Bearing Announces Closing of Second Tranche of Private Placement

In connection with the Second Tranche, the Company issued an aggregate of 8,500,000 Common Shares at a price of $0.25 per Common Share for aggregate gross proceeds of $2,125,000. All Common Shares issued in connection with the Second Tranche are subject to a statutory hold period of four month and one day. Collectively between the first and Second Tranche, the Company issued an aggregate of 16,000,000 Common Shares for gross proceeds of $4,000,000.

Two insiders of the Company participated in the Private Placement and have acquired an aggregate of 1,280,000 Common Shares. The participation by the insiders in the Private Placement is considered to be a "related party transaction" as defined under Multilateral Instrument 61-101 ("MI 61- 101"). The transaction is exempt from the formal valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements of MI 61-101, as neither the fair market value of the securities being issued nor the consideration being paid exceeds 25% of the Company's market capitalization.

In connection with the Second Tranche, the Company will pay finders fees to eligible parties in the amount $65,250 and issue to the finder's an aggregate of 266,000 non-transferable finders warrants (the "Compensation Warrants"). The Compensation Warrants are exercisable for a period of twenty-four (24) months from the date of issue and entitle the holder thereof to acquire one Common Share of the Company at a price of $0.40 per Compensation Warrant. The net proceeds from the Private Placement will be used for general working capital purposes and to fund future capital calls of the Maricunga Project Joint Venture. The Private Placement remains subject to final acceptance from the TSX Venture Exchange.
