ABOUT TORCH RIVER RESOURCES

Torch is a publicly traded junior mining exploration company with a number of
mining claims. The Walker property consists of 4 claims covering the past mine
and 11 claims covering interesting geological context for more graphite
mineralization in the region around the deposit, which is located 40 km
north-east of Ottawa. The Mount Copeland molybdenum deposit lies within
metamorphic rocks flanking the southern margin of Frenchman Cap Dome, 32
kilometers northwest of Revelstoke, British Columbia (the "Mount Copeland
Property"). The Fort-Eden copper property is comprised of 18 mineral tenures
that total 2,828.6 hectares in area. The mineral claims are located 100 km west
of Fort St. James, BC (the "Fort Eden Property"). The Red Bird deposit is
comprised of three zones of molybdenum concentration referred to as the Main,
Southeast and Southwest zones within a property totaling 1,836 ha (4,400 acres)
and is located 133 km southwest of Burns Lake and 105 km north of Bella Coola
(the "Red Bird Property"). The Company plans to divest (the "Divestitures") each
of the Mount Copeland Property, the Fort Eden Property and the Red Bird Property
through a sale or joint venture, thus allowing it to focus on building a
graphite mining company. The Company also intends to move forward with the
proposed merger with Plumbago, further details of which can be found in our
recent news release dated July 25, 2013. On August 14, 2013 the Company
announced that it has entered into a non-arm's length non-binding agreement to
acquire new lump graphite properties in Quebec (the "Wallingford and Jovite
Acquisitions").


Neither TSX Venture Exchange nor its Regulation Services Provider (as that term
is defined in the policies of the TSX Venture Exchange) accepts responsibility
for the adequacy or accuracy of this release.
