SASKATOON, Sept. 23 /CNW/ - George Sanders, President of Wescan Goldfields Inc. ("Wescan") is pleased to announce that the previously announced non-brokered private placement dated September 21, 2005 has been expanded from 5,800,000 Units to 6,500,000 Units of Wescan at $0.35 per Unit and also expanded the non brokered private placement of flow-through shares from 4,600,000 flow through shares to 5,000,000 flow through shares priced at $0.43 per share. Each Unit is comprised of one common share of Wescan and one half of a common share purchase warrant.

In the event the offering is fully subscribed, the Unit offering will generate gross proceeds of $2,275,000 and the flow through shares will generate gross proceeds of $2,150,000 for total gross proceeds of $4,425,000. Wescan is not accepting any further subscriptions related to this private placement.
The securities offered hereby will be subject to a four-month hold period from the closing date in accordance with applicable securities laws.
Proceeds will be applied to further drilling on Wescan's 100% owned Fork Lake property which includes the former producing Jasper Gold Mine; for geophysical surveys of the Company's 50% owned uranium prospecting permits in the Athabasca Basin and for general working capital purposes.
Wescan will pay a 6% cash fee and 6% warrant of the gross proceeds raised by a finder related to this private placement. The placement is subject to final approval of the TSX Venture Exchange.
Wescan is a Canadian based corporation engaged in the acquisition, exploration and development of mineral properties. Shares of the Company trade on the TSX Venture Exchange under the trading symbol "WGF".
