Brigade Resource Corp. Completes Amalgamation with Subsidiaries

Vancouver, March 8, 2017 - Brigade Resource Corp.. (the "Company" or "Brigade") announces that effective March 3, 2017, it has completed a vertical short-form amalgamation (the "Amalgamation") with its wholly-owned subsidiaries Brigadier Exploration Corp., Battalion Capital Corp. and Hussar Exploration Corp. (collectively, the "Subsidiaries"), pursuant to Section 273 of the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia).

The amalgamated corporation will continue to operate the business of the Company under the name "Brigade Resource Corp". The Amalgamation did not require shareholder approval and was undertaken to simplify the Company's corporate structure and to reduce internal administration costs.
