Toronto, ON – June 3, 2020 – Galway Metals Inc. (TSXV: GWM) (“Galway Metals” or the "Company"),
is pleased to report that in connection with its previously announced best efforts private placement offering,
the Company and a syndicate of underwriters led by Paradigm Capital Inc. (t he “Lead Agent”), and
including Laurentian Bank Securities Inc. (collectively, the “ Agents”), have agreed to increase the size of
the offering to total gross proceeds of $17.35 million . The Company will now issue (the “Offering”) up to
17,877,300 common shares of the Company that qualify as charity “flow -through shares” (within the
meaning of subsection 66(15) of the Income Tax Act (Canada)) (the " Charity FT Shares ") at a price of
$0.635 per Charity FT Share and up to 13,636,400 hard-dollar common shares of the Company (“ HD
Shares”) at a price of $0.44 per HD Share (together, collectively hereinafter referred as the “ Offered
Securities”).
Mr. Eric Sprott has agreed to purchase C$3.0 million of HD Shares in the Offering. Assuming a full
subscription under the Offering, f ollowing the closing of the Offering, Mr. Sprott’s fully diluted ownership
interest in the Company would be approximately 3.8%.
The Offering is subject to regulatory approval and all securities issued pursuant to the Offering will have a
hold period of four months and one day. The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the private
placement to fund ongoing exploration, to update the Company’s technical studies, and for general
corporate purposes. The gross proceeds received by the Company from the sale of the Charity FT Shares
will be used to incur Canadian Exploration Expenses (''CEE'') that are ''flow -through'' mining expenditures
(as such terms are defined in the Income Tax Act (Canada)). Such gross proceeds will be renounced to the
subscribers with an effective date not later than December 31, 2020, in the aggregate amount of not less
than the total amount of the gross proceeds raised from the issue of Charity FT Shares.
In consideration for their services, the Agents will receive a cash commission equal to 6% of the gross
proceeds of the Offering. The Agents will also receive options exercisable to acquire that number of HD
Shares equal to 6% of the number of total Offered Securities sold under the Offering at a price at C$0.44
for a period of 24 months following the closing of the Offering.
The securities have not been, and will not be, registered under the Unites States Securities Act of 1933, as
amended (the “U.S. Securities Act”), or any U.S. state security laws, and may not be offered or sold in the
Unites States without registration under the U.S. Securities Act and all applicable state securities laws or
compliance with requirements of an applicable exemption therefrom. This press release shall not constitute
an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy securities in the Unites States, nor shall there be any
sale of these securities in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful.
About Galway Metals Inc.
Galway Metals is focused on two gold projects in Canada, Clarence Stream, an emerging gold district in
New Brunswick, and Estrades, the former producing, high- grade VMS mine in Quebec. The Company
began trading on January 4, 2013, after the successful spinout to existing shareholders from Galway
Resources following the completion of the US$340 million sale of that company. With substantially the same
management team and Board of Directors, Galway Metals is keenly intent on creating similar value as it
had with Galway Resources.

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

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, completion of the Private
Placement, exploration res ults, potential mineralization, the estimation of mineral resources, exploration
and mine development plans, timing of the commencement of operations and estimates of market
conditions. Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from such forward-looking information
include, but are not limited to the inability to complete the Private Placement on the terms as announced or
at all, failure to identify mineral resources, failure to convert estimated mineral resources to reserves, the
inability to complete a feasibility study which recommends a production decision, the preliminary nature of
metallurgical test results, delays in obtaining or failures to obtain required governmental, environmental or
other project approvals, political risks, uncertainties relating to the availability and costs of financing needed
in the future, changes in equity markets, inflation, changes in exchange rates, fluctuations in commodity
prices, delays in the development of projects, capital, operating and reclamation costs varying significantly
from estimates and the other risks involved in the mineral exploration and development industry, and those
risks set out in the Company’s public documents filed on SEDAR. Although the Company believes that the
assumptions and factors used in preparing the forward- looking information in this news release are
reasonable, undue reliance should not be placed on such information, which only applies as of the date of
this news release, and no assurance can be given that such events will occur in the disclosed time frames
