Cooks Brook, Nova Scotia, August 16, 2019 – ScoZinc Mining Ltd. ( TSX-V: SZM) (“ScoZinc” or the “ Company”)
wishes to provide an update to its previously announced August 14, 2019 news release regarding a non-brokered
private placement financing for aggregate gross proceeds of C$1,000,000 (the "Offering"). The Offering will be
conducted through the sale of units of the Company (“Units”) at a price of C$0.40 per Unit. Each Unit shall
consist of one common share of the Company (“Common Share”) and one Common Share purchase warrant (a
“Warrant”), with each full warrant exercisable into a Common Share at a price of $0.55 per Common Share for
24 months following the closing of the Offering. Holders of Warrants shall be restricted from exercising any

20% of the then issued and outstanding Common Shares. The Company shall have the option to increase the size
of the Offering by an additional C$300,000.
It is anticipated that following the completion of the now fully allocated first tranche of the Offering for the gross

independent director of the Company, and Mr. Mark Haywood will be appointed as the President and Chief Executive

100%-owned ScoZinc mine in Nova Scotia (the “ScoZinc Mine”), and for general working capital purposes.
Pursuant to the Company’s Stock Option Plan, the Board of Directors has granted certain consultants to the
company a total of 65,000 Stock Options at an exercise price of C$0.45 each. All Options are fully vesting on

CAUTIONARY STATEMENTS
Neither the TSX-V nor its Regulation Services Provider (as that term is defined in the policies of the TSX-V) accepts
responsibility for the adequacy or accuracy of this news release.
This News Release includes certain forward-looking statements which are not comprised of historical facts.
Forward-looking statements include estimates and statements that describe the Company’s future plans,
objectives or goals, including words to the effect that the Company or management expects a stated condition or
result to occur. Forward-looking statements may be identified by such terms as “believes”, “anticipates”, “expects”,
“estimates”, “may”, “could”, “would”, “will”, or “plan”. Since forward -looking statements are based on
assumptions and address future events and conditions, by their very nature they involve inherent risks and
uncertainties. Although these statements are based on information currently available to the Company, the
Company provides no assurance that actual results will meet management’s expectations. Risks, uncertainties and
other factors involved with forward-looking information could cause actual events, results, performance, prospects
and opportunities to differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking information.
Forward looking information in this news release includes, but is not limited to, the Company’s objectives, goals or
future plans, statements, potential mineralization, exploration and development results, the estimation of mineral
resources, exploration and mine development plans, timing of the commencement of operations and estimates of
market conditions. In particular, the Company has not made a production decision with respect to the ScoZinc
Mine. The Company has not completed a feasibility study or established the economic viability of the Project or
proposed operations on the ScoZinc Mine, and no mineral reserves have been established for the ScoZinc Mine
that would support a production decision. Mineral exploration projects which are put into production without first
establishing mineral reserves and completing a feasibility study have historically had a higher risk of economic or
technical failure. There can be no assurance that forward-looking statements will prove to be accurate and actual
results and future events could differ materially from those anticipated in such statements. Important factors that
could cause actual results to differ materially from ScoZinc’s expectations include, among others, the ability of
ScoZinc to receive the necessary regulatory approvals to complete the Offering, availability and costs of financing
needed in the future, changes in equity markets, risks related to international operations, the actual results of
current exploration activities, delays in the development of projects, conclusions of economic evaluations and
changes in project parameters as plans continue to be refined as well as future prices of metals, as well as those
factors discussed in the section entitled “Risk Factors” in ScoZinc’s Management’s Discussion and Analysis.
Although ScoZinc has attempted to identify important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially,
there may be other factors that cause results not to be as anticipated, estimated or intended. There can be no
assurance that such statements will prove to be accurate as actual results and future events could differ materially
from those anticipated in such statements. Accordingly, readers should not place undue reliance on forward-
looking statements.
