Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - June 21, 2021) - Sarah Armstrong-Montoya, President and Chief Executive Officer of Cordoba Minerals Corp. (TSXV: CDB) (OTCQB: CDBMF) (otherwise "Cordoba" or the "Company") announces that Cordoba has closed the second tranche of its previously announced non-brokered private placement (the "Offering") (refer to Cordoba's news release dated May 20, 2021 and June 2, 2021). In connection with the closing of this tranche of the Offering, the Company has issued an aggregate of 1,231,962 common shares of the Company (the "Common Shares") to its second largest shareholder, JCHX Mining Management Co., Ltd. ("JCHX") at a price of $1.10 per Common Share, for gross proceeds of $1,355,158.20 (the "JCHX Tranche") increasing JCHX's shareholding in Cordoba to 19.99% on an undiluted basis. Upon closing of the JCHX Tranche, the Company has received total gross proceeds of approximately $3.4 million from the Offering.

Net proceeds from the Offering will be used to continue fieldwork supporting the Pre-Feasibility Study at the Company's 100%-owned Alacran Copper-Gold-Silver Project in Colombia (refer to Cordoba's news releases dated March 31, 2021 and May 13, 2021) and for general corporate purposes.

The Common Shares are being offered pursuant to exemptions from the prospectus requirements and are subject to a four month and one day hold period expiring on October 19, 2021.

This news release does not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy any of the securities in the United States. The securities have not been and will not be registered under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (U.S. Securities Act) or any state securities laws and may not be offered or sold within the United States or to U.S. Persons unless registered under the U.S. Securities Act and applicable state securities laws or an exemption from such registration is available.

The JCHX Tranche constitutes a "related party transaction" under Multilateral Instrument 61-101 - Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions ("MI 61-101") as JCHX is a related party of Cordoba given its greater than 10% beneficial shareholding. Pursuant to Section 5.5(a) and 5.7(1)(a) of MI 61-101, the Company is exempt from obtaining a formal valuation and minority approval of the Company's shareholders in respect of the Offering due to the fair market value of the JCHX Tranche being below 25% of the Company's market capitalization for purposes of MI 61-101. The Company has filed a material change report in respect of the closing of the Offering. The material change report was filed less than 21 days prior to the closing of the Offering, which is consistent with market practice and the Company deems reasonable in the circumstances.
