Lithoquest Announces Increase in Previously Announced Non-Brokered Private Placement to up to $1.5 Million

VANCOUVER, B.C., June 9, 2021 – Lithoquest Resources Inc. (TSX-V: LDI) (“Lithoquest”, or the “Company”) today announced that due to significant demand, it has increased the size of the previously announced non-brokered private placement (the “Offering”) to sell up to 10,000,000 units of the Company (the “Units”) at a price of $0.10 per unit and up to 4,000,000 flow-through shares of the Company (the “FT Shares”) at a price of $0.125 per FT Share for gross proceeds of up to $1,500,000.

Each Unit will consist of one common share of the Company and one-half warrant (a “Warrant”) each whole Warrant entitling the holder thereof to acquire an additional common share (the “Warrant Share”) of the Company at an exercise price of $0.15 per Warrant Share for a period of 24 months from the date of issuance.

The Offering is being conducted pursuant to available prospectus exemptions including sales to accredited investors, family members, close friends and business associates of directors and officers of the Company, to purchasers who have obtained suitability advice from a registered investment dealer pursuant to the exemption set out in BC Instrument 45-536 (the “Investment Dealer Exemption”) and to existing shareholders of the Company pursuant to the exemption set out in British Columbia Securities Commission BC Instrument 45-534 (the “Existing Shareholder Exemption”).

The Offering is not subject to a minimum amount. The Company intends to use the gross proceeds from the Offering to advance its gold and base metal properties in northern Ontario and for general working capital purposes. The Offering is scheduled to close on or around June 18th and is subject to receipt of all necessary approvals of the TSX Venture Exchange.

The Existing Shareholder Exemption is available to shareholders residing in all Canadian jurisdictions. Shareholders of record of the Company as at May 28, 2021 (the “Record Date”) are eligible to participate under the Existing Shareholder Exemption. To rely upon the Existing Shareholder Exemption, the subscriber must: a) have been a shareholder of the Company on the Record Date and continue to hold shares of the Company until the date of closing of the Offering, b) be purchasing the Shares as a principal, and c) either may not subscribe for more than $15,000 of securities from the Company in any 12-month period or have received advice from a registered investment dealer regarding the suitability of the investment. Existing shareholders interested in participating in the Offering should consult their investment advisor or the Company directly. As required by the Investment Dealer Exemption, the Company confirms that there are no material facts or material changes that have not been disclosed.

The Offering may be closed in one or more tranches as subscriptions are received. The minimum subscription amount is for a combined dollar amount of $2,000.

All securities issued pursuant to the Offering will be subject to a four-month statutory hold period from the date of issuance in accordance with applicable Canadian securities laws.

The securities offered have not been registered under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “U.S. Securities Act”), or any state securities laws and may not be offered or sold absent registration or compliance with an applicable exemption from the registration requirements of the U.S. Securities Act and applicable state securities laws.

Subject to Exchange approval, the Company may pay cash finder’s fees equal to 6% of the gross proceeds of the Offering to certain finders and may issue such number finder’s warrants (“Finder’s Warrants”) as is equal to the 6% of the number of Units or FT Shares placed by such finder. The Finder’s Warrants will have the same terms as the Warrants forming part of the Units.
