Solaris Resources Inc. Advances Conditional Listing Approval; Closes C$1.2M Placement with Lundin

VANCOUVER, June 11, 2020 - Solaris Resources Inc. ("Solaris" or the "Company") is pleased to announce advancement of the conditional approval received from the TSX Venture Exchange (the "Exchange") for listing of its shares on the Exchange as a Tier 2 issuer under the symbol "TSXV: SLS". Subject to fulfillment of customary conditions, the listing is expected to occur in the third quarter. No public offering of shares is anticipated in connection with the listing.

In addition, and separate to the listing, the Company announces that it has completed a non-brokered private placement financing with trusts established by the Lundin Family ("Lundin"), raising proceeds of C$1.2 million. The proceeds will be used to advance exploration efforts at the Company's properties, and for general and working capital purposes.

Pursuant to the private placement, Solaris issued 1,500,000 units of the Company at a price of C$0.80 per unit, with each unit consisting of one common share and one common share purchase warrant. Each warrant entitles Lundin to acquire one common share at a price of C$1.20 for a period of three years.

Mr. Daniel Earle, President & CEO, commented, "We are very proud to have the continued support of Lundin among our strategic shareholders. The Lundin brand is renowned for environmentally and socially responsible resource development in Ecuador, an approach wholly embraced by Solaris. With over C$25 million of cash on hand, the Company is well positioned to complete our listing and resume exploration at Warintza, with strict protocols in place to protect the health and safety of our workers and partner communities."

Final approval of the listing is subject to Solaris meeting certain standard requirements of the Exchange. The Company expects to satisfy all of the requirements and will make a further announcement once the Exchange has issued a bulletin confirming the date on which trading will commence.
