RJK Explorations Ltd. Announces Share Consolidation and Private Placement

Toronto, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - July 19, 2016) - RJK Explorations Ltd. (TSXV: RJX.A) ("RJK" or the "Company") announces that the TSX Venture Exchange ("TSXV") has approved a share consolidation of the Company's issued and outstanding Class A subordinate voting shares (the "Class A Shares") (the "Consolidation"). The Board of Directors of the Company has determined, in accordance with the special resolution approved by the shareholders on May 28, 2015, to consolidate the outstanding Class A Shares at a ratio of ten (10) pre-Consolidation shares to one (1) post-Consolidation share (the "Consolidation Ratio"). The Consolidation is expected to increase the Company's flexibility with respect to potential business transactions, including any possible future equity financings.

The Consolidation is expected to be effective at the open of market on July 22, 2016 (the "Effective Date"). The Company will not change its name as part of the Consolidation, but will issue new share certificates under a new CUSIP number. No fractional shares will be issued in connection with the Consolidation and in the case where the Consolidation results in a shareholder otherwise becoming entitled to a fraction of a Class A Share, each fractional Class A Share that is less than one-half of a Class A Share may be cancelled and each fractional Class A Share that is at least one-half of a Class A Share may be changed to one (1) whole Class A Share. The Company's Class A Shares will continue to trade on the TSXV on a consolidated basis under its current symbol "RJX.A".

RJK currently has 92,811,981 Class A Shares issued and outstanding. As of the Effective Date and after giving effect to the Consolidation, the Company will have 9,281,198 Class A Shares issued and outstanding. Registered shareholders will receive a letter of transmittal from TSX Trust Company, the Company's transfer agent, with information on how to exchange their pre-Consolidation share certificates for post-Consolidation share certificates. Shares held in uncertificated form by non-registered shareholders through brokerage accounts will be converted at the Consolidation Ratio through each shareholder's brokerage accounts. Non-registered shareholders should consult their broker for further information.

RJK also announces that it will undertake a non-brokered private placement of units raising up to a maximum offering amount of $575,000 (the "Offering"). Under the terms of the Offering, RJK may sell up to 5,000,000 units (the "Units") at a price of $0.115 per Unit, each Unit comprised of one post-consolidation Class A Share of the Corporation and one Class A Share purchase warrant ("Warrant") entitling the holder to purchase an additional post-consolidation Class A Share ("Warrant Share") for up to two years following its date of issue at a price of $0.20 per Warrant Share during the first year of the term and at a price of $0.30 during the second year of the term.

Net proceeds from the Offering will be used for mineral exploration, property option agreement payments, and general corporate purposes.
