Vancouver, BC – TheNewswire - May 31, 2021 - Alianza Minerals Ltd. (TSXV:ANZ) (OTC:TARSF) (“Alianza” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce a non-brokered private placement of 10 million Flow-Through Shares of the Company at a price of C$0.12 per flow-through share for gross proceeds to the Company of up to C$1.2 million (the “Offering”). Red Cloud Securities Inc. is acting as a finder in connection with the Offering.

The gross proceeds from the issuance of the Flow-Through Shares will be used for “Canadian Exploration Expenses” (within the meaning of the Income Tax Act (Canada)) (the “Qualifying Expenditures”), which will be renounced with an effective date no later than December 31, 2021 to the purchasers of the Flow-Through Shares in an aggregate amount not less than the gross proceeds raised from the issue of the Flow-Through Shares.  If the Qualifying Expenditures are reduced by the Canada Revenue Agency, the Company will indemnify each Flow-Through Shares subscriber for any additional taxes payable by such subscriber as a result of the Company’s failure to renounce the Qualifying Expenditures.

The net proceeds from the sale of Flow-Through Shares shall be used for exploration of the Company’s Haldane Silver Project in the Keno Hill District, Yukon.

Jason Weber, President and CEO of Alianza, noted that “These funds will be used to complete additional drilling at the West Fault target, where drilling is underway. This will be important in helping us follow up the wide, high-grade intersection in our 2020 program which included 8.72 metres averaging 311 g/t silver, 0.89% lead and 1.13% zinc.”

The closing of the Offering is expected to occur on or about June 14, 2021 and is subject to receipt of all necessary regulatory approvals including the TSX Venture Exchange (the “TSXV”).
