LGM Lions Gate Metals Inc.

Lions Gate Metals Inc. (TSX VENTURE:LGM) ("Lions Gate" or the "Company")
announces that it is returning the ROK Coyote project (the "Project") to
Firesteel Resources Inc. ("Firesteel").


The Company has made a number of offers to Firesteel to acquire a 100% interest
in the Project; however, these offers have been rejected. It is therefore with
regret that the Company has chosen to return the Project to Firesteel, in good
standing, ahead of the next payment due under the January 2011 option agreement
(the "Option Agreement"). 


A final proposal and release notice was delivered to the Firesteel board of
directors on December 20th, 2012 and expired December 31, 2012 at 5:00pm (PST).
Lions Gate was informed by Firesteel that the offer - composed of shares and
cash - was not in the best interest of their shareholders. As a result of this
decision, Lions Gate will be cancelling its Option Agreement for the Project.


Commenting on the return of the Project, Mr. Arni Johannson stated, "The Board
of Lions Gate felt that the ability to earn only a 70% interest in the project
for significant multi-year work payments in addition to cash and share payments
to the Vendor did not make fiscal sense with the current market conditions in
the junior resource sector. As such we tried to modify our Option Agreement to
better reflect the prevailing economic realities and were unable to secure new
terms."


The Company today also announces the appointment of Sharon Muzzin, CA, as Chief
Financial Officer, replacing David McAdam who has resigned from the position.
Ms. Muzzin is a CA with over 25 years of experience providing management
services to both private and public entities including several public companies
in the mining industry.


Sincerely on behalf of the Board of Directors, 

Arni Johannson, CEO & Chair

Lions Gate Metals Inc.
