Champion Bear is a mineral exploration company focused exclusively on the historically prospective regions of
Ontario. The Company's primary target is platinum group and precious metals and to a lesser extent polymetallic base metal
and pegmatite-hosted tantalum deposits. Champion Bear's aim is to create shareholder value through selective property
acquisition and joint venture followed by focused exploration emphasizing drilling. The Company has assembled a large land
position in the Dryden and Sudbury areas, totaling over 16,000 hectares.
This news release contains forward-looking statements concerning the completion of the private placement, the use of
proceeds of the private placement and the timing and composition of the exploration programs to be completed on certain of
Champion Bear's mineral properties which are based on Champion Bear's current internal expectations, which may prove to be
incorrect. These statements are not a guarantee of future performance and undue reliance should not be placed on
them. Such forward-looking statements necessarily involve known and unknown risks and uncertainties that are common to
junior mineral exploration companies. These risks and uncertainties include, among other things, Champion Bear's need for
additional funding to continue its exploration efforts, changes in general economic, market and business conditions; and
competition for, among other things, capital and skilled personnel. The Company undertakes no obligation to update or revise any
forward-looking statements except as required by applicable securities laws.
