Blue Star Gold Corp. (TSXV: BAU)
(OTCQB: BAUFF) (FSE: 5WP0)
("Blue Star" or the "Company")
announces
that, further to its news
release of May 17, 2023, and subject to the approval of the TSX Venture Exchange (the "
Exchange
"), it
has closed the first tranche of its non-brokered private placement (the "
Private Placement
") issuing
6,250,000 units (each, a "
Unit
") at a price of $0.40 per Unit for aggregate gross proceeds of
$2,500,000. Each Unit consists of one common share (each, a "
Share

transferable common share purchase warrant (each whole warrant, a "
Warrant
") exercisable at $0.50
per Share for a period of 24 months (the "
Expiry Date
") from the closing date of the Private Placement.
No finder's fees were paid in connection with the closing of the first tranche.
All securities issued are subject to a four-month and one day hold period pursuant to securities laws in
Canada and, where applicable, the Exchange Hold Period. The Company intends to use the net
proceeds from the Private Placement for exploration of the Company's projects in Nunavut and for
general working capital.
Dr. Georg Pollert, a director and controlling shareholder of the Company, and his wife, Gabriele Pollert,
together purchased an aggregate of 6,250,000 Units pursuant to the Private Placement. As a result, the
issuance of these Units pursuant to the Private Placement is considered a related party transaction (as
defined under Multilateral Instrument 61-101 Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special
Transactions ("
MI 61-101
")). The Company relied upon the "Fair Market Value Not More Than 25% of
Market Capitalization" exemption from the formal valuation and minority shareholder approval
requirements, respectively, under MI 61-101.
