Corporate Update

Balmoral continues to have a strong working capital position of over $10.0 million dollars. In recognition of the continued difficulties in the junior resource industry, management and the Board of Directors of the Company have undertaken an austerity program which is designed to reduce the overhead of the Company, on a go forward basis, by a minimum of 20% without affecting the current exploration plans.

Initial plans are now in place for the summer 2013 exploration program on the Company's Detour Trend Gold Project in Quebec. The Board of Directors has approved an exploration budget of $3.8 million dollars for the balance of the 2013 calendar year, which is in keeping with the Company's current flow-through financing commitments for 2013. After a highly successful expansion program completed during the winter of 2013 on the Company's Martiniere Property, the summer 2013 program will focus on the further delineation and expansion of the Company's high-grade gold discoveries at Martiniere and on continued advancement of a number of high-priority targets throughout the 650 square kilometre Detour Gold Trend Project area, including discoveries in the Grasset and Detour East areas.

Geophysical and geochemical crews will be mobilized to the Martiniere Property over the next 2-3 weeks with drilling anticipated to commence in mid-July and continue through the summer months. The goal is to complete between 12,000 and 15,000 metres of drilling between July and early October.

GTA Resources and Mining Inc. has advised the Company that its Phase 4 drilling program on the Company's Northshore Property in Ontario has now been completed. Results from three additional holes are now pending, including an initial test of the former producing Northshore Mine system.
