TORONTO, ONTARIO--(Marketwired - May 21, 2015) -

Belo Sun Mining Corp. ("Belo Sun" or the "Company") (TSX:BSX) announced today the closing of the C$15,000,000 private placement financing with Agnico Eagle Mines Limited ("Agnico Eagle") previously announced on May 14, 2015. A total of 62,500,000 common shares of Belo Sun were issued and sold today to Agnico Eagle at a price of C$0.24 per share. As a result of the transaction, Agnico Eagle now owns 17.4% of Belo Sun's issued and outstanding common shares on a non-diluted basis.

The common shares issued to Agnico Eagle pursuant to the private placement are subject to a mandatory four-month hold period. Additionally, subject to certain conditions, Agnico Eagle has the right to participate in certain future equity offerings by the Company in order to maintain its pro rata investment in the Company and to nominate one person to the board of directors of the Company provided that Agnico Eagle at the time continues to hold no less than ten percent of the then issued and outstanding common shares of Belo Sun on a non-diluted basis. In the event the Company's board is increased to ten or more directors, Agnico Eagle will have the right to appoint one additional director.
