SANTIAGO, Chile, Oct. 26, 2012 /PRNewswire via COMTEX/ -- White Mountain Titanium Corporation ("White Mountain" or the "Company") (OTC Bulletin Board: WMTM) reports that its geological and in-house engineering teams have prepared two detailed drill programs for the Cerro Blanco project totalling approximately 9,200 metres. A 5,200 metre in-fill and step out drill program has been prepared for the Las Carolinas and La Cantera prospects with the objective of expanding the overall project resource base and increasing resources falling within a measured and indicated classification. In addition, a 4,000 metre exploratory drill program has been prepared to follow up on high grade surface sampling and trenching results at four newly identified prospects - Hippo Ear, Algadon, Quartz Creek and Honorio's Creek - as well as the previously known but undrilled Chascones prospect.

All seven prospects are located within the northern portion of the Cerro Blanco project, along a strike length of approximately 4 kilometres. Drilling is expected to commence on the Las Carolinas and La Cantera prospects in early January with both drill programs expected to be completed by the end of May, 2013.
