MONTREAL, Aug. 24, 2011 /PRNewswire/ – Colt Resources Inc. (“Colt” or
the “Company”) (TSXV: GTP) (FRA: P01) (OTCQX: COLTF) is very pleased to
announce that one of its Portuguese wholly owned subsidiaries has
acquired through the purchase of a private Portuguese limited company
key surface rights covering approximately 140 hectares at its Tabuaço
(São Pedro das Águias) tungsten project, located in the company’s
Armamar‐Meda concession in northern Portugal.

“The acquisition of these surface rights not only provides Colt with
unhindered access to the ground for exploration but more importantly,
it is a crucial step for the next stages of the development of our
Tabuaço tungsten project which we will be fast-tracking in the months
ahead.” stated Nikolas Perrault, President and CEO.

On August 24, 2011, the Company executed a purchase and sale agreement
and has acquired 100% of the shares of Q.S.P.A, a Portuguese sole
proprietorship limited company consisting of surface rights, an
operational business and real estate in an arm’s length transaction for
a total acquisition cost of 10M Euros. The surface rights are the main
asset and the intrinsic value of the transaction as it is key to the
Company’s planned development of this tungsten mining project. The
operational business of Q.S.P.A. is a registered as an Oporto and Douro
wine producer, trader, importer/exporter and bottler. Q.S.P.A was put
up for sale about one year ago. The value of Q.S.P.A. is real estate
consisting of land, buildings (the monastery, the winery and the
cellar), valued independently for an aggregate of 4.5M Euros as well as
inventories valued at 2.5M Euros. Q.S.P.A.’s unaudited statements as of
May 31, 2011, show total assets of 12.7M Euros and total liabilities of
approximately 8.9M Euros, of which 8.1M Euros is a shareholder loan and
which Colt’s wholly owned subsidiary will become the beneficiary.
Unaudited revenues and losses for the last fiscal year are 189K and 67K
Euros
respectively and for the period ending May 31, 2011 revenues are
1K Euros with losses of 274K Euros. The Company will maintain the
seasonal employment of the business but will subcontract out the
management.

The Company will be paying a combination of cash and shares for these
assets. The cash component consists of 5M Euros of which 3M Euros have
been paid on closing. The balance of 2M Euros will be paid, in two
instalments of 1M Euros, on the first and second year anniversary of
the acquisition. The Company has also issued 5M restricted common
shares to the seller, with each 1M common shares to become freely
tradable on the date of each anniversary of the date of closing for the
next five consecutive years. The Company has also issued 5M zero
dividend, convertible preferred shares to the seller. Each zero
dividend, convertible preferred share has a par value €0.50, a five
year term. The preferred shares are convertible at the option of the
holder at any time during the five year term, in whole or in part, into
common shares of Colt at €0.57 per share, resulting in a potential
issuance of an additional 4,385,965 common shares. The convertible
preferred shares are also redeemable by Colt at its option on thirty
day notice at €0.50 per share, in whole or in part, at any time during
the five year term. If converted into common shares, the shares will be
subject to the same five year restrictions as the common shares issued
as part of this transaction. Upon closing the transaction, the seller
has not become an insider of the Company.

The Company received independent evaluations of the business from
FundBox SGFII S.A., Mr. Hugo de Oliveira e Silva and Taxlibris
Contabilidade e Consultoria, dated May 2011, July 18, 2011 and July 22,
2011
respectively.
