Phil Van Angeren, P.Geo. Retained as Consultant for Vianey Mine Project

Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada/ December 10, 2012/ - Lucky Minerals Inc. ("Lucky Minerals" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that Phil Van Angeren, a registered Professional Geologist with APEGA, has been retained as a geological consultant to the Company for the Vianey Mine project.

Mr. Van Angeren has over 30 years of experience in the precious and base metal exploration industry and has extensive consulting experience with junior, mid-tier and major mining companies worldwide.

Mr. Van Angeren specializes in the management of resources-related projects. His expertise includes the design, implementation, supervision and analysis of programs ranging from grassroots exploration through to advanced deposit delineation.

The Vianey Mine project is situated within the prolific Guerrero Gold Belt in Guerrero State, Mexico, and approximately 250km south of Mexico City. The project covers 5,022 hectares (approximately 12,400 acres) in two concessions; the Vianey Mine and the El Jabali concession. The Vianey Mine is 44Ha in size and is situated within the eastern portion of the Morelos Project owned by Torex Gold Resources Inc. ("Torex"). Morelos hosts Torex's El Limon gold skarn resource. The Vianey Mine was put into production in 1974 by Compania Minera de Chilpancingo S.A. and was in operation on a small scale until 1996. The El Jabali concession is 4978Ha in size, and adjoins the eastern edge of the Torex concession.

Polymetallic silver mineralization at the Vianey Mine includes sulphide veins, breccias and mantos with local concentrations of gold and copper. Massive sulphide veins are localized along NW-trending fault zones, whereas mantos occur as sulfide concentrations with calcite, gypsum and quartz between some bedding planes in limestone. Two major breccia zones have been identified in the limestone. These breccias are associated with calcite-gypsum-quartz alteration and significant amounts of silver mineralization.

A preliminary resource calculation completed by Robex Resources Inc. in 1997, states a total in all categories of 345,020 metric tonnes grading 2.13% lead, 3.66% zinc and 269 grams of silver per tonne. These data are categorized as historical resource estimates under National Instrument 43-101, and have not been sufficiently verified by a qualified person to be classified as current mineral resources. Lucky Minerals Inc. is not treating these historical estimates as current resource estimates and therefore, these historical estimates should not be relied upon.


Phil Van Angeren, P. Geo., a Qualified Person as defined by NI 43-101 is responsible for the technical information contained in this release.


Lucky Minerals is a mineral exploration company with two projects, the Parnes Lake Gold Project located 16 km south of the town of Sioux Lookout, Ontario and close proximity to Treasury Metals Goliath Gold deposit, the property consists of 13 unpatented mining claims comprising 139 units totaling 2229 hectares; and the Vianey Mine Project in the prolific Guerrero Gold belt, with close proximity to both Torex and Goldcorp Inc.'s Los Fibos Mine.
