Canterra Minerals Significantly Increases Land Position in Central Newfoundland, Including 15
Kilometres of Strike Length along Rogerson Lake Structural Corridor
Vancouver, B.C. (June 23, 2022) – Canterra Minerals Corporation (TSXV:CTM, OTCQB: CTMCF) ("Canterra" or the
"Company") is pleased to announce that it has increased its land holdings in central Newfoundland. This increase in
land position includes significant claims a long the Rogerson Lake Structural Corrid or at the new Clipper Brook
Property where the Company is targeting gold mineralization similar to that found at Wilding, and additional claims
adjacent to the Boomerang Project, a volcanogenic massive sulphide project.
“We’re pleased to expand our property coverage across a significant section of the Rogerson Lake Structural Corridor
and Valentine Lake Shear Zone with this new acquisition at Clipper Brook,”, said Company President Cooper Quinn.
“This geologic setting hosts many signif icant gold deposits in Newfoundland, including Marathon Gold’s Valentine
Gold Project deposits, and with the new staking Canterra now controls approximately 65 kilometres (“km”) of strike
length of this structure . In addition, the acquisition of adjoining licenses at Boomerang adds to the blue sky and
exploration potential of this massive sulphide asset, where Canterra has acquired significant high grade gold, silver,
zinc, and lead resources as part of a strategic suite of VMS projects from NorZinc (TSE: NZC) (see news release dated
November 15, 2021). We’re looking forward to the technical team generating new drill targets moving forward, as
the past results from this property are spectacular.”
Clipper Brook Property
The Clipper Brook Property comprises 5 mineral licenses totaling 122.5 square kilometres (“ km2”) along the
northeast strike extent of the Rogerson Lake Structural Corridor , with approximately 15 km of additional strike of
this unit staked. In addition, the Clipper Brook licenses include the contact of the Crippleback Lake Quartz Monzonite,
believed to be a Neoproterozoic granitoid unit similar to the V alentine Lake Intrusive Suite, which host Marathon
Gold's (TSX: MOZ) Valentine Gold Project. The similarity of the geology underlying the Clipper Brook Property to that
underlying the Company’s Wilding Project and the Valentine Gold Project suggests the high potential for gold
discoveries in this area.

Boomerang Property Expansion
Two new licenses totaling 7.25 km 2 have been staked adjacent to the Company’s Boom erang Property, which
contains significant Volcanogenic Massive Sulphide (VMS) resources at the Boomerang and Domino deposits, which
are outlined in the table below. Boomerang also has potential for further expansion , with several untested
geophysical (both gravity and magnetic) and geochemical soil anomalies.
