GESPEG COPPER RESOURCES INC. (TSX VENTURE:GCR) (the "Company" or "Gespeg") is
pleased to announce that it has entered into an option agreement (the "Option
Agreement") with Mr. Daniel Lepage and Mr. Pierre Ross, both arm's length
parties to the Company (together the "Optionors" and individually an
"Optionor"), to acquire a 100% undivided interest to 52 mineral claims on the
South portion of the Gaspe Peninsula near the Municipality of Port Daniel and
comprising approximately 3,000 hectares or 30 sq/km (the "Property"). 


Under the terms of the Option Agreement, Gespeg has the option to acquire the
Property by paying the Optionors the following:




1.  an aggregate cash payment of $3,000 ($1,500 to each Optionor) due at
    signing of the Option Agreement (satisfied); 
    
2.  500,000 common shares of Gespeg to the Optionors (250,000 common shares
    to each Optionor) at the anniversary date of the Option Agreement in
    each of 2014 through 2017 for an aggregate of 2,000,000 common shares
    (1,000,000 common shares to each Optionor); and 
    
3.  a 2% net smelter royalty ("NSR") (payable 1% to each Optionor). The NSR
    can be reduced by 1% with the payment of $1,000,000 ($500,000 to each
    Optionor). 



Mr. Sylvain Laberge, President & CEO of Gespeg, remarks "We are pleased to add
this property to our portfolio. It furthers our mandate of expanding our
position in prospective properties in the underexplored Gaspe Peninsula region" 


After a strategic review of the Company's properties and in order to more
effectively facilitate our exploration programs, the Company dropped 576 claims
from the In-between project. These claims showed no priority targets in the 2012
geophysical survey. The Company has divided the remaining In-Between project
properties in 4 blocks, including:




1.  The Wares Block (21 Claims) 
    
2.  The Landry Block (39 Claims) 
    
3.  The MacDonald Block (5 Claims) 
    
4.  The MacNeill Block (261 Claims) 



Additionally, 40 claims situated south of the old Gaspe Copper Mine in
Murdochville, were added during summer and will be referred to as the Jean
Project, as well 17 claims South West of the Vortex Project out of which we
announce in June 2012 29 meters @ 0.94% Cu will be grouped and referred to as
Project B-O.


The Option Agreement is subject to the approval of the TSX Venture Exchange.
