Precipitate Gold Corp.
(

non-brokered private placement of 22,454,333 units of the Company for gross proceeds of
C$2,179,390 (the "Offering").
Further to the Company's news releases dated December 7, 2021, and December 20, 2021, the
Offering consisted of two parts:
1
.
flow-through ("FT") units at $0.10 per unit, each unit consisting of one flow-through common share
and one-half of a warrant, each whole warrant exercisable at $0.15 per share for 24 months; and
2
.
non-flow-through ("NFT") units at $0.09 per unit, each unit consisting of one non-flow-through
common share and one-half of a warrant, each whole warrant exercisable at $0.15 per share for 24
months.
Jeffrey Wilson, Company President & CEO, stated, "We are pleased to complete this important offering.
Investor demand from supportive existing shareholders and new investors alike, allowed the Company to
upsize and oversubscribe the offering to facilitate a more aggressive and sustained exploration
campaign for the Newfoundland projects in 2022. Meanwhile, the additional non-flow-through dollars,
when combined with the existing treasury, provides a healthy working capital to keep the Company
moving forward with a view to leveraging value from our projects in the Dominican Republic. We
appreciate the support from investors and look forward to an active and prosperous 2022."
The proceeds from the Offering will be used for exploration and development of the Company's mineral
property interests in Newfoundland, Canada, and for general working capital purposes.
The gross
proceeds from the issuance of all flow-through shares will be used to incur Canadian Exploration
Expenses ("
CEE
"), and will qualify as "flow-through mining expenditures" under the
Income Tax Act
(Canada), which will be renounced to the purchasers of flow-through shares with an effective date no
later than December 31, 2021 in an aggregate amount no less than the proceeds raised from the issue
of the flow-through shares.
The Company paid commissions to finders under the placement consisting of aggregate commissions
of C$56,984 cash, 194,444 NFT Units, and the issuance of 825,600 finder's warrants.
Each finder's
warrant entitles the holder to purchase one common share of Precipitate until December 30, 2023.
All securities issued or issuable under the offering are subject to a statutory hold period of four months
plus a day following the date of closing, in addition to such other restrictions as may apply under
applicable securities laws in jurisdictions outside of Canada.
Final closing of this Offering is subject to final acceptance by the TSX Venture Exchange.

Offering Disclosure Statements
The Offering is available to investors in reliance on exemptions from the prospectus requirement set out
in (i) National Instrument 45-106
Prospectus Exemptions,
(ii) BC Instrument 45-534 -
Exemption from
Prospectus Requirements for Certain Trades to Existing Security Holders
; and (iii) BC Instrument 45-
536
Exemption from Prospectus Requirement for Certain Distributions Through an Investment Dealer
and the corresponding blanket orders and rules in the other Canadian jurisdictions that have adopted the
same or a similar exemption from the prospectus requirement (collectively, the "Investment Dealer
Exemption"). The Investment Dealer Exemption is available in each of Alberta, British Columbia,
Saskatchewan, Manitoba and New Brunswick to a person or company who has obtained advice
regarding the suitability of the investment from a person registered as an investment dealer in such
person's or company's jurisdiction. As required by the Investment Dealer Exemption, the Company
confirms there is no material fact or material change relating to the Company that has not been generally
disclosed.

in the Offering would constitute a "related party transaction" as defined under Multilateral Instrument 61-
101

Company expects such participation would be exempt from the formal valuation and minority
shareholder approval requirements of MI 61-101 as the fair market value of the Units subscribed for by

Company's market capitalization.
