Riverstone Resources Inc. (TSX VENTURE:RVS)(OTCQX:RVREF)(FRANKFURT:3RV) ("Riverstone" or the "Company") is pleased to report results from sixty-seven reverse circulation ("RC") drill holes on the 100% owned Biliga and Tangapella exploration permits, which form the Company's Bissa East Gold Project in Burkina Faso, West Africa (the "Bissa East Project"). These holes were part of a regional drill program designed to follow up on previously obtained anomalous soil, rock chip and RAB drilling results. Significant assay intervals in these RC holes include: -- 6.95 g/t gold over 6 m in TGP-12-RC-044 -- 1.2 g/t gold over 36 m including 1.60 g/t gold over 12 m in BLG-12-RC- 034 -- 1.13 g/t gold over 24 m in BLG-12-RC-032 -- 1.04 g/t gold over 18 m including 2.94 g/t gold over 4 m in BLG-12-RC- 004 -- 1.12 g/t gold over 8 m in BLG-12-RC-020 -- 2.03 g/t gold over 4 m in BLG-12-RC-012 "The Bissa East Project area is a highly prospective regional exploration target as it is adjacent to the Bissa Hill gold mine," commented Dwayne Melrose, President and CEO of Riverstone. "These initial RC drill results are very promising as they give us a good indication of numerous gold bearing structures that need to be followed up with further drilling. Riverstone has a very good portfolio of early stage exploration projects such as the Bissa East Project, Bissa West Project and also Liguidi, not to mention the excellent potential for expanding the Karma deposits." The Biliga drill program comprised 40 holes (4752 m) and was designed to follow up on RAB drilling results from 2007 that returned 0.91 g/t gold over 21 m, including 1.67 g/t gold over 9 m in BLG-07-023, 2.09 g/t gold over 3 m in BLG-07-030, 1.38 g/t gold over 3 m in BLG-07-059, 1.47 g/t gold over 3 m in BLG-07-064 and 1.37 g/t gold over 3 m in BLG-07-075 (See Map on the Company's website for the location of the Biliga holes: http://www.riverstoneresources.com/i/maps/121006BLG-121005_BissaEast_PortPlan.jpg). The Biliga permit is underlain by a series of northwest trending metasedimentary and metavolcanic rocks plus a least one northeast trending intrusive. The intrusive lies in close proximity to a prominent regional northeast trending shear structure, which parallels the Sabce shear zone to the south. This un-named structure hosts a small gold deposit just west of the Biliga permit, and it trends for almost 19 kilometres across Biliga. The Bissa Hill gold mine, which is currently under construction, along with a large number of gold occurrences, occurs within the Sabce shear to the southwest. The RC drill results indicate the presence of three gold bearing sub-parallel structures within the intrusive, with the southernmost structure traced for 1000 metres. All three structures are open in all directions, and are zones characterized by silica and hematite alteration, quartz veining and brecciation. Drilling on Tangapella totaled 30 holes (3516 m) and targeted an artisanal mining site where previous rock chip sampling had returned high gold values, along with a prominent gold in soil anomaly further south. Tangapella is underlain by two distinct northwest trending bands of metavolcanics in thrust contact with surrounding metasediments, folded into a prominent northeast trending regional antiform. The axis of the antiform contains the Sabce shear, a wide zone of deformation, which can be traced for approximately 20 kilometres across the permit. The volcanic-sedimentary contacts contain numerous artisanal gold mining sites, with intensely fractured, quartz veins and quartz stringer zones (See Map on the Company's website for the location of the Tangapella holes: http://www.riverstoneresources.com/i/maps/121006TGP-121005_BissaEastTGP_PortPlan.jpg). The Tanmiga artisanal site occurs adjacent to the Sabce shear zone in a subsidiary structure. The Company obtained high gold values in rock sample results in 2007 within highly fractured, quartz rich, brecciated metasedimentary rocks. RC drill results indicate the presence of a discontinuous structure traceable over approximately 600 m, which is open in all directions. The Mafalou area to the south contains a prominent gold in soil anomaly, and the RC drilling has traced a discontinuous 400 metre long zone of brecciation, within which hole TGP-12-RC-044 returned 6.95 g/t gold over 6 m. A more complete summary of significant results in these drill holes is presented in the following table: Interval (metres) Intercept Average Hole number From To (metres) (g/t Au) ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tangapella Permit: TGP-12- RC-019 108 110 2 1.340 TGP-12-RC-026 54 60 6 0.792 and 130 134 4 0.565 TGP-12-RC-027 74 78 4 0.502 and 84 88 4 0.639 and 98 100 2 1.330 TGP-12-RC-029 60 64 4 0.693 and 72 84 12 0.438 TGP-12-RC-031 100 108 8 0.474 TGP-12-RC-044 142 148 6 6.953 TGP-12-RC-045 68 70 2 1.600 and 76 78 2 0.701 Biliga Permit: BLG-12-RC-002 18 20 2 0.502 and 54 62 8 0.427 BLG-12-RC-004 0 18 18 1.040 including 6 10 4 2.935 BLG-12-RC-005 6 8 2 0.761 and 38 40 2 0.564 BLG-12-RC-006 14 20 6 0.483 BLG-12-RC-007 34 50 16 0.426 BLG-12-RC-008 6 14 8 0.508 BLG-12-RC-012 10 14 4 2.030 and 42 54 12 0.565 BLG-12-RC-013 102 112 10 0.565 BLG-12-RC-014 88 90 2 0.573 BLG-12-RC-015 50 54 4 0.866 BLG-12-RC-017 106 108 2 0.804 BLG-12-RC-018 40 42 2 1.630 and 98 100 2 1.140 and 110 112 2 1.130 BLG-12-RC-019 52 54 2 0.722 BLG-12-RC-020 0 8 8 1.123 BLG-12-RC-021 38 82 44 0.685 and 94 102 8 0.573 BLG-12-RC-023 52 58 6 0.490 BLG-12-RC-024 0 2 2 1.920 BLG-12-RC-025 10 16 6 0.891 and 80 84 4 0.723 BLG-12-RC-026 32 36 4 0.566 and 50 52 2 0.692 and 56 58 2 1.430 BLG-12-RC-027 6 8 2 0.527 and 20 28 8 0.520 BLG-12-RC-028 2 8 6 0.649 and 40 42 2 1.600 and 64 66 2 1.740 BLG-12-RC-030 30 34 4 0.816 BLG-12-RC-031 36 44 8 0.581 BLG-12-RC-032 44 68 24 1.131 BLG-12-RC-033 2 8 6 0.436 and 74 76 2 0.713 BLG-12-RC-034 38 74 36 1.203 including 38 50 12 1.595 and 82 100 18 0.482 and 106 108 2 0.710 BLG-12-RC-036 104 106 2 0.917 and 128 132 4 0.482 Notes: Insufficient work has been completed on these areas to determine the true thickness of the mineralized zones. Riverstone is active in Burkina Faso, West Africa, where it holds a portfolio of four high quality exploration projects covering in excess of 1,800 square kilometres. The Company's flagship project is the Karma Gold Project (the "Karma Project"), which comprises a NI 43-101 compliant in-pit Whittle indicated resource of 1.9 million ounces of gold in 56.5 million tonnes grading 1.1 g/t gold and an inferred resource of 0.5 million ounces of gold in 15.4 million tonnes grading 1.0 g/t gold (see Company's news release dated October 3, 2012 filed on SEDAR (www.sedar.com). The results of a Preliminary Economic Assessment ("PEA"), which has recently been released (see Company news release dated August 20, 2012 and NI 43-101 Technical Report titled, "Preliminary Economic Assessment Report for the Karma Project, Burkina Faso, West Africa", with an effective date of August 2, 2012, filed on SEDAR (www.sedar.com) September 17, 2012), highlights the Karma Project to have robust economics. The PEA is based on the Company's previous January 9, 2012 resource estimate. The results of the updated resource estimate announced on October 3, 2012, is expected to further enhance project value as the Karma Project is advanced.
