Coeur d'Alene, Idaho - November 25, 2014 - Timberline Resources Corporation (NYSE MKT: TLR; TSX-V: TBR) ("Timberline" or the "Company") today announced that it has received a letter from the NYSE MKT (the "Exchange") advising the Company that Timberline has regained compliance with the NYSE MKT continued listing standards. Specifically, the Company has regained compliance with respect to Sections 1003(a)(iv) and 1003(f)(v) of the NYSE MKT Company Guide referenced in letters from the Exchange dated February 6, 2014, and May 19, 2014.
