BNKR Bunker Hill Mining Corp

The net proceeds from the Offering shall be primarily for a channel sampling and diamond core drilling program to verify historic resources in the Quill, Newgard and UTZ zones which were tabulated in 1991. These targets are in the upper and de-watered levels of the mine, accessed by either the Kellogg or Russell tunnels. The program is to commence on February 17, 2020.

The Company has also been continuing its critical maintenance program. This has included repairs to 80 feet of timbering in No. 2 Shaft, and the replacement of the submersible pump at the bottom of that shaft. These efforts were undertaken to ensure compliance with EPA requirements for water management within the mine.

The Offering will be subject to receipt of all necessary regulatory approvals. The securities issued in connection with the Offering will be subject to a customary four month and a day hold period in accordance with applicable Canadian securities laws and to a concurrent six month hold period in accordance with applicable U.S. securities laws.
