the "Company"), is pleased to report that it has closed the final tranche of a private placement financing
announced on March 18, 2019 (“Financing”) and has also renewed the Star mining lease in Nevada.
Final Tranche of Financing
In connection with the final tranche of the F inancing, Getchell Gold has issued 2,453,333 Units at $0.15

The net proceeds of the F inancing will be used for exploration of the Hot Springs Peak project as well as
exploration of its other Nevada projects, property payments and for general working capital. Each Unit
consists of one common share (a “Share”) and one -half non-transferable share purchase warrant (each
whole warrant, a “Warrant”). Each Warrant entitles the holder to acquire an additional common share at
a price of $0.25 per share until July 12, 2021, subject to an accelerated exercise provision that if over a
period of five (5) consecutive trading days between the date that is four months following the closing date
and the expiry of the Warrants, the closing price of the common shares of the Issuer exceeds $0.25, the
Company may, within 30 days of such an occurrence, give written notice (via news release) to the holders
of the Warrants that the Warrants will expire at 5:00 p.m. (Eastern time) on the 30th day following the
giving of notice (the “Accelerated Exercise Period”) unless exercised by the hold ers prior to such date.
Any Warrants which remain unexercised at the end of the Accelerated Exercise Period will automatically
expire at that time.
In connection with the final tranche, the Company also issued 134,222 Compensation Options (each a
“Compensation Option”) and paid an aggregate of $34,833 to qualified finders. Each Compensation
Option is exercisable to acquire one common share at $0.15 per Unit until July 12, 2024 and one-half of a
non-transferable share purchase warrant. Each whole warrant entitles the holder to acquire one common
share at $0.25 per share until July 12, 2021.
All securities issued pursuant to the private placement are subject to a four month and one day hold
period from the date of closing.
One director participated in the Financing for 100,000 Units. The participation of this individual is
considered to be a related party transaction pursuant to Multilateral Instrument 61 -101 – Protection of
Minority Security Holders in Special Transaction (“MI 61-101”). The Company determined that exemptions
from the formal valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements of MI 61 -101 were available
for the related party transaction pursuant to Section 5.5(a) and Section 5.7(1)(a) of MI 61-101 on the basis
that the fair market value of the transaction involving the related party was not more than 25% of the
