Nevada Clean Magnesium Announces Reason for Trading Halt

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA / TheNewswire / August 22, 2016 - Nevada Clean Magnesium, Inc. (TSXV: NVM; Frankfurt-M1V; OTC Pink Sheets: MLYFF) (The "Company") today announced it had requested that IIROC halt trading in the Company's stock on the TSX Venture Exchange as of the open on August 18, 2016 as a result of an offer of a funding package from a firm originating in London, UK which would have been material to the Company. The terms of the offered funding package appeared on the surface to be acceptable and if accepted, would have materially changed the Company.

Upon receipt of the offer, in addition to halting the stock, the Company instructed its corporate lawyers to commence due diligence on the offeror and the transaction as a whole on a preliminary basis. Based on the information received, the Company came to the conclusion that the offered financing was not likely to be concluded, and our negotiations with the offeror have terminated. The Company continues to explore various avenues of funding its plans, but is exercising caution to ensure that it doesn't announce a transaction that has little or no hope of closing.

Trading in the shares of the Company will resume August 22, 2016.
