VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA — (Marketwired) — 08/12/13 — Cayden Resources Inc. (TSX VENTURE:CYD)(PINKSHEETS:CDKNF) (“Cayden” or the “Company”) announces the results from its thirteen hole core drilling program at the La Magnetita East target on its Morelos Sur Concession located in Guerrero State, Mexico (table below). Eleven of thirteen drill holes intercepted significantly anomalous skarn mineralization hosted in a contact zone between limestone and a large magnetic granodiorite stock (see Figure 1 for plan map, Figure 2 for cross-section, other anomalous intercepts are shown in Table 1).

The current program tested only a small section of the contact zone of one of two large granodiorite stocks which trend for another 2 km in a NNW direction. The program at La Magnetita was successful in finding significant intercepts of gold mineralization in a Guerrero Gold Belt geologic setting similar to that of the nearby Los Filos (Goldcorp) and Morelos (Torex) gold deposits.

Cayden director David M. Jones, M.Sc (Geo), who has over 20 years’ experience in the Guerrero Gold Belt and who is credited with the discovery of Goldcorp’s Los Filos deposit, commented, “The geologic setting and style of skarn alteration associated with the gold mineralization identified through this program is characteristic of what is typically seen in the Guerrero Gold Belt. The La Magnetita target is important owing to the similarity of its geologic, geochemical, and geophysical expression with that of the nearby deposits.”

The Company’s technical team will be designing a follow-up program to further test the granodiorite/ limestone contact at La Magnetita.

Cayden CEO Ivan Bebek commented, “The La Magnetita skarn target is significant and clearly warrants a further concerted exploration effort. The drill results demonstrate the presence of gold mineralization and have only tested a small portion of a very large target. The Morelos Sur property is a great complement to our El Barqueno project where we have recently discovered impressive gold values on surface over an 8 km strike length.”

David Hladky, P. Geo. is the Qualified Person with respect to NI 43-101 at Morelos Sur. All core is drilled at HQ or NQ diameter and is sawed or split into equal halves on site. All samples are assayed using standard 30 gram fire assay with atomic absorption finish by Acme Labs in Vancouver, Canada. QA/QC programs using internal standard samples, field and lab duplicates, re-assays, and blanks indicate good accuracy and precision in a large majority of standards assayed. The Company has yet to determine the true width of mineralization for each hole.

On Behalf of the Board, Ivan Bebek, President and CEO
