Juggernaut Files to Close First Tranche Financing with Continued Support by Both Crescat Capital & Dr. Quinton Hennigh Technical Advisor
Vancouver, Nov. 20TH, 2023 - Further to the news release of November 6, 2023, Juggernaut Exploration Ltd. (TSXV:JUGR) (OTC:JUGRF) (FSE:4JE) (the "Company" or "Juggernaut") is pleased to announce the Company has filed documents with the TSXV Exchange ("TSXV") for approval to close the first tranche of its non-brokered financing for 12,092,616 units. Crescat Capital LLC ("Crescat") and Dr. Quinton Hennigh personally have subscribed to this institutionally supported financing. This is a follow-on investment by Crescat, previously announced on May 12th, 2023 (Link to May 12th 2023 news). Post-closing of this financing, Crescat will retain a significant portion of the company, and Juggernaut welcomes this additional strategic investment. Dr. Quinton Hennigh has long provided his technical support to the projects, and the Company looks forward to his continuing guidance. Juggernaut's projects continue to garner strong interest and support from leading institutions and miners alike globally, confirming the quality of its three fully permitted, 100% controlled, drill-ready projects, Midas, Empire, and Bingo, located in world-class geologic terrane of Northwestern British Columbia encompassing the Golden Triangle. Dr. Quinton Hennigh is a special technical advisor to the Company and technical and geologic director of Crescat. Dr. Hennigh is a world-renowned exploration geologist with more than 30 years of experience, including with major gold mining firms Homestake Mining, Newcrest Mining, and Newmont Mining.
Dr. Hennigh stated, "Juggernaut had a very successful exploration season in 2023. Over the past couple of years, the Company's exploration team diligently accumulated high-quality data to define drill targets with maximum chance of success at the flagship Midas precious metal-rich VMS project near Terrace, BC. That work paid off this year when Juggernaut encountered long intervals of stockwork feeder mineralization displaying considerable sulfides, including chalcopyrite. This program has confirmed the presence of a sizable, strong VMS system at Midas. We anxiously await results from this encouraging drill program."

Dan Stuart, Director, President, and CEO of Juggernaut, states:
"We are pleased to strengthen our ongoing relationship with both Crescat Capital as a strategic investor and Dr. Hennigh as a Special Technical Advisor and personal investor. We look forward to continuing to work with our partners, who bring a proven track record of both financial and technical strength. This will enable Juggernaut to unlock the full potential of its assets over the long term, building value for all shareholders. This investment and continued strategic partnership, coupled with the ongoing support and interest from other globally recognized Institutions and senior miners, is a strong endorsement that clearly demonstrates the significant near-term discovery potential of our 100% controlled properties. Post financing, Juggernaut will have a tight capital structure of just 77,941,760. As such, we are well-positioned to move forward with our plans of further drilling on Midas, Empire, and Bingo. With much anticipation, we look forward to releasing drill results once received, complied with, and interpreted by the technical team.
