Evrim Resources Corp.: Inmet Mining Options Cardelena Project in Sonora, Mexico

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwire - June 5, 2012) - Evrim Resources Corp. (TSX VENTURE:EVM) ("Evrim" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has signed an option agreement (the "Agreement") with Inmet Mining Corporation ("Inmet") on the Company's Cardeleña copper porphyry project in Sonora, Mexico. Inmet may acquire a 60% interest by conducting C$4,000,000 in exploration and making cash payments totalling C$80,000 over a six-year period.

About the Cardeleña Project

The Cardeleña project covers 29 square kilometres of prospective ground immediately west of the Adriana system that is currently being explored by Inmet Mining on the Company's Suaqui Verde project. The geology underlying Cardeleña consists of Cretaceous andesite volcanic centres intruded by Laramide age equivalent rocks prospective for copper porphyry systems, and covers a fault bounded basin filled with post Laramide aged volcanic rocks and gravels. Exploration of this basin for porphyry copper systems beneath the post-mineral cover, as well as additional work at the Adriana system, will form an important component of the exploration strategy at Cardeleña.

"Exploration work on Cardeleña will be done in conjunction with the work planned on Suaqui Verde in 2012," commented Paddy Nicol, President and CEO of Evrim. "The geochemical and geophysical work, and drilling completed in 2011 and early 2012 provide a solid foundation to launch the next series of exploration initiatives for both projects. Including our other outstanding option agreements with Inmet and Vale (Exploration) Canada Ltd., Evrim now has four active partnerships in the Sonora Copper Porphyry Belt, and an ongoing exploration alliance with Newmont (Exploration) Ltd. in the Trans Mexican Volcanic Belt."
