VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwired - Mar 18, 2014) - Skyharbour Resources Ltd. (TSX-VENTURE:SYH)(PINKSHEETS:SYHBF) ("Skyharbour") announces that, due to strong response from investors, the Company has increased its non-brokered private placement financing to $750,000 from the initially targeted $500,000 as set out in the Company's news release dated March 7, 2014. The amended financing will be completed through the issuance of up to 5,000,000 units at a price of $0.15 per unit ("Unit"). Each Unit consists of one common share and one-half of one non-transferable share purchase warrant ("Warrant"), with each whole Warrant entitling the holder to purchase one common share for a period of two years at a price of $0.20 per share.

In connection with the financing, the Company may pay a cash finder's fee equal to 7.0% of the gross proceeds raised under the private placement and that number of non-transferable broker warrants equal to 7.0% of the number of Units sold. Each broker warrant shall be exercisable into one common share of the Company for a period of two years at a price of $0.20 per share. All the securities issuable will be subject to a four-month hold period from the date of closing. The private placement is subject to the approval of the TSX Venture Exchange.

The Company intends to utilize the proceeds of this private placement for the continued exploration of the Company's uranium projects in the Athabasca Basin and for general working capital purposes. Skyharbour has already met its first-year work commitment of $500,000 towards the Western Athabasca Syndicate property package including the current drill program underway at the Preston Uranium Project.
