LAURION Announces New Non-brokered Private Placement of Units

Laurion Mineral Exploration Inc. (TSXV: LME) (OTCPINK: LMEFF) ("LAURION" or the "Corporation") today announced that due to strong interest in its previous, fully-subscribed financing whereby certain prospective investors were unable to participate, the Corporation is proposing to complete a new flow-through and non flow-through private placement on a non-brokered basis (the " Private Placement ") for approximate aggregate gross proceeds of up to $250,000 . Under the flow-through portion of the Private Placement, the Corporation intends to raise up to approximately $85,000 in gross proceeds by issuing up to approximately 340,000 flow-through units (the " FT Units "). Under the non flow-through portion of the Private Placement, the Corporation intends to raise up to approximately $165,000 in gross proceeds by issuing up to approximately 750,000 non flow-through units (the " Non-FT Units "). Pursuant to the Private Placement, the FT Units will be issued at a price of $0.25 per FT Unit and the Non-FT Units will be issued at a price of $0.22 per Non-FT Unit.

Each FT Unit will consist of one common share of the Corporation to be issued as a "flow-through share" (as defined in subsection 66(15) of the Income Tax Act ( Canada ) (the " Tax Act ")) (each, a " FT Share ") and one common share purchase warrant (each, a " Warrant "). Each Non-FT Unit will consist of one non flow-through common share of the Corporation and one Warrant. Each Warrant (whether comprising part of an FT Unit or a Non-FT Unit) will entitle the holder thereof to acquire one non flow-through common share of the Corporation at a price of $0.26 per share for a period of 12 months from the date of issuance.

As at the date hereof, the Corporation has accepted subscription agreements for the Private Placement in aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $230,000 .

The gross proceeds allocable to the FT Shares comprising the FT Units will be used for "Canadian exploration expenses" (within the meaning of the Tax Act), which will qualify, once renounced, as "flow-through mining expenditures", as defined in the Tax Act, which will be renounced with an effective date of no later than December 31, 2020 (provided the subscriber deals at arm's length with the Corporation at all relevant times) to the initial purchasers of FT Units in an aggregate amount not less than the gross proceeds raised from the issue of the FT Units which are allocable to the FT Shares. The Corporation intends to use the net proceeds from the issue of Non-FT Units for exploration activities and general working capital purposes.

In connection with the Private Placement, the Corporation may pay finders' fees in the form of cash commissions and finder's warrants having the same attributes as the Warrants.

The closing of the Private Placement is subject to the approval of the TSX Venture Exchange (the "TSXV"). All securities that are issued pursuant to the Private Placement will be subject to, among other things, a hold period of four months and one day in accordance with applicable Canadian securities laws.

About Laurion Mineral Exploration Inc.

The Corporation is a junior mineral exploration and development company listed on the TSXV under the symbol LME and on the OTCPINK under the symbol LMEFF. The Corporation currently has 198,718,522 outstanding shares, of which approximately 71% of LAURION's issued and outstanding shares are owned and controlled by Insiders who are eligible investors under the "Friends and Family" categories.

LAURION's emphasis is on the development of its flagship project, the 100% owned mid-stage 47 km 2 Ishkoday Project, and its gold-silver and gold-rich polymetallic mineralization with a significant upside potential. The mineralization on Ishkoday is open at depth beyond the current core-drilling limit of -200 m from surface, based on the historical mining to a -685 m depth, in the past producing Sturgeon River Mine. The recently acquired Brenbar Property, which is contiguous with the Ishkoday Property, hosts the historic Brenbar Mine and LAURION believes the mineralization to be a direct extension of mineralization from the Ishkoday Property.

Walker Lane Resources Webinar Highlights Strategic Path to Discovery and Value

Walker Lane Resources (TSXV:WLR) outlined its strategy as a high-grade gold and silver explorer focused on Nevada and BC in a recent webinar hosted by the Investing News Network.

In his presentation, Walker Lane President and CEO Kevin Brewer emphasized the company’s goal of discovering and advancing quality assets, then monetizing them near their peak exploration value.

“You want to find deposits, and then you start to maximize them. You may start a PEA (and) you may complete that. But at most stages, the best thing to do is try to sell the project at that (PEA) stage, because that will be the peak value,” Brewer said.
