Castle Resources Inc. (TSX VENTURE:CRI) ("Castle" or the "Company") is pleased
to announce its 2nd positive set of drill core assay results from the recently
completed surface exploration program at the Granduc Copper Project located near
Stewart, B.C.
"As part of our overall objective of growing the inferred copper resource at the
Granduc, our 2012 strategy on the South Zone was designed to identify near
surface mineralization and target higher grade zones at depth," stated Mr. Mike
Sylvestre, President & CEO of Castle Resources. "I am pleased to report drilling
was very successful; first, we further delineated the up-dip extent of copper
mineralization in the foot wall zone thorough a series of shallow holes, and
second, we encountered deeper copper intersections immediately adjacent to our
current NI 43-101 resource estimate."
Mr. Sylvestre continued, "At this juncture we can clearly state that these new
exploration results confirm that the South Zone is in fact an extension of Main
Zone mineralization. In other words, it is all part of the same mineralized
system, a large VMS Besshi-style copper rich environment that notably remains
open to the south and at depth."
