VANCOUVER, BC, Feb. 23,
2024 /CNW/ - Scottie Resources Corp. (TSXV:
SCOT) (OTCQB: SCTSF) (FSE:SR8) ("Scottie" or
the "Company") is pleased to announce that, further to
the Company's news releases dated January
18, and January 22, 2024, the
Company has closed the second and final tranche (the "Second

5,044,445 flow-through units (the "Charity FT Units") at a

Each NFT Unit consists of one common share in the capital of the

Warrant entitles the holder to purchase an additional Share (a
"Warrant Share") at an exercise price of $0.28 per Warrant Share for a period of three (3)
years from the date of issuance.
Each Charity FT Unit is comprised of one Share that qualifies as
a "flow-through share" within the meaning of subsection 66(15) of
the Tax Act and one-half of one Warrant. Each whole Warrant
entitles the holder thereof to purchase an additional Share at an
exercise price of $0.28 per Warrant
Share for a period of three (3) years from the date of
issuance.
Pursuant to the Private Placement, the Company issued an
aggregate of 12,361,112 NFT Units at a price of $0.18 per NFT Unit and 5,044,445 Charity FT Units

In connection with the Private Placement, the Company issued
288,333 finder's warrants (each a "Finder's Warrant") and

certain finders. Each Finder's Warrant entitles the holder thereof
to purchase one Share at a price of $0.28 per Share for a period of three (3) years
from the date of issuance.
The Company intends to use the gross proceeds raised from the
Charity FT Units in the Second Tranche for exploration and related
programs on the Company's Scottie and Blueberry mineral properties
which qualify as "Canadian Exploration Expenses" as such term is
defined in paragraph (f) of the definition of "Canadian exploration

that will qualify as "flow-through mining expenditures", and "BC
flow-through mining expenditures" as defined in subsection 4.721(1)
of the Income Tax Act (British
Columbia), which will be incurred on or before December 31, 2025 and renounced with an effective
date no later than December 31, 2024,
to the initial purchasers of Charity FT Units. The Company intends
to use the gross proceeds raised from the NFT Units in the Second
Tranche for general working capital and administrative
purposes.
