Puma Exploration (TSX VENTURE:PUM) is pleased to announce the discovery of a new
copper showing grading up-to 6.92% Cu located approximately 4.0 kilometers south
of the main Turgeon Cu-Zn deposit in New Brunswick. A team of two geologists
conducted prospecting and mapping on Turgeon and Turgeon South properties with
the objective to verify the first priority surface targets set by the company
Diagnos (TSX VENTURE:ADK) and defined by regional geochemical and geophysical
anomalies.


From the 234 samples collected, 32 samples show significant results and are
mainly correlated with surface targets set by Diagnos. Three (3) areas of
interest (see map attached) were defined, including a new copper showing from
which a total of 16 samples, with grades ranging from 0.2% to 6.9% Cu, were
collected.


The new copper showing is 50m long by 10m wide and located within the Fournier
Group hosting also the main Turgeon Cu-Zn Deposit. The Turgeon Cu-Zn Deposit
shows significant copper and zinc mineralization as drilled in hole FT11-04
grading 0.51% Cu and 0.31% Zn over 300.9 meters or in hole FT10-02 grading 1.13%
Cu and 0.71% Zn over 108.5 meters (see press release 21-02-2013).


The new mineralized zone is composed of quartz veins with copper sulphides in a
silicified gabbro. The best results obtained were as follows:




--  6.92 % Cu, 3.76%Cu, 3.28%Cu, 2.87%Cu, 2.78% Cu 1.86% Cu (6 samples)



"The discovery of a new Copper Showing in the same geological setting and only 4
kilometers away from the Main Turgeon Cu-Zn Deposit is very encouraging for
finding more Cu-Zn satellite deposits related to the same VMS system.", notes
Marcel Robillard, President of Puma Exploration.


The two (2) other areas of interest are located also within the Fournier Group
approximately 6 kilometers south of the main Turgeon Cu-Zn deposit and mainly
show silver-lead-zinc and gold mineralization.




--  Area 2: 143 g/t Ag, 3.92% Pb and 1.39% Zn (1 sample) 
--  Area 3: 0.21 g/t Au, 0.65% Cu (1 sample)



The discoveries were made using CARDS technology as targets generator. Puma is
planning in the vicinity of these discoveries trenching and stripping programs
to better delineate the zones and more prospecting on unexplored area and
targets are also planned.


About Turgeon

The Turgeon property is located only five kilometres south of the deepwater port
of Belledune, New Brunswick. The property is accessible by road all year round
and is intersected by a power line. The Turgeon property is 5,355 hectares and
is part of Puma's 13,093 hectares that is held in the Bathurst Mining Camp of
northern New Brunswick that is being actively explored.


The Turgeon copper deposit consists, so far, of four mineralized lenses with
high copper-zinc values, distributed over a length of 450 metres. Only two holes
have reached a vertical depth of 400 metres. The known mineralized zones have
thus not been tested to depth or laterally within the favourable horizons. Also,
a number of untested surface and borehole geophysical anomalies that are located
within the Turgeon area and are define as drill-ready targets.
