("Red Cloud") have agreed to increase the size of its previously announced "bought deal" private placement (the "Underwritten Offering") from gross proceeds of C$10,000,120 to gross proceeds of C$15,000,180. Pursuant to the upsized Underwritten Offering, Red Cloud and Cantor Fitzgerald Canada Corporation, as co-lead underwriters and joint bookrunners on behalf of a syndicate of underwriters (the "Underwriters"), will purchase for resale 5,769,300 common shares of the Company (the "Offered Shares") at a price of C$2.60 per Offered Share (the "Offering Price").

The Underwritten Offering and the Offered Shares issuable upon exercise of the Over-Allotment Option shall be collectively referred to as the "Offering".

The Company intends to use the net proceeds of the Offering for continued exploration and development of the Iska Iska project in southern Bolivia as well as general corporate purposes and working capital.
