As was previously disclosed by the Company in a Form 8-K filed on March 9, 2012 and announced in a separate press release, a majority of the Company's stockholders eligible to vote approved and authorized the Company's Board of Directors of the Company to:

1.) Implement a 10:1 reverse split on all of the common shares of Mustang;

2.) Change the name of the Company to Dakota Territory Resource Corp, and apply for a new ticker symbol; and

3.) Acquire all of the issued and outstanding common shares of North Homestake Mining Company (North Homestake), a Nevada Corporation, subject to the terms and conditions of a Material Definitive Agreement between the Company and North Homestake dated March 8th, 2012, or as amended by the Company and North Homestake prior to closing, which is now estimated for April 30, 2012, or as soon as is legally practicable thereafter, taking into consideration regulatory review and approval of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority.

The Company announced yesterday in its filing of Form 8-K on April 16, 2012 to notify the Commission that prior to filing Form 14C with the Commission concerning the name change and reverse split of the Company's stock agreed to in the Material Definitive Agreement, the Company would first complete its annual financial audit and file its annual report on Form 10-K with the Commission for the year ended March 31, 2012.

Richard Bachman, President and Director of Mustang, commented, "Although this will result in a small delay with the Material Definitive Agreement concerning North Homestake, completing our annual audit and annual report will provide current information to the Commission, FINRA, our shareholders and the public relevant to our Form 14C Proxy filing with the Commission."

The Company also announced today in its Form 8-K filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission that the delay does not impact the Material Definitive Agreement between the Registrant and North Homestake, and the parties are working consistent with good faith and fair dealing to insure regulatory compliance.
