Claude Closes Purchase of Royalty Interest

SASKATOON, July 2 /CNW/ - Claude Resources Inc. is pleased to announce
that it has completed and closed the purchase of a 1.35% net smelter royalty
(and related interests) from Metal Royalties Corporation. The royalty interest
is in respect of production from the property owned by Madsen Gold Corp. which
is located in the Red Lake District of northwestern Ontario and which includes
the Madsen gold mine. Madsen Gold Corp. is a wholly-owned subsidiary of
Claude. The purchase price paid by Claude was Cdn. $1,100,025 and has been
satisfied by the issuance to Metal Royalties Corporation of 628,586 special
warrants of Claude, each convertible (for no additional consideration upon
exercise) into one common share of Claude.
Claude President, Neil McMillan stated ''The Royalty purchase is a
reflection of Claude's confidence in the potential size and long-term
viability of our Madsen mine and related properties in the Red Lake mining
camp in northwestern Ontario.''
Gerald McCarvill, Chairman of Metal Royalties Corporation said, ''Metal
Royalties is pleased to be a major shareholder in such a vibrant and growing
Canadian resource corporation.''
Claude Resources purchased Madsen Gold Corp. and related properties in
April of 1998 and has been carrying out an extensive exploration and
development program on the property since. The Madsen mine produced in excess
of 2,600,000 ounces of gold between 1938 and 1976.
