LAS VEGAS, NV -- (Marketwired) -- 01/22/16

Canyon Gold Corp. (OTCQB: CGCC) (The Company) announces the completion and closing of the acquisition of 'DEFENSE TECHNOLOGY CORPORATION (DTC) as a wholly owned subsidiary of CanyonGold as announced in its 8-K filing on January 8, 2016. CanyonGold through DEFENSE TECHNOLOGY CORPORATION (DTC) plans to start production of the "OFFENDER ALERT PASSIVE SCAN"™ during the first quarter of 2016.

The DTC proprietary Offender Alert Passive Scan is a portable scanning security device that uses the Earth's magnetic fields to detect potential security threats. The Offender Alert Passive Scan is the only product of its kind that uses passive scanning.

Traditional detectors use X-ray (radiation) imaging -- the same type of technology that can have harmful effects after prolonged exposure; the Offender Alert Passive Scan eliminates any hazardous and non-hazardous-emittent exposure to students.

When students or others step through the Offender Alert Passive Scan, sensors embedded within the aluminum frame alert security personnel to the level of threat with color-coded LED lights and an audible alert signal. The Offender Alert Passive Scan also can link with a computer to give an instant view, using numbers or colors, of the threat area, which can then be transmitted to a handheld or other command device for ease of use, threat tracking, response deployment, and neutralizing.

DTC's Proprietary Offender Alert Passive Scanis a 'next generation' walk-through detector scanning unit.
The DTC scan-system emits no harmful radiation through the subject and is passive.

FUTURE PLAN:
With commencement of production and marketing of the proprietary 'Passive Scanner Unit' by DTC, the Company will 'spin-off' its gold resources holding and exploration subsidiary 'LCGRC' and will register the gold subsidiary with the SEC through an S-1 Registration filing and thereby create a second public company trading its common stock on the OTCQB. The company believes this will enhance value for shareholders of CGCC stock prior to the completion of the spin-off through distribution of stock from the newly created OTCQB Company to all CGCC shareholders.

Long Canyon Gold Resources Corp.('LCGRC') owns 30 mineral lease claims and has the opportunity to acquire additional claims in the mineral-rich Spruce Ridge area as well as in the similarly mineralized Pequop Mountains of the Long Canyon Trend Area of Nevada. These sections are adjacent to the original discovery acquire by Newmont Mining for 2.3 billion dollars and also the site of the planned first open pit mine in the area.

LCGRC continues to seek funding for its phase two development programs on its substantial gold claims in Elko County Nevada. As gold market valuations improve in the future the Company will proceed with its planned deposit exploration.
