to certain arm's length finders, including Canaccord Genuity Corp. and Haywood Securities Inc. Each Finder's warrant entitles the holder thereof to purchase one Share (a "Finder's Warrant Share") at a price of $0.075 per Finder's Warrant Share until July 31, 2026.

The Offering remains subject to final acceptance from the TSX Venture Exchange (the "TSXV"). All securities issued in connection with the Offering are subject to a four-month hold period from the closing date under applicable Canadian securities laws, in addition to such other restrictions as may apply under applicable securities laws of jurisdictions outside Canada.

The securities described herein have not been, and will not be, registered under the U.S. Securities Act, as amended, or any state securities laws, and accordingly, may not be offered or sold within the United States or the US persons except in compliance with the registration requirements of the U.S. Securities Act and applicable state securities requirements or pursuant to exemptions therefrom.
