Castle Resources Inc. (TSX VENTURE:CRI) ("Castle" or the "Company") is pleased
to announce drilling has begun at its 100% owned Granduc Copper Project near
Stewart, British Columbia.


The initial focus of the 2012 drilling program is to drill test and expand upon
the resource areas in the South Zone not drilled during 2011. Approximately 6500
metres is planned to be drilled in 12 holes with 2 drills set up on the South
Leduc Glacier. In early June, additional drills will be mobilized onto the
property to begin a large and systematic exploration program on the North Zone. 


"Castle's drilling success in 2011 and the subsequent NI 43-101 resource
estimate clearly shows there remains significant copper mineralization in the
South Zone," said Mr. Mike Sylvestre, President & CEO of Castle Resources Inc.
"We are getting an early start on South Zone to test this assumption and look
forward to growing the South Zone inferred footprint in our next resource
estimate."


The Granduc South Zone is a large extension of the high grade copper resource
that Castle is currently in the process of developing beneath the historic
Newmont and Esso mine workings. In 2011, Castle's drilling confirmed Granduc
copper mineralization extends at least 600 meters to the south of Main Zone
mineralization, and importantly, assay results from South Zone drill holes
reported wider mineralized thicknesses and higher copper grades.
