News Release

TerraX purchases the Tom Mine and Sickle Properties

Vancouver, B.C. – TerraX Minerals Inc. (TSX-V: TXR; Frankfurt: TX0; OTC Pink: TRXXF) is pleased to

announce the purchase of a 100% interest in the Tom Mine (6 sq km)and Sickle (2 sq. km) properties from Altamira

Gold Corp. These properties increase the area of the YCGP from 772 square kilometers to 780 square kilometers.

A map of the property locations is available here .

As part of the agreement, TerraX will pay Altamira a total of $25,000 cash and 250,000 shares of TerraX. Altamira

will retain a 2% NSR royalty. The agreement is subject to the approval of the TSX-V exchange and is expected to

close by the end of September .

David Suda, the Chief Executive Officer and President of TerraX stated “While results from our summer exploration

program continue to fill our pipeline of focused ta rgets; our team continues to build the world class land package.

We are pleased to have completed an amicable transaction with Altamira.”

The Tom Mine was a gold producer in the Yellowknife gold district from 1985-1997. The Tom and C vein systems

were accessed by ramp to 122 vertical metres over 3 00 metres of strike length. The Tom Mine production was

milled at the Ptarmigan Mine (January 12, 2018 pres s release) so separate production records for the T om Mine

are not available. The Tom Mine gold ore has the same characteristics as the Ptarmigan Mine which is free milling

with reported recovery of 94%. When the mine closed in 1997 the veins were still open at depths below the current

mine workings. (Source: The Operational History of Mines in the Northwest Territories, R. Silke, 2009; and

Treminco Resources Limited, Annual report 1990). Th e southern portion of the property is contiguous wi th the

Ptarmigan Gold Mine property.

The Sickle property is underlain by the Walsh Lake sediments, which are host to TerraX’s Mispickle Zon e

(September 22, 2016, press release). Several historic gold showings occur on the property with gold values up to

4 g/t.

Joseph Campbell, the Executive Chairman of the Board of TerraX, stated “The purchase of the Tom Mine property

gives TerraX access to another gold bearing vein sy stem similar to the past producing Ptarmigan Mine, which

TerraX owns. The property is also near paved road a ccess to Yellowknife and high-tension powerlines th at are

connected to the past producing Ptarmigan Gold Mine . The purchase of the Sickle property gives TerraX an

additional 5 kilometers of strike length in the gold bearing Walsh Lake sediments.”

The technical information contained in this news re lease has been approved by Joseph Campbell, the Exe cutive

Chairman of the Board of TerraX, who is a Qualified Person as defined in "National Instrument 43-101, Standards

of Disclosure for Mineral Projects."

hosted the high-grade Con and Giant gold mines. The project area contains multiple shears that are the recognized

hosts for gold deposits in the Yellowknife gold district, with innumerable gold showings and recent high-grade drill

results that serve to indicate the project's potential as a world-class gold district.
