Canada Fluorspar Inc. (TSX VENTURE: CFI) (the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has closed the previously announced financing of 11,000,000 common share special warrants ("Special Warrants") at a price of $0.50 per Special Warrant for aggregate gross proceeds of $5,500,000 (the "Offering").

"As a result of this financing CFI is now adequately funded to complete our current development and operating objectives," commented Lindsay Gorrill, President and CEO of Canada Fluorspar Inc. "With these funds in place, a debt free balance sheet and a substantially broadened shareholder base, CFI is well positioned to engage strategic partners in meaningful discussions with respect to the development of our world class fluorspar deposit at St. Lawrence, NL. It is important to note that we continue to be pleased with trends in the Fluorspar markets as we are witnessing pricing being impacted by a number of favourable trends around the world."

Mr. Gorrill also added that, "these funds combined with the recent additions to our management team and the support of our board of directors provide CFI with a solid platform from which we can make the important decisions related to the reactivation of our fluorspar mine and mill, and financing of the project."

The Offering was completed by a syndicate of investment dealers led by Dundee Securities Corporation, and including GMP Securities L.P., Jennings Capital Inc. and Paradigm Capital Inc. (the "Agents"). In consideration for their services the Agents received a cash commission equal to 5% of the gross proceeds of the Offering. In addition, the Corporation issued 550,000 broker warrants (being an amount equal to 5% of the number of Special Warrants sold under the Offering) to the Agents. Each broker warrant entitles the holder thereof to acquire one common share ("Common Share") of the Company at a price of $0.60 until December 16, 2011.

Each Special Warrant will entitle the holder thereof to receive one Common Share and one half of one common share purchase warrant ("Warrant") on the exercise or deemed exercise of the Special Warrant, as applicable, subject to adjustment in certain events. The Special Warrants will be exercisable by the holder at any time after the closing for no additional consideration and all unexercised Special Warrants will be deemed to be exercised on the earlier of (a) four months and a day following the closing, and (b) the 5th business day after a receipt is issued for a final prospectus by the securities regulatory authorities in each of the provinces of Canada where the Special Warrants are sold qualifying the Common Shares and Warrants to be issued upon the exercise of the Special Warrants, as applicable. The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to obtain such receipt for a final prospectus qualifying the distribution of the Common Shares and Warrants issuable upon the exercise of the Special Warrants by February 14, 2011. If the principal securities regulator has not issued a receipt for the prospectus within 60 days of the date of closing of the Offering, the holder of each Special Warrant shall be entitled to receive 1.1 Common Shares and 0.55 Warrants in lieu of 1 Common Share and 0.5 Warrants upon exercise of the Special Warrant. Until the receipt is issued for such prospectus, the Special Warrants as well as the Common Shares and Warrants issuable upon exercise thereof will be subject to a four month hold period under applicable Canadian securities laws.

Each whole Warrant is exercisable into one Common Share at a price of $0.75 per Common Share for a period of 18 months from the date of issuance of the Warrants.

The net proceeds from the Offering will be used to develop the Company's fluorspar deposits located in St. Lawrence, Newfoundland and for general working capital purposes.
