MONTREAL, Feb. 5, 2014 - Freyja Resources Inc. (TSX VENTURE:FRA) ("Freyja" or the "Corporation") is pleased to announce that the Corporation has entered into a share exchange arrangement (the "Share Exchange") with Global Resources Investment Ltd. ("GRIT") pursuant to which Freya will acquire 564,366 ordinary shares of GRIT (the "GRIT Shares"), which are expected to be listed on the London Stock Exchange's main market in connection with GRIT's re-registration as a public company which will be constituted as a UK Investment Trust with the name "Global Resources Investment Trust Plc." in exchange for 6,000,000 common shares of Freyja (the "Common Shares").

In addition, Freyja intends to complete a private placement of up 850,000 units (the "Units") at a price of $0.17 per Unit (the "Offering").

Freyja may engage finders or agents to act as agents of Freyja in connection with the Offering, and in connection therewith may pay finders and agents a cash commission of up to 8% of the proceeds of the Offering that result from such parties efforts, subject to compliance with applicable securities laws. The finders and agents may also be granted warrants to purchase up to 8% of the number of Units sold under the Offering, with each warrant entitling the holder to purchase one Unit at a price of $0.17 per Unit for a period of eighteen months from the closing of the Offering.
The net proceeds made available through the sale of the Units will be used by the Corporation to pay for the costs of the Offering, development of the Corporation's Las Cristinas mining project in Mexico and for working capital and general corporate purposes.
Both the Share Exchange and the Offering are subject to the approval of the TSX Venture Exchange. Pursuant to applicable securities laws, all securities issued pursuant to the Offering will be subject to a statutory hold period of four months following the closing of the Offering.
Upon closing of the Share Exchange, the Corporation will issue 480,000 units of the Corporation with the same terms as the Units, as payment of a finder's fee to Jordan Capital Markets Inc. of Vancouver, BC.
