The Company welcomes Mr. Michael Gentile, CFA, as a key shareholder and new insider of the Company with 10.7% ownership. Mr. Gentile is considered one of the leading strategic investors in the junior mining sector, owning significant positions in over 15 small-cap mining companies. Michael is currently a strategic advisor to Arizona Metals (TSXV:AMC) and a director of Northern Superior Resources (TSXV:SUP), Roscan Gold (TSXV:ROS), Radisson Mining Resources (TSXV:RDS) and Solstice Gold (TSXV:SGC). Michael recently co-founded Bastion Asset Management, an investment management firm based out of Montreal, Quebec and was previously a Senior Portfolio Manager with Formula Growth Limited.

Mr. Blair Schultz, recently appointed to the board of Directors of CANEX, also participated in the financing and currently owns 5.3% of the Company. Mr. Schultz has over 25 years of capital markets and financial experience including several mining senior executive roles and brings significant merger and acquisition knowledge to the board. Among his successes includes time spent at Klondex Mines (TSX: KDX) where he played an active role with the Board and Management orchestrating a recapitalization from an insolvent explorer into a producer, concluding with the sale of Klondex to Hecla Mining Company (NYSE: HL), and more recently, founder and principal of Ring the Bell Capital Corp, a CPC, which successfully achieved a going public transaction for Arizona Metals Corp.

With this financing completed, CANEX will be fully funded to drill test the continuity of the 3.2 kilometer long by up to 500 meter-wide oxide gold mineralized corridor at Gold Range. To date results from 68 drill holes have been received from the Gold Range project confirming oxide gold mineralization at 3 zones along the corridor. Recent soil and rock sampling has further expanded the target zones and has identified several parallel zones that remain to be drill tested. CANEX is waiting on the results of 28 reverse circulation drill holes.

Terms of Financing

The non-brokered private placement consisted of 19,230,927 Units ("Common Units") at a price of $0.13 per Common Unit for gross proceeds of $2,500,020.51.

Each Common Unit consisted of one common share and one-half of one common share purchase warrant. Each whole common share purchase warrant entitles the holder to purchase one common share at a price of $0.18 per share for a period of two years following closing or until May 27, 2024. After a 6 month, non-callable period the warrants will be subject to acceleration at the Company's discretion if at any time the Company's 20 day volume-weighted average share price trades above 25 cents.

The Units were offered to accredited investors and all securities issued under the offering will be subject to a hold period of four months plus one day or until September 28, 2022. No finder fees were paid in connection with the financing. The Company has relied on 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 as the fair market value of the subject matter of the Private Placement does not exceed 25% of the market capitalization of the Company as calculated in accordance with MI 61-101.

Proceeds of the financing will be used to drill test and further explore the Gold Range Property and for general working capital.
