CALGARY, ALBERTA--(Marketwired - April 21, 2015) -

NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION TO U.S. NEWSWIRE SERVICES OR FOR DISSEMINATION IN THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA. ANY FAILURE TO COMPLY WITH THIS RESTRICTION MAY CONSTITUTE A VIOLATION OF U.S. SECURITIES LAWS.

Golden Sun Capital Inc. (NEX:GST.H) ("Golden Sun") is pleased to announce that it has entered into a share exchange agreement dated April 20, 2015 (the "Agreement") whereby it will pursue an arm's length business combination with Voyageur Industrial Minerals Ltd. ("Voyageur" or the "Company") as described below (the "Proposed Transaction"). If completed, subject to the approval of the TSX Venture Exchange (the "Exchange"), the Proposed Transaction will constitute Golden Sun's Qualifying Transaction as set forth in Policy 2.4 of the Exchange. The Proposed Transaction is subject to Voyageur and Golden Sun raising at least $1,000,000 (up to a maximum of $2,500,000) in project financing to complete the first phase of its development program (the "Project Financing") and to certain other conditions.

The Proposed Transaction

Subject to any regulatory, director or other approvals that may be required, the completion of satisfactory due diligence by Golden Sun and Voyageur, and the satisfaction of other conditions contained in the Agreement, it is currently contemplated that the Qualifying Transaction will occur via an exchange of securities pursuant to which the shareholders of Voyageur will receive common shares in the capital of Golden Sun (the "Golden Sun Shares") in exchange for 100% of the common shares of Voyageur (the "Voyageur Shares") based on an exchange ratio (the "Exchange Ratio") of one Golden Sun Share for each Voyageur Share. The Proposed Transaction values all of the 43,700,000 currently issued Voyageur Shares at $4,370,000 implying a value of $0.10 per Voyageur Share.

Other than as set forth above, Voyageur has no other securities reserved for issuance other than up to 25,000,000 Voyageur Shares and 25,000,000 warrants to acquire Voyageur Shares that may be issued pursuant the Project Financing (such warrants being exchangeable for Golden Sun warrants on the same terms).

Pursuant to the Policy 2.4 of the Exchange, following closing of the Proposed Transaction all securities held by principals of the resulting issuer will be escrowed. It is expected that this will result in the escrow of approximately 41,200,000 new Golden Sun Shares representing 70.7% of the issued and outstanding shares of the resulting issuer, assuming the minimum Project Financing is completed.

Following completion of the Proposed Transaction and subject to Exchange approval, Golden Sun expects to change its name and carry on business as "Voyageur Industrial Minerals Ltd." and be classified as a Tier 2 natural resources issuer under the policies of the Exchange.

The Proposed Transaction is subject to a number of conditions, including the requirement to obtain the Project Financing on terms satisfactory to Voyageur. If the Project Financing minimum is not obtained by the Company then the Proposed Transaction may not proceed unless otherwise agreed to by the Exchange.

Voyageur Industrial Minerals Ltd.

Voyageur was incorporated under the Business Corporations Act (Alberta) on December 3, 2012 for the purpose of the identification, acquisition, exploration and development of mineral properties, primarily in the Province of British Columbia.

The Voyageur project area is composed of three non-contiguous groups of mining claims located in British Columbia within a 50 km radius of the town of Radium Hot Springs, B.C., totaling approximately 1815 hectares. The three project areas are known as the Frances Creek Prospect, the Jubilee Mountain Prospect and the Pedley Mountain Prospect (collectively, the "Prospects"). As of the date hereof exploration and mining permits are in place on the Frances Creek and Jubilee Mountain Prospects. Voyageur intends to initiate the exploration permitting process with respect to Pedley Mountain following closing of the Proposed Transaction.

Voyageur owns the claims, having acquired them from the former operator, Tiger Ridge Resources Ltd. ("Tiger Ridge"), a non-arm's length private company. Two executive officers and control persons of Voyageur (Mr. Brad Willis and Mr. Brent Willis of Calgary, Alberta) are also principals of Tiger Ridge.

Tiger Ridge retained a 3.5% net milled barite sales royalty, and a 3.5% net smelter return royalty on precious metals on each of the Prospects (the "Tiger Ridge Royalties"). In addition to the six Tiger Ridge Royalties, certain of the claims associated with the Prospects are also burdened by two previously existing arm's length royalties of $2.00/tonne on finished barite and $2.00/tonne on metals concentrate production (the "Third-Party Royalties"). The Tiger Ridge Royalties can be purchased anytime, at the option of the Corporation, for $2,000,000 per royalty until January 2019. The Third Party Royalties can be purchased from the royalty holder for $500,000 per royalty as it relates to the production of barite from the applicable claims, or for $1,000,000 per royalty for the royalty in its entirety.

Tiger Ridge explored the Frances Creek Prospect and explored and produced barite from the Jubilee Mountain Prospect between 1998 and 2005. The mine was closed due to low prices for barite in 2005, which have since recovered. Consequently, Voyageur is contemplating re-opening the Tiger Ridge mine on the Jubilee Mountain Prospect and also opening barite mining operations at the Frances Creek and Pedley Mountain Prospects once regulatory approval has been obtained.

Based on the report completed by Henkle & Associates pursuant to the provisions of NI 43-101 - Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects, with an effective date of February 10, 2015, in respect of the Prospects, Voyageur has proposed the following exploration expenditures:

Project Financing

Voyageur is undertaking a non-brokered private placement by offering up to 25,000,000 units ("Units") at a price of $0.10 per Unit (the "Unit Offering") for aggregate gross proceeds of up to $2,500,000 (the "Maximum Offering"), subject to a minimum offering of $1,000,000 (the "Minimum Offering"). Each Unit is comprised of one Voyageur Share and one Voyageur Share purchase warrant (each a "Voyageur Warrant"). Each Voyageur Warrant will entitle the holder thereof to acquire one Voyageur Share at an exercise price of $0.18 at any time prior to 5:00 pm. (Calgary time) on the date that is 24 months from the issuance of the Unit. Provided, however, that if the Voyageur Shares (or the Golden Sun Shares for which they are exchanged pursuant to the Proposed Transaction) trade on the Exchange or comparable exchange at a weighted average trading price of $0.25 or higher for 20 consecutive trading days, the resulting issuer will have the right to accelerate the time of expiry of the Voyageur Warrants provided that it delivers a notice to the warrantholders not less than 30 days prior to the date fixed as the new expiration date.

In addition, it is anticipated that a maximum of 10,000,000 common shares will be issued on a "flow-through basis" pursuant to the Income Tax Act (Canada) ("Flow-Through Shares") at a price of $0.12 per Flow-Through Share (the "Flow-Through Offering") in such combination with the Unit Offering that the aggregate funds raised through the Unit Offering and the Flow-Through Offering will be no more than the Maximum Offering and no less than the Minimum Offering. If only the Minimum Offering is completed, no less than $500,000 must come from the sale of 5,000,000 Units.

Subscribers of Flow-Through Share will be entitled to renunciation, effective on or before December 31, 2015, of "Canadian exploration expenses" as such term is defined in the Income Tax Act (Canada) in an amount equal to the aggregate subscription price for the Flow-Through Shares paid by such subscriber, incurred (or be deemed to incur), on or before December 31, 2016.
