Feb 13, 2013

MONTRÉAL, QUÉBEC–(Marketwire – Feb. 13, 2013) – BOWMORE Exploration Ltd. (the “Company” or “Bowmore”) (TSX VENTURE:BOW)(FRANKFURT:0B5) is pleased to announce that it has signed a Letter Of Intent (the “LOI”) to acquire 100% of the La Scie Gold Property (the “Property”), located in Newfoundland, Canada from Mr. Jason Burton, prospector. The LOI states that a formal Option Agreement (the “Agreement”) is to be entered into on or before March 15^th, 2013.

The Property is composed of 60 claims covering over 1,500 hectares and is located along the eastern-most extent of the Baie Verte Peninsula, roughly 45 km east of the town of Baie Verte in the White Bay South District. Bowmore collected 43 rock samples on the Western and the Central blocks of the Property as part of due diligence sampling of recently discovered gold showings by Mr. Burton, and obtained values of up to 56.5 g/t Au from outcropping quartz veins. The La Scie Gold Property has never been the subject of a systematic exploration program. The Baie Verte Peninsula, however, has long been the focus of intermittent mining and exploration for copper and gold dating back to the 1850’s.

Bowmore has also claimed an additional 395 claims covering 9,875 hectares (the “Area of Interest”) surrounding the La Scie Gold Property and covering the eastern extremity of the Baie Verte peninsula, for a total land package of 11,375 hectares or 113.75 km².
