BacTech Closes Third Tranche of Debenture Financing

TORONTO, June 28, 2017 /CNW/ - BacTech Environmental Corp. ("BacTech" or the "Company"), (CSE: BAC, OTC Pink: BCCEF) today announced that it has closed the 3rd tranche of its debenture financing announced on April 5, 2017. The amount closed was CAD$160,000. This brings the total raised under this unique format to $445,000.

The non-brokered private placement is being made without any solicitation and the company is responding to demand of Investors interested in learning more about the debenture.

The debentures being offered have a 2-year term and pay interest of 12% per annum. Interest payments will be paid on the anniversary of the closing date. In addition, the Company is including a 20% common share bonus. For example, a $10,000 debenture would be accompanied by a $2,000 bonus, which equates to 40,000 common shares at the current price of the stock ($0.05). The common shares will be subject to a 4 month hold period.  For more information, investors may contact the company directly.

The use of proceeds are as follows:

• Onset of the metallurgical testing to determine the ultimate plant design
• Completion of the NI 43-101 report on the project
• Economic feasibility study in conjunction with the engineering
• General working capital

The Company intends to continue to raise capital under this process until it reaches $750,000 in total. This is the amount estimated to be needed to complete the pre-construction phase for the Telamayu project and to fund the cash portion of the Laurentian University arsenic bioleach test work for Ecuadorian arsenopyrite samples.
