St. John's, Newfoundland and Labrador--(Newsfile Corp. - April 25, 2025) - Sokoman Minerals Corp. (TSXV: SIC) (OTCQB: SICNF) ("Sokoman" or the "Company") today announces a non-brokered private placement of flow-through ("FT") shares (the "Private Placement") for gross proceeds of up to CAD$400,000. The Private Placement is expected to close on or before May 7, 2025.

The Private Placement is priced at CAD$0.05 per FT share, with each flow-through common share of the Company entitling the holder to receive the tax benefits applicable to flow-through shares in accordance with the provisions of the Income Tax Act (Canada).

The first closing of CAD$300,000 is imminent.

All securities issued pursuant to the Private Placement will be subject to a four-month and one-day hold period.

"While our team has been fully engaged with the two bulk samples recently, we are looking forward to continuing our exploration on our other projects, as we believe they hold significant discovery potential," remarked Tim Froude, P.Geo., President and CEO of Sokoman.

In connection with the Private Placement, the Company may pay finders' fees in cash and broker warrants as permitted by the policies of the TSX Venture Exchange (the "Exchange"). The Private Placement is subject to Exchange approval.

The Company will use an amount equal to the gross proceeds received by the Company from the sale of the FT shares, pursuant to the provisions in the Income Tax Act (Canada), to incur eligible "Canadian exploration expenses" that qualify as "flow-through mining expenditures" as both terms are defined in the Income Tax Act (Canada) (the "Qualifying Expenditures") on or before December 31, 2026, and to renounce all of the Qualifying Expenditures in favour of the subscribers of the FT shares.

The Company intends to spend CAD$400,000 of the flow-through proceeds on our exploration projects.
