Thunderstruck Resources Ltd. Closes Oversubscribed Private Placement

"We are ecstatic to have raised the funds necessary to commence exploration and drilling on our primary Liwa gold asset," stated Thunderstruck President and CEO, Bryce Bradley, 'Drill rigs have been approved for mobilization to site and drilling is set to commence shortly after their arrival. Myself and our entire team are thankful to all of our new and loyal shareholders and proud to be working in a country where strict policies have led to no new COVID cases for over two months. We will continue to work closely with authorities to ensure that our practices meet or exceed the high standard outlined by Fijian governing bodies."

Liwa Creek is characterized by a series of coincident geochemical and geophysical anomalies extending over three kilometres in strike and open in all directions.

Recent work by Thunderstruck (detailed in release dated June 8, 2020) has yielded surface trench results highlighted by 0.61 g/t gold over 71 meters at Liwa Ridge (see release dated February 13, 2018) as well as rock grab samples grading as high as 55.2 g/t gold at Jensen's Showing (see release dated October 11, 2019) and 42 g/t gold and 1,205 g/t silver at Lower Vatuvatulevu. An IP/Resistivity geophysical survey over four line-kilometers conducted last exploration season has detailed coincident anomalies at depth that will be targeted in this drill program (see release dated April 2, 2019).
