Group Ten Completes $1.2 Million Private Placement Financing

November 23, 2018 – Vancouver, BC - Group Ten Metals Inc. (TSX.V: PGE; OTC: PGEZF, FSE: 5D32) (the

“Company” or “Group Ten”) announces that it has completed a private placement for aggregate proceeds of

$1,200,000 through the issuance of eight million units at a price of $0.15 per unit. Each unit consists of one

common share of the Company and one half-share purchase warrant. Each full warrant (a “Warrant”) entitles

the holder to acquire one common share of the Company at an exercise price of $0.225 per Warrant share for

a period of 36 months following the closing date of the private placement. If the closing price of the Company’s

common shares on the TSX Venture Exchange is greater than 30 cents per share for a period of 10 consecutive

trading days, the company may elect to accelerate the expiry date of part or all of the Warrants, at any date

that is four months and one day after the closing date, by giving notice thereof to the holders of the Warrants.

In such case, that portion of the Warrants would be subject to an expiry date that is 30 business days after the

date on which such notice is given by the Company.

President and CEO Michael Rowley stated: “We are pleased with the level of interest from new shareholders

alongside the support from our existing shareholders in completing this private placement. Our newest asset,

the Stillwater West Project, continues to receive significant interest based on the potential for discovery of

large-scale ‘Platreef-style’ PGM-Ni-Cu systems, based on parallels with the Bushveld Complex in South Africa.

The team has been working hard on both the exploration and corporate fronts, and we look forward to

reporting results in the coming weeks and months.”

Greg Johnson, Chairman of both Group Ten and the Metallic Group said: “We are pleased to complete the

Group Ten financing, which was undertaken concurrently with independent private placements at the two

other companies that make up the Metallic Group, being Metallic Minerals and Granite Creek Copper. In

aggregate, the Metallic Group companies anticipate raising in excess of $3 million in new financing despite

what continues to be challenging market conditions."

Mr. Johnson continued: "The Metallic Group founders and team members include a number of highly

successful explorationists formerly with some of the industry's leading explorers/developers and major

producers. Over the past two years the team has been building a platform of exploration companies focused

on consolidating large brownfields assets adjacent to some of the industry's highest-grade producers of

platinum group metals, silver and copper. We believe this strategy creates the opportunity for discovery of

large, high-quality deposits in these historic and politically stable mining districts through the application of

new models and technology by our experienced exploration teams.”

"By acquiring these low political risk, high potential properties in the low part of the metal price cycle, we are

creating value for shareholders that would not likely be available during other parts of the cycle. With the

acquisition of these key, district-scale assets complete, our experienced teams are undertaking a systematic

approach to exploration to facilitate new discoveries in these proven brownfields districts, where existing

road, power and other infrastructure may allow for greatly reduced capital costs and faster timelines for

development when compared to remote greenfields deposits.”

"Based on the geologic target models for each of the Metallic Group companies', along with the current

depressed stage of the metal price cycle, we believe that each of the three companies in the group has the

potential for significant growth over the next several years, through the potential discovery and advancement

of new resources in the Stillwater PGM-Ni-Cu district, Keno Hill silver district, and Carmacks Copper district.

We look forward to reporting results of our 2018 work programs in the coming weeks and months."

The proceeds of the financing will be primarily used on the Company's Stillwater West project and for general

working capital purposes. All securities issued pursuant to the placement are subject to a statutory four month

and one day hold period from the date of issuance.
