VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA -- (Marketwire - Jan. 8, 2013) - Brixton Metals Corporation (TSX VENTURE:BBB) (the "Company" or "Brixton") is pleased to announce that it has entered into a non-binding letter agreement dated January 7, 2013 to acquire a 100 percent interest in the Thorn property (the "Thorn Property") from Rimfire Minerals Corporation ("Rimfire") (the "Transaction"), a subsidiary of Kiska Metals Corporation ("Kiska"). Brixton has agreed to pay to Kiska $1.5 million in cash and issue 7,000,000 shares in its capital stock to acquire the Thorn Property.

Mr. Gary R. Thompson, Chairman and CEO stated, "This is an exciting and major milestone for Brixton Metals and its shareholders. This transaction cleans up the ownership structure and enables us to secure the upside potential of further discoveries for our shareholders."

Pursuant to an option agreement between Brixton and Rimfire dated June 3, 2010, as amended (the "Option Agreement"), Brixton has been undertaking exploration on the Thorn Property to earn a 51 percent interest by, among other things, incurring exploration expenditures of $5 million. To-date, Brixton has incurred approximately $4.1 million in exploration expenditures on the Thorn Property and was scheduled to vest its 51 percent interest in the Thorn Property by Spring 2013. This Transaction will enable Brixton to acquire full control of the Thorn Property, subject to underlying royalties.


The Transaction and Conditions to Completion

The Transaction will be completed by way of a purchase and sale agreement ("SPA") to be entered into between Brixton, Rimfire and Kiska. The completion of the Transaction will be subject to a number of conditions, including entering into the SPA, completion by Brixton of an equity financing to raise sufficient cash to finance the cash component of the consideration for the Transaction, approval of the SPA by Brixton, Rimfire and Kiska's respective boards and receipt of all required TSX Venture Exchange (the "Exchange") approvals. The Transaction is scheduled to close by February 28, 2013 or such other date as mutually agreed to by parties. There can be no assurance that the Transaction will be completed as proposed or at all.
