VANCOUVER, Sept. 02, 2020 - AsiaBaseMetals Inc. (TSX.V: ABZ) (the “Company”), Mantra Exploration Inc. (“Mantra Exploration”), Mantra Pharma Inc. (“Mantra Pharma”) and Mantra 2 Real Estate Inc. (“Mantra 2 Real Estate” and collectively with Mantra Exploration and Mantra Pharma, the “Mantra Entities”) are pleased to announce that, further to the Company’s news release dated July 20, 2020, it has now closed its previously announced spin-out transaction (the “Transaction”) which was completed by way of a court approved statutory plan of arrangement under the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia) (the "Plan of Arrangement").

In accordance with the Plan of Arrangement, among other things:

  1. the Company transferred: (i) Mantra Exploration its Jean Iron Ore Jean Project, located within the Thunder Bay Mining District in Ontario, Canada; (ii) Mantra Pharma certain cannabis interests in the Republic of Croatia; and (iii) Mantra 2 Real Estate its option to acquire certain real property interests; and
  2. in consideration of the foregoing, the shareholders of the Company (the “ABZ Shareholders”) as of the record date received one common share in the capital of each of the Mantra Entities, in exchange for each share of the Company held,

all as more fully set forth in the Company’s management information circulated dated July 17, 2020 and the Company’s news release dated August 13, 2020, in each case available under Company’s profile on www.sedar.com.

As a result of the Transaction, the Mantra Entities ceased to be wholly owned subsidiaries of the Company and the ABZ Shareholders became shareholders of each of the Mantra Entities. The Company retained its remaining assets and working capital and will continue as a mineral exploration company.

Raj Chowdhry, the President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company, stated:

“This journey started with a Capital Pool Company, and through two spin-out transactions we have now delivered a third generation of companies, at no additional cost to ABZ Shareholders. Along this journey the ABZ Shareholders have participated in a recently permitted copper project (Sandfire Resources America Inc. – market cap approx. $200m), an exciting Cobalt/Zinc. exploration project adjacent to an established Zinc deposit (AsiaBaseMetals Inc. - market cap approx. $17m) and now as the third generation Mantra Exploration Inc., Mantra Pharma Inc., and Mantra 2 Real Estate Inc.

Mantra Pharma Inc. has commenced the process to incorporate a subsidiary in Croatia to undertake its business activities in the medical cannabis sector; having secured an office in the fully permitted building recently completed in the city of Biograd na Moru (the “City”) in Dalmatia, Croatia, where-in a laboratory is being built by the City. The Croatian government is moving ahead with finalizing regulations for the medical cannabis sector and we anticipate that Croatia will be in a position to grant licenses by the end of the year.

Mantra 2 Real Estate Inc. intends to incorporate a subsidiary in Croatia to undertake its business activities in the real estate development sector, with the initial development plans for its 21,223 m2 property located adjacent to the oceanfront in Rogoznica_Lozica, Croatia having been submitted for approval. The approval for the development of the project for a hotel, villas and other entertainment structures is expected by year end.

Mantra Exploration Inc. is a mineral exploration company which holds the Jean Project, a prospective iron ore exploration property located in the Thunder Bay Mining District of Northwestern Ontario, Canada.

The support of the ABZ Shareholders, especially during the process of implementing the Transaction, is greatly appreciated by the Company, and personally by myself. With the Transaction complete, we now look forward to creating further value for the ABZ shareholders as they participate in these diverse industries as shareholders of each of the Mantra Entities.”
