Press Release #201118 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE June 3, 2011

Two New Directors Appointed and Options Granted

Vancouver, BC—Enertopia Corporation (ENRT) (the "Company" or "Enertopia") announces that it has appointed Mr. Greg Dawson MSc, PGeo and Mr. Donald Findlay MSc, Geo as Directors of the Company.

Mr. Dawson has worked in the resource exploration business for over 25 years, including several years with Teck Exploration Ltd, and as Vice President of Exploration for Copper Ridge Explorations Inc. Currently Mr. Dawson is President of Redtail Metals Corp, a Venture listed company that is focused on developing the Marg VMS deposit in the Yukon. Mr. Dawson received his MSc (MinEx) from Queens’ University in 1991.

Mr. Findlay, who was appointed as an advisor to Enertopia in March of this year, has agreed to assume the position of director. Mr. Findlay received his MSc in geology in 1978 with a thesis on copper molybdenum porphyry deposits.

Enertopia is extremely pleased to have both Greg and Don join our Board of directors and the growing team. “In five short months the company has been able to build a top notch geological team, bring in our first exploration project at Copper Hills, and complete our first financing,” said Robert McAllister, President.

Due diligence is progressing on two other projects: one in Arizona targeting gold, silver and copper; and one in Nevada targeting silver, lead and zinc. Both projects have had historic drilling. There can be no assurance of these projects being acquired by Enertopia as property examinations are ongoing, but they have passed the first phase of due diligence that meet Enertopia’s requirements for adding value to shareholders.

"We are extremely happy with the quality of advanced exploration projects that we have been able to locate in mining friendly areas with good infrastructure through our contacts in the mining industry," said Robert McAllister, president.

Mr. Dawson will receive an honorarium of CDN $2,000 for the first year of his participation on our Board and a grant of 250,000 options exercisable at a price of $0.25 in connection with his engagement.

Mr. Findlay will receive a grant of 50,000 options exercisable at a price of $0.25 in connection with his engagement.
