Highbank Arranging a $900,000 Working Capital Financing & LNG Pipeline Update

Vancouver, B.C. – May 15, 2015 – Highbank Resources Ltd. (the “Company”), TSX Venture: HBK.

Financing:
Highbank Resources Ltd. (“Highbank”) is arranging a $900,000 financing. As a result of additional expenditures incurred during pre-production; commissioning of the production equipment; further site and roadway upgrades; changes required to the aggregate wash plant in order to maximize output; and costs incurred in the preparation of the Preliminary Economic Assessment (“PEA”); Highbank requires additional financing before product sales and cash inflows.

The Company has arranged a $250,000 bridge loan, without interest, to be repaid when the $900,000 financing is approved. The financing will not result in any further dilution of the share capital, no share loan bonuses will be issued, and is expected to be repaid from production sales. General terms are repayment of $1.00 per ton from sales until the $900,000 financing is repaid and $0.50 per ton interest royalty for the life of operations.

$675,000 is being arranged from a non-related third party and $225,000 from Melsar Management Inc. (a company controlled by William Loucks, Director).

The financing is subject to TSX Venture Exchange approval.
