Golden Valley Mines and Uranium Valley Mines Announce Termination of

Option Agreement and Concurrent Non-Brokered Private Placement

Val-d’Or, Québec – February 17, 2017 – Golden Valley Mines Ltd. ( “Golden Valley”)

(TSX-V:GZZ) and Uranium Valley Mines Ltd. (“Uranium Valley”) (TSX -V:VZZ.H) regret

to announce that they have terminated the Mining Option Agreement as more particularly

described in the joint news release of December 14, 2016.

In addition, Uranium Valley is not closing the concurrent non- brokered private placement for

gross proceeds of $718,000.

The option agreement and concurrent financing were terminated as Uranium Valley was not able

to obtain minority shareholder approval as required by Multilateral Instrument 61-101 and TSX

Venture Exchange policies and which was a condition to completion of the transactions.

Uranium Valley will continue exploration on its Porcupine Miracle Prospect near Timmins,

Ontario and will also look at other mining exploration opportunities to maximize shareholder

value.

Golden Valley is currently looking at other potential transactions regarding its grassroots

properties and will continue to work with its financial advisor, Maxit Capital to consider

strategic alternatives.
