Alder Resources Ltd. (TSX VENTURE:ALR) ("Alder" or the "Company") is pleased to
provide results from a new occurrence, the Tigre Negro Norte area, within the
Company's Rosita Project in northeast Nicaragua (Figure 1). Sampling has
returned 1.67 g/t Au over 17.6 metres (Figure 2). This new zone is open along
strike and to depth. The Tigre Negro Norte area is located 400 metres north and
along strike of the Tigre Negro Cu-Au-Ag prospect, which returned 1.76 g/t Au,
4.84 g/t Ag and 1.71% Cu over 12.0 metres in a reverse circulation drill hole.
It may also be related to the same structure set that hosts the Tipispan zone,
where trenching has returned up to 5.21% Cu, 4.40 g/t Au and 144.01 g/t Ag over
12.1 metres. Tigre Negro Norte results are summarized in Table 1 at the end of
this release.


Company President and CEO, Joseph Arengi, states: "Our ongoing exploration
efforts continue to expand the mineralization footprint at Rosita. It now
appears that the Tipispan, Tigre Negro Norte and Tigre Negro mineralized zones
can be linked to form an approximately two kilometre long, open ended
mineralized trend. Despite the current challenging market conditions, Alder
continues to add value to the highly prospective Rosita Project through diligent
and cost effective exploration, and when the timing is right, we will have
several high quality drill targets to pursue." 


These results further confirm the importance of northwest trending structures
which serve as conduits for significant base and precious metal mineralization.
This is evident now at Tigre Negro Norte, the gold zone along the west side of
the Santa Rita pit and the high grade copper-gold-silver zones in trenches at
Tipispan (Figure 1). 


Previous exploration at Tigre Negro Norte included two historic reverse
circulation holes (HRTN29 and 30) drilled 10 metres east of, and parallel to,
the zone - one vertical and the other at 155 degrees bearing. These holes
returned highly anomalous gold values of 0.21 g/t over 7.5 metres and 0.56 g/t
over 7.5 metres, respectively (Figure 2), which suggests the potential for a
larger system. These holes did not test the Tigre Negro Norte discovery. 


At Tigre Negro, 400 metres southeast of the Tigre Negro Norte zone, twelve
reverse circulation holes were drilled from 1997 to 1999. Two of these holes
returned up to 1.76 g/t Au (one sample which returned 16.97 g/t Au was cut to 10
g/t Au), 4.84 g/t Ag and 1.71% Cu over 12.0 metres and 0.95 g/t Au, 7.2 g/t Ag
and 0.73% Cu over 6.0 metres. 


Sampling was carried out as a series of 1 metre by 1 metre continuous panel
samples from a series of small miner workings. The average grade was calculated
from samples taken perpendicular to strike. Assay results from this new zone
indicate the mineralizing system is gold-only; silver, copper, lead and zinc
values are all low. This gold-only geochemical association is similar to that of
the northwest striking gold zone in the Santa Rita pit where an intercept of
29.54 g/t Au over 8.0 metres core length occurs. Silver and base metal values
are low in both cases.

Soil sampling has been carried out to the northwest of the Tigre Negro Norte
zone, along three lines over 250 metres, with a goal of extending the
mineralized trend to the northwest towards the Tipispan zone. Results are
pending.


Quality Assurance/Quality Control

Alder has implemented an industry standard Quality Assurance/Quality Control
program that includes the insertion of certified standards and blanks into the
sample stream. Samples were collected into heavy gauge plastic bags, sealed
on-site, then stored at Alder's Rosita field office until transported by company
or laboratory personnel to Inspectorate Exploration and Mining Services' sample
preparation facility in Managua. In Managua, pulps were prepared for shipping to
Inspectorate's Analytical laboratory in Reno, Nevada, where each sample was
analyzed via 1 assay-tonne fire assay for gold and 30 element ICP (Inductively
Coupled Plasma-atomic emission spectrometry) methods for copper, silver and 28
other elements. 


Qualified Person

Joseph Arengi, M.Sc., P.Geo., President and Chief Executive Officer of Alder and
a qualified person as defined by NI 43-101, has reviewed and approved the
scientific and technical content of this news release.


About Alder Resources Ltd.

Alder is a resource company focused on the development of gold and base metal
projects throughout the Americas. Alder's current high priority Cu-Au-Ag
porphyry target is the Rosita project in Nicaragua located 275 kilometres
northeast of Managua. The company has current Inferred mineral stock pile
resources of 7.95 million tonnes grading 0.62% Cu, 0.46 g/t Au and 9.21 g/t Ag
with numerous zones that have good near term potential to add to and enhance
these resources. See the technical report entitled "Rosita Cu-Au-Ag Project,
RAAN, Nicaragua, NI 43-101 Technical Report on Mineral Resource Estimate of
Rosita Stockpiles" effective as of May 8, 2012, which is available under the
Company's profile at www.sedar.com. Alder is also highly encouraged by recent
trench results that, in conjunction with previous drill results from the
Tipispan area, support management's belief of a large, untested,
copper-gold-silver porphyry/skarn system locally overlain by a high grade,
supergene enriched, oxide blanket.


In August 2011, Alder entered into an option agreement to acquire a 65% interest
in the Rosita D concession from Calibre Mining Corp. by issuing 1,000,000 shares
and incurring expenditures of $4,000,000 over four years. To date Alder has
incurred more than half of the $4,000,000 earn-in obligation.
