VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Aug. 27, 2018 -- AsiaBaseMetals Inc. (the "Company") (TSX-V: "ABZ") is pleased to
announce that it has completed its non-brokered private placement (the " Private Placement ") for aggregate proceeds of
C$77,520. On August 24, 2018, the Company issued 185,000 flow-through common shares (each, a " Flow-Through Share ")
at a price of $0.285 per Flow-Through Share, and 87,000 non-flow-through common shares (each, a " Non-Flow-Through
Share ") at a price of $0.285 per Non-Flow-Through Share.
The proceeds from the Private Placement will be used for the exploration work on the Gnome Zinc Project and for general
corporate and working capital purposes. The Private Placement is subject to acceptance by the TSX Venture Exchange.
All securities issued in connection with the Private Placement are subject to a four month hold period that will expire on

Neither the TSX Venture Exchange nor its Regulation Services Provider (as that term is defined in the policies of the TSX
Venture Exchange) accepts responsibility for the adequacy or accuracy of this release.
Multilateral Instrument 61-101
Under the Private Placement, the following insiders of the Company purchased common shares: Raj Chowdhry, President,
CEO and a director of the Company, purchased 137,500 Flow-Through Shares under the Private Placement; Henry Park, a
director of the Company, purchased 87,000 Non-Flow-Through Shares through a company controlled by Mr. Park; and Jason
Sutherland, a director of the Company, purchased 20,000 Flow-Through Shares under the Private Placement. Their
participation is considered to be a "related party transaction" as defined under Multilateral Instrument 61-101 (" MI 61-101").
The transaction is exempt from the formal valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements of MI 61-101 as neither the
fair market value of the securities to be distributed in the Private Placement nor the consideration to be received for those
securities, in so far as the Private Placement involves the insiders, exceeds $2,500,000. The Company did not file a material
change report more than 21 days before the expected closing of the Private Placement as the details of the Private Placement
and the participation therein by related parties of the Company were not settled until shortly prior to closing and the Company
wished to close on an expedited basis for sound business reasons.
