Acacia Property Drill Results
Vancouver, British Columbia - August 24, 2012. Tasca Resources Ltd. (TSXV-TAC) (the "Company") is pleased to announce r
--->esults from the 2012 summer exploration program on its Acacia Property located 45 km north of Kamloops in central Britis
--->h Columbia.
The program consisted of a total of 616 m of diamond drilling in 6 holes from 3 separate pad locations. All 3 pads were
--->located within the Acacia Zone in the southwest region of the property. Soil sampling and prospecting was also complete
--->d during the 2012 program.

The 2012 program represents the first drill testing of the Acacia Zone. Although initial drilling of the Acacia zone int
--->ercepted sub-economic mineralization, sulphides were encountered in the majority of holes drilled. The company is also
--->encouraged by the degree and extent of alteration found, including chlorite, epidote, silica and sericite, which are all
---> typical of Volcanogenic Massive Sulphide (VMS) deposits.
Property Background
The Acacia property is considered to have good potential for hosting Volcanogenic Massive Sulphide (VMS) deposits. These
---> deposits typically contain both base and precious metals, and occur in clusters and/or stacked lenses. The property cov
--->ers a stratigraphic assemblage which hosts a number of nearby past-producing base and precious-metal deposits including
--->the Samatosum, Rea Gold, and Homestake mines.
Previous operators on the Acacia property have reported diamond drilling results including 10.6 g/t Au, 335.3 g/t Ag , 3
--->.13 % Zn, 2.74% Pb, and 0.55% Cu over 2.37m at the Twin Mountain occurrence, which also remains a prospective area of th
--->e property.
QAQC & Qualified Person
Tim Termuende, P.Geo., is a Qualified Person as defined by National Instrument 43-101 and has reviewed and approved the
--->technical information in this release. Drill core analysis was conducted by Inspectorate Exploration & Mining Services o
--->f Richmond, B.C. The Company has implemented a quality assurance and quality control program to ensure that the sampling
