Blue Moon Announces Agreement To Buyback 2% NSR

VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / September 2, 2020 / Blue Moon Zinc Corp. (TSXV:MOON;OTCPINK:BMOOF) (the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has agreed to buyback a 2% Net Smelter Return ("NSR") on the Company's Blue Moon polymetallic project. The NSRs were originally issued to the two founding prospectors of the project. The NSR holders have agreed to accept US$22,000 cash in return for the buyback.

Patrick McGrath, Chief Executive Officer, stated, "The buyback of the NSRs further consolidates the ownership of the Blue Moon project. We believe the purchase price is very accretive to Blue Moon shareholders. The Blue Moon project is polymetallic with material amounts of zinc, gold, silver, and copper. The aforementioned commodity prices have increased materially in recent months, which further validates the value proposition on the NSR buyback."

The Company and Platina Resource Limited ("Platina") continue to have discussions on the future of the Blue Moon Joint Venture. The Stage One earn-in deadline for the work commitment and cash payment is February 2021.
