Pacific Ridge Announces Amended Fyre Lake

Terms and $250,000 Cash Payment

Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - December 29, 2021) - Pacific Ridge Exploration Ltd.

(TSXV: PEX) (OTCQB: PEXZF) ("Pacific Ridge" or the "Company") has agreed to amended payment

terms to its agreement with BMC Minerals Ltd. ("BMC") for the option to purchase Pacific Ridge's Fyre

Lake property, Yukon, as originally announced by the Company on December 28, 2016.

Previously, the final payment to Pacific Ridge of $1.0 million was due upon BMC obtaining production

financing for its Kudz Ze Kayah project, but in any event no later than December 31, 2021. As

renegotiated, BMC has paid $250,000 to Pacific Ridge and will pay $850,000 by December 31, 2022

or within 10 business days of BMC listing on an internationally recognized stock exchange, whichever

comes first. BMC will continue to pay $75,000 to Pacific Ridge every six months until the final payment of

$850,000 has been paid, with the next payment being due June 30, 2022. All other terms and conditions

of the agreement remain the same, including the bonus payment of $1,000,000 that is due if and when

BMC's Kudz Ze Kayah property has reached commercial production for one year.

About Pacific Ridge

Our goal is to become one of the leading copper-gold exploration companies in British Columbia.

Pacific Ridge's flagship project is the Kliyul copper-gold project, located in the Quesnel Trough,

approximately 50 km southeast of Centerra Gold Inc's Kemess mine. In addition to Kliyul, the Company's

project portfolio includes the RDP copper-gold project and the Redton copper-gold project, both located

in British Columbia. Pacific Ridge will continue to search for projects that offer discovery opportunity in

our regions of expertise.
