Gold Wheaton Gold Corp. (TSX VENTURE:GLW) (the "Company") announces that it has closed its previously announced C$100 million equity financing, including the full exercise of the underwriters' over-allotment option, for aggregate gross proceeds to the Company of C$115 million.

The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the offering to pay the balance of the purchase consideration payable by the Company in connection with the First Uranium Corp. gold stream purchase transaction and the remainder, for general working capital purposes.
