Starfield Resource Inc. Summarizes 2011 Exploration Results At Ferguson Lake

TORONTO, Nov. 10, 2011 /CNW/ - Starfield Resources Inc. ('Starfield', 'the Company') today announced details of its 2011 exploration drill program atthe Company's Ferguson Lake project in Nunavut.

The 2011 program, which began in July and was completed during the first week of September, had the following three objectives:

1) Further evaluate and better define the strong massive sulphide mineralization within the West zone.

2) Evaluate a strong gossan possessing anomalous copper in rock chip geochemical samples that is related to a strong airborne conductivity anomaly located southwest of the 119 Zone Extension.

3) Attempt to extend strong, but deep (greater than 1,000 meters) massive sulphide mineralization in the 119 Zone Extension southwestward from hole FL04-174.

During the 2011 program, three holes totaling 1,866 meters (6,122 feet) were completed.

Drill hole FL11-430, which was drilled 30 meters east of FL06-251, was designed to further evaluate and better define massive sulphide mineralization in the western part of the West Zone. This hole, which was drilled southward at -64 degrees to a final depth of 215 meters (705 feet), intersected three closely spaced massive sulphide lenses. The assay summary for this hole appears in the table on the following page.

Drill hole FL11-431, which is located southwest of the 119 Zone Extension, was drilled to evaluate a strong ENE trending, steeply north dipping gossanous zone, possessing weak base metal values in surface rock chip samples, that is situated within a broad airborne conductivity anomaly. This hole, which was drilled southward at -57 degrees to a final depth of 422 meters (1,384 feet), intersected a broad zone of disseminated pyrite and pyrrhotite and a bleached, silicified zone containing spotty pyrite and chalcopyrite at 387.9 meters. This 3.91meter wide zone contained copper values up to 631ppm.

Drill hole FL11-432, which is located on the 119 Zone Extension approximately 350 meters southwest of hole FL04-174, was drilled in an attempt to extend the deep massive sulphide mineralization southwestward. This hole, which was drilled southeastward at a -64 degree inclination to a final depth of 1,229 meters (4,032 feet), intersected five lenses of sub-massive to massive sulphide mineralization between the depths of 1096.49 meters (3,597.4 feet) and 1,126.09 meters (3,694.5 feet). Of these, four are considered significant and their assays are reported in the table below.

Ray Irwin, Vice President of Exploration, said: 'We are very excited with the results of our 2011 summer drilling program, which confirmed and better defined the massive sulphide mineralization in a portion of the West Zone, and extended the deep massive sulphide mineralization comprising the 119 Zone Extension southwestward by 350 meters.'

A more detailed summary of the significant assay results for the 2011 Ferguson Lake drill program can be found in the table below.

The samples were initially shipped to ALS Chemex Laboratory in Yellowknife, NWT where they underwent sample preparation. A 1,000 g sample was then shipped to ALS Chemex Laboratory in Vancouver, BC for multi-element analysis. Reject material for a minimum of every 10th sample has been sent to SGS Laboratory in Vancouver, BC for multi-element check assays, and all mineralized intervals will be checked by SGS Laboratories in Vancouver.

The Company is still awaiting full assay results from its 2011 drill program at its Stillwater property in Montana.
