Phoenix Gold Resources Corp. Announces $250,000 Unit Offering to Existing Shareholders
The Unit Offering remains subject to the policies and approval of the TSX Venture Exchange and will be conducted in reliance upon certain prospectus exemptions, including the exemption allowing issuers to raise capital by distributing securities to existing shareholders (the "Existing Shareholder Exemption"). Securities issued under the Unit Offering will be subject to a four month hold period from the date of issuance.
The opportunity to purchase Units under the Unit Offering is in reliance on the Existing Shareholder Exemption that is available to all shareholders of the Company, as at the record date of February 13, 2015, to a maximum subscription of $15,000 per shareholder, unless otherwise allowable under applicable securities laws.
The Unit Offering is being allocated to subscribers on a "first come, first served" basis wherein the subscribers who are first to submit a completed subscription agreement and pay the corresponding subscription proceeds will be accepted up until the maximum offering amount of $250,000 is reached. Under the maximum offering, the Company would issue 5,000,000 Units for gross proceeds of $250,000. There is no minimum offering amount. Although the Unit Offering is not being offered pro rata, all shareholders of record will be treated equally but the Company reserves the right not to accept smaller subscription amounts, such as amounts less than $1,000, to avoid disproportionate administrative expenses.
Additional details of the proposed Unit Offering are outlined in the Company's attached letter to shareholders and information sheet.

DEAR SHAREHOLDERS,
On February 17th, 2015, Phoenix Gold Resources Corp. (the "Company") announced that it intended to raise gross proceeds of up to C$250,000 through a private placement offering to existing shareholders of units ("Units") of the Company at a price of C$0.05/Unit (the "Unit Offering"). Each Unit is comprised of one common share and one-half common share purchase warrant, and each whole warrant (a "Warrant") entitles the holder to acquire one additional common share of the Company at an exercise price of C$0.10 per share for 24 months following the date of issuance.
The Company's Unit Offering is described in greater detail in the enclosed Information Sheet, and shareholders of the Company can obtain further information by contacting the Company or requesting the Company to contact the shareholder, as described on the Information Sheet.
In particular, the Company will be relying on certain exemptions from securities restrictions in connection with its Unit Offering private placement, including the existing shareholder exemption, the accredited investor exemption, and the offshore investor exemption, which are described further in the attached Information Sheet.
The Company remains very excited about the development prospects of its mineral properties in Battle Mountain, Nevada, and believes the Unit Offering will pave the way for further drilling on the Eldorado Project and the maximization of shareholder value. Please do not hesitate to contact us to obtain more information about the Unit Offering and the Company.
On behalf of the Board,
Glenn Laing
President, Chief Executive Officer and Director
