Stratton Releases Final Drill Results From MAC 2011 Program

High Grade Results Continue With 51 Metres of 0.20% Molybdenum and 0.29% Copper

VANCOUVER, March 1, 2012 - Stratton Resources Inc. (TSX VENTURE:SI) ("Stratton" or the "Company") is pleased to announce the final assay results from its 2011 drilling program at the MAC Molybdenum-Copper Project ("MAC") located in central British Columbia, Canada.

Stratton completed its 2011 exploration campaign at the MAC project in mid-December. Previously, the Company announced high-grade drill results from the first twenty diamond drill holes (see news releases dated November 23, 2011 and January 12, 2012). The results of the final twenty-four holes have been received and significant intercepts are reported in the tables below. Please see the end of this release for a drill hole location map of the forty-four holes drilled in the 2011 program or visit the Company's website at www.strattonresources.com.

In addition to the previously reported twelve holes drilled on the east contact zone, results have been received for eleven new holes from this zone which all returned significant molybdenum-copper mineralization values including a highlighted intercept of 183 metres of 0.094% Mo and 0.179% Cu in drill hole #36, which included 51 metres of 0.202% Mo and 0.286% Cu.

Results from the final holes on the east contact confirm a high-grade core trending northwesterly towards the area of high-grade intercepts of the north-west contact. Potential for a structural and mineralized corridor through the intervening quartz monzonite stock remains untested.

A further nine holes (in addition to the eight previously reported) have been received from the north-west contact with continued showings of significant molybdenum-copper mineralization. Hole #26 intersected 118 metres of 0.105% Mo and 0.135% Cu, which included 56 metres of 0.155% Mo and 0.20% Cu.

"The initial drill program has shown the potential for the Camp Zone at MAC to be a significant molybdenum-copper porphyry deposit with a high-grade core that is near surface and would provide an excellent starter pit for a future mining operation. We have begun work estimating the initial NI 43-101 compliant resource on the Camp Zone and look forward to reporting the results in the coming weeks," said Greg McCunn, President and CEO. "We see potential to expand resources at the Camp Zone with further drilling as the mineralization continues at depth, to the south and to the east. When you combine the upside potential of expanding the Camp Zone with the additional exploration targets that were identified on the claims by our ground and airborne geophysical surveys, we have the opportunity to add significant shareholder value through additional exploration in 2012."
