Eurotin Provides Update on Pending Resource Report

Eurotin Inc. ("Eurotin" or the "Company") (TSX VENTURE:TIN), is pleased to
provide the following update on the resource estimation process at the Oropesa
tin project, located in SW Spain.


The resource estimate is being undertaken by SRK UK. The geological
interpretation of the Oropesa mineralized zones has been completed, and a number
of mineralized domains have been wireframed. A detailed review of the drilling
database, including assay accuracy and precision and bulk density analysis, has
been completed. Statistical and variographic analyses have also been done.


The wireframed mineralized zones have been interpreted in such a way as to be
consistent with the interpreted regional and local structural settings. During
the course of this work, it has become apparent that there are a considerable
number of high grade drill intercepts that are difficult to correlate between
drill holes and between drill sections along strike. In addition, the
variography of some of the mineralized domains as interpreted is relatively
poor. These characteristics, in addition to the known geological and structural
complexity of the tin mineralization at Oropesa, potentially indicate that the
current geological interpretation could be significantly improved.


As such, a program of focused infill drilling has commenced at Oropesa in an
attempt to achieve these objectives. The program comprises six holes totalling
approximately 1200m and is estimated to take approximately 6 to 8 weeks to
complete. The information obtained by this program will be included in an
updated interpretation which will be reconciled with the current resource
estimate.


The Company intends to release the results of the Oropesa resource estimate when
this work has been completed.


Assay and QA/QC Methodology for Oropesa Drill Core

All core produced is taken daily from each drill site to the Company's secure
facility in Fuente Obejuna, where it is logged by the Company's geologists. This
process takes place under the supervision of Qualified Person Victor Guerrero
Merino, Euro.Geol.


The core, usually of around one metre length, which is chosen by the Company's
geologists for assaying, is then cut in half either at the Company's own
facilities at Fuente Obejuna or at ALS Chemex's sample preparation facility in
Seville in southern Spain.


At the ALS Chemex facility, the cut core is logged into the in house LIMS
tracking system, after which each sample is prepared using procedure code 'Prep
31'. This procedure involves the drying, weighing and fine crushing to 70%
passing -2mm. A 250g split of the crushed material is then pulverised to greater
than 85% passing 75 microns. Samples are then shipped by bonded courier to
Vancouver for analysis.


In Vancouver, ALS Chemex procedure ME-XRF10 is used for tin analysis and
ME-ICP61 for multi-element (33) analysis. The ME-XRF10 procedure uses 0.9g of
calcined sample pulp, which is mixed with 4.5g of lithium tetraborate and 4.5g
of lithium metaborate. This mixture is then fused at 1,100 degrees C to produce
a flat molten disc, which is subsequently analysed by XRF spectrometry. ALS
Chemex analyses its own standard samples and blanks, plus duplicates, within
each set of samples provided by the Company. The Company has recently introduced
its own blanks and standards as a further means of checking the accuracy of the
assay results. One in every 15 samples analysed by ALS Chemex is then sent to
SGS's laboratories in Cornwall, UK, for check assaying for tin. The Company
keeps all its sample pulps and rejects in locked steel containers at its secure
storage facility in Fuente Obejuna.


The Company recently completed a new check assay program using five certified
laboratories. The pulp sample composites used had varying tin grades; the
accuracy of the results obtained was within acceptable parameters. 


Mr. Victor Guerrero Merino, an independent geological consultant and a Qualified
Person pursuant to NI 43-101, has reviewed and approved the technical
information in this news release on behalf of the Company.


Other Information

The Company is also pleased to announce that it has filed its first quarter
condensed interim unaudited financial statements and related management's
discussion and analysis for the three months ended June 30, 2012. Both are
available under the Company's profile on SEDAR at www.sedar.com and on the
Company's website at www.eurotin.ca.


Forward-Looking Statements

Results presented in this press release are exploratory in nature. Historical

to place undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements.


Forward-looking statements contained in this press release are based on a number
of assumptions that may prove to be incorrect, including, but not limited to:
timely implementation of anticipated drilling and exploration programs; the
successful completion of new development projects, planned expansions or other
projects within the timelines anticipated and at anticipated production levels;
the accuracy of reserve and resource estimates, grades, mine life and cash cost
estimates; whether mineral resources can be developed; title to mineral
properties; financing requirements, general market conditions, and the
uncertainty of access to additional capital; changes in the world-wide price of
mineral commodities; general economic conditions; and changes in laws, rules and
regulations applicable to the Company. In addition to being subject to a number
of assumptions, forward-looking statements in this press release involve known
and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause actual results
and developments to be materially different from those expressed or implied by
