Golconda Resources Ltd. (the "Corporation" or "Golconda") (News - Market indicators) is pleased to announce that further to its press release dated July 31, 2012, in accordance with the terms of the joint venture agreement (the "JV Agreement") between the Corporation, a Calgary-based private oil and gas company and Tri-Rez Ebay Energy Ltd. ("TRE") (collectively, the "Farmees") with respect to oil and gas exploration and development (the "Joint Venture"), TRE has acquired from Indian Oil and Gas Canada ("IOGC") a lease (the "Lease") covering approximately 1,600 acres of Cold Lake First Nation lands (the "Lands"). 

Pursuant to the JV Agreement, the Farmees have agreed to a ten well working program over a period of three years, which shall consist of the Farmees drilling a minimum of three wells prior to October 1, 2013, a minimum of four additional wells prior to October 1, 2014 and a minimum of three additional wells prior to October 1, 2015. The Farmees will each earn a 25% working interest in each successfully drilled or abandoned well.

Golconda is also pleased to announce that it has entered into the previously announced senior secured credit facility (the "Facility") in the maximum amount of $5 million with First "M" Investments Ltd. The Corporation has determined that there are exemptions available from the various requirements of TSXV Policy 5.9 and Multilateral Instrument 61-101 for the Facility (Formal Valuation - Issuer Not Listed on Specified Markets; Minority Approval - Loan to Issuer, No Equity or Voting Component).

The Facility has a three year term and bears interest at the rate of 12% per annum, calculated annually in arrears, commencing on the date of the initial drawdown and shall be due and payable on a quarterly basis with the first interest payment due six months after the date of the initial drawdown. As security for the Facility, Golconda granted the lender a first charge against Golconda's assets to rank pari passu with the first charge held by Lyncorp International Corp. 

The Facility will be used by Golconda for general working capital purposes and to fund its participation in the Joint Venture. The previously announced unsecured loans advanced to Golconda by First "M" Investments Ltd. in the aggregate amount of $600,000 will be converted into borrowed amounts under the Facility. 

The TSX Venture Exchange has granted the Corporation its final approval for both the Joint Venture and the Facility.
