Financings

MONTREAL, March 17, 2023 -- Harfang Exploration Inc. (“Harfang” or the “Corporation”) (TSX-V: HAR) announces today the

closing of a non-brokered private placement (the “ Offering”) consisting in the issuance of 1,842,106 flow-through common

shares at a price of $0.38 per share for an amount of $700,000. All securities issued in connection with the Offering are

subject to a hold period of four months and one day. The Offering is subject to the approval of the TSX Venture Exchange. The

proceeds of the Offering will be used for our exploration projects in the Eeyou Istchee James Bay region of Québec.

Commented Ian Campbell, President and CEO, “We are aggressively pursuing our dual mandate of gold and lithium

exploration in the Eeyou Istchee James Bay region of Québec. Our maiden drill program at the Lake Menarik gold property is

well underway consisting of approximately 18 holes and we expect initial assay results in April. Furthermore, we are very

excited about the upcoming field season which will continue to further advance Lake Menarik and at the same time include a

field program evaluating our recently staked lithium projects distributed throughout the region. These highly prospective

properties were selected based on our extensive geological knowledge of the region as well as our analyses of the

comprehensive Sigeom lake sediment database. This analysis highlighted a number of calculated geochemical anomalies,

some of which displayed a similar signature to those proximal to existing lithium deposits in the region. We will also be

following up on the pegmatites discovered at the Serpent-Radisson gold property last summer which yielded anomalous

lithium, tantalum and cesium results from a brief prospecting program in the unexplored southeastern part of the property.”
