Tartisan Resources Corp. Announces Private Placement and Property Acquisition

Toronto, Feb 7, 2014 - Tartisan Resources Corp. (CSE: TTC) ("Tartisan" or the "Company") announces the non-brokered private-placement offering of up to 3 million Units of the Company, at a price of $CDN 0.07 per Unit, for gross proceeds of up to $CDN 210,000 (the "Offering"). Each Unit will consist of one Tartisan common share and one common share-purchase warrant (the "Warrants"); each full Warrant will entitle the holder to purchase one Tartisan common share at a price of $CDN 0.14 for a period of 12 months after the closing of the Offering.

Net Proceeds from the Offering will be used to fund exploration of the Company's gold, silver and base metals projects in North-Central Perú, and for working capital purposes. The planned exploration work will include preparation for diamond drilling at La Victoria, the Company's wholly owned flagship project located in northern Ancash Department. Tartisan's land holdings are located within 50 km of several producing mines including: La Arena owned by Rio Alto Mining Ltd., Lagunas Norte (Alto Chicama) owned by Barrick Gold Corporation and Santa Rosa owned by Compañia Minera Aurífera Santa Rosa (COMARSA).

A finder's fee equal to a cash commission of 8% of the aggregate gross proceeds from the Units sold, plus finder's warrants equal to 8% of the aggregate number of Units sold, will compensate finders appointed by the Company to source subscriptions. All securities issued by the Offering will be subject to a hold period of four months plus one day from the date of issue. The Offering is subject to regulatory approval.

The Company is also pleased to report that it has acquired an additional mineral concession known as "Rufina". The Rufina concession is 100 ha in size and is located adjacent and to the western boundary of the Company's existing San Felipe 1 concession; this brings the total area of the Company's 100% owned and royalty-free mineral concessions to 3,480 ha.
