2017

Vancouver, B.C., Metallic Minerals Corp. (TSX-V: MMG; US OTC: MMNGF) ("Metallic Minerals" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has raised aggregate gross proceeds of $750,000 through the issuance of 1,666,666 units ("Units") at a price of $0.45 per Unit (the "Private Placement"), which represents more than a 15% premium to the 10 day VWAP of the Company's common shares on the TSX Venture Exchange (the "Exchange").

Net proceeds from the Private Placement will be used on qualifying exploration expenditures for purposes of the Canadian Income Tax Act, primarily at Metallic Minerals' Keno-Lighting project in the Keno Hill silver district of the Yukon Territory, Canada.

Greg Johnson, CEO & Chairman, stated, "We are pleased with the interest in this financing from our existing shareholders and from new investors. The closing of this private placement will enable us to expand our planned 2017 exploration program in the Keno Hill silver district this year. We expect to commence the field activities in April with geophysics and other ground work to further refine our priority targets for drilling later this summer."

Each Unit consisted of one common share and one common share purchase warrant, with each whole warrant exercisable at a price of $0.60 per common share for a period of 36 months from the closing date, subject to accelerated expiry. The common shares were issued on a "flow-through" basis, and the Company understands that most of the common shares and associated warrants were acquired through Peartree Securities Inc. for donation purposes. All of the securities issued pursuant to the Private Placement are subject to a statutory hold period of four months and one day expiring on July 24, 2017 under applicable Canadian securities laws.

If, any time after the closing date, the closing price for the common shares on the TSX Venture Exchange trades at 85% or greater above the issue price of the Units for 10 consecutive trading days, the Company may provide written notice of acceleration of the expiry date of the warrants. The expiry date for the warrants will thereafter be accelerated to the date a minimum of 30 days after the date of delivery of such notice, or such greater period as the Company may determine.

The securities offered have not been registered under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from the registration requirements. This press release shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy nor shall there be any sale of the securities in any State in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful.

Although Metallic Minerals believes the expectations expressed in such forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions, such statements are not guarantees of future performance and actual results or developments may differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements.
