VANCOUVER,
Sept. 6, 2011 /PRNewswire/ - Catalyst
Copper Corp. (the "Company" or "Catalyst") is pleased
to release the latest drill results from the on-going drill program
at the La Verde copper porphyry
project in Michoacán state, Mexico.
Drill holes LV11-020, LV11-024 and LV11-025 were drilled on the
East Hill deposit.
LV11-020 returned 0.51% copper, 0.045 g/t gold and 3.3 g/t
silver over 58.00 meters and 0.41% copper, 0.065 g/t gold
and 4.2 g/t silver over 133.50 meters. Drill hole LV11-024
returned 0.50% copper, 0.073 g/t gold and 5.0 g/t silver over
358.90 meters including 0.63% copper, 0.105 g/t gold
and 8.8 g/t silver over 112.70 meters. LV11-025 returned
0.22% copper, 0.034 g/t gold and 1.5 g/t silver over 239.00
meters. Total results for these East
Hill drill holes are shown in Table 1.
Drill holes LV11-021 to Lv11-023 were drilled to test a
geophysical (Induced Polarization) anomaly located 1.5 kms south of
the main La Verde deposits. Only
two of the three drill holes penetrated the thick overburden found
in this area. These drill holes intersected iron sulfides (pyrite),
iron oxides (magnetite) which would explain the IP anomaly.

Drill hole LV11-020 was drilled on section 812350 in the
eastern part of the East Hill
deposit in an area previously drilled with shallow drill holes
