(CSE: PAU) (OTCQB: PVGDF) (the \"Company\" or \"Provenance\") is pleased to announce the closing of a private placement for 11,973,999 units (each, a \"Unit\") at a price of $0.13 per Unit for gross proceeds of $1,556,619.87. Each Unit consists of one common share of the Issuer (each, a \"Share\") and one common share purchase warrant (each, a \"Warrant\") with each Warrant entitling the holder thereof to purchase one additional common share (each, a \"Warrant Share\") of the Issuer at a price of $0.20 per Warrant Share until October 22, 2024.

Proceeds of this private placement will go towards the completion of the White Rock drill program, in addition to an upcoming drill program planned at its Mineral Hill property, and general working capital. All securities issued in connection with the private placement are subject to a four-month-and-one-day statutory hold period in accordance with applicable securities laws until February 23, 2021. There were no finders' fees paid in connection with this placement. One director of the Company participated in the private placement and acquired an aggregate of 100,000 Units.
