TORONTO, Dec. 15, 2022 - Cartier Silver Corporation (CSE:CFE) ("Cartier Silver" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that, due to investor demand in connection with its previously announced (see the Company's press release dated November 22, 2022) private placement offering (the "Private Placement"), it is increasing the size of the Private Placement to up to 10 million units of the Company ("Units") at a price of $0.40 per Unit for gross proceeds of up to $4 million. Each Unit will consist of one common share in the capital of Cartier Silver (a "Common Share") and one half of one Common Share purchase warrant (each whole, a "Warrant").

Some insiders of Cartier Silver intend to participate in the Private Placement.
Additionally, further to the Company's October 26, 2022 press release, Cartier Silver announces the signing of a definitive agreement ("Agreement") granting it an option to acquire a 100% interest in the Chorrillos Project, comprising two separate properties known as the Gonalbert Mining area and the Felicidad Mining area, located in southern Bolivia approximately 15 to 20km southeast of Eloro Resources Ltd.'s Iska Iska silver-tin polymetallic project. The terms of the Agreement were detailed in the Company's October 26, 2022 press release.
The net proceeds of the Private Placement will be used to finance exploration at the optioned Chorrillos Project and at the additional claims staked by the Company's subsidiary in the Potosi Department, Bolivia and for working capital purposes. All securities issued pursuant to the Private Placement will be subject to the applicable statutory four-month hold period. The Company is scheduling to close the first tranche of the Private Placement later today, subject to certain conditions, including, but not limited to the receipt of all necessary approvals.
