Sudbury, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - February 1, 2022) - Transition Metals Corp (TSXV: XTM)
("Transition", the "Company") is pleased to announce that the Company has sold its 100% interest in the
Mongowin project to McFarlane Lake Mining ("MFM"), a corporation that trades on the NEO Exchange

and 70 kilometres southwest of Sudbury and is adjacent to MFM's past gold producing McMillan

totaling 2,605 hectares (the "Property").
Pursuant to the purchase and sale agreement with MFM, Transition, received total consideration
consisting of $145,000 cash, $500,000 worth of MFM stock and a 1.5% Net Smelter Return royalty
(NSR) from any commercial production from the Property.
Additionally, beginning on the fifth anniversary
of the Purchase Agreement, MFM will pay Transition advanced royalty payments of $25,000 per year (in
cash or common shares) to a maximum total of $250,000 (in cash or shares).
Lastly, upon the
commercial production of mineral products from the Property, Transition will be entitled to a one-time
payment of $2,500,000.
Transition CEO Scott McLean commented, "
The Mongowin transaction with MFM is another
demonstration of the success of our Project Generator business model.
Transition identified the
opportunity, staked the property and confirmed the target potential.
We have now been able to
leverage this initial seed capital investment significantly while still preserving the upside potential
through future milestone payments and a royalty.
We look forward to working with McFarlane Lake
Mining to advance the Property.

About Transition Metals Corp
Transition Metals Corp (TSXV: XTM) is a Canadian-based, multi-commodity project generator that
specializes in converting new exploration ideas into Canadian discoveries in Canada. The award-
winning team of geoscientists has extensive exploration experience in established, emerging and
historic mining camps and actively develops and tests new ideas for discovering mineralization in places
that others have not looked, which often allows the company to acquire properties inexpensively. The
team is rigorous in its fieldwork and combines traditional techniques with newer ones to help unearth
compelling prospects and drill targets. Transition uses the project generator business model to acquire
and advance multiple exploration projects simultaneously, thereby maximizing shareholder exposure to
discovery and capital gain. Joint venture partners earn an interest in the projects by funding a portion of
higher-risk drilling and exploration, allowing Transition to conserve capital and minimize shareholder's
equity dilution. The Company has an expanding portfolio that currently includes more than 25 gold,
copper, nickel and platinum projects across Canada.
About McFarlane Lake Mining
McFarlane Lake is a Canadian gold exploration and development company focused on the acquisition
and assessment of six gold properties; two east of Sudbury in a region consistently on the top gold
exploration opportunities as identified by Ontario Geological Survey, an additional two straddling the
Ontario - Manitoba border which are part of an executed purchase agreement and which are
geologically similar to a number of significant gold deposits in Ontario. The two remaining properties
under option are located in the historic Timmins area along the prolific Porcupine Destor fault, home to
dozens of mines over the last century and several current producing mines. Three of the properties are
past producers of gold and all six properties are near infrastructure (roads, power), significant population
bases and in a geo-politically stable environment. McFarlane Lake has option agreements to acquire
100% of all six properties.
