TORONTO, ONTARIO -- (Marketwire) -- 12/11/12 -- Seafield Resources Ltd. ("Seafield" or "the Company") (TSX VENTURE: SFF) is pleased to announce that the Asociacion de Mineros de Miraflores ("Asociacion Mineros" or the "Association") has submitted a request to the Colombian authorities to transfer 100% ownership of the Miraflores Property to the Company. Seafield has also awarded key work packages for Miraflores' feasibility study.

MIRAFLORES PAYMENT

The final payment for 100% ownership of the Miraflores title was made to the Asociacion Mineros on November 29, 2012, as per the contract payment schedule. The Association submitted a request to the corresponding Colombian authorities, Ingeominas, to transfer 100% of Miraflores' rights to Seafield.

Asociacion Mineros has ceased mining activities and handed over the mining premises to Seafield. The Association is cooperatively working with the Company in the transition process. The corresponding underground mine access has now been security fenced and all access is being monitored by the Company.

AWARD OF KEY FEASIBILITY WORK PACKAGES

Seafield is also pleased to announce that it has awarded the feasibility metallurgical test work program to Inspectorate in British Colombia, Canada. Approximately two tonnes of core has been packaged and are currently en route to Inspectorate in order to commence the test work program. The program is scheduled for completion in May 2013.

On December 9, 2012, Seafield issued a letter of intent to GEOSUB Ltda. ("Geosub") of Colombia for the hydrogeological work program. The data collected by Geosub will be used to build Miraflores' hydrogeological model. The construction of the hydrogeological model will be undertaken by the engineering entity that will be awarded the feasibility engineering package. The Company expects to award this package later this month.

The award of these critical packages is in line with the target date to deliver the feasibility study and the Environmental and Social Impact Assessment in Q4 2013, as detailed in the Company's press release dated November 30, 2012.
