NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION TO UNITED STATES NEWSWIRE SERVICES OR FOR DISSEMINATION IN THE UNITED STATES

VANCOUVER, April 4, 2023 - Blackwolf Copper and Gold Ltd. ("Blackwolf", or the "Company") (TSXV:BWCG) is pleased to announce the closing of its previously announced private placement (the "Offering") for aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $8,500,000, which includes the full exercise of the over-allotment option granted to the Agent (as defined below) for additional gross proceeds of $1,000,000. Under the Offering, the Company sold 30,000,000 units of the Company (each, a "Unit") at a price of $0.20 per Unit for gross proceeds of $6,000,000 from the sale of Units and 10,416,666 flow-through common shares of the Company (each, a "FT Share") at a price of $0.24 per FT Share for gross proceeds of $2,500,000 from the sale of FT Shares. Red Cloud Securities Inc. (the "Agent") acted as sole agent and bookrunner in connection with the brokered component of the Offering.

Each Unit consists of one common share of the Company (each, a "Unit Share") and one-half of one common share purchase warrant of the Company (each whole warrant, a "Warrant"). Each Warrant shall entitle the holder to purchase one common share of the Company (each, a "Warrant Share") at a price of $0.35 at any time on or before April 4, 2025. Each FT Share consists of one common share of the Company issued as a "flow-through share" within the meaning of the Income Tax Act (Canada).

Under the Offering, Mr. Frank Giustra acquired 10,000,000 FT Shares. Prior to the acquisition of the FT Shares under the Offering, Mr. Giustra, directly and indirectly owned 714,285 common shares in the capital of Blackwolf, representing approximately 1.80% of the then-outstanding common shares of the Company. Following closing of the Offering, Mr. Giustra, directly and indirectly, now owns 10,714,285 common shares of Blackwolf, representing approximately 13.4% of the outstanding common shares of the Company.

Mr. Giustra may in the future acquire or dispose of securities of the Company, through the market, privately or otherwise, as circumstances or market conditions warrant. A copy of the Early Warning Report filed by Mr. Giustra may be obtained from the Company's SEDAR profile.

The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the Offering for the exploration and advancement of the Company's 100% owned Hyder Gold-Silver Properties in the US and Canada, the 100% owned Niblack copper-gold-zinc-silver VMS project, property acquisitions, as well as for general working capital purposes.

Proceeds from the sale of FT Shares will be used to incur "Canadian exploration expenses" as defined in subsection 66.1(6) of the Income Tax Act and "flow through mining expenditures" as defined in subsection 127(9) of the Income Tax Act. Such proceeds will be renounced to the subscribers with an effective date not later than December 31, 2023 and incurred no later than December 31, 2024, in the aggregate amount of not less than the total amount of gross proceeds raised from the issue of FT Shares.

In connection with the Offering, the Agent received cash fees totalling $524,915 and was issued 2,478,746 broker warrants ("Broker Warrants"). The Company completed a portion of the Offering on a non-brokered basis, and paid a cash finder's fee of $5,600 and issued 28,000 warrants on the same terms as the Broker Warrants to certain arm's length finders. Each Broker Warrant entitles the holder to purchase one common share (a "Broker Warrant Share") of the Company at a price of $0.20 per Broker Warrant Share for a period of 24 months from the date hereof.

Certain directors and officers of the Company purchased an aggregate of 166,632 FT Shares and 50,000 Units under the Offering, constituting, to that extent, a "related party transaction" as defined under Multilateral Instrument 61-101 ("MI 61-101"). The Company has relied on the exemptions from the formal valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements of MI 61-101, as neither the fair market value of the securities distributed in the Offering nor the consideration received for those securities, in so far as the Offering involves the directors and officers, exceeds 25% of the Company's market capitalization. The Offering remains subject to final approval of the TSXV.

The securities issued under this Offering are subject to a four-month hold period ending on August 5, 2023.The securities described herein have not been, and will not be, registered under the United States Securities Act, or any state securities laws, and accordingly may not be offered or sold within the United States except in compliance with the registration requirements of the U.S. Securities Act and applicable state securities requirements or pursuant to exemptions therefrom. This press release does not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation to buy any securities in any jurisdiction.
