Canasil Sets December 12, 2017, as Date for Special Meeting of Shareholders for Proposed Spin-off
of B.C. Properties to Canmine Minerals Inc.
Vancouver, October 24, 2017 - Canasil Resources Inc. ( TSX-V: CLZ , DB Frankfurt: 3CC, “Canasil” or the
“Company”) announces that it has set December 12, 2017, as the date for the Special Meeting of
Shareholders to consider the spin-off transaction to segregate its British Columbia properties into a
separate company, Canmine Minerals Inc. (“Canmine”), as previously announced on July 26, 2017.
Shareholders of Canasil will receive shares of Canmine in proportion to their shareholdings of Canasil, and
Canasil will continue to hold its Mexican assets. It is proposed that the transaction will be carried out as a
Plan of Arrangement under the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia). Complete details of the
proposed transaction will be set out in the Information Circular to be sent to shareholders of Canasil on or
before November 15, 2017. The transaction and related documents are subject to approval by the TSX
Venture Exchange.
The transaction is intended to unlock value for Canasil shareholders by allowing the market to
independently value the British Columbia properties, and by providing greater flexibility to arrange funding
to actively advance exploration programs on these properties.
The consideration for the transfer of the BC Properties will be based on the issuance of common shares
(the “Consideration Shares”) of Canmine, which will be distributed to Canasil shareholders based on one
share of Canmine for each two shares of Canasil held, following approval of the transaction and other
required procedures. Warrant holders and Option holders of Canasil will receive warrants or options of
Canmine which are proportionate to, and commensurate with the terms of, their existing Canasil warrants
or options. Canasil may retain part (anticipated to be less than 10%) of the Consideration Shares, as will be
further set out in the information Circular. Over the past 23 years of continuous ownership by Canasil, an
aggregate of over $7.4 million in expenditures is attributed to the BC Properties.
