Peat Resources Limited (TSX VENTURE:PET) (the "Company" or "Peat") is pleased to
announce that it closed its previously announced brokered private placement
filed under the Temporary Relief From Certain Pricing Requirements. The Company
issued 3,750,000 units at a price of $0.04 per unit, for aggregate gross
proceeds of $150,000. Each unit consists of one common share in the capital of
the Company (a "Common Share") plus one warrant. Each warrant will entitle the
holder thereof to purchase one Common Share for a period of one year from the
date of issuance of the warrants at an exercise price of $0.05 per Common Share
and for three additional years for a price of $0.10. The securities issued
pursuant to the private placement are subject to a four-month hold period. The
private placement remains subject to final acceptance by the TSX Venture
Exchange (the "TSXV"). The Company engaged IBK Capital Corp. to assist in the
private placement. As a result, a commission of 10% cash and 10% brokers
warrants (carrying the same terms as the unit warrants) was given on Canadian
subscriptions that totalled $110,000.


The private placement was approved by the Board of Directors, excluding those
that have a direct interest in the use of proceeds (see the table below).


The funds from the private placement will be used for the following purposes:
