VISIBLE GOLD MINES SEEKS CEASE-TRADE ORDER AGAINST UNSOLICITED OFFER BY ZARA RESOURCES

-       Visible Gold Mines files application with Qu�bec Bureau de d�cision et de r�vision

-       Cites major irregularities in offer by Zara Resources

Rouyn-Noranda, Qu�bec, Canada - September 6, 2013 - Visible Gold Mines Inc. (TSX-V: VGD) (Frankfurt: 3V4) has filed an application with the Qu�bec Bureau de d�cision et de r�vision seeking a cease-trade order and other sanctions against the unsolicited offer by Zara Resources Inc. (CNSX: ZIR) to purchase 100% of the outstanding shares of Visible Gold Mines in exchange for shares of Zara Resources.  If a cease-trade order is issued by the Qu�bec Bureau de d�cision et de r�vision, Zara Resources would not be permitted to issue shares to Visible Gold Mines shareholders in Qu�bec in payment for their shares.

The application by Visible Gold Mines is based on major irregularities and deficiencies in the unsolicited offer by Zara Resources.  In particular, Visible Gold Mines has noted the absence of a French version of Zara Resources' take-over bid circular, which violates a fundamental rule of Qu�bec securities law and makes the offer illegal.  Visible Gold Mines has also noted the sale by Mr. Danny Wettreich, CEO and principal shareholder of Zara Resources, of almost 2 million Visible Gold Mines shares on August 19, 2013, the day on which Zara Resources first announced its offer.  Visible Gold Mines considers the sale to be in direct contravention of applicable securities laws.

The application by Visible Gold Mines also invokes the failure by Zara Resources to adequately disclose in its take-over bid circular that Zara's offer to acquire 100% of the outstanding shares of Visible Gold Mines is independent of the simultaneous offers made by Zara Resources for 100% of the shares of two unrelated mining exploration companies, and is not conditional upon the success of the two other offers.

Visible Gold Mines has requested a hearing before the Qu�bec Bureau de d�cision et de r�vision to consider its application, and will update its shareholders on a timely basis with respect to developments.

Visible Gold Mines recommends that shareholders defer taking any action in respect of the unsolicited offer by Zara Resources until shareholders have received further communication from the Board of Directors of Visible Gold Mines.  As the offer by Zara Resources is open for acceptance until October 28, 2013, there is no need for Visible Gold Mines shareholders to take any steps in respect of the offer by Zara Resources at this time.

MINES D'OR VISIBLE DEMANDE UNE ORDONNANCE D'INTERDICTION D'OP�RATIONS EN R�PONSE � L'OFFRE NON SOLLICIT�E DE ZARA RESOURCES

-       Mines d'Or Visible d�pose une demande aupr�s du Bureau de d�cision et de r�vision du Qu�bec

-       Rel�ve des irr�gularit�s importantes dans l'offre de Zara Resources

Rouyn-Noranda (Qu�bec) Canada - Le 6 septembre 2013 - Mines d'Or Visible inc. (TSX-V : VGD) (Francfort : 3V4) a d�pos� une demande aupr�s du Bureau de d�cision et de r�vision du Qu�bec visant � obtenir une ordonnance d'interdiction d'op�rations ainsi que d'autres sanctions en r�ponse � l'offre non sollicit�e pr�sent�e par Zara Resources Inc. (CNSX : ZIR) visant l'achat de la totalit� des actions en circulation de Mines d'Or Visible en �change d'actions de Zara Resources. Si une ordonnance d'interdiction d'op�rations est d�livr�e par le Bureau de d�cision et de r�vision du Qu�bec, Zara Resources n'aurait pas droit d'�mettre des actions en faveur des actionnaires de Mines d'Or Visible au Qu�bec en contrepartie des actions de ces derniers.

La demande pr�sent�e par Mines d'Or Visible se fonde sur des irr�gularit�s et des d�ficiences importantes dans l'offre non sollicit�e de Zara Resources. Tout particuli�rement, Mines d'Or Visible a constat� l'absence d'une version fran�aise de la note d'information de Zara Resources, ce qui viole une r�gle fondamentale du droit des valeurs mobili�res au Qu�bec et rend l'offre ill�gale. Mines d'Or Visible a �galement constat� la vente par M. Danny Wettreich, chef de la direction et actionnaire principal de Zara Resources, de pr�s de deux millions d'actions de Mines d'Or Visible le 19 ao�t 2013, date � laquelle Zara Resources a annonc� pour la premi�re fois son offre. Mines d'Or Visible consid�re que la vente est en contravention directe des lois en valeurs mobili�res applicables.

La demande de Mines d'Or Visible invoque �galement le fait que Zara Resources omet de divulguer ad�quatement dans sa note d'information que son offre d'acqu�rir la totalit� des actions en circulation de Mines d'Or Visible est ind�pendante des offres simultan�es pr�sent�es par Zara Resources visant � acqu�rir la totalit� des actions de deux soci�t�s d'exploration mini�re non-reli�es, et que son offre n'est pas conditionnelle � la r�ussite des deux autres offres.

Mines d'Or Visible a demand� que soit tenue une audience devant le Bureau de d�cision et de r�vision du Qu�bec afin d'examiner sa demande, et tiendra ses actionnaires au courant en temps utile de l'�volution du dossier.

Mines d'Or Visible recommande que les actionnaires attendent avant de poser quelque acte en r�ponse � l'offre non sollicit�e de Zara Resources jusqu'� ce que les actionnaires aient re�u d'autres communications de la part du Conseil d'administration de Mines d'Or Visible. Puisque l'offre de Zara Resources peut �tre accept�e jusqu'au 28 octobre 2013, les actionnaires de Mines d'Or Visible n'ont pas besoin de prendre de mesures relativement � l'offre de Zara Resources � l'heure actuelle.

 

� propos de Mines d'Or Visible

La Bourse de croissance TSX et son fournisseur de services de r�glementation (au sens attribu� � ce terme dans les politiques de la Bourse de croissance TSX) n'assument aucune responsabilit� quant � la pertinence ou � l'exactitude du pr�sent communiqu�.
