PINECREST ANNOUNCES CLOSING OF $3.0 MILLION FINANCING

June 17, 2020 TSX-V: PCR

Vancouver, British Columbia: Pinecrest Resources Ltd. (TSX-V: PCR) (the "Company" or "Pinecrest") is

pleased to announce the closing of the non-brokered private placement of 15,000,000 common shares (the

“Private Placement”) previously announced on May 19th, 2020 at a price of $0.20 per common share for

outstanding with major shareholders including management and board 39%, Ruffer LLP 9% and other

Luke Alexander, President and Chief Executive Officer of Pinecrest Resources, stated: “We would like to

welcome our new shareholders who participated in the $ 3.0 million financing and thank existing holders

who continue to support the Company by increasing their ownership . Combined with the institutional

investors who recently purchased Kinross’ 17% equity stake in the Company, we could not have asked for

backing from a better group of shareholders. We are currently planning for a Q3 2020 start for a resource

delineation and discovery drilling program at our Enchi gold project. We have also started work to update

Enchi’s current 1.0 million ounce NI 43-101 inferred resource to include additional 2017 drill results and

utilizing metal prices and cut-off grades that better reflect today’s gold price environment. Pinecrest is

uniquely positioned in the market with management and the board owning 39% of the Company, which

aligns us with investors in wanting to create significant shareholder value.”

In consideration for introducing certain subscribers to the Private Placement, the Company issued 134,750

common shares and paid cash finders' fees totalling $6,750 to certain finders.

All securities issued to the placees under the Private Placement are subject to a four -month hold period

expiring October 18, 2020 under applicable Canadian securities legislation and stock exchange policy. The

Company intends to use the proceeds of the Private Placement for exploration drilling and resource

delineation, updating the resource and general working capital.

Certain insiders of the Company acquired 4,980,000 comm on shares pursuant to the Private Placement.

The issuance of common shares to insiders is considered to be a related party transaction within the meaning
