GTA Intersects 149.5 Metres Grading 3.21 g/t Gold (Uncapped) or 1.20 g/t Gold (Capped) on Northshore Property

GTA Resources and Mining Inc. (TSX VENTURE:GTA)

announces results from the Phase 1 drilling program completed on the Northshore Property during October, 2011. A total of 12 holes were drilled (1,038m) in a closely spaced drilling program targeting the Audney and Caly Veins. Gold mineralization was encountered in each of the holes, and drilling confirmed the continuity of these high-grade gold-bearing vein systems along strike and to depth. Drilling also intersected a number of additional high-grade veins and demonstrated much better than expected continuity of the broad Afric Gold System which hosts these high-grade gold-bearing vein structures.

- Majority of holes collared in and terminated in gold mineralized zones - Caly and Caly North Vein Systems return values of 12.49 g/t gold over 33.80 metres, including bonanza grades of 760.15 g/t gold over 0.40 metres and 131.99 g/t gold over 0.50 metres - High-Grade Audney Vein returns 13.23 g/t gold over 6.50 metres

Strike Graphite Corp. Acquires Wagon Graphite Project in Quebec in Vicinity of Timcal's Lac des Iles Graphite Mine

Strike Graphite Corp. (TSX VENTURE:SRK)

is pleased to announce that it has signed an agreement to acquire a 100-per-cent interest in the Wagon Graphite Property located in southwestern Quebec.

The Wagon Property consists of three separate claim blocks totaling approximately 3,000 hectares situated within the vicinity (approx. 15 km east) of Timcal's Lac des Iles Graphite Mine, 150 km northwest of Montreal. Lac des Iles is the largest of two Canadian graphite producers. It has been in production for over twenty years and produces graphite products of various sizes and purities.

The geology of the property is consistent with the Central Metasedimentary Belt of the Grenville Province and includes quartzofeldspathic rocks, quartzite, biotite gneiss, marble and locally pegmatitic quartzofeldspathic rocks. Graphite is locally present in quartzite and biotite gneiss and in shear zones where the graphite content usually ranges from 3% to 7% Cg exhibiting flakes up to 3 mm in diameter. Large flake graphite is generally considered as 0.2 mm and above.

About one hundred outcrops were located on the property. 15 were sampled and returned assays of 0.57% to 18.13% Cg. The highest grades were more frequently from the paragneiss lithologies. The property covers 18 km strike length of the formations.

Graphite Market

Global consumption of natural graphite has increased from ~600,000 in 2000 to 1.2 MM t in 2012. Demand for graphite has been increasing by approximately 5% per year since 2000 due to the ongoing modernization of China, India and other emerging economies, resulting in strong demand from traditional end uses such as the steel and automotive industries. Graphite also has many important new applications such as lithium ion batteries, fuel cells and nuclear and solar power that have the potential to create significant incremental demand growth. There is roughly 20-30 times more graphite required by weight to produce a lithium-ion battery than there is lithium. Demand for graphite is expected to rise as electric vehicles and lithium battery technology are adopted as well as increasing uses in new technology applications.

Natural graphite comes in several forms: flake, amorphous and lump. Of the 1.2 million tonnes of graphite produced annually, approximately 40% is of the most desirable flake type. China, which produces about 73% of the world's graphite, is seeing production and export growth leveling and export taxes and a licensing system have been instituted. A recent European Commission study regarding the criticality of 41 different materials to the European economy included graphite among the 14 materials high in both economic importance and supply risk (Critical Raw Materials for the EU, July 2010). Graphite prices have been increasing in recent months and over the last couple of years prices for large flake, high purity graphite (+80 mesh, 94-97%C) have more than doubled.

Hope Brook Confirmed as Major Gold Deposit-First NI 43-101 Mineral Resource of 290,000 Ounces Gold Indicated and 740,000 Ounces Gold Inferred

Castillian Resources Corp. (TSX VENTURE:CT)

is pleased to announce its first National Instrument 43-101 ("NI 43-101") compliant mineral resource estimate for its Hope Brook Gold Project in southwestern Newfoundland. The mineral resource estimate presented in Table 1 below is based on 631 diamond drill holes totaling 124,801 metres of historic and recent drilling, including 77 surface diamond drill holes totaling 24,857 metres completed by Castillian in 2010 and 2011. Mineral resources have been estimated within a constraining pit shell at a cutoff grade of 0.50 grams gold per tonne (g Au/t) and below this shell at a cutoff grade of 2.0 g Au/t.

ABOUT CASTILLIAN

Castillian Resources Corp. is a Canadian mineral exploration company listed on the TSX Venture Exchange under the symbol "CT" which has gold and base metal properties in Canada and South America.

Calico's Grassy Mountain Exceeds 1,250,000 ounces Gold and adds 4,100,000 ounces Silver

Calico Resources Corp. (TSX-V: CKB, OTCQX: CVXHF)

is pleased to report a significant increase in both contained ounces and average gold grade at the Grassy Mountain Deposit. In addition to increasing the gold resource, a NI 43-101 compliant silver resource and a NI 43-101 compliant higher-grade component of the gold resource, suitable for underground mining operations, are being reported for the first time - see Table 1 below.

"The gold resource has increased significantly over the June 2011 resource report and the addition of a NI 43-101 compliant silver resource should enhance the project economics. We are extremely pleased with the growth of the Grassy Mountain resource resulting from the 2011 exploration program. We believe these results confirm that there remains significant upside potential to continue to grow the Grassy Mountain resource. Calico looks forward to initiating the 2012 exploration program designed to increase resources and evaluate several of the nearby targets that lie within the current property position." said Bill Wagener President & CEO.

The updated resource calculations were completed by Gustavson Associates of Lakewood, Colorado USA. A full NI 43-101 Technical Report will be posted on Sedar and the Company's website within 45 days of this release.
