VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwire - Nov. 12, 2009) - Central Resources Corp., (TSX VENTURE:CBC) ("Central" or the "Company") is pleased to announce the commencement of a drill program on the Newman Todd property located in the Red Lake Gold Camp in Northwestern Ontario. Previous work completed by Redstar Gold Corp. (TSX VENTURE:RGC) ("Redstar") on the Newman Todd property outlined gold mineralization within a silicified breccia zone that has been traced for at least two kilometres. The large geological structure contains steeply dipping high-grade gold veins. The focus of the 1,200 meter drill program will be to further test this geological structure. Central is joint-operator with Redstar on the project and has an option to earn up to a 60% interest in the property under the terms announced October 05, 2009.

The Newman Todd property is comprised of 13 patented claims totalling 195 hectares and is situated 35 kilometres west of the town of Red Lake, Ontario. The property has seen intermittent exploration since the late 1920s including geophysical surveys, geological mapping, geochemical surveys, trenching, and several small drill programs. This past work, though limited in scope, has identified fifteen gold occurrences, as documented with the Ontario MNDM, and defined alteration and deformation similar to those reported with gold mineralization at the major Red Lake mines. As many as seven gold prospects with small-scale underground development and mine workings are located on nearby claims within five kilometres of the property boundary. These include the Cole Gold Mine, West Red Lake Mine, Miles Red Lake Prospect, May-Spiers Prospect, Mt. Jamie Mine, Rowan Gold Mine, and Red Summit Mine.

Since 2002, Redstar has advanced the property through exploration including prospecting, structural analysis, airborne magnetic and EM surveys, and a Titan MT/DCIP survey. Exploration from 2005 to 2008 consisted of a seventeen hole (4,644 metre) drill program. Sixteen of the holes intersected wide zones of breccia with anomalous to locally high-grade gold mineralization, including up to 69.02 g/t over 1.0 metre within a 3.0 metre interval grading 24.89 g/t. A new gold bearing trend, which can be traced for the entire length of the property has been identified and is defined by wide zones of brecciation and strong carbonate alteration with zones of intense silicification and local high grade gold mineralization.
