Paul Cronin, Adriatic's Managing Director and CEO commented:

"The last quarter of 2020 culminated in the successful delivery of several important workstreams including a hugely positive Pre-Feasibility Study for the Vares Silver Project with improved economics in comparison to our 2019 Scoping Study, raising US$28 million of funding from EBRD and Queens Road Capital and completing the acquisition of Tethyan Resource Corp.

The Company is well positioned to build on these achievements during 2021 as we progress the Definitive Feasibility Study for the Vares Silver Project and associated financing and further prove up the potential of the additional exploration ground acquired from Tethyan to diversify and further strengthen the Company's asset portfolio."

1. Pre-Feasibility Study

The Company released an exceptional Pre-Feasibility Study ("PFS") for its wholly owned Vares Silver Project in Bosnia & Herzegovina on 15 October 2020. Highlights included:

   --      US$1,040 million post-tax NPV(8) 
   --      Internal Rate of Return of 113% 
   --      Low upfront capital of US$ 173 million 
   --      1.2 years payback 
   --      Average annual EBITDA of US$ 251 million in years 1-5 

-- 11.1 Mt of Probable Ore Reserves mined over a 14-year mine life, annual throughput of 800 kt

   --      88.5% conversion of Indicated Resources to Ore Reserves at Rupice 
   --      45.3% of revenues from silver and gold 

-- Low environmental impact with underground mining and partial tailings backfill at Rupice, and use of brownfield Veovaca mine site for majority of plant infrastructure

The PFS relies on significantly more robust inputs over 2019 Scoping Study including:

   --      2020 Mineral Resource estimate with improved geological interpretation 
   --      Metallurgical domaining of the orebody 

The Company confirmed, that based on the positive outcome of the PFS, work was immediately commencing on the Definitive Feasibility Study.

2. Financing

On 27 October 2020 the Company announced that it had entered into binding agreements for a US$28 million financing, comprising a US$20 million private placement of 8.5% unsecured convertible debentures (the "Debentures") to Queen's Road Capital Investment Ltd. ("QRC") (TSXV: QRC) and a subscription by the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development ("EBRD") for GBP6.2 million (US$8 million) in ordinary shares of the Company ("Ordinary Shares") at a price of GBP1.175 per share (the "EBRD Subscription").

The EBRD Subscription settlement and completion was subsequently announced on 2 November 2020 raising gross proceeds of GBP6.2 million.

On 1 December 2020 the Company advised it had closed the QRC private placement raising gross proceeds of US$20 million before transaction costs.

3. Vares Project Permitting Approvals

On 19 November 2020, Adriatic announced that it had received the Urban Planning Permit for the Veovaca project area (Open Pit, Plant & Tailings areas) from the Federal Ministry of Spatial Planning. The approval reflects the strong support from government and commercial stakeholders.

4. Acquisition of Tethyan Resource Corp.

On 7 October 2020 Adriatic announced that, except for Admission, all conditions to closing had been satisfied in respect of the business combination, pursuant to which Adriatic would acquire all of the common shares of Tethyan Resource Corp.

Leveraging its first-mover advantage, Adriatic is rapidly advancing the project into the development phase and through to production with significant cornerstone investment of US$28 million from Queen's Road Capital Investment and European Bank for Reconstruction and Development .

There have been no material changes to the assumptions underpinning the forecast financial information derived from the production target in the 15 October 2020 announcement and these assumptions continue to apply. There have been no material changes to the assumptions and technical parameters on the updated Mineral Resource Estimate announced on 1 September 2020 and these assumptions continue to apply.

Adriatic Metals acquired TSX-listed Tethyan Resource Corp in 2020, to advance the former Kizevak and Sastavci polymetallic mines in the Raska District, southern Serbia.
