Red Eagle Mining update on the Colombian Constitutional Court Paramos ruling

VANCOUVER, Feb. 26, 2016 /CNW/ - Red Eagle Mining Corporation (TSX-V: RD, OTCQX: RDEMF, SSE-V: RDCL) clarifies the Colombian Constitutional Court ruling (the "Ruling") on mining activity within the páramos, Colombia's high-altitude ecosystems, has no impact on Red Eagle Mining's Santa Rosa Gold Project. The San Ramon Gold Mine, is fully permitted, fully-financed, has been in construction since mid-2015 and is expected to be in production during the second half of 2016.

The Ruling has a relatively minor impact on the Vetas Gold Project, which has been reduced from 352 hectares to 299 hectares. The purchase agreement on that particular concession has been amended, reducing the purchase price to reflect the area lost.  No exploration has been conducted in the affected area. The Ruling does not impact development plans for the Vetas Gold Project.
