TORONTO, ONTARIO--(Marketwire - Oct. 27, 2009) - Castle Resources Inc. (TSX VENTURE:CRI) ("Castle" or the "Company") is pleased to announce drill results from its Phase I (3,135 metre) diamond drill program at the Elmtree Gold Project near Bathurst, New Brunswick. The company has recently completed its Phase II (1,986 metre) drill program and is awaiting results.

Drill Highlights at the West Gabbro Zone Include:

• 29 metres of 2.43 g/t Au, incl. 20 metres of 3.19 g/t Au
• 18.5 metres of 1.27 g/t Au, incl.3 metres of 4.58 g/t Au

Phase I drilling results have successfully delineated the West Gabbro Zone and has confirmed mineralization intersected at depth under the main core of the West Gabbro Zone resource. Drilling to the west found that the West Gabbro Zone narrows and drilling to the east confirms that there is no fault-offset extension of the West Gabbro Zone.

"The drill program was designed not only to test along strike and down dip in the West Gabbro Zone, but to gain a better understanding of known mineralization and we have successfully achieved these goals," said Mr. Stephen Shefsky, President & CEO of Castle Resources Inc. "Drilling at the West Gabbro Zone has more clearly defined the shape of the gold deposit and we are now in the process of advancing the deposit towards a Preliminary Economic Assessment."

The Company began drilling in early August and finished the Phase I program in September. A total of 3,135 metres were drilled in 16 holes and 732 samples were sent for analyses and all analyses have been received. Two of the 16 holes were designed to replicate older Lacana drilling results as recommended by Mercator Geological Services in their NI 43-101 compliant technical report dated February 12, 2008.

Highlights of drilling results

The Elmtree Gold Property (85 claims, 1,375 hectares) hosts at least three gold-bearing zones, the higher grade West Gabbro Zone, original Discovery Zone and the larger tonnage, lower grade South Gold Zone. In 2008, a NI 43-101 compliant resource estimate reported 525,000 indicated tonnes in the West Gabbro Zone grading 2.45 g/t gold; 1,556,000 inferred tonnes in the West Gabbro Zone grading 2.01 g/t gold; 2,367,000 indicated tones in the South Gold Zone grading 0.74 g/t gold; 583,000 tonnes in the Discovery Zone grading 1.15 g/t gold only, as well as 117,000 inferred tonnes in the Discovery Zone grading 1.77 g/t gold, 44.36 g/t silver, 0.78% lead and 2.17% zinc.

In addition, the Phase II program at the Elmtree Gold Project has recently been completed. Ten holes were drilled (1,986 metres) testing the South Gold Zone & Discovery Zone at depth and infilling previously unexplored areas. The goal of this Phase II program is to further define mineralization and test the relationship between the South Gold Zone and Discovery Zone. Assays are pending and results are expected in November.
