--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Vancouver, B.C. -- Starcore International Mines Ltd. (the "Company") is debt-free and now owns the San Martin gold mine free and clear. The Company paid off the amount owing of $3,681,119.48 on the credit facility extended to it by Sprott Resource Lending in May, 2012, rendering the Company free of debt. (See news releases of May 10 and May 15, 2012.)
"We now own the San Martin Mine, free and clear of any encumbrances," said Robert Eadie, President & CEO of the Company. "We retired all of the debt we incurred to acquire the Mine, and we did this just six months outside of the original business plan we formulated in 2007," continued Eadie. "Paying off the debt in an environment marked by economic strains and severe market deterioration is a tremendous achievement. What we have accomplished is the sum of everyone's efforts, from our Board of Directors and management, to our technical advisors and all of our employees at head office and the minesite. We hope our shareholders will recognize this milestone as a reflection of our focus and commitment."
