("Cadillac") (TSXV: CDC) and KFG Resources Ltd.
("KFG") (TSXV: KFG) are pleased to announce that they have
entered into a definitive arrangement agreement (the

shareholders present in person or represented by proxy at a special
meeting of KFG shareholders to be called in connection with the
Transaction (the "Meeting") in addition to any minority
approval required under Multilateral Instrument 61-101 -
Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special
Transactions. In addition to KFG shareholder approval, closing
of the Transaction is subject to the receipt of certain regulatory,
court and stock exchange approvals and the satisfaction of other
closing conditions customary in transactions of this nature.
Further information regarding the Transaction will be contained
in a management information circular that KFG will prepare, file
and mail to KFG shareholders in connection with the Meeting. All
KFG shareholders are urged to read the information circular once
available as it will contain additional important information
concerning the Transaction.
The Transaction has been unanimously approved by the board of
directors of both KFG and Cadillac. The board of directors of KFG
unanimously recommends that KFG shareholders vote in favour of the
Transaction at the Meeting.
Following completion of the Transaction, it is anticipated one
KFG director will be appointed to the Cadillac board of directors
