    CERRO RESOURCES – 7 holes @ 200g/t+ Silver from Namiquipa, Mexico

    Initial Resource Evaluation Work to Commence
    June 20, 2012: Cerro Resources NL (ASX/TSX-V: CJO) is pleased to advise it has received
    excellent final drill results from the Stage 1 diamond core drill campaign at the Namiquipa Silver
    Project (CJO - 100%), in Chihuahua, Mexico.

    HIGHLIGHTS

    ? Drilling has identified a broad zone of confluence between the principal Princesa and
    America vein systems;
    ? 11 out of the 16 holes yielded silver intercepts greater than 100 g/t Ag;
    ? 7 holes yielded silver intercepts greater than 200 g/t Ag, including:
    o 3.66m@738g/t AgEq (NAM-085) from 122.34m (654g/t Ag, 0.62% Pb and
    2.43% Zn),
    o 8.8m@268g/t AgEq (NAM-084) from 145.12m (255g/t Ag, 0.19% Pb and 0.32%
    Zn), including 0.25m@2,397 g/t AgEq from 145.12m (2,340g/t Ag, 1%Pb and
    1% Zn), and
    o 4m@383g/t AgEq (NAM-078) from 148m (363g/t Ag, 0.6%Pb and 0.2% Zn).

    Stage 1 drilling, comprising 86 holes, has delineated a major silver-driven system of largely
    contiguous mineralized veins (Ag-Pb-Zn) encompassing 1km lateral strike, and extending from
    150m below surface to 500 meters down-dip.
    The drill results from this extensive system will now be incorporated into a detailed geologicalgeophysical-
    geochemical model for purposes of completing an initial resource estimation during
    the second half 2012.

    Surface exploration, consisting of soil geochemistry and a planned Induced Polarization
    geophysics, is also underway to better define the northern extension of the Namiquipa
    mineralization. This will be subject of drill testing at a later stage – post the initial resource assessment.
