GLASS LEWIS RECOMMENDS KLONDEX SHAREHOLDERS VOTE FOR KLONDEX DIRECTOR SLATE



======================================================================= Re: News - Thursday, June 23, 2011 Glass Lewis Recommends Klondex Shareholders Vote for Klondex Director Slate ======================================================================= - Glass Lewis is the 2nd Proxy Advisory Firm to Support the Klondex WHITE Proxy Slate - Vancouver, BC - June 23, 2011 - Klondex Mines Ltd.

(TSX: KDX) announced today that Glass, Lewis & Co., a leading proxy advisory firm, has also recommended that shareholders vote FOR all of managements nominees using the WHITE proxy card and to "Not Vote" for the yellow proxy card dissident slate put forth by The K2 Principal Fund group to seek control of the entire Klondex Board. In its conclusion, Glass Lewis stated that "shareholders are effectively being asked to replace the entire board, an all-or-nothing proposition that, in our view, offers little nuance when determining the structure of the Board going forward.

Considered in the full context of the presented arguments, including the Companys financial performance, we do not believe the Dissidents concerns warrant replacing the board." Supporting its conclusion, Glass Lewis commented that Klondexs share price performance over the three years ended June 10, 2011, the last trading date prior to the Dissidents solicitation, "has significantly outperformed a peer composite, the S&P Global Gold Index and the S&P/TSX Composite Index - Gold." Additionally on a historical price-to-book value multiple in 2009, 2010 and year-to-date in 2011, Glass Lewis noted that Klondexs price-to-book multiple exceeded that of a peer group of comparable companies.
