Seafield Announces Adoption of Shareholder Rights Plan

Seafield Resources Ltd. ("Seafield" or the "Company") (TSX VENTURE:SFF) is
pleased to announce that its board of directors (the "Board") has approved the
adoption of a shareholder rights plan (the "Rights Plan"), subject to all
necessary regulatory and shareholder approvals. The Rights Plan is designed to
ensure that the Company's shareholders are treated fairly in the event of a
take-over bid for the Company's common shares and that the Board and
shareholders will have adequate time to evaluate any unsolicited take-over bid
and, if appropriate, to evaluate and pursue other alternatives to maximize
shareholder value.


The Rights Plan is effective as of May 14, 2013 (the "Effective Date"), subject
to approval by the TSX Venture Exchange and ratification by the shareholders of
the Company. The Rights Plan will be presented for ratification by the
shareholders at the Company's upcoming annual general and special meeting
scheduled for June 25, 2013. If approved by shareholders, the Rights Plan will
be in effect until the close of the Company's next annual general meeting.


The Board has adopted the Rights Plan in recognition that take-over bids may not
always result in shareholders receiving equal treatment or fair and full value
for their common shares. The Rights Plan is not intended to block take-over
bids. The Rights Plan grants shareholders rights ("Rights") pursuant to the
terms of the Rights Plan. On the occurrence of certain triggering events, which
include the acquisition by a person or a group of 20% or more of the outstanding
common shares of the Company in a transaction not approved by the Board, the
Rights will entitle the holders (other than the acquiring person or group) to
acquire common shares of the Company at a significant discount to the market
price. The Rights are not triggered by purchases of common shares made pursuant
to a "permitted bid" (as defined in the Rights Plan) or where the application of
the Rights Plan is waived in accordance with its terms.


The Rights Plan is not being adopted in response to any formal proposal to
acquire control of the Company.
