TORONTO, July 16, 2013 - This press release corrects and replaces the one that was sent on July 16th, 2013 at 8:30 AM ET. A figure has been corrected in the subtitle. The complete and corrected version follows.


Castle Mountain Mining Company Limited (TSX VENTURE:CMM) ("Castle Mountain Mining", "we", "us" or the "Company") is pleased to announce final results from its completed Phase 1 drill program at the Company's Castle Mountain Project in San Bernardino County, California. The average intercept of the final 3 holes was 21 m at an average grade of 0.85 g/t Au.1 The number of intervals per hole ranged from 5 to 6 with interval lengths ranging from 3 m to 119 m.

Drilling has been completed in 30 holes with all assay results included in the table attached to this news release including the previously announced results of 0.79 g/t Au over 288 m and 2.32 g/t Au over 30 m1. The Phase one program included 6,305 m of Core and 2,063 m of Reverse Circulation ("RC") drilling. There has been no evidence of a transition or sulphide zone produced from Phase 1 drilling; all holes have bottomed in oxidized material. The Company also expects to release news regarding its permit extension prior to the end of July. The table below highlights results from the recent holes:

"The final results from our Phase 1 drill program strengthen our resolve that the Castle Mountain Mine has the potential to again be a producing gold mine. The most recent results of high grades over lengthy intervals in unmined areas show the strong growth potential of the property beyond the previously known mineralization. These gold grades over substantial intervals and oxide nature of the rock indicates to us that this will likely be a low cost heap leach operation that can be put into production quite quickly. Upon completion of the analysis of the Phase 1 program, subject to financing, we expect to begin a Phase 2 drill program which will provide us with the remaining information required to update historic resource estimates to NI 43-101 standards," commented Gordon McCreary, President and CEO.

The Phase 1 drill program at Castle Mountain was designed to twin and scissor historic drill holes in and around the previously mined pits as well as to test mineralization in certain exploration target areas allowing us to further define plans of a more extensive Phase 2 program. Based on logging, a surprise from the Phase 1 program has been that oxidation extends much deeper than had previously been assumed. Although sporadic sulphides have been detected at depth, the high level of oxidation bodes well with respect to metallurgical recovery for the potential reactivation of the Castle Mountain heap leach mine. The Company will continue geologic mapping on the property and work on interpretation of the extensive drill database until the start of the Phase 2 program.

Gold mineralization at Castle Mountain is hosted in a sequence of Miocene (17Ma-14Ma) rhyolite domes, flows and associated sedimentary units. The hydrothermal system is typical of other low-sulfidation gold deposits within the Great Basin. Very fine-grained gold and electrum occurs disseminated in and adjacent to quartz-stockwork veins, brecciated rhyolite domes, structures and silicified volcanic rocks.

Previous exploration at Castle Mountain focused on northeast-trending structures and rhyolite domes as the principle ore-controlling features. The initial targets for CMM's Phase 1 drill program focused on these features. As CMM's drill program progressed the importance of other structural and lithologic settings for gold mineralization became apparent. Later holes were re-directed to test targets identified through interpretation of early results. Intersections of northwest- and northeast-trending structures, and structural intersections within other lithologies other than the rhyolite domes, contain gold mineralization. An example of this change in interpretation is at the north end of the Oro Belle pit. Early holes (CMM-005 through CMM-009) were directed northwesterly to test projected northeast structures. Results from these holes were below expectations. After reviewing the information, CMM-036 was drilled in a northeasterly direction. Gold grades in CMM-036 were significantly higher and over longer intervals than in the earlier holes.

Additional holes were planned for the Phase 1 program in the area of CMM-015 and CMM-016 but these were not drilled. It is anticipated that some or all of these holes will be drilled in the Phase 2 program.

Upon analysis of the results of the Phase 1 program with the aid of computer generated models, Castle Mountain Mining expects to start a Phase 2 program at the property, subject to financing. Castle Mountain Mining has engaged RPA Inc. to work with the Company in developing a program that will, amongst other things, identify optimal drill locations, meet and exceed QA/QC standards, and allow the historic drilling on the property made up of 354,800 m of drilling across 1,729 drill holes to be used to create a mineral resource on the property that is in accordance with National Instrument 43-101 ("NI 43-101"). The Company anticipates the release of the technical report following the completion of the Phase 2 drill program.


About Castle Mountain Mining Company

Subject to certain obligations, Castle Mountain has 100% of the right, title and beneficial interest in and to the Castle Mountain Venture, a California general partnership, which owns the Castle Mountain property in San Bernardino County, California. The Castle Mountain heap leach gold mine produced over one million ounces of gold from 1992 to 2001, when mining was suspended due to low gold prices.

The Castle Mountain venture land holdings (7,458 acres total) include patented claims (1,298 acres), and unpatented claims (3,209 acres), covering approximately 4,507 acres, plus additional leased claims of approximately 2,951 acres. The Company has recently completed the Phase 1 drill program which tested several exploration targets at various locations on the property.

Sampling Procedures and Quality Assurance

The scientific and technical information in this news release has been reviewed and approved by Kevin Kunkel, CPG, Castle Mountain Project Manager, who is a Qualified Person as defined by NI 43-101. The exploration activities at Castle Mountain were carried out under the supervision of Mr. Kunkel.

All gold assays are by a 30 g Fire Assay charge followed by an atomic absorption finish (with a 0.0005 g/t lower reporting limit). Samples reporting values > 10 g/t are re-analyzed using a 30 g Fire Assay charge followed by a gravimetric finish. All composites utilize a 0.2 g/t cut off and may include internal waste. Some intervals may not add or subtract correctly due to rounding, but are deemed insignificant. Analyses are carried out by ALS in their Reno, Nevada laboratory. ALS is independent of Castle Mountain Mining Limited and any of its subsidiaries. Blank and standard samples are used for quality assurance and quality control and a review of the results of analyses of the blanks, standards and duplicates by the Company's Qualified Person indicates values are within normal and acceptable ranges. Mr. Kunkel has verified the data underlying the results contained in this news release. Mr. Kunkel experienced no limitations in his verification process and is of the opinion that there are no material factors that could affect the reliability of the results.
