Fancamp Exploration Receives Conditional Acceptance from TSX Venture Exchange for ScoZinc Mining Transaction

As such, Fancamp is pleased to announce that its AGM will be held on Tuesday, June 29, 2021 at 10:00 a.m. (EST). Shareholders as of the record date of Friday, May 28, 2021 will be eligible to vote at the AGM. Further information related to the AGM will be included in the formal notice of the AGM and in the management information circular, which will be mailed to shareholders and made available on SEDAR at www.sedar.com in a timely manner, in accordance with the applicable securities regulations.

Fancamp is also pleased to announce that the Board of Directors (the "Board") has formed a special committee of directors (the "Special Committee"), who are disinterested in the Transaction and independent from activist Mr. Peter H. Smith, to manage the affairs of the Corporation, including matters relating directly or indirectly to the Transaction and the AGM, as well as addressing Mr. Smith's repeated breaches of fiduciary duty. Mr. Smith is a director and former president and CEO of the Corporation, who recently had his consulting agreement terminated for cause. The Board believes establishing the Special Committee is in the best interest of the Corporation and its shareholders.

ABOUT THE TRANSACTION

The combination of Fancamp and ScoZinc takes two significantly undervalued companies and creates a larger, stronger entity. Fancamp shareholders will emerge from this Transaction with a greatly enhanced opportunity to create value as the combined entity will have a strong cash position, a significant portfolio of projects that can provide long-term value creation, greater opportunities for profitable growth, and be better positioned to attract new investments that would not be otherwise available at the current size.

On April 20, 2021, ScoZinc received a final order from the British Columbia Supreme Court approving the plan of arrangement with Fancamp. Upon satisfaction of the conditions of the TSX-V acceptance, Fancamp and ScoZinc are bound to complete the Transaction.

FANCAMP REMAINS FOCUSED ON THE FUTURE

As discussed on the January 19, 2021 and March 4, 2021 investor calls, the new management team of the Corporation developed a three-pronged strategy focused on:

1. Exploration Properties: Selecting quality exploration targets to enhance value, combined with a disciplined rigor when allocating funds.
2. Titanium Technology: Establishing new processes and obtaining patents to become an active participant in a $16-billion industry.
3. Strategic Alternatives: Acquiring projects that have the potential for near-term cash flow.

Fancamp remains focused on executing its growth strategy to deliver significant value to shareholders.
