Westminster Resources Ltd. has received from Mexican government environmental regulators a letter of permission to conduct its 2013 diamond drill exploration program at the Cumbral-San Bartolo project in Sonora, Mexico. The drill program is scheduled to commence in early February. The Exploration Management Committee for Westminster Resources Ltd. and Capstone Mining Corp.

has planned a 5,400 meter drill program. The initial drill target will be the recently discovered Montoso IP chargeability anomaly. This multiple square kilometre scale target exhibits porphyry deposit style alteration and mineralization patterns.

The extensive 2012 exploration program at the Cumbral-San Bartolo project included 3D-IP and ground magnetic geophysical surveying, soil and rock sampling, geological mapping and prospecting over a 219 line kilometer grid. Results included widespread discovery of copper-gold-silver mineralization in geological environments ranging from veins to porphyry-style targets. Pervasive iron-oxide and sericite-clay alteration zones have been located, often associated with the development of leached caps in the Montoso area.
