(TSX VENTURE:BBI) Blackbird Energy Inc. ("Blackbird" or the "Company") is
pleased to announce that it has closed its previously announced private
placement for gross proceeds of $3,087,361 ("Private Placement").


The Private Placement was comprised of a unit portion at $0.09 per unit (each, a
"Unit") and a Canadian Exploration Expense ("CEE") flow-through share component
at $0.10 per flow-through share (each, a "Flow-Through Share").


A total of 26,148,463 Units and 7,340,000 Flow-Through Shares were issued
pursuant to the Private Placement. Each Unit consists of one common share (each,
a "Common Share") and one Common Share purchase warrant (each, a "Warrant")
which is exercisable to acquire one additional Common Share at a price of $0.15
until November 7, 2018. The Warrants are subject to an early acceleration
provision which provides for the mandatory exercise or expiry of the Warrants in
the event the Company's shares close at $0.30 or higher for at least 10
consecutive trading days. In such event, the Warrants will accelerate and expire
30 days after the Company has given notice of the acceleration to the Warrant
holders.


Garth Braun, President and CEO of Blackbird stated, "We are extremely pleased
with the closing and the demand we encountered for this private placement. With
this financing behind us, we are in a strong position to proceed with additional
exploration work on our properties, and in particular with the drilling of four
wells at our Mantario and Bromhead projects."


In connection with the Private Placement the Company paid finder's fee to
various arm's length finders consisting of a cash portion in the aggregate
amount of $184,102 and 1,970,021 finder's warrants. Each finder's warrant is
exercisable at a price of $0.15 until November 7, 2015.


The Private Placement remains subject to receipt of the TSX Venture Exchange's
final acceptance.


In accordance with applicable securities laws, all of the securities issued
pursuant to the Private Placement, including all finder's warrants, are subject
to a minimum four month hold period, expiring on March 8, 2014.


Blackbird today also announced that it has granted 1,200,000 incentive stock
options to Joshua Mann, the Company's Vice President Business Development. Such
