(the "Company") (TSXV:PHD) (OTC:PRRVF) is pleased to announce a private placement offering to raise up to $500,000 from the sale of 6,250,000 units at $0.08 per unit.

Finder's fees may be payable to qualified individuals comprised of shares, warrants or cash or any combination thereof.
The Offering will be conducted pursuant to available prospectus exemptions including sales to accredited investors, family members, close friends and business associates of directors and officers of the Corporation, to purchasers who have obtained suitability advice from a registered investment dealer pursuant to the exemption set out in BC Instrument 45-536 (Exemption from prospectus requirement for certain distributions through an investment dealer) (the "Investment Dealer Exemption") and to existing shareholders of the Corporation pursuant to the exemption set out in British Columbia Securities Commission BC Instrument 45- 534 (Exemption from prospectus requirement for certain trades to existing security holders) (the "Existing Shareholder Exemption").
For subscribers utilizing the Existing Shareholder Exemption, the Offering is available to all shareholders of the Company as at May 13, 2020, (the "Record Date") (and still are shareholders) who are eligible to participate under the Existing Shareholder Exemption. Any person who becomes a shareholder of the Company after the Record Date is not permitted to participate in the offerings using the Existing Shareholder Exemption but other exemptions may still be available to them.

The private placement is subject to the approval of the TSX Venture Exchange.
The proposed net proceeds received from the Offering after payment of commissions are intended to be used by the Company for further evaluation including a depth profile, bulk sampling, and a report of what the Company believes is the original stockpile from the famous providence high grade gold mine which reportedly produced in excess of 200,000 ounces up until a dispute and a subsequent fire in 1916 destroyed everything in its path. The remaining proceeds will be used for administration and general operating expenses
