Weststar Resources Corp. ("Weststar", the "Company") (TSX VENTURE:WER) announced
today that, further to its May 23, 2013 news release, the Company has been
granted an extension on the arm's length Letter of Intent dated May 22, 2013
(the "LOI") with Cartier Resources Inc. ("Cartier") (TSX VENTURE:ECR), a Quebec
corporation listed on the TSX Venture Exchange (the "Exchange"), whereby the
Company will be entering into an exclusive option agreement with Cartier to
acquire up to 80% undivided interest in and to fifty-three mining claims located
in the Lescure, Druillettes, Drouet and Gradis Townships of Quebec, Canada (the
"Property"). The extension is in relation to a condition precedent to the LOI,
in which Weststar must complete a non-brokered private placement financing,
which has been extended 90 days to November 21, 2013.


Option Terms

Pursuant to the terms of the LOI, in order to earn a 50% interest in the
Property (the "First Option"), Weststar must pay and issue to Cartier $15,000
and 350,000 common shares in the capital of the Company upon Exchange approval
and incur an amount of $1,000,000 in exploration expenditures on the Property
over a period of three years. The Company may acquire an additional 30% interest
(the "Second Option") by incurring an additional $1,000,000 in exploration
expenditures over a period of two years following the completion of the First
Option. The LOI holds a condition precedent that Weststar completes a
non-brokered private placement financing for minimum gross proceeds of $500,000.


The Property

The Property straddles the regional Opawica-Guercheville shear zone within
Quebec's Abitibi Greenstone Belt. This shear zone is known to host economic gold
deposits. The past producing Joe Mann mine (4,289,221 t @ 7.56 g/t Au and 0.23%
Cu) is situated 40 kilometres to the east, and the recently re-opened Bachelor
Lake Mine is situated approximately 80 kilometres to the west. 


Gold mineralization is very similar to the "Osisko type mineralization" as seen
in the Malartic mining camp. Osisko Mining Corporation's Canadian Malartic mine
hosts a total of 10.7 million ounces of Proven and Probable reserves).


The Property covers targets # 142, 149 and 159 of the Lamothe and Harris
(EP2006-01) Gold Favorability study. This study located zones of high
favourability for orogenic gold mineralization in the Abitibi.


Previous drilling (102 holes) revealed a broad gold-bearing porphyritic dyke
swarm over 200 metres in width. Drill hole GD-04 intercepted 91 ppb gold over
213.0 metres. Hole GD-38 also interecepted a 161.5 metre thick zone assaying
0.12 g/t gold. The dyke swarm was traced over a strike length of more than 10
kilometres.


Cartier's grab samples yielded anomalous gold values of 5.02 g/t Au, 4.83 g/t Au
and 4.08 g/t Au, in addition to grades of 2.01 g/t Au, 1.55 g/t Au and 1.16 g/t
Au. A historical grab sample, the Riverside Showing was discovered in 1985 and
assayed 10.4 g/t gold.


The gold-bearing structures, confirmed by previous drilling featured gold
mineralization over widths of up to 160 metres. Numerous altered and mineralized
(gold-rich) felsic intrusives at major geological contacts within the
deformation zone were also mapped. Cartier has integrated over 4,911 assay
results for gold into a digital database, produced set of sections, level plans
and longitudinal sections that show the numerous drill targets on the Property.
Cartier has located historical diamond drill hole casings and highly altered
mineralized felsic intrusive. Results from this sampling include grab and
channel samples assaying up to 4.8 g/t Au.
