Sitka Gold Announces Closing of $1.1 Million Private
Placement
VANCOUVER, CANADA – October 31th, 2019: Sitka Gold Corp. (“Sitka” or the
“Company”) (CSE: SIG; FSE: 1RF) announces that it has closed its previously announced
non-brokered private placement (the “Offering”) for total gross proceeds of $1,102,271.94
through the issuance of 10,020,654 units (the “Units”) at a price of $0.11 per Unit. Each Unit
consists of one common share and one-half of one common share purchase warrant (each
whole common share purchase warrant, a “Warrant”). Each whole Warrant will entitle the holder
to purchase an additional common share at a price of $0.16 for a period of 2 years from the date
of issuance.
Net proceeds from the financing will be used to conduct drill programs at the Company’s Burro
Creek Gold property in Arizona and its Alpha Gold property in Nevada and for general working
capital.
CEO and Director of Sitka Gold, Cor Coe (P.Geo), commented, “We are excited to have this
significant financing closed. This new capital enables us to proceed with our much anticipated
drilling program to update and potentially expand the historical gold and silver mineral resource
estimate at Burro Creek. The historical resource estimate includes bonanza grade drill core
intercepts such as 15.1 feet of 7.99 g/t gold and 192.72 g/t silver, including 3.4 feet of 31.80 g/t
gold and 759.00 g/t silver*. We are also very excited to drill test our Carlin-type gold deposit
target at Alpha Gold in the heart of the Carlin District in Nevada”.

In connection with the Offering, the Company has paid commissions totaling $22,585.42 and
issued 205,322 broker warrants. Each broker warrant is exercisable to acquire one common
share of the Company at an exercise price of $0.16 for two years from the date of issuance.
Pursuant to the Offering, John Greg Dawson, a director of the Company, acquired 50,000 Units;
Donald Penner, President and a director of the Company, acquired 225,000 Units; Corwin Coe,
CEO and a director of the Company, acquired 225,000 Units; Ryan Coe, a director of the
Company, acquired 520,000 Units; and Peter G. Maclean, a director of the Company, acquired
228,000 Units (together the “Insiders”). Insider participation in the Offering totalled 1,248,000
Units. The Insiders’ participation is considered to be “related party transactions” as defined
under Multilateral Instrument 61-101 (“MI 61-101”). The transactions are exempt from the formal
valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements of MI 61-101 as neither the fair
market value of the securities to be distributed in the Offering nor the consideration to be
received for those securities, in so far as the Offering involves the Insiders, exceeds 25% of the
Company’s market capitalization.
