The SEK denominated Private Placement is expected to result in aggregate gross proceeds of SEK 278.3 million, approximately C$40.5 million, to the Company through the issuance of 58,708,900 Common Shares at a price of SEK 4.74 (corresponding to approximately C$0.69) per share (the "Subscription Price").

A Lundin Family related trust has participated in the equity offering with approximately C$20.5 million.

As previously announced, the Private Placement is being completed concurrently with the Offering pursuant to which a syndicate of underwriters led by BMO Capital Markets (the "Underwriters") have agreed to buy, on a bought deal basis, up to 16,675,000 Common Shares, including 2,175,000 Common Shares issued pursuant to an over-allotment option for aggregate gross proceeds of up to approximately C$11.5 million.

The closing of the Offering and the Private Placement and the listing on the Toronto Stock Exchange ("TSX") of Common Shares issuable under the Offering and the Private Placement is expected to occur on or about April 19, 2021.

The net proceeds of the Offering and Private Placement will be used to continue advancing the Josemaria copper-gold project in San Juan, Argentina (the "Josemaria Project"), repayment of certain outstanding debentures of the Company and general corporate purposes. In respect of the Offering, Common Shares are offered by way of a short form prospectus in all of the provinces and territories of Canada, other than Quebec.
