IDM Mining Ltd. (TSX:IDM) ("IDM" or the "Company") announces a non-brokered private placement offering (the "Offering") to sell flow-through units ("Flow-Through Units") at a price of $0.11 per Flow-Through Unit and non-flow-through units ("Common Units") at a price of $0.09 per Common Share Unit, for aggregate gross proceeds of up to $2.2 million.

Each Common Unit shall consist of one common share of the Company (a "Common Share") and one-half of one non-transferable share purchase warrant, with each such whole warrant entitling the holder thereof to acquire one Common Share at a price of $0.14 per Common Share for a period of twenty-four (24) months following the closing of the Offering.

Each Flow-Through Unit shall consist of one flow-through common share and one-half of one non-transferrable share purchase warrant, with each whole warrant entitling the holder thereof to acquire one non flow-through Common Share in the capital of the Company at a price of $0.14 per Common Share for a period of twenty-four (24) months following the closing of the Offering.

The warrants issued in the Offering will not be listed for trading.

A maximum of 24.4 million units are issuable under the Offering, which assumes that the maximum gross proceeds are raised through the issuance of Common Units only.

The Company will pay to certain finders a cash fee equal to 6% of the gross proceeds raised from the sale of the Flow-Through Units and the Common Units to purchasers introduced to the Company by the finder (collectively, the "Found Units") and will issue finder warrants ("Finder's Warrants") equal to 6% of the Found Units sold pursuant to the Offering, with each Finder's Warrant entitling the holder to purchase one Common Share at a price of $0.10 for a period of twelve (12) months following the closing of the Offering.

The Company intends to use the net proceeds of the Offering for continued permitting, engineering and development activities on its Red Mountain Property located near Stewart, BC, and for its portfolio of properties it is purchasing in Yukon from Oban Mining (see IDM Mining News Release dated December 7, 2017) and for working capital purposes.

The Offering is subject to receipt of regulatory approvals including approval of the Toronto Stock Exchange and may require shareholder approval.
