Esperanza Reports Cerro Jumil Drill Results

Esperanza Resources Corp. (TSX VENTURE:EPZ)(PINKSHEETS:ESPZF) is pleased to
report recent drill results from its Cerro Jumil gold project in Morelos,
Mexico. The reported results are primarily from in-fill drill holes designed to
upgrade previously reported inferred and indicated resources. Highlights of the
drill results are as follows:




--  Drill Hole DHE-12-96 intersected two separate intervals, one with 67.5
    meters containing 1.0 grams of gold per tonne and another interval
    containing 12 meters of 1.6 grams of gold per tonne.

--  Drill Hole DHE-12-105 intersected an interval of 105.5 meters containing
    1.1 grams of gold per tonne. 

--  Drill Hole DHE-12-107 intersected an interval of 148.5 meters containing
    0.72 grams of gold per tonne, including 18.0 meters containing 1.91
    grams of gold per tonne.

--  Drill Hole DHE-12-109 intersected an interval of 39.0 meters containing
    1.4 grams of gold per tonne, including 12.0 meters containing 2.98 grams
    of gold per tonne.

--  Drill Hole DHE-12-116 intersected an interval of 60.0 meters containing
    1.1 grams of gold per tonne. 

--  Drill Hole DHE-12-121 intersected two separate intervals, one with 33.0
    meters containing 1.1 grams of gold per tonne and another interval with
    124.5 meters containing 1.5 grams gold per tonne. 



All intervals are reported as down-hole lengths and are not corrected to true
widths for mineralized intervals. Complete results are in the accompanying table
and drill hole locations are shown on the accompanying map. A detailed drill
hole plan map can be found on the Company's website:
http://www.epzresources.com/cerrojumil_drillholelocationsdetail.php.


There are two drill rigs operating at the Cerro Jumil project. Current drilling
is focused on in-fill drilling, extension of the resource to the south west and
geotechnical sampling to support the feasibility study currently in process. 


The Company has engaged Riaan Herman Consulting of Pretoria, South Africa to
update the September 30, 2010 resource estimate for the Cerro Jumil project.
Results up to June 30, 2012 from over 22,000 meters of exploration drilling
occurring subsequent to the current resource will be included in the updated
resource. The new resource is expected to be completed during the third quarter.
