Toronto, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - February 26, 2015) - Miocene Resources Limited (TSXV: MII) ("Miocene") and Carube Resources Inc. ("Carube") are pleased to extend an invitation to visit our corporate and core shack booths at the PDAC. We are delighted to share the exciting results from on-going exploration programs at Carube's four copper-gold projects in Jamaica and more specifically drill results from the highly prospective porphyries being drilled on the Bellas Gate Project ("BGP") by joint venture partner, OZ Minerals Limited ("OZM"). Drill core and results will be available for viewing.

During 2014 Carube has made significant progress on its RTO with Miocene. At the same time, OZM has fulfilled the $2.9 million in exploration expenses on the Bella Gate Joint Venture ("BGJV"), thereby earning a 60% interest in the BGP. OZM is currently completing a $3.6 million exploration program in order to increase its interest in the BGP to 70%. This program is scheduled to be completed by the end of year.

About Miocene Resources Limited

Miocene is focused on the exploration of three porphyry copper-gold-molybdenum properties in south-western British Columbia that occur within the Tertiary-aged Cascade Magmatic Arc. The Cascade Arc shares many geological characteristics with Tertiary-age porphyry belts that stretch the length of Chile and Peru in South America and hosts some of the world's largest porphyry copper-gold-molybdenum deposits. The Cascade Magmatic Arc hosts a number of significant porphyry Cu-Au and Mo deposits in Washington State, and Alaska (Glacier Peak and Margaret, and Quartz Hill respectively) but remains largely unexplored in British Columbia.
