Toronto, Ontario. December 13, 2011: St. Eugene Mining Corporation Limited (SEM:TSXV) ("St. Eugene" or the ?Company?) announces that it has received an interim order of the Supreme Court of British Columbia with respect to its previously announced plan of arrangement, pursuant to which Claude Resources Inc. (?Claude?) will acquire all of the issued and outstanding common shares of St. Eugene (the ?Arrangement?). 

On October 25, 2011, St. Eugene announced the Arrangement, whereby each shareholder of St. Eugene will receive 0.0789 of a common share of Claude and 0.25 common shares of a newly formed company, Satori Resources Inc. (?Satori?), in respect of each St. Eugene share held.  St. Eugene will transfer to Satori its interest in the Tartan Lake Gold Mine Project and approximately $800,000 in cash.  Assuming St. Eugene shareholders approve the Arrangement, Satori will seek approval to list its common shares for trading on the TSX Venture Exchange.

Holders of purchase warrants of St. Eugene that are outstanding at and subsequent to the completion of the Arrangement will be entitled to receive (on otherwise the same terms) the number of common shares of Claude and common shares of Satori that such holder of warrants would have acquired if such holder had exercised the warrants of St. Eugene immediately prior to the completion of the Arrangement.

As part of the interim order, St. Eugene was granted an extension of time in which to hold its annual meeting of shareholders from December 31, 2011 to January 31, 2012.  The annual general and special meeting of shareholders will be held on Tuesday, January 17, 2012 at 4:00 p.m. Toronto Time at the Toronto Board of Trade, where shareholders will be asked to approve, among other items of business, the Arrangement.
