(the "Company") (TSX-V:NXN) is pleased to announce it has closed its previously announced non-brokered private placement to raise gross proceeds of approximately C$4,270,525 (the "Offering"). The Offering was upsized from C$1,000,000 on June 1, 2018 due to strong demand. Red Cloud Klondike Strike Inc. and a number of others acted as finders in connection with the Offering.

The net proceeds from the Offering will primarily be used for exploration at the Company's Mt. Roe Project in the Pilbara region of Western Australia and general working capital purposes.
Christopher McFadden, Chief Executive Officer commented, "It is very pleasing to close the private placement with such strong support from new and exisiting shareholders. The funds raised will allow us to undertake detailed work at our exciting project in the Pilbara region of Western Australia over the next 12 months."
In connection with the Offering, the Company paid the finders a cash fee up to 7.0% of the gross proceeds raised by the finders and finders were granted common share purchase warrants (the "Finder Warrants") entitling them to subscribe for that number of Common Shares equal to up to 7.0% of the aggregate number of Units sold by the finders. Each Finder Warrant is exercisable at a price of C$0.18 until June 14, 2021.
