Wallbridge Comments on Recent Announcement by Hinterland Metals Inc.

Wallbridge Mining Company Limited (TSX:WM, FWB:WC7) (“Wallbridge” or the “Company”) wishes to eliminate any confusion and clarify for Wallbridge shareholders that the Company has no association with a press release issued on September 25, 2018 (the “Hinterland Press Release”) by Hinterland Metals Inc. (TSXV:HMI) (“Hinterland”) in which Hinterland announces the acquisition of a property it calls the “Fenelon Gold Property” located in Quebec’s Abitibi region.

Wallbridge wishes to make clear that the Company has no association with or interest in Hinterland or any of Hinterland’s projects and the Company has never had any discussions with Hinterland regarding any property or business of either company. Wallbridge acquired its Fenelon Gold Property in October 2016 and the Wallbridge Fenelon Gold Property is not the same property that Hinterland refers to in the Hinterland Press Release. Wallbridge management has been in contact with Hinterland management and securities regulators in an effort to eliminate any confusion as a result of Hinterland’s disclosure.

As discussed in Wallbridge’s continuous disclosures and in its most recent press release of September 19, 2018, management is very pleased with results and performance to date at its Fenelon Gold Property and the potential to grow the deposit.

Wallbridge’s Fenelon Gold Property is located in northwestern Quebec proximal to the Sunday Lake Deformation Zone (“SLDZ”) which hosts the Detour Gold Mine in Ontario, and Balmoral Resources’ gold deposits at Martiniere. The Fenelon Gold Property hosts the Discovery Zone gold deposit and surrounding 4 km strike length of a gold-hosting secondary splay of the SLDZ.

About Wallbridge Mining

Wallbridge is establishing a pipeline of projects that will support sustainable production and revenue as well as organic growth through exploration and scalability.

Wallbridge is currently developing its 100%-owned high-grade Fenelon Gold property in Quebec with ongoing exploration and a bulk sample in 2018. Wallbridge is also pursuing other additional advanced-stage projects which would add to the Company’s near term project pipeline. These discussions benefit from the operating capabilities Wallbridge demonstrated by safely and efficiently mining the Broken Hammer deposit in Sudbury, which was completed in October 2015. Wallbridge is also continuing partner-funded exploration on its large portfolio of nickel, copper, and PGM projects in Sudbury, Ontario, with a focus on its high-grade Parkin project.

Wallbridge also has exposure to exploration for copper and gold in Jamaica and British Columbia through its 11.3% ownership of Carube Copper Corp. (CUC:TSX-V, formerly Miocene Resources Limited, a Wallbridge spin-out of its BC assets).
