Lions Gate Metals Announces $1,500,000 Financing

Lions Gate Metals Inc. (TSX VENTURE:LGM) ("Lions Gate" or the "Company")
announces that it intends to carry out a non-brokered private placement
consisting of up to 937,500 units ("Hard Units") at a price of $0.80 each and
750,000 flow-through units ("FT Units") at a price of $1.00 each for aggregate
gross proceeds of up to $1,500,000.


Each Hard Unit is comprised of one non-flow-through common share in the capital
of the Company and one-half of one non-transferable share purchase warrant (each
whole warrant, a "Warrant"). Each Warrant will entitle the holder to acquire one
non-flow-through common share of the Company for $1.00 at any time within five
years after the date the Warrants are issued.


Each FT Unit is comprised of one flow-through common share in the capital of the
Company and one-half of one Warrant.


Directors, officers and insiders of the company intend on participating in the
private placement.


The Company may pay a finder's fee in cash equal to 7% of the gross proceeds in
respect of subscriptions from arm's length parties. The closing of the private
placement and the payment of any finder's fee are subject to the acceptance of
the TSX Venture Exchange.


Proceeds from the financing will be used to advance the Company's exploration
projects with a focus on the flagship Poplar Project in British Columbia. The
recent hiring of Andrew Gourlay, P.Geol. as the Company's VP of Exploration
affirms that project development continues to be the Company's priority.


Sincerely on behalf of the Board of Directors,

Arni Johannson, CEO and Chairman of the Board

Lions Gate Metals Inc.
