Canoe Mining Completes Shares for Debt Settlement

OAKVILLE, ON, June 12, 2015 /CNW/ - Canoe Mining Ventures Corp. (TSXV: CLV) ("Canoe") announces that further to its news release dated May 29, 2015, it has  extinguished a total of $104,165 of debt relating to consulting fees and service fees to certain arm's length and non-arm's-length parties by issuing an aggregate of 2,083,308 common shares of Canoe at a deemed price of $0.05 per share (the "Debt Settlement"). The actual debt settlement has been reduced from the previously announced amount of $117,946.68.

As part of the Debt Settlement, Mr. Duane Parnham (the President, CEO, and a director of Canoe) was issued 350,000 common shares and Growth Consulting Ltd., a company wholly owned by Mr. Ron Reed (the CFO of Canoe), was issued 350,000 common shares. The participation of each of Mr. Parnham and Growth Consulting Ltd. (collectively, the "Related Parties") in the Debt Settlement is considered a "related party transaction" under Multilateral Instrument 61-101 Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions ("MI 61-101"). Canoe is relying on Sections 5.5(a) and 5.7(1)(a) of MI 61-101, respectively, for exemptions from the formal valuation and minority approval requirements under MI 61-101, as neither the fair market value of the common shares to be issued to the Related Parties nor the amount of debt to be settled pursuant thereto exceeds 25% of Canoe's market capitalization.

All common shares issued pursuant to the Debt Settlement will be subject to a hold period of four months and one day from their date of issuance and as such are restricted from trading until October 11, 2015.

Neither TSX Venture Exchange nor its Regulation Services Provider (as that term is defined in the policies of the TSX Venture Exchange) accepts responsibility for the adequacy or accuracy of this release.

On Behalf of the Board of Directors of Canoe,
Duane Parnham, President and CEO
