UC Resources Announces Red Lake LOIs and Record Date for Share Consolidation

UC Resources Ltd. (the "Company") (TSX VENTURE:UC) announces that it proposes to
consolidate its common share capital on the basis of ten pre-consolidation
common shares held for one new post-consolidation common share (10:1) (the
"Proposed Consolidation"). The board of directors of the Company approved the
Proposed Consolidation on April 11, 2014 and, in accordance with TSX-V policies
and s. 9.1 of the Company's articles, shareholder approval will not be required.



Management believes the Proposed Consolidation will provide the Company with
greater flexibility in its ability to finance the Company and advance its
projects. The Company currently has an aggregate of 192,497,175 common shares
issued and outstanding. It is anticipated that upon completion of the Proposed
Consolidation, there will be approximately 19,249,718 common shares issued and
outstanding.


The Company currently has 14,550,000 outstanding stock options which will be
cancelled post consolidation. 


The Company has no outstanding warrants.

The Proposed Consolidation is subject to TSX Venture Exchange approval. The
effective date of the Proposed Consolidation will be disclosed in a subsequent
news release.


In conjunction with the Proposed Consolidation, the Company has entered into a
Letter of Intent to acquire Crown Gold Corporation's ("Crown") 100% interest in
the mining claims that comprise the Red Lake Project ("Red Lake"). The Company
has also entered into a letter of intent to acquire Frontline Gold's 100%
undivided working interest in the Red Lake gold claims. The Company is currently
negotiating on two additional properties of interest and expects further
announcements shortly.

Proposed Terms of the Transaction - McKenzie Island Red Lake Property

UC has the exclusive right to negotiate to acquire Frontline's 100% undivided
working interest in the Red Lake gold claims (the "Properties"). 




a)   Upon execution of the LOI, UC shall issue to Frontline 100,000 shares  
     of UC as a good faith non-refundable deposit and in consideration for  
     which UC shall have exclusive negotiating rights in respect of the     
     Properties. UC Resources will have 45 days to perform its due          
     diligence. Should a definitive agreement be reached with UC the        
     following principal terms of the LOI will apply:                       
                                                                            
b)   Upon execution of definitive agreement and on the approval of the      
     Toronto Stock Exchange (the "TSX-V"), within 45 days, UC shall issue to
     Frontline 600,000 shares of UC and CDN$15,000.00 cash; and             
                                                                            
(c)  UC shall pay to the Frontline a royalty in an amount equal to one point
     five percent (1.5%) of the net smelter return ("NSR") derived from     
     operations on Red Lake. Frontline will grant to UC the exclusive option
     (the "Buy-Out") to purchase 1 percent of the NSR for one million       
     ($1,000,000) dollars.                                                  



The proposed transaction is subject to a number of conditions, including but not
limited to, applicable regulatory approval, and the execution of a definitive
agreement. Frontline's Properties, located in the Red Lake Gold Camp, consists
of 5 properties consisting of 13 claims totaling approximately 6,000 ha. The
geological environment is comparable to many prolific projects, such as
Goldcorp's Red Lake Mine.


After a decade of history in the Red Lake camp, we are pleased that UC Resources
Director, Mr. John Archibald, P.Geo., has agreed to be the "Qualified Person" on
our exploration programs in the Red Lake area. Mr. Archibald is a very well
known and recognized Geologist in the Red Lake area. "It is good to be back in
the Red Lake area," commented Archibald. "The area is known for its high
potential in exploration and very high grade area for gold, it's good to be back
in Elephant Country," he stated.


The Town of Red Lake, according to Wikipedia sources, experienced a sudden surge
of economic, industrial, and population growth with the discovery of gold in
1926. By 1936, Red Lake's Howey Bay was the busiest airport in the world, with
more flights landing and taking off per hour than any other. Since the mid-1960s
The Red Lake District has yielded over 30-million ounces of gold worth over USD
$20 billion at today's prices and is home to Goldcorp's Red Lake Mine, one of
the richest and lowest cost producing mines in the world. The Red Lake Mine
produces approximately 600,000 ounces worth USD $405 million annually, with over
11 million ounces (USD $7 billion) gold to date. 


"UC Resources with our consolidation and proposed acquisitions, moving to
definitive agreement and acceptance by the TSX Venture could result in UC
controlling a considerable land package within one of Canada's most prolific
gold areas in the country," stated Gary Monaghan, CEO of UC Resources. "Our
recent efforts in Canada and our extended effort to move our XORA claims into
hard rock mining at the Mexican LA Yesca facility remain intact," he continued.


Company Chief Operating Officer Jim Voisin commented, "The La Yesca mill remains
on care and maintenance as we tighten up the hard rock parameters to ensure the
resulting hard rock effort will be profitable. We are also working closely with
our friends at FIFOMI in requesting their financial support once again to bring
both our mill profitability as well as the support of our Mexican Community to
fruition. The possibility of Joint Venture or use of contract miners to fast
pace the hard rock throughput is also being investigated. I would like to thank
FIFOMI, SEMERNAT and SGM for their assistance in moving this project forward,"
he stated. 


UC Resources Ltd. is a junior resources exploration company with a focus on
silver and gold exploration and production in Canada and Mexico.


On behalf of the Board of Directors,

Gary Monaghan, Chief Executive Officer
