TSXV: CAA

VANCOUVER, Oct. 24, 2013 /CNW/ - Callinan Royalties Corporation ("Callinan", the "Company") (TSXV: CAA) announces that it has signed an Exploration Alliance Agreement (the "Agreement") with Renaissance Gold Inc. ("RenGold") (TSX: REN).  The purpose of the Agreement is to fund prospect generation activities in order for RenGold to attract joint venture partners to projects, while allowing Callinan to generate and acquire royalties.

The initial geographic focus will be southern Nevada but may expand to other jurisdictions. The Agreement will be for an initial three year term and calls for Callinan to fund $150,000 of generative exploration during the first year of the Agreement with the option to fund up to $100,000 in each of the two subsequent years.

In return for such funding, RenGold will grant Callinan the option to receive a 0.5% Net Smelter Returns ("NSR") royalty on any new projects acquired as a result of the generative exploration work. Alternatively, Callinan has the option of funding an additional $150,000 on any of the new projects in exchange for a 1.5% NSR royalty.

If RenGold proposes that additional value can be generated after spending $150,000, Callinan may elect to contribute subsequent funding with RenGold on an equally shared basis with no change to Callinan's royalty interest. RenGold may also propose exploration on RenGold's existing mineral properties.  Callinan will have the option to fund $150,000 in exploration on those projects in return for a 1.5% NSR royalty.

Callinan is supporting the prospect generation business model as a means to create royalties in prospective areas through agreements with companies such as Renaissance that are established prospect generators and have demonstrated expertise in their chosen jurisdictions.

On Behalf of the Board of Directors,

Roland Butler
