Stuhini Exploration Ltd. Announces $2,300,000 Private Placement

1. 2,000,000 common shares that qualify as "flow-through shares" for the purposes of the Income Tax Act (Canada) ("FT Common Shares") at a price of $0.65 per FT Common Share for aggregate gross proceeds to the Company of $1,300,000 (the "Flow Through Offering").
2. 2,000,000 non flow-through common shares ("Non-FT Common Shares") at a price of $0.50 per share for aggregate gross proceeds of $1,000,000 (the "Non-FT Offering").

The Flow Through Offering and Non-FT Offering (collectively, the "Offering") will provide aggregate gross proceeds to the Company of $2,300,000.

Aggregate gross proceeds of up to $1,300,000 from the Flow-Through Offering will be used to incur "Canadian exploration expenses" which qualify as "flow-through mining expenditures" (within the meaning of the Income Tax Act (Canada)) ("Qualifying Expenditures") to fund exploration programs on Stuhini's Ruby Creek and Project which is located in British Columbia. The Company will renounce these expenses to the purchasers with an effective date of not later than December 31, 2021.

Aggregate gross proceeds of up to $1,000,000 from the Non-FT Offering will be used to fund exploration programs on the Company's mineral properties, including the Que Project in the Yukon Territory and the South Thompson Nickel project in Manitoba, as well as general and administrative expenses.

Finder's fees of up to 6% cash may be payable in connection with certain subscriptions under the Offering.

It is anticipated that certain directors, officers and other insiders of the Company will acquire common shares under the Offering. Such participation will be considered to be "related party transactions" within the meaning of TSX Venture Exchange Policy 5.9 and Multilateral Instrument 61 101 Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions ("MI 61-101") adopted in the Policy. The Company intends to rely on the exemptions from the formal valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements of MI 61-101 contained in sections 5.5(a) and 5.7(1)(a) of MI 61-101 in respect of related party participation in the Offering as neither the fair market value (as determined under MI 61-101) of the subject matter of, nor the fair market value of the consideration for, the transaction, insofar as it involves interested parties, is expected to exceed 25% of the Company's market capitalization (as determined under MI 61-101).

The Offering is subject to certain conditions including, but not limited to, the receipt of all necessary approvals including the approval of the TSX Venture Exchange. The common shares to be issued under the Offering will have a hold period of four months and one day from the Closing.
