Vancouver, BC - TheNewswire - December 12, 2022 - Alianza Minerals Ltd. (TSXV: ANZ) (OTC:TARSF) (“Alianza” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce a non-brokered private placement of 20 million “Flow-Through” Shares of the Company at a price of C$0.05 per Share for gross proceeds to the Company of up to $1 million (the “Offering”).

The proceeds from the sale of the Flow-Through Shares shall be spent on exploration (“Canadian Exploration Expenditures” as defined by the Income Tax Act of Canada) at the Company’s Haldane Silver Project in the Keno Hill District, Yukon. Previous drilling on the Haldane Silver Project recently discovered high-grade silver mineralization (including HLD20-19 which hit 4.48 metres averaging 444 g/t silver, 0.15 g/t gold, 1.5% Pb and 1.3% Zn and hole 21-24 which hit 3.14 metres averaging 1,351 g/t silver, 0.08 g/t gold, 2.43% Pb and 2.91% Zn). Mineralization at Haldane resembles that historically mined from Keno Hill District deposits in grade and style. Drilling in 2023 will target the expansion of the West Fault target as well as other targets such as the Bighorn discovery, where the only drill hole to test this target discovered new Keno-style vein mineralization.

Jason Weber, P.Geo., President and CEO of Alianza commented, “We are very pleased with the support from our shareholders and investors, who are as eager as we are to advance the exploration programs at Haldane and continue to expand the potential for high grade silver deposits in one of the world’s highest grade silver districts.”

The closing of the Offering is expected to occur on or about December 20, 2022 and is subject to receipt of all necessary regulatory approvals including the TSX Venture Exchange (the “TSX-V”). Finder’s fees of 7% in cash will be paid to eligible parties. The common shares issued with respect to the Offering will be subject to a hold period of four months and one day in accordance with applicable securities laws.
