Exhibit 99.1
ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING OF SHAREHOLDERS
NOTICE-AND-ACCESS NOTIFICATION TO SHAREHOLDERS
You are receiving this notice asALEXCO RESOURCE CORP. (the “Corporation” or “Alexco”) has chosen to use the notice-and-access model for delivery of meeting materials to its shareholders in respect of its annual general meeting of shareholders to be held on Thursday, June 6, 2019 (the “Meeting”). Under notice-and-access, shareholders still receive a proxy or voting instruction form enabling them to vote at the Meeting. However, instead of receiving a paper copy of the notice of meeting and information circular (the “Information Circular”) for the Meeting (the “Meeting Materials”), shareholders are receiving this notice with information on how to access such Meeting Materials electronically.

Alexco will not use procedures known as “stratification” in relation to its use of notice-and-access in relation to the Meeting. Stratification occurs when a reporting issuer using notice-and-access provides a paper copy of the relevant information circular to some, but not all, shareholders with the notice package in relation to the relevant meeting.
