Blue Thunder Announces Acquisition of Strategic Exploration Data

Toronto, June 9, 2020 - Blue Thunder Mining Inc. (TSXV: BLUE) ("BLUE" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has entered into a data purchase agreement with Honey Badger Exploration Inc. (TSXV: TUF) ("Honey Badger"), to purchase more than 6,250 line-kilometres of airborne magnetic geophysical data (the "Survey") that was completed in 2019 over parts of the Muus-Principal, Muus-Extension, Muus-S-Fold, Muus-Tectonic, Muus-East and Nisk properties ("Muus Project") (refer to Figure 1). A significant percentage of the acquired Survey covers recently acquired strategic claims that were not covered by BLUE's January 2019 airborne survey. Furthermore, parts of the Survey overlap areas of the Muus Project that were covered by the 2019 survey, but at a tighter flight-line spacing and lower altitude, providing higher-resolution data for geological interpretation and targeting purposes. As consideration for the exploration data, BLUE will issue 3,200,000 common shares at a deemed price of $0.125 per common share to Honey Badger, subject to TSX Venture Exchange approval.

"We are pleased to add the technical data acquired from Honey Badger to the growing list of exploration information in our Muus Project database. The geophysical data will assist the Company greatly in defining exploration targets and outlining areas that require further follow-up during our exploration programs for 2020 and beyond."

-Robert Cinits, President and CEO

The scientific and technical information that forms the basis for parts of this press release was reviewed and approved by John Langton (P.Geo.), who is a Qualified Person "(QP") as defined by National Instrument 43-101. Mr. Langton has previously visited the Muus property; however, due to COVID-19 travel and Québec-based work restrictions, he has not yet visited the recently acquired Fancamp and Embry properties, and thus cannot validate the historical databases nor the results of the historical work. With the recent reduction of the restrictions, Mr. Langton will complete a site visit at the earliest opportunity.
