(TSX: RV) ("Revolution" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has closed its previously announced bought deal public offering, including the full exercise of the over-allotment option granted to the underwriters.  The Company issued 16,962,500 units at a price of $0.34 per unit for gross proceeds of $5,767,250 (the "Offering"). Each unit was comprised of one common share and one-half of one transferable share purchase warrant.  Each whole share purchase warrant will entitle the holder to acquire one common share of the Company at a price $0.60 for a period of 18 months following the closing of the Offering.

Each Broker Warrant will entitle the holder to acquire one common share of the Company at a price of $0.60 for a period of 18 months following the closing of the Offering.

The Company expects to use the net proceeds from the Offering to advance the Universo property in Mexico and the Champion Hills project in North Carolina, and for general working capital purposes.
