Placement
NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION TO UNITED STATES NEWSWIRE SERVICES OR FOR DISSEMINATION IN THE UNITED
STATES
VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Sept. 22, 2022 -- Trillium Gold Mines Inc. (TSXV: TGM) (FRA:0702) (“Trillium Gold” or the
"Company") is pleased to announce the closing of its previously announced brokered private placement (the “Offering”) for
gross proceeds of C$4,081,510, which includes the exercise of the majority of the Agent’s option. The Offering was led by Red
Cloud Securities Inc. (the “Agent”) and is comprised of the sale of 9,678,150 units of the Company (each, a "Unit") at a price of
C$0.20 per Unit and 9,537,244 flow-through units of the Company (each, a "FT Unit") at a price of C$0.225 per FT Unit.
Each Unit consists of one common share of the Company (each a “Unit Share”) and one half of one common share purchase
warrant (each whole warrant, a “Warrant”). Each FT Unit consists of one common share of the Company issued as a “flow-
through share” within the meaning of the Income Tax Act (Canada), (each, a “FT Share”) and one half of one Warrant. Each
Warrant entitles the holder to purchase one common share of the Company (each, a “Warrant Share”) at a price of C$0.30 at
any time on or before September 22, 2024.
Management and long-standing shareholders of the Company subscribed for over $1.3 million of the financing including Russell
Starr, President & CEO who subscribed for $500,000, and Luke Norman, Executive Chairman who subscribed for $225,000.
Russell Starr commented, “We are very pleased to close on this oversubscribed financing in challenging market conditions.
This will enable Trillium to continue to advance its exciting program over the 100 km Confederation Belt project holdings.
Participation from management and our long-standing shareholders clearly underscores our commitment to and confidence in
the potential of our district scale land position."
The issuances of Units and FT Units to such insiders are considered related party transactions under Multilateral Instrument
61-101 Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions ("MI 61-101"). The Company relied on exemptions from
the formal valuation and minority approval requirements in sections 5.5(a) and 5.7(1)(b) of MI 61-101, respectively, in respect of
such insider participation.
Proceeds from the sale of FT Shares will be used to incur "Canadian exploration expenses" as defined in subsection 66.1(6) of
the Income Tax Act (Canada) and "flow through mining expenditures" as defined in subsection 127(9) of the Income Tax Act
(Canada). Such proceeds will be renounced to the subscribers with an effective date not later than December 31, 2022, in the
aggregate amount of not less than the total amount of gross proceeds raised from the issue of FT Shares.
The Company intends to use the proceeds raised from the Offering for exploration of the Company’s Red Lake properties, as
well as for general working capital purposes. The Unit Shares, FT Shares, Warrants and Warrant Shares will be subject to a
four-month hold period ending on January 23, 2023.
As consideration for its services, the Agent received cash commissions of C$196,943 and 909,434 broker warrants, with each
broker warrant entitling the Agent to purchase one common share of the Company at a price of C$0.20 until September 22,
2024.
The securities described herein have not been, and will not be, registered under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as
amended (the “U.S. Securities Act”), or any U.S. state securities laws, and accordingly may not be offered or sold to, or for

and all applicable state securities laws. This press release does not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation to buy any
