San Marco Resources Inc. (TSX VENTURE:SMN) has received the preliminary results
of a petrographic study completed on a large 1 meter x 2.5 meter panel sample
taken from the old Tompiate underground workings (100 meters below surface) on
the Angeles property in Sonora State, Mexico. 


As reported in News Release dated November 27th, 2012, a channel sample was
taken across a 1 meter wide massive hematite structure in the old underground
workings and assay results were:




--  5.92 g/t gold; 59.0 g/t silver; 1.34% copper and 5.43% combined
    lead/zinc



The panel sample, taken from the same location as the above channel sample, was
sent to Laboratorio Technologico Metalurgico, a private lab in Hermosillo,
Mexico, and was prepared for initial petrographic studies. The primary purpose
of this study was to try to identify minerals of economic interest, since only
copper, lead and zinc oxide minerals are recognizable in hand samples from
underground or on surface. A representative cut of this sample was sent to ALS
Chemex for assaying and results are:




--  11.20 g/t gold; 54.8 g/t silver; 1.98% copper and 4.21% combined
    lead/zinc



Early mineralogical results indicate native gold exists as very fine particles
(free and associated with tiny quartz crystals), also copper (chalcopyrite and
copper oxides chrysocolla and malachite), lead (galena and Pb oxide wulfenite)
and zinc (sphalerite and Zn oxide smithsonite).


The Company's Chief Executive Officer, Robert Willis noted: "We find it very
interesting to recognize relative higher grades in larger samples. Even though
the gold appears to be very fine, a larger sample size may be more
representative of in situ metal values."


The Company's geologists have discovered a second adit that appears to access
the Angeles structure, which is sub-parallel to, and approximately 50 meters
south of the Tompiate structure. Sampling of the mineralized structure and
footwall breccia is complete and assay results are expected to be reported
within 2 weeks. Mineralization appears to be very similar to that observed in
the Tompiate underground workings, as well as surface exposures.


Sampling of several addition structures elsewhere on the property is complete,
assays are pending.


Of particular interest is an area of highly oxidized hematitic schists
approximately 50 meters in width, located between the Tompiate and the Angeles
structures. Initial sampling indicates gold grades in the range of 0.3 - 0.8
g/t. Further surface exploration, as well as Phase I drilling, will test these
zones.
