Creston Moly Corp. (“Creston” or the Company”) (TSX-V: CMS) announced today that ISS Proxy Advisory Services (“IIS”) and Glass, Lewis & Co., LLC (“Glass Lewis”), the two leading independent proxy research and advisory firms, have published reports recommending that Creston shareholders (“Shareholders”) vote FOR the proposed arrangement agreement to which Mercator Minerals Ltd. (“Mercator”) will acquire all issued and outstanding common shares of Creston by way of a plan of arrangement (the “Arrangement”).

The board of directors of Creston, after receiving the recommendation of its special committee and consultation with its financial and legal advisors, has unanimously determined that the proposed transaction is in the best interests of Creston, is fair to the shareholders of Creston, and to recommend that shareholders of Creston vote in favour of the proposed transaction. BMO Capital Markets, financial advisor to Creston and its board of directors, has provided an opinion to the effect that the consideration to be received by shareholders of Creston is fair, from a financial point of view, to shareholders of Creston.
Shareholders are encouraged to review the Management Information Circular dated May 9, 2011, which provides a detailed discussion of the Arrangement and reasons behind the board of directors’ unanimous recommendation that shareholders vote FOR the Arrangement. If approved by Shareholders the proposed transaction is expected to become effective on or about June 22, 2011.
Creston has scheduled a special meeting of shareholders (the “Meeting”) to vote on the arrangement agreement to be held at 10:00 am on June 14, 2011 at the XChange Conference Centre, 2nd Floor, 888 Dunsmuir Street, Vancouver British Columbia, Canada.
