Colorado Increases Non-Brokered Financing to $4.6M and Completes Initial Tranche of $1.7M

WEST KELOWNA, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwired - May 19, 2016) -

NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION TO UNITED STATES NEWSWIRE SERVICES OR FOR DISSEMINATION IN THE UNITED STATES.

COLORADO RESOURCES LTD. (TSX VENTURE:CXO) ("Colorado" or the "Company") announces it has increased its previously announced non-brokered private placement (see news release of May 4, 2016) to $4,590,925 (the "Offering"). The Offering will now consist of up to 8,796,859 units of the Company (the "NFT Units") at an issue price of $0.35 per Unit and 3,600,000 common shares of the Company that qualify as flow-through shares for purposes of the Income Tax Act (Canada) and 1,800,000 warrants (collectively, the "FT Units") at an issue price of $0.42 per FT Unit.

The Company has completed the initial tranche ("Tranche 1") and has issued 2,211,430 NFT Units and 2,282,334 FT Units for aggregate gross proceeds of $1,732,580. The Company anticipates closing the remaining $2,858,345 comprised of 6,585,430 NFT Units and 1,317,666 FT Units on or before May 31, 2016.

The Company has paid finders' fees in connection with Tranche 1 of $73,928 cash and issued to finders 61,800 warrants at an exercise price of $0.35 and 117,019 warrants at an exercise price of $0.42 (collectively the "Finder Warrants"). Each Finder Warrant is otherwise exercisable on the same terms as the warrants issued to investors in the Offering.

Each NFT Unit consisted of one common share in the capital of the Company (a "NFT Share") and one common share purchase warrant (a "NFT Warrant"), with each NFT Warrant entitling the holder to acquire an additional NFT Share at an exercise price of $0.50 until May 18, 2018.

Each FT Unit consisted of one flow-through common share in the capital of the Company (a "FT Share") and one-half of one non-transferable non-flow through common share purchase warrant. Each whole warrant (a "NFT Warrant") will entitle the holder to purchase one additional common share of the Company (a "NFT Share") at an exercise price of $0.60 until May 18, 2018.

The NFT Warrant and FT Warrant terms will contain an acceleration provision such that if, commencing on September 19, 2016, the closing price of the common shares of the Company on the TSX Venture Exchange is higher than $0.75 for 20 consecutive trading days then on the 20th consecutive trading day (the "Acceleration Trigger Date") the expiry date of the Warrants may be accelerated to the date that is 20 trading days after the Acceleration Trigger Date by the issuance of a news release announcing such acceleration within two trading days of the Acceleration Trigger Date.

The proceeds will be used by the Company for exploration activities on its Canadian properties and for working capital.
