MUSTANG MINERALS CORP. ANNOUNCES MAYVILLE EAST DRILLING



Mayville East Drilling Announced
Mustang Minerals Corp.

(TSX VENTURE:MUM) ("Mustang" or the "Company") today announced an update to its exploration program at its Mayville Property located in southeastern Manitoba.

The Company has completed a first phase drill program testing the eastern strike extent of the Mayville Cu-Ni deposit and all assays have been received.

Drilling results indicate the potential for additional tonnage east of the limits of the known Mayville Deposit where the deposit remains open to depth.

The new drilling also shows potential in this area of the resource for higher grade intervals.

Base metal mineralization was found over 300 meters east of the previously known eastern limits of the Mayville resource.

Drill sections and a revised long section showing the new drilling in relation to the February 2013 resource estimate have been posted on the Mustang website.


Summary Drilling Results Significant intercepts were returned from the following drillholes.

Mayville East Extension The primary objective of the drill program was to test for potential base metal mineralization at the east end of the Mayville Deposit and further define the on strike potential to the east.

An important intercept was drill hole MAY-13-146 (11.08m of 0.58% Cu.

0.18% Ni from 114.6 m ) which successfully tested the updip extension of MAY-12-143 which intersected mineralization (18.53 m of 0.56% Cu, 0.16% Ni, 0.90g/t Ag and 0.21 g/t TPM) at a depth of 174.47 meters (see NR, Dec 10th, 2012).

These two holes were drilled approximately 240m east of the last fence of drill holes in the present Mayville resource.

Drilling further to the east encountered narrower intervals of copper mineralization including 2.0m at 1.34% Cu in MAY-13-149.

Overall, mineralization now extends approximately ~340m past the previously defined limit of the Mayville resource.

Borehole EM will be required to further assist with drill targeting of the Mayville East area and assist the Company in the next phase of resource drilling.

Drill hole MAY-13-156 was notable in that it intersected two mineralized intercepts including a 0.55m interval of massive sulphide that assayed 2.1% nickel and 1.34 g/t TPM within 7.9m which assayed 0.44% nickel and 1.24% copper starting from 33.5m downhole depth.

MAY-13-156 was drilled to test the up dip extent of mineralization in Falconbridge historic drill hole M-21 which intersected 16.9 m grading 1.39% copper and 0.17% nickel from 118.8 m.

MAY 13-156 was in the area of a large undrilled gap in near surface drilling at the east end of the deposit where the other widely spaced near surface holes intersected strong base metal values.

The hole was drilled 100m east of MAY06-50 which intersected 0.79% Cu and 0.34% Ni over 15.2m from 15.8 downhole depth and 50 meters west of May06-43 which intersected numerous significant values.

( see longsection).

Elsewhere, two large geophysical targets defined by airborne EM and IP in the near proximity to the Mayville Deposit were drill tested but did not yield significant base metal values.

These included: 1.

Drillhole MAY13-152 which tested the interpreted north margin of the Mayville Intrusion.

The strong geophysical conductor that was the target was not explained.

2.

Two drill holes (MAY13-144/145) which were drilled up to one kilometer east the Mayville Deposit.

Both holes intersected favourable gabbroic rocks and contained anomalous nickel values but no significant sulphide accumulation as would be expected from the geophysical target.

Follow up down hole geophysics is considered warranted in both of these areas. Discussion The drilling has added to the resource potential of the eastern part of the Mayville Deposit and intersected some good grade open pit intervals close to surface.

Other drilling confirmed that the favourable host rocks extend along strike further east of the known limits of mineralization The Company is encouraged by the results and will continue exploration efforts aimed at increasing the quality and size of the resource base at Mayville.


Other Activities The Company has recently contracted a heliborne EM survey over the far eastern portion of the Mayville Intrusion, approximately 5 km east of the Mayville Deposit, which covers several known occurrences of Mayville style base metal mineralization in gabbroic rocks.

Data collection has been completed from the survey and following receipt of the survey data, this information will be compiled with the surface sample data and known historical occurrences and a summary will be outlined.

The Company has commenced field mapping to sample known occurrences in the area and to ground proof geophysical target areas.

There has been limited exploration activity in the area and largely for pegmatites.

The initiative is considered a low cost high potential effort to increase the overall economic mineral potential in the area of the Mayville Intrusion - large parts of which have very limited exploration.

Mustang has initiated work on a Preliminary Economic Analysis focused on the resources/reserves at Makwa and Mayville.

Current ore reserves and mineral resources at Mustangs two deposits are:
Makwa Ni-Cu Deposit NI 43-101 Probable Ore Reserve Estimate of 9.86 million tonnes containing 0.541% nickel, 0.113% copper 0.433 g/t combined PGM.

(reserve estimate completed February 2010 by Micon International Limited) Mayville Cu-Ni Deposit NI 43-101 Indicated Mineral Resource estimate is 24.3 million tonnes containing 0.45% copper, 0.19% nickel.

Inferred mineral resource estimate is 4.1 million tonnes containing 0.45% copper and 0.18% nickel.

(Feb.2013 RPA Inc.) QA/QC Program All core samples are sent to Accurassay Laboratories in Thunder Bay, Ontario.

Analysis is completed for nickel, copper, cobalt and silver using an Aqua Regia digestion followed by AAS/ICP finish.

For gold, platinum and palladium, fire assay of 30g aliquots followed by combination fire assay and AAS finish is employed.

Drill core is logged and split on the Makwa site by Mustang personnel with half the core retained and stored.

Mustang implements a QA/QC program on drill core including inserting blanks, duplicates and commercial standards at regular intervals with all core sample submissions to the laboratory.
