FISSION URANIUM CORP. (“Fission” or “the Company“) reminds shareholders to support Fission’s director nominees by voting their BLUE proxy before Friday, December 11, 2015 at 11:00 AM (Vancouver time) / 2:00 PM (Toronto time) and announces the support of Rick Rule of Sprott U.S. Holdings, Inc.
“Management has delivered two Athabasca Basin discoveries. The dissident’s uranium exploration track record is, to our knowledge, unblemished by success. Management owns several million shares in their personal accounts and our preference is to support shareholding partners, rather than potential managers who don’t own a stake,” said Rick Rule of Sprott U.S. Holdings, Inc.
Mr. Rule’s announcement of support follows important endorsements from leading independent proxy advisory firms, Institutional Shareholder Services Inc. (“ISS”) and Glass, Lewis & Co., LLC (“Glass Lewis”), recommending shareholders vote FOR all resolutions including the board’s proposed nominees.
Attention Fission shareholders:
Be sure to vote your BLUE proxy before Friday, December 11, 2015 at 11:00 AM (Vancouver time) / 2:00 PM (Toronto time).

Forward-Looking Statements
This press release to shareholders contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of applicable Canadian securities legislation (forward-looking information and forward-looking statements being collectively herein after referred to as “forward- looking statements”) that are based on expectations, estimates and projections as at the date of this letter. These forward-looking statements include but are not limited to: statements relating to strategies designed to accelerate shareholder value; continued development of the PLS and its Triple R Deposit; future financial or operating performance of Fission; anticipated developments in operations; and success of exploration activities. These forward-looking statements are based on the beliefs of Fission’s management, as well as on assumptions which such management believes to be reasonable based on information currently available at the time such statements were made. Such assumptions include, but are not limited to, assumptions about: general business and economic conditions; the supply and demand, and the level and volatility of, the price of uranium; changes in credit markets and conditions in financial markets generally; the Company’s ability to attract and retain skilled staff; and market competition. We caution you that the foregoing list of important factors and assumptions is not exhaustive. There can be no assurance that the forward-looking statements will prove to be accurate. By their nature, forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause the actual results, performance or achievements of Fission to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements, including, without limitation: risks related to Fission’s limited business history; that Fission has no history of mineral production or mining operations; discrepancies between actual and estimated mineral resources; risks caused by factors beyond Fission’s control, such as uranium market price volatility, recovery rates of minerals from mined ore and demand for nuclear power; risks related to competition in the mineral industry; risk related to uranium industry competition and international trade restrictions; the potential deregulation of the electrical utility industry; competition of nuclear power with other energy sources; risks related to Fission’s title to the PLS Property; risks related to dependence on key personnel; and risks of not meeting exploration budget forecasts. Although Fission has attempted to identify important factors that could cause actual actions, events or results to differ materially from those described in forward-looking statements, there may be other factors that cause actions, events or results not to be as anticipated, estimated or intended. There can be no assurance that forward-looking statements will prove to be accurate, as actual results and future events could differ materially from those anticipated in such statements. Accordingly, readers should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are made as of the date of this letter and, other than as required by applicable securities laws, Fission assumes no obligation to update or revise them to reflect new events or circumstances.
