TORONTO, Oct. 11, 2011 /CNW/ - Aldridge Minerals Inc.

('Aldridge' or the 'Company') is pleased to announce partial results from its summer infill diamond drill program, which was conducted to obtain material for metallurgical testing.  A total of 30 metallurgical holes have been completed and are being shipped to SGS Laboratories in the UK for a variability analysis as well as further crushing, grinding and floatation test work as part of the Company's feasibility study.  Aldridge is very pleased with the results as they continue to confirm that higher than resource grade zones can be found within the Yenipazar deposit.  Additionally, several of the drill holes show levels of gold and silver much greater than were encountered in the RC drilling done for the resource calculation as reported in the Company's Preliminary Economic Assessment (the 'PEA') (see press release dated December 20, 2010. The PEA is available at www.sedar.com).  Hole YPD-16 cut over 50 metres grading almost 7.0 g/t gold, which is the best gold intercept we have found in our entire drill database.

Highlights include:


-- 54.0 metres grading 6.95 g/t Au, 16.43 g/t Ag, 0.91% Cu, 0.31%
Pb and 0.38% Zn
-- 15.0 metres grading 5.55 g/t Au, 158.65 g/t Ag, 1.13% Cu, 4.40%
Pb and 5.47% Zn
-- 20.0 metres grading 1.60 g/t Au, 58.24 g/t Ag, 0.50% Cu, 2.15%
Pb and 3.84% Zn

See the table below for a full list of complete drill results to date. Assay results for 14 holes are pending.

Additionally, the Company is pleased to report that its systematic exploration program on its 100 square kilometre property surrounding the Yenipazar deposit has discovered two new mineralized outcrops.  One of the outcrops is located almost 1.8 kilometres due north of the known extent of the resource and was shown to have grades at or above our average resource grades.  A hand-held Niton XRF tool was used to measure the grades.  The second outcrop is approximately 1.3 kilometres north and north east of the known resource and is similarly mineralized.  Therefore, the Company has commenced exploration drilling in these areas to test this mineralization.  The program is expected to consist of 5 to 7 drill holes of approximately 200 metres per hole, but ultimately will depend on the results as we progress.  The Company's exploration manager and qualified person under NI 43-101, Dr. Martin Oczlon said, 'These new outcrops are very exciting to us because they could lead to a sizeable increase in our resource base, in particular for gold in the oxide zone. Tests are scheduled to understand how much of this gold can be recovered gravitationally, and a 43-101-compliant resource update is to follow receipt of the complete assay results'.
