Whitemud Resources Provides Update on Recent Developments

/NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION TO UNITED STATES NEWSWIRE SERVICES OR FOR DISSEMINATION IN THE UNITED STATES/

CALGARY, Dec. 9 /CNW/ - Whitemud Resources Inc. ("Whitemud" or the "Company") (WMK - TSXV) provides an update on recent developments.

On December 6, 2010 the Alberta Securities Commission issued a cease trade order resulting from the Company not filing interim unaudited financial statements, interim management's discussion and analysis and certification of interim filings for the interim periods ended September 30, 2010.

In addition, the Company's trust company informed Whitemud that it has suspended all transfer agent and registrar services for the Corporation due to its failure to pay outstanding invoices.

With the limited cash available, the Company is currently not in a position to fund operational costs and meet obligations to regulators and its trust company. Whitemud continues to work with its bank towards a short-term financial solution.  Whitemud is also currently working on finding a buyer for the Company and/or a source of finance to recapitalize the Company.  In the meantime, the Company's bank has released funds necessary to hire some personnel back on a contract basis to provide necessary administration and security of the plant. 

Subsequent to the suspension of our operations on November 16, 2010 a significant sale of metakaolin was made to a concrete producer for a large potash mine project in Saskatchewan. Metakaolin provided unique enhancements to the concrete quality on the project, including increased strength development and improved durability.
