GESPEG COPPER RESOURCES INC. (TSX VENTURE:GCR) (the "Company" or "Gespeg"),
further to its news release of May 16, 2013
(http://www.marketwire.com/press-release/gespeg-announces-private-placement-for-gross-proceeds-of-up-to-1000000-tsx-venture-gcr-1791895.htm),
Gespeg announces that it has completed the first tranche of its private
placement (the "Offering") and has raised gross proceeds of $302,500. The first
tranche closing consisted of 6,050,000 units (the "Units") at a price of $0.05
per Unit. Each Unit consists of one common share in the capital of the Company
(a "Share") and one-half of one share purchase warrant (a "Warrant"). Each full
Warrant will entitle the holder to purchase one Share at a price of $0.15
exercisable until February 21, 2015.


The Company can accelerate the expiry date of the Warrants to the date that is
30 days following the date the Company issues a news release announcing that the
published closing price of the Common Shares on the TSX Venture Exchange (the
"Exchange") has been equal to or greater than $0.20 for any ten consecutive
trading days after the hold period on the Common Shares has expired. Management
and the board of directors of the Company took up 50% of the first tranche
closing. The Company anticipates a second closing in September of 2013 (the
"Second Tranche").


Sylvain Laberge President and CEO stated:"We are pleased with the progression of
the financing to date as it will allow the Company to continue concentrating our
efforts on the exploration program that is currently proceeding on the Vortex
and In-between properties."


All securities issued under the Offering are subject to a statutory hold period
ending on December 22, 2013 in accordance with applicable Canadian securities
laws. The net proceeds from the Offering will be used by the Company to fund
exploration work on the Company's In-Between project, and for general and
administrative purposes. The Company also has the discretion to use a portion of
the net proceeds for future project acquisitions. The Second Tranche remains
subject to Exchange approval.


About Gespeg Copper Resources Inc.: Gespeg is an exploration company with a
focus on copper, especially in a grossly underexplored region "Gaspe, Quebec".
With a dedicated management team, the Company's goal is to create shareholder
wealth through the discovery of new deposits.
