SAGUENAY, QUEBEC – (May 7, 2019) – Arianne Phosphate (the \u201cCompany\u201d or \u201cArianne\u201d) (TSX VENTURE: DAN; OTC: DRRSF; FRANKFURT: JE9N)<\/strong>, a development-stage phosphate mining company, advancing the Lac \u00e0 Paul project in Quebec\u2019s Saguenay-Lac-Saint-Jean region is pleased to announce that it has closed on a $1.5 million investment from the Government of Quebec by way of private placement into the common shares of Arianne.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe last six months have been very significant for Arianne as it has advanced its project towards development,\u201d said Brian Ostroff, CEO of Arianne Phosphate.  \u201cWith executed offtake agreements, permits in place and, a strong global awareness of our Lac \u00e0 Paul asset, I believe that we are making very solid progress towards the development of this mine.  The development of Lac \u00e0 Paul will strengthen the region\u2019s economy, providing several thousand jobs and pioneering a new long-lasting industry for Quebec. I appreciate the support of the Government in helping us to make this happen and look forward to their continued support as the project moves through the project financing stage.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe phosphate industry is one of opportunity and strategic importance for the Province of Quebec,\u201d said Dominique Bouchard, executive chairman of the board of director.  \u201cArianne Phosphate, the owner of the Lac \u00e0 Paul Project, is well placed to pioneer this industry and generate tremendous socio-economic benefits for the region.  Further, given the clean and high-quality nature of the phosphate concentrate that will be produced, it is in keeping with the goal of being a good steward of the environment while generating opportunity for all stakeholders.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Under the terms of the offering, the Government of Quebec is subscribing for 3,671,970 common shares of the Company at a price of $0.4085 per share; this price representing the 5-day volume weighted average price preceding the pricing of the financing. The securities issued in connection with the financing are subject to a regulatory hold period of four (4) months and one (1) day expiring on September 6, 2019. The financing remains subject to the final approval of the Exchange.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
