Treasury Metals Inc. (TSX:TML) ("Treasury Metals" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has entered into an agreement with a syndicate of agents led by Haywood Securities Inc. (collectively, the "Agents"), to complete a private placement financing on a commercially reasonable efforts basis (the "Offering") of up to 4,500,000 flow-through common shares of the Company ("Flow-Through Shares") at an issue price of $0.67 per Flow-Through Share (the "Issue Price") for gross proceeds of up to $3,015,000.

The proceeds from the issuance of Flow-Through Shares will be used to incur Canadian Exploration Expenses ("CEE"), and will qualify as "flow-through mining expenditures" under the Income Tax Act (Canada), which will be renounced to the subscribers with an effective date no later than December 31, 2017 to the purchasers of Flow-Through Shares in an aggregate amount no less than the proceeds raised from the issue of the Flow-Through Shares. The proceeds of the Offering will be used by the Company to accelerate the current in-fill drilling program at depth and complete a step-out exploration program to the East Resource target area at its development-stage Goliath Gold Project.

Closing of the Offering is expected to occur on or about December 21, 2017 and is subject to certain customary conditions, including, but not limited to, the receipt of all necessary regulatory approvals and acceptance of the Toronto Stock Exchange. The Flow-Through Shares issued under the Offering will be subject to a statutory hold period of four months plus a day following the date of closing.
