Castle Peak Mining Ltd. ("Castle Peak" or the "Company") (TSX VENTURE:CAP), is
pleased to announce it has commenced an 1,100 metre ('m') follow up drill
program on its high grade Apankrah target at the Company's Akorade Project in
the southern Ashanti belt, Ghana, Africa (see Figure 1 Apankrah Target, Akorade
Project Location Map). The program will encompass four to five holes, with the
first two holes targeting down dip and down plunge of drill hole NKDDH022
announced in August, which returned (uncut) 80 grams per tonne ('g/t') gold
('Au') across the 6.0m mineralized structural zone within a 17m intersection of
lower grade gold mineralization. Other drill holes that define the high grade
shoot include 10.0m of 6.7 g/t Au and 9.8m of 6.8 g/t Au from holes NKDDH017 and
NKDDH018 respectively.


Darren Lindsay, President and CEO, stated, "We are very excited to be working
towards the further definition of a significant high grade discovery at
Apankrah. Given its close proximity to several low grade producers, the Apankrah
Target may be the anchor point we have been looking for to begin our resource
growth."


The Company completed 3,000m of drilling in 2012 to partially define the
Apankrah Shoot, a steeply plunging high grade shoot with a strike length
averaging over 100m and increasing with depth and a down plunge/dip extent of
over 200m and remains open (see Figure 2 Apankrah Shoot Longitudinal Section).
This high grade shoot is located within the auriferous Apankrah structure which
has a known strike length of greater than 350m and is open in all directions.

Technical Disclosure

Castle Peak's technical disclosure in this news release has been reviewed and
approved by Darren Lindsay, P.Geo., Castle Peak's President and CEO, who serves
as a Qualified Person under the definition in National Instrument 43-101 ('NI
43-101'). The exploration activities are supervised by Clive Arthur, Castle
Peak's Vice President Exploration. The procedures include the systematic
insertion of blanks, standards and duplicates into the sample stream both in the
field and at the lab; samples are placed in sealed bags and are delivered to SGS
Laboratory Services GH Ltd. in Tarkwa, Ghana, for routine gold analysis by 50g
charge fire assay with atomic absorption finish. Samples with visible gold or
returning greater than 5 g/t Au from fire assay are subject to analysis using
screen metallic assay. The Akorade project is an early stage exploration project
and does not contain any mineral resources as defined by NI 43-101. The
potential quantities and grades disclosed herein are conceptual in nature and
there has been insufficient exploration to define a mineral resource for the
targets disclosed herein. It is uncertain if further exploration will result in
these targets being delineated as a mineral resource. Further information is
available in the NI 43-101 compliant technical report dated February 14, 2011
