BM BC Moly Ltd

BacTech Mining Corporation ("BacTech" or the "Company") (TSX VENTURE:BM) today
announced the closing of its Subscription Receipt financing transaction.


Pursuant to the financing, BacTech issued 850 Subscription Receipts at a price
of $1,000 each, raising gross proceeds of $850,000. Upon completion of the
planned corporate reorganization (the "Reorganization"), as previously reported
on January 12, 2010, the Subscription Receipts will be automatically exchanged
for that number of BacTech Gold Corporation ("BGC") shares that represent 25.5%
of the outstanding BGC Shares immediately after the transaction (which number is
expected to be approximately 10.25 million BGC Shares), together with 8.5
million warrants of BGC (the "BGC Warrants"). Each BGC Warrant will be
exercisable for one BGC Share at a price of $0.10 per share for 18 months.
BacTech will also pay to the holders of the Subscription Receipts interest at
the rate of 10% per annum for the period from the date of closing of the
Subscription Receipt financing to the effective date of the Reorganization. In
the event the Reorganization is not completed within six months, BacTech will be
obligated to repay the subscription price for the Subscription Receipts,
together with interest at the rate of 10% per annum, and issue to the holders an
aggregate of 6,800,000 BacTech warrants exercisable at $0.10 per share for 18
months.


Insiders of BacTech subscribed for $20,000 of the financing. The Subscription
Receipts and the underlying securities are subject to a hold period that is four
months and a day after the later of (i) March 4, 2010, and (ii) the date BacTech
Gold Corporation becomes a reporting issuer in any province or territory.


In connection with the Subscription Receipt financing, and subject to approval
by the Exchange, a finder's fee of $6,250 will be paid to an arm's length party.


Proceeds of the financing will be used to fund ongoing test work underway on
various projects such as the Lichkvaz-Tey gold deposit in Armenia and a project
under evaluation in Guatemala, together with the costs associated with the
Reorganization.
