 Vancouver, British Columbia - Jilin Jien Nickel Industry Co., Ltd. ("Jilin Jien"), Goldbrook Ventures Inc. ("Goldbrook"), Jien Canada Mining Ltd. ("Jien Canada") and Jien International Investment Ltd. announced today that a total of 69,066,054 common shares (the "Shares") (approximately 67.68% of the outstanding Shares) and $82,837,000 principal amount of the 7% Convertible Senior Unsecured Debentures due March 31, 2015 (the "Debentures") (approximately 60.25% of the outstanding principal amount of Debentures) were validly tendered to the offers to Canadian Royalties securityholders (the "Offers"), or are already owned by Jien Canada and its affiliates, as of October 27, 2009. As dis closed in the Offer Documents, Jien Canada, together with persons acting jointly or in concert with Jien Canada, own 10,046,100 Shares and no Debentures. Mr. Glenn Mullan, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Canadian Royalties has met with representatives of Jien Canada and discussed integration plans and the continuity of community initiatives in Val-d'Or and the Nunavik Region and in relation to the Inuit community. Mr. Mullan is satisfied that Jien Canada will continue development of the Nunavik Nickel Project respecting existing initiatives and agreements. Mr. Mullan, in consequence, has agreed to tender his 4,871,980 Shares of Canadian Royalties (approximately 4.77% of the outstanding Shares) to the Offers. 

"We are pleased to report that the majority of Canadian Royalties shareholders and debentureholders have already tendered their Shares and Debentures to our all-cash Offers, though the minimum tender conditions were not satisfied," said Mr. Wu Shu, Chief Executive Officer of Jien Canada. "Based on the level of tenders received, we have decided to extend the Offers a final time and to confirm that these are our final Offers. The remaining shareholders and debentureholders wishing to tender their Shares and Debentures should do so should they want this transaction to conclude." 

Jien Canada has extended the Offers to 5:00 p.m. (Toronto time) on November 10, 2009. The Offers are Jien Canada's best and final prices for the Shares and Debentures and the extension of the expiry time is the final extension. A notice of variation (the "Notice of Variation") in respect of the extension will be mailed today to shareholders and debentureholders and will be filed with applicable securities authorities in Canada and will be available on http://www.sedar.com/.

 

Details of the Offers 

Full details of the Offers are contained in the Offer Documents, the first notice of variation and the second notice of variation filed with securities regulatory authorities and will be contained in the Notice of Variation. The Offer Documents were mailed to each holder of shares ("Shareholder") and each holder of Debentures ("Debentureholders") on August 21, 2009, the first notice of variation was mailed to Shareholders and Debentureholders on September 16, 2009 and the second notice of variation was mailed to Shareholders and Debentureholders on October 16, 2009. The Offers are subject to customary conditions, including: that a minimum of 66?% of the outstanding Shares on a fully diluted basis and 66?% of the outstanding aggregate principal amount of Debentures are tendered to the Offers, the absence of any material adverse change in Canadian Royalties, the absence of certain prohibited activities on the part of Canadian Royalties (including share issuances, material debt issuances, acquisitions and dispositions) between August 6, 2009 and the expiry of the Offers, and no untrue statements or omissions in Canadian Royalties' public disclosure. Jien Canada intends to take all necessary steps to acquire any Shares or Debentures that remain outstanding following the meeting of customary conditions and the expiry of the Offers.  

Important Instructions to Securityholders Wishing to Tender their Shares or Debentures 

Shareholders may accept the Share Offer by depositing the following documents with the Depositary at any of the offices specified in the Letter of Acceptance and Transmittal before the Expiry Time: 

(a)                the certificate or certificates representing the Shares in respect of which the Share Offer is being accepted;

(b)                a properly completed and duly signed copy of the Letter of Acceptance and Transmittal (or a manually signed facsimile copy), with the signature or signatures guaranteed in accordance with the instructions set out in the Letter of Acceptance and Transmittal; and

(c)                any other relevant document required by the instructions set forth in the Letter of Acceptance and Transmittal. 

The Debentures were issued by Canadian Royalties in a "book-entry only" system and all of the Debentures are currently registered in the name of and held by or on behalf of CDS & Co. Beneficial interests in the Debentures, constituting ownership of the Debentures, are represented through book-entry accounts of institutions acting on behalf of beneficial owners as direct and indirect CDS participants, rather than by definitive certificates. In order to tender Debentures, you must direct your investment dealer, stockbroker, bank, trust company or other nominee to accept the Debenture Offer in the manner required by your nominee. 

Investors may obtain a free copy of the Offer Documents filed by Jien Canada with Canadian securities regulators at http://www.sedar.com/. In addition, you may request these documents free of charge from Jien Canada's information agent, Kingsdale Shareholder Services Inc., toll free at 1-888-581-1024.  

PI Financial Corp. is acting as financial advisor to Jien Canada with respect to the Offers. Blake, Cassels & Graydon LLP is acting as legal counsel to Goldbrook and Jien Canada and Gowling Lafleur Henderson LLP is acting as legal counsel to Jilin Jien.

This press release does not constitute an offer to buy or sell, or the solicitation of an offer to buy or sell, any of the securities of Canadian Royalties. Such an offer can only be made pursuant to an offer to purchase and accompanying offering circular filed with the securities regulatory authorities in Canada.

About Goldbrook 

Goldbrook Ventures is engaged in the exploration for Nickel-Copper-Platinum Group Element sulphide deposits - a class of mineral deposit that, due to its poly-metallic nature, has the advantage of protection against individual metal price cycles and has strong long term supply-demand fundamentals. Goldbrook's quest for discovery is focused in the Raglan District of Northern Quebec, a district that hosts Xstrata's Raglan operations, arguably one of the world's most profitable nickel-copper-PGE mines. Goldbrook is the District's single largest holder of mineral rights, with a 100% interest in 891,000 acres. 

About Jilin Jien 

Jilin Jien Nickel Industry Co., Ltd. is a corporation existing under the laws of China.  The head office of Jilin Jien is located at Panshi City, Jilin Province, China.  

Jilin Jien is one of China's largest producers of nickel, copper and cobalt sulphates, as well as other nickel products including nickel matte, electrolytic nickel, nickel hydroxide and nickel chloride. With profitable operations spanning exploration, mining, smelting, refining, chemicals and research, Jilin Jien has total assets of RMB3.2 billion, nearly 10,000 employees and its facilities occupy 4.5 million square meters.   

Jilin Jien is a publicly-traded company owned and controlled by shareholders. Jilin Jien was the first company in China's nickel industry to list on the A-share market of the Shanghai Stock Exchange under stock code 600432. Jilin Jien is one of the companies comprising the SSE180 index and the CSI300 index. Jilin Jien has a majority shareholder - Jilin Horoc Nonferrous Metal Group, Co Ltd., who owns approximately 57%. Indirectly, the government of China owns less than 20% (indirect interest) of Jilin Jien, as the government has a partial ownership in Jilin Horoc Nonferrous Metal Group. The management and the board of Jilin Jien make all decisions pertaining to their business.
