TORONTO, ONTARIO--(Marketwire - Nov. 2, 2009) - Castle Resources Limited (TSX VENTURE:CRI) ("Castle" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has entered into an agreement to acquire a 100% interest in the Horseshoe Claim Group in the prolific Stewart Mining Camp in northwest British Columbia, Canada.

Castle will earn a 100% undivided interest in the Horseshoe Property over a 3 year period by spending $1.5 million on exploration and drilling expenses. Castle will pay the vendor a total of $300,000 and will issue 360,000 shares of the Company over the term of the option, subject to exchange approval.

"The Horseshoe Property has several attractive high-grade vein systems at surface which we intend to aggressively explore in the coming year," said Mr. Stephen Shefsky, President & CEO of Castle Resources. "As part of a focused effort to acquire highly-prospective mineral properties in the Stewart Gold Belt, we believe the Horseshoe property offers our shareholders exposure to an attractive exploration block in a historical mining camp that has produced many world class deposits."

The Horseshoe Property has numerous promising precious metal surface showings including the High-Grade Vein showing, which has received most of the historic work in the area. According to a Minister of Mines Annual Report in 1926, a sample of quartz vein material assayed 86.2 g/t gold and 123 g/t silver During a recent property visit, 3 grab samples were collected along the High-Grade Vein, which returned values of 20.7 g/t Au and 68.3 g/t Ag; 2.23 g/t Au; and 0.9 g/t Au. The 4^th grab sample was collected from a separate showing with a visible surface strike length of over 100 metres averaging 7+ metres in width and returned values of 2.0% Cu, 156 g/t Ag and 1.04 g/t Au.

Castle is planning a comprehensive exploration program for next year to test this vein system with the goal of developing a NI 43-101 compliant resource calculation. The closest past producer to the Horseshoe Property is known as the Porter-Idaho located less than 750 meters to the north of the property boundary.

Brad Leonard, P. Geo., Castle's Exploration Manager, is the Qualified Person responsible for the scientific and technical work discussed as defined under National Instrument 43-101 and has reviewed this press release.
