Candente Gold Corp. ("Candente Gold") are pleased to provide the terms of the
private placement offering of common shares of Candente Gold (the "Financing")
announced on June 16, 2009.


The Financing will be comprised of units at a price of $0.40 per unit, each unit
consisting of one common share in the capital of Candente Gold ("Share") and
one-half of one share purchase warrant ("Warrant"). Each whole Warrant will be
non-transferable and exercisable for a period of 24 months to purchase one
additional Share at a price of $0.60 per Share. The Financing will be carried
out on a best efforts basis to raise proceeds of up to $10 million with a
minimum target of $5 million.


Agents assisting with the financing will receive a cash commission equal to 6.5%
of the gross proceeds from the sale of the units they each make pursuant to the
Financing, together with broker's warrants to purchase that number of units that
is equal to 6.5% of the aggregate number of units they sell pursuant to the
Financing. Each broker's warrant is exercisable for a period of 24 months to
purchase one additional Share at a price of $0.60 per Share.


All Shares issued pursuant to the Financing will be subject to a four month hold
period.


It is anticipated that insiders will purchase up to a maximum of 10% of the
units issued pursuant to the Financing.


Pursuant to Toronto Stock Exchange Policies the Financing requires the approval
of a simple majority of the Company's shareholders as more particularly
disclosed in the Company's Information Circular dated June 5, 2009. Completion
of the Financing is not expected to create a new insider in Candente Gold or
have a material effect on control of Candente Gold.


The net proceeds of the Financing will be used to fund exploration and
development activities on Candente Gold's precious metals properties in Mexico
and Peru and for general corporate purposes.

CAUTIONARY NOTE TO U.S. INVESTORS

We advise U.S. investors that this news release uses terms which are not
recognized by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"),
including "mineral resources", "measured resources", "indicated resources" and
"inferred resources". The estimation of measured and indicated resources
involves greater uncertainty as to their existence and economic feasibility than
the estimation of proven and probable reserves. U.S. investors are cautioned not
to assume that mineral resources in these categories will be converted to
reserves. The estimation of inferred resources involves far greater uncertainty
as to their existence and economic viability than the estimation of other
categories of resources. U.S. investors are cautioned not to assume that
estimates of inferred mineral resources exist, are economically mineable, or
will be upgraded into measured or indicated mineral resources. U.S. investors
are cautioned not to assume that mineral resources in any of these categories
will be converted into reserves.
