VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwire - Jan. 6, 2009) - Canasia Industries Corporation (TSX VENTURE: CAJ.V)(OTCBB: CANSF.OB)(FRANKFURT:45C) ("Canasia") has received approval from the Saskatchewan Ministry of Energy and Resources on coal permits covering 1,314 hectares. These permits are in close proximity to a recent coal discovery made by Goldsource Mines Inc. Canasia has received partial applications to date from the Saskatchewan Government covering 52,834 hectares (approximately 130,500 acres) to date. Once a response has been received on all outstanding applications, the board will establish a work plan for the coal prospects received.
Graeme Sewell, a director of Canasia stated, "Management is looking forward to developing a plan to initiate a work program encompassing the coal permits once all of them have been received. There are multiple companies, including Goldsource, that are scheduled to begin their winter drill programs near our property shortly. Therefore management is optimistic about the renewed market sentiment for this area going forward. In addition to the Saskatchewan coal prospects, our primary project at Reed Lake in Manitoba is anticipated to commence operations in the coming weeks."
