Canasia Commences Mexico Operations

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwire – Jan. 20, 2010) - Canasia Industries Corporation (TSX VENTURE:CAJ) (OTCBB:CANSF) (FRANKFURT:45C) ("Canasia") wishes to announce that the geologists overseeing the recently announced Mexico gold prospect are now on the property. This phase of the exploration program consists of geological sampling and mapping on Canasia's 100% owned Buena Vista, Las Joyas, and Santo Nino Properties, located in central Mexico.

Graeme Sewell, a director of Canasia, stated: "Management is pleased to now be underway on this phase of work on the newly acquired, high priority Mexican Gold Prospect. This now gives Canasia multiple programs underway. Also, we are anticipating results back shortly from the bulk sample on the Clone Prospect, which returned grades as high as 44.75 g/t Au over 12.80 metres (announced October 22, 2009). This is clearly a time of increased corporate activity for Canasia."

Work conducted in 2007 on the Buena Vista Property by the previous operator described Tertiary volcanic rocks of acid to intermediate composition with strong hydrothermal alteration observed in many areas; which include areas of vuggy silica and opaline quartz and advanced argillic alteration. Quartz veins with fine disseminated pyrite and iron oxides such as hematite and limonite have been observed. Some outcrops exhibit zones of crackle type brecciation close to the vein structures. This geological environment has potential to host precious metal high sulphidation epithermal systems similar to the Yanacocha Mine, Pierina (Perú), and El Indio (Chile).

The Las Joyas Property is located in the historic mining districts of El Oro and Tlalpujahua. This gold belt is characterized by gold-silver quartz veins and disseminated mineralization. The property is comprised of 31,601.52 hectares and the central area of the property contains small active gold mining claims.

The Santo Nino Property hosts a large area of hydrothermal alteration as well as several small past producing mines. Access to the properties is via paved highway from either Mexico City or Guadalajara and all of the properties are well served by existing infrastructure.
