Huntington Exploration Inc. Upsizes Previously Announced Brokered Private Placement to C$6,000,000

CALGARY, May 25, 2021 - Huntington Exploration Inc. (TSXV: HEI) ("Huntington" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has amended its agreement with Canaccord Genuity Corp. and Sprott Capital Partners, to act as co-lead agents, on behalf of a syndicate of agents including Cormark Securities Inc. (collectively, the "Agents") to increase the size of its previously announced private placement of units to $6 million (up from $5 million)(the "Revised Offering"). The Revised Offering will be comprised of units ("HD Units") to be sold at a price of C$0.28 per HD Unit and flow-through units ("FT Units") to be sold at a price of C$0.35 per FT Unit ("FT Offering Price").

Each FT Unit shall consist of one common share of the Company and one-half of one transferable common share purchase warrant (each whole common share purchase warrant, a "Warrant"), each of which will not qualify as a "flow-through share" (within the meaning of subsection 66(15) of the Income Tax Act (Canada) (the "Tax Act"). Each HD Unit shall consist of one common share of the Company and one-half Warrant. Each Warrant will entitle the holder thereof to purchase one common share of the Company at an exercise price of C$0.40 for a period of 2 years following the closing of the Offering.

Closing is expected on or about June 10, 2021 and is subject to the approval of the TSX Venture Exchange (the "Exchange") and other necessary regulatory approvals.

The proceeds raised from the sale of FT Shares will be used to incur "Canadian exploration expenses" that are "flow-through mining expenditures" (as such terms are defined in the Tax Act) on the Company's flagship properties in Ontario, Canada prior to December 31, 2022 (or such other period as may be permissible under applicable tax legislation), and to renounce all such expenditures in favour of the subscribers of the FT Units effective December 31, 2021. The proceeds raised from the sale of HD Units will be used for general working capital purposes and for exploration on the Company's other Ontario properties.

The Company also intends to complete the previously announced contemporaneous non-brokered private placement on the same terms of the FT Units at the FT Offering Price for aggregate gross proceeds of C$2,500,000. Closing of the Offering is not contingent on the closing of the non-brokered private placement.

This news release does not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to sell of any of the securities in the United States. The securities have not been and will not be registered under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "U.S. Securities Act") or any state securities laws and may not be offered or sold within the United States or to U.S. Persons unless registered under the U.S. Securities Act and applicable state securities laws or an exemption from such registration is available.


About Huntington

Huntington is dedicated to the application of good geoscience in an environmentally responsible manner. We practice the policies and procedures of the E3 Program developed by the Prospectors and Developers Association of Canada. We are planning our 2021 exploration program on our Quartz Lake Project.

Huntington's Quartz Lake Project claims previously referred to as the Birch-Uchi Project, cover 11,280 hectares in 6 separate claim blocks in the Birch-Uchi region east of Red Lake. Field work will commence with a detailed gold in till and geochemical sampling program following on the recent successful application of the Geological Survey of Canada and Teck protocol, by Prosper Gold on their contiguous Golden Sidewalk Project property.

The Prosper exploration work has successfully demonstrated the potential of the 'Red Lake – Dixie' exploration model to be applicable in this area. Regionally, gold mineralization has been found follow a formational magnetic signature that parallels the regional Balmer – Narrow Lake Assemblage (Confederation Group) unconformity. Prosper Gold has announced the recovery of a significant numbers of pristine (rough and angular) gold grains recovered from systematic till samples and are currently in the midst of a 10,000 m drill program.

The formational magnetic feature and the projected unconformity highlighted by Prosper trends onto Huntington's Key-Hole Claims, where a till sampling program will commence as soon as field conditions permit.
