Lions Gate Metals Inc. (TSX VENTURE:LGM) ("Lions Gate" or the "Company") is
pleased to announce that it has signed an amended Communication and Engagement
Agreement (CEA) with the Office of the Wet'suwet'en. The amendments extend the
terms of the original CEA to ensure continued First Nations support with the
Company's exploration activity in parts of the Wet'suwet'en traditional
territories where LGM wishes to advance select exploration activities this
summer. 


"In summary," says Blair McIntyre, Vice President of Lions Gate, "this extension
amendment ensures that the Office of the Wet'suwet'en leadership continues to
support the efforts of the Company and demonstrates that we, as corporate
citizens, continue our best efforts to act in good conscience and with social
responsibility. Community relationship-building is an ongoing process, and one
that the Company is committed to." Since the Company engaged meaningful
relations with local First Nations, the Company has: endeavored to hire local
First Nations people to work on Company exploration programs; provided capacity
funding to ensure meaningful engagement; funded a traditional Land Use Study to
address project specific risks; conducted an Open House information session;
sponsored and participated in local First Nations events. 


Moving forward, the Company will continue to collaborate and engage First
Nations in meaningful ways, including holding gatherings at exploration
locations, and promoting ongoing involvement in oversight of work taking place
on First Nations traditional territories. 


Lions Gate President and CEO, Paul Sarjeant, concludes, "By ensuring full
transparency with the Wet'suwet'en, we hope to demonstrate that, First Nations
collaboration and employment are integral to our exploration processes, and
further that First Nations input illustrates our Company's commitment to
meaningful and authentic community consultation." 


The Company has terminated its Investor Relations Agreement with Advanture
Capital that was entered into June 8, 2011.
