VANCOUVER, B.C., Squire Mining Ltd. (CSE: SQR) – August 21, 2018 – Further to the Company’s news release of August 10, 2018, Squire Mining announces an associate of Coingeek.com, the world’s largest miner of Bitcoin Cash (BCH), is the exclusive worldwide distributor (the “Distributor”) of the Company’s next generation ASIC chips and mining systems currently under development.

Upon completion of development and manufacture of the Company’s initial ASIC chip and mining rig, the Distributor will have the exclusive right to market, promote, solicit, sell and distribute the Company’s new ASIC chip and mining system to Bitcoin BCH and other alt coin miners under the CoinGeek.com brand, subject to certain minimum purchase requirements, as more particularly described in the Company’s news release of August 10, 2018. All marketing of the Company’s products will be done under the CoinGeek.com brand.

“We are very excited to be partnering with a market leader such as Coingeek.com and its associates. This partnership will allow us to quickly gain a strong foothold in a fast-moving, global marketplace.”— Simon Moore, Executive Chairman of Squire.

On August 10, 2018, the Company completed a private placement financing of $25,500,000 (the “Financing”) to fund, among other things, the development, manufacture and sale of data mining infrastructure and system technology (including ASIC chips and mining rigs) to support the mining of Bitcoin Cash and other alt coins such as coins using Segwit Technology. The Company expects to complete the manufacture and assembly of a pilot production test run of its initial ASIC chip and rig for mining Bitcoin Cash by the end of the fourth quarter of 2018, for delivery to Coingeek.com and its associates.

Squire also announces that it has formed a new joint venture company, Arasystems Technology Corp. (“Arasystems”), with Future Farm Developments Ltd. (“Future Farm”), a Hong Kong based technology company, to manage the development, manufacture and assembly of the Company’s next generation mining systems. Each new mining system developed by Arasystems will incorporate the Company’s latest ASIC chip and be sold globally under the Coingeek.com brand pursuant to the Company’s exclusive distributor agreement with the Distributor. The Company owns a 75% equity interest in Arasystems with Future Farm owning the remaining 25% equity interest.

Squire further announces that Arasystems has entered into a provisional agreement (the “Provisional Agreement”) with an arms-length major global technology assembly company to assist in the design and assembly of the Company’s initial next generation mining system at such time as a working prototype of the Company’s initial ASIC chip has been developed. The Provisional Agreement lays the groundwork for Arasystems to assemble and produce, at commercial volumes, new mining systems containing the 910404.18143/100626062.2 Company’s next generation ASIC chips. The Provisional Agreement is non-binding and subject to negotiation and execution of a formal design and assembly agreement.
