Windstorm Resources Announces Exploration Program Underway on Caldera Gold Project, Mexico

Windstorm Resources Announces Exploration Program Underway on Caldera Gold Project, Mexico

Windstorm Resources Inc. (TSX-V: WSR, "Windstorm" or "the Company") is pleased to announce that a surface exploration program is underway on its Caldera high sulphidation epithermal gold project located in Puebla State, Mexico. The Caldera project is located 10 km from Almaden Minerals Ltd.'s (AMEX:AAU) (TSX:AMM) (TSX-V: AMM, "Almaden") new Ixtaca Zone discovery on its Tuligtic property. The Caldera property also has similarities to Almaden's Caballo Blanco property, located 150 km to the east and under option to Goldgroup Mining Inc. (TSX:GGA) (OOTC:GGAZF) , where a 30,000 m drill program is currently underway.

The Caldera exploration program involves geological mapping, a soil geochemical survey and 20 km of Induced Polarization geophysical surveying. This work will focus on the North and Central zone targets, where previous work has identified coincident anomalous geochemistry, chargeability and resistivity anomalies within a large zone of intense hydrothermal alteration. Permits are already in place for a Phase I drill program planned for early in 2011.

The road accessible Caldera project was discovered by Almaden in 2007 and lies at the eastern end of the Trans Mexican Volcanic Belt. The property covers an 8km by 2km zone of intense acid sulphate alteration, including zones of massive to vuggy silica, quartz-alunite and kaolinite that appears to represent the very top levels of a well-preserved high sulphidation epithermal precious metal system. Rock samples taken to date in areas of acid sulphate alteration have returned values ranging from below detection to 40 ppb gold with elevated arsenic and mercury values. Work to date by Almaden has included preliminary geological and alteration mapping, soil and rock sampling and an induced polarization geophysical survey. High priority target areas are characterized by a combination of intense alteration, anomalous precious metal and pathfinder element geochemistry and high resistivity.

Windstorm has the right to earn up to a 60% interest in the Caldera project from Almaden by issuing 1,000,000 shares and completing $5,000,000 in exploration work over six years. Of the work requirement, $150,000 is a firm commitment to be spent in the first year of the agreement.
