Northern Empire Completes $15 Million Bought Deal Financing

Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - November 28, 2017) - Northern Empire Resources Corp. (TSXV: NM) (the "Company" or "Northern Empire") is pleased to announce that it has closed its previously announced offering of 16,666,667 common shares of the Company (the "Common Shares") at a price of $0.90 per Common Share (the "Offering Price") for aggregate gross proceeds to the Company of $15,000,000.30 (the "Offering"). The Offering was completed by a syndicate of underwriters led by Cormark Securities Inc., as lead underwriter and bookrunner, and including GMP Securities L.P., Canaccord Genuity Corp., Haywood Securities Inc. and M Partners Inc. (together, the "Underwriters"). The number of Common Shares sold by the Company includes the exercise of the over-allotment option, in full, by the Underwriters.

As consideration for the services rendered by the Underwriters in connection with the Offering, the Company paid the Underwriters a cash commission of 6.0% of the gross proceeds raised from the sale of the Commons Shares other than in connection with certain president's list purchasers in which case the fee was reduced to 1.5%.

The Offering is subject to the final approval of the TSX Venture Exchange.

The Common Shares issued under the Offering were offered by way of a short form prospectus dated November 21, 2017 (the "Prospectus") in all of the provinces of Canada, except for Québec. Copies of the Prospectus and documents incorporated by reference therein are available electronically under the Company's profile on SEDAR at www.sedar.com.

The proceeds of the Offering will be used in the manner described in the Prospectus.

Insiders of the Company have subscribed for an aggregate of 4,161,212 Common Shares under the Offering. The issuance of Common Shares to insiders pursuant to the Offering (the "Insider Participation") is considered to be a related party transaction within the meaning of TSX Venture Exchange Policy 5.9 and Multilateral Instrument 61-101 ("MI 61-101"). The Company has relied on the exemptions from the valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements of MI 61-101 contained in Sections 5.5(b) and 5.7(1)(a) of MI 61-101 in respect of any Insider Participation.
