Montreal, December 9, 2025. Midland Exploration Inc. (\u201cMidland\u201d<\/strong>) (TSX-V: MD<\/strong>) is pleased to announce that it has completed the closing of a non-brokered private placement by issuing a total of 4,972,876 common shares of Midland that qualify as \u201cflow-through shares\u201d within the meaning of subsection 66(15) of the Income Tax Act<\/em> (Canada) and section 359.1 of the Taxation Act <\/em>(Qu\u00e9bec) (each a \u201cFT Share\u201d) at $0.56 per FT Share and 550,000 common shares (each a \u201cShare\u201d) at $0.46 per Share, for total gross proceeds of $3,037,811 (the \u201cPrivate Placement\u201d). The securities issued in connection with the Private Placement are subject to a four-month-and-one-day statutory hold period expiring on April 10, 2026.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Centerra Gold Inc. (\u201cCenterra\u201d) has exercised its right to maintain its ownership to approximately 9.9% by acquiring 550,000 Shares. This right had been granted to Centerra on July 25, 2025 pursuant to an Investor Rights Agreement with Midland.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Midland will use the Private Placement proceeds to fund exploration works on its properties located in Quebec and for general corporate purposes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Insiders have participated in the Private Placement and were issued 443,500 FT Shares, for total gross proceeds of $348,360. Such participation in the Private Placement is considered a \u201crelated party transaction\u201d as defined in Regulation 61-101 respecting Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions<\/em> (\u201cRegulation 61-101\u201d). Midland relied on the exemptions from the formal valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements of Regulation 61-101 contained in sections 5.5(a) and 5.7(1)(a) of Regulation 61-101 as neither the fair market value of the securities issued to insiders nor the consideration for such securities by insiders exceed 25% of Midland\u2019s market capitalization. Midland did not file a material change report in respect of the transaction at least 21 days before the anticipated closing of the Private Placement, as details of such transaction were unknown at such time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As a result of the closing of the Private Placement, there are 112,973,453 common shares of Midland issued and outstanding.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Private Placement was carried out pursuant to prospectus exemptions of applicable securities laws and is subject to final acceptance by the TSX Venture Exchange. In connection with the Private Placement, finder\u2019s fees equal to an aggregate amount of $116,485 were paid to arm\u2019s length third parties of Midland.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
