Astur Gold Announces Change of Year End

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA, Apr 18, 2012 (Marketwire via COMTEX) -- Astur Gold Corp. (TSX VENTURE:AST)(FRANKFURT:CDC) ("Astur Gold" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that it is changing its year end from November 30 to December 31. The reason for the change is that Astur Gold's wholly-owned Spanish subsidiary, Exploraciones Minera del Cantabrico S.A. ("EMC"), has a year end of December 31 as required by the laws of Spain. Astur Gold wants to bring its financial year end in line with that of EMC to simplify accounting and consolidated company reporting and allow Astur Gold to save both time and money. Accordingly, Astur Gold's transition year will be the thirteen months ended December 31, 2012 and its new financial year will be the twelve months ended December 31, 2013.


The following table sets forth the length and ending date of the periods, including the comparative periods, of each Interim Financial Report and the Annual Financial Statements to be filed for Astur Gold's transition year and its new financial year: --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Compar- Compar- Compar- Compar- ative ative ative ative Interim Annual Annual Interim Period Finan- Finan- Period to cial cial to Interim Interim State- State- Interim Interim Periods Periods ments ments Periods Periods for in to New to New for in New New Transi- Transi- Finan- Finan- Transi- Transi- Finan- Finan- tion tion cial cial tion tion cial cial Year Year Year Year Year Year Year Year --------------------------------------------------------------------------- 13 12 12/31/ 13 4 3 3 4 months months 2013 months months months months months ended ended ended ended ended ended ended 12/31/ 11/30/ 12/31/ 3/31/ 2/28/ 3/31/ 3/31/ 2012 2011 2012 2012 2011 2013 2012 7 6 6 7 months months months months ended ended ended ended 6/30/ 5/31/ 6/30/ 6/30/ 2012 2011 2013 2012 10 9 9 10 months months months months ended ended ended ended 9/30/ 8/31/ 9/30/ 9/30/ 2012 2011 2013 2012 --------------------------------------------------------------------------- The filing deadlines for the Annual Financial Statements and Interim Financial Reports for Astur Gold's transition year are as follows: a.
