ZEPHYR CLOSES FINAL TRANCHE OF PRIVATE PLACEMENT

Zephyr Minerals Ltd. has closed the final tranche of its previously announced non-brokered private placement through the issuance of 296,000 units at a price of nine cents per unit. In aggregate, the company issued a total of four million units for gross proceeds of $360,000.

Loren Komperdo, president and chief executive officer, stated: "We are pleased to have completed this tranche, which fulfills the announced $360,000 capital raise. The company is now in a position to execute on its exploration plans in Zimbabwe, consisting of geophysics and drilling."

Each unit consists of one common share and one transferable share purchase warrant. Each warrant entitles the holder thereof to purchase one additional share of the company at a price of 13 cents per share for a period of 12 months. The expiry date of the warrants may be accelerated by Zephyr at any time if the volume-weighted average trading price of the common shares is greater than or equal to 26 cents for any 20 consecutive trading days. If this occurs, the company may accelerate the expiry date of the warrants by issuing a news release announcing the reduced warrant term whereupon the warrants will expire on the 30th calendar day after the date of such news release.

Net proceeds from the private placement will be used for mineral exploration programs in Zimbabwe (see news release dated July 26, 2023) and for general corporate purposes.

The private placement is subject to certain conditions, including, but not limited to, the receipt of all necessary approvals, including the approval and acceptance by the TSX Venture Exchange. All securities issued under the private placement are subject to a statutory hold period of four months and a day expiring on Jan. 12, 2024.

About Zephyr Minerals Ltd.

Zephyr Minerals is conducting continuing evaluations of gold properties for potential acquisition and/or joint venture throughout Zimbabwe. The company is concentrating on projects with obvious gold potential as demonstrated through active, shallow, small-scale mining operations or previous exploration work and favourable geology. In addition, the property should be of sufficient areal extent to host a target potential of at least one million ounces of gold. To this extent, the company has signed multiple property joint venture agreements and has applied for two exclusive prospecting orders covering 124,000 hectares. The company is also actively reviewing lithium opportunities generated through in house research and property submittals by third parties. Zimbabwe boasts favourable foreign ownership rules for mineral properties as well as prospective, underexplored Archean greenstone belts.

In Colorado, Zephyr has been focused on mine permitting activities at its 100-per-cent-owned Dawson gold property, which is presently in hiatus pending the collection and submission of additional water well data and satisfying certain other environmental related questions. The additional required water wells are still in the planning stage and will be drilled once available funds are in hand. Upon collection of the additional data, the company plans to reapply for a mining permit at Dawson.

We seek Safe Harbor.
