Montello Announces an Update on its Pincher Creek Asset

CALGARY, ALBERTA -- Montello Resources Ltd (TSX Venture NEX: MEO.P) is pleased to announce that an Alberta Limited Liability Partnership has completed the purchase of the majority interest in the Pincher Creek property from the previous operator and the transfer of operatorship to General Partner has been finalized.

Montello anticipates that this will allow the Pincher Creek property to be developed and brought into production during the 4th quarter of 2013. In addition, Montello anticipates receiving revenues during the same 4th quarter and expects further development of additional wells before the end of 2013.

As previously announced, Montello entered into a purchase and sale agreement on November 15, 2012 whereby the Company sold a 10% working interest in the Pincher Creek Project for $575,000 to a private company. The funds from the 10% sale will be used for ongoing operational costs, re-instatement costs and Montello's portion of costs related to building of the necessary pipeline to bring the 1-11 discovery well into production. Once that well is online, the operator will move on to the next location.

Montello would like to thank all stakeholders for their understanding and patience for such a long gap since our last news release. Management wanted to ensure certain key steps were actually finalized before making any premature announcements. Once again Montello thanks its shareholders for their patience and support through these difficult times.

ON BEHALF OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS

Forward-Looking Information

This document may contain "forward-looking information" within the meaning of Canadian securities legislation and "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 (collectively, "forward-looking statements"). These forward-looking statements are made as of the date of this document and Montello Resources Ltd. (the "Company") does not intend, and does not assume any obligation, to update these forward-looking statements, except as required under applicable securities legislation.

Forward-looking statements relate to future events or future performance and reflect Company management's expectations or beliefs regarding future events and include, but are not limited to, statements with respect to the estimation of mineral reserves and resources, the realization of mineral reserve estimates, the timing and amount of estimated future production, costs of production, capital expenditures, success of mining operations, environmental risks, unanticipated reclamation expenses, title disputes or claims and limitations on insurance coverage. In certain cases, forward-looking statements can be identified by the use of words such as "plans", "expects" or "does not expect", "is expected", "budget", "scheduled", "estimates", "forecasts", "intends", "anticipates" or "does not anticipate", or "believes", or variations of such words and phrases or statements that certain actions, events or results "may", "could", "would", "might" or "will be taken", "occur" or "be achieved" or the negative of these terms or comparable terminology. By their very nature forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause the actual results, performance or achievements of the Company to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. Such factors include, among others, risks related to actual results of current exploration activities; changes in project parameters as plans continue to be refined; future prices of resources; possible variations in ore reserves, grade or recovery rates; accidents, labour disputes and other risks of the mining industry; delays in obtaining governmental approvals or financing or in the completion of development or construction activities; as well as those factors detailed from time to time in the Company's interim and annual financial statements and management's discussion and analysis of those statements, all of which are filed and available for review on SEDAR at www.sedar.com. Although the Company has attempted to identify important factors that could cause actual actions, events or results to differ materially from those described in forward-looking statements, there may be other factors that cause actions, events or results not to be as anticipated, estimated or intended. There can be no assurance that forward-looking statements will prove to be accurate, as actual results and future events could differ materially from those anticipated in such statements.

Accordingly, readers should not place undue reliance on forward looking statements.
