Creston's Appeal of Arbitrator's Award is Turned Down

   Creston Moly Corp. ("Creston" or the "Company") (TSX VENTURE: CMS) advises that its appeal of an arbitrator's December 23, 2008 decision on a finder's fee has been turned down by the Supreme Court of British Columbia (the "Court").

The Court's decision of the arbitrator's award will not materially affect the working capital of the Company as the liability to Sattva Capital Corp. (the "Finder") of more than $2,600,000 has been fully provided for in the Company's accounts and $2,609,000 was placed in trust for the payment of this liability in 2009. At October 31, 2010, after providing for the loss of this appeal the Company had working capital of $3,745,421 and subsequently closed an $11,500,000 financing for working capital and continued work on developing its El Creston Project in Sonora Mexico.

In a decision handed down on December 23, 2008, an arbitrator ruled that Creston was required to pay $4,140,000 plus costs to the Finder in connection with the acquisition of Creston's molybdenum property in Mexico. The Company had entered into a finder's fee agreement to pay a fee in the amount of US$1,500,000 in shares, or at the election of the Finder, in cash. Creston received TSX Venture Exchange approval to pay US$1,500,000 or the equivalent amount in shares valued at $0.70 per share, which was the value of the shares issued for the acquisition and a related $40,012,000 financing. The Finder, however, sought to have the fee paid in shares at a price of $0.15 per share and referred the matter to arbitration. In December 2008, the arbitrator found in favour of the Finder and awarded the Finder $4,140,000 plus costs, payable in cash. In 2009, Creston paid the undisputed US$1,500,000 portion of the award, placed the unpaid balance of the $4,140,000 in trust and began the process to appeal the arbitrator's decision. In November 2010, the Court heard the Company's appeal and today the Company has been advised that its appeal has been turned down with costs.

Management of the Company is disappointed by this development and intends to pursue a further appeal of the decision in the B.C. Court of Appeal.

Creston is continuing to advance the feasibility work on the El Creston Property with an estimated completion date for the feasibility study budgeted for mid-2011.
