Vancouver, October 30, 2020 - Benz Mining Corp. (TSXV: BZ) (the "Company" or "Benz"), is pleased to announce that it has closed its previously announced private placement (the "Offering") of 14,857,142 flow-through units at $0.875 (the "FT Units") and 400,000 hard dollar units at $0.55 (the "HD Units") for aggregate gross proceeds of $13,219,999.25.
