VANCOUVER, June 30 - Anglo Swiss Resources Inc. (TSX Venture: ASW; OTCBB: ASWRF; FRANKFURT: AMO.F), June 30, 2009, 8:00 am EDT announces assay results from its continuing NI 43-101 compliant underground sampling program on the lower Main Haulage 257 level at the Company's historic Kenville Gold Mine Property. The results of the program include 10 of the 32 gold assays above 100 g/tonne (2.92 oz/ton) with the highest value at 319.3 g/tonne (9.31 oz/ton). The results given below complete the assay program along the 178-metre North Yule Vein drift.

The present exploration program is to complete an extensive underground sampling program for the 257 Level so that a geological model can be developed which will determine a Mineral Resource for the 257 level, one of seven known levels making up the Kenville Gold Mine footprint. A NI 43-101 compliant Geological Report is expected from the Company's consultant, Munroe Geological Services, in early July 2009.

The underground samples (of an approximate weight of two kilograms) were primarily taken along the footwall portion of the vein since it was previously mined (stoped) above the drift. The North Yule Vein drift is open to depth. Two independent companies performed the assays: 1) Assayers Canada, and 2) International Plasma Labs Ltd.

The underground vein sample results given above are the third of four sets of samples taken for this exploration program. There are approximately 280 underground samples taken for the existing 257 level-exposed vein faces. This program is the first phase of resource determination, which will later include a major underground and surface drilling program. The applications for these drilling programs have been submitted to the British Columbian Ministry of Energy, Mines & Petroleum Resources for approval.

Edward J. Nunn, P.Eng., of Anglo Swiss Resources Inc. is the Qualified Person who has reviewed and acknowledged this press release.

The assay laboratory includes a sample preparation system. This is a process of converting samples of mineralized materials from a large sample collected from an exploration area or the mine into finely divided homogeneous powders suitable for chemical or other such analyzes. This is accomplished by the mechanical reduction (crushing and pulverizing) of the mineralized rock to a smaller particle size alternating with the reduction of sample volume by an unbiased splitting process. The assay method is fire assay, which is a chemical fusion method for separating, concentrating, and measuring the content of gold and silver. For comparison purposes, there are at least two fire assays per sample since the Kenville gold deposit does have a nugget effect. Because of this effect, if the results are different, then the sample is then reassayed.

The assay laboratory also includes screening equipment for crushed rock, sand & gravel, and mineral processing slurry size analyzes purposes. Samples for the upcoming NI 43-101 Gold Resource Evaluation purposes are still sent to two independent laboratories (International Plasma Laboratory and Assayers Canada) in Vancouver for assaying purposes.

VANCOUVER, BC - (June 29, 2009) - North American Gem Inc. (TSX-V: NAG) (the "Company") is pleased to announce a Letter of Intent ("LOI") to acquire additional coal leases located in Knox County, Kentucky. The leases, referred to as the "ABGSC Leases" (approximately 410 acres), are currently being permitted for mining under permit #861-0502. The acquisition is subject to the execution of a Definitive Agreement and any necessary regulatory approvals.

The ABGSC Leases currently has a surface mining permit application in process with the Department of Natural Resources (the "DNR") offices in Frankfort, Kentucky and it is expected to be approved within 60-90 days. The ABGSC Leases are contiguous with the recently announced Swan Pond and Possum Hollow Leases and host a continuation of the Blue Gem and Jellico seams. Analysis of the Blue Gem seam from the Swan Pond and Possum Hollow Leases are very encouraging showing 3% ash, 0.65% sulfur and a range of 14,200 - 15,200 btu. The Jellico seam averages 6.5% ash, 1% sulfur and a range of 12,500 - 13,200 btu (Previously announced in the May 13, 2009 release).

Blue Gem Coal is a high carbon, low ash, low fusion and low grind (very hard) coal that is found only in a small area along the border of Tennessee and Kentucky in the Cumberland Mountains. The coal seam, throughout the region, runs in thickness from 48-71 cm.

The Blue Gem Coal seam is one of three coal seams in the world that are best suited for production of silicon metals. The other two are found in West Virginia and Columbia, South America. Of the three, the Blue Gem Coal seam is the most sought after. For this reason, coal produced from this seam is not only consumed in the U.S., but also exported extensively to Canada, Norway, Iceland, India, France, South Africa and Egypt.

With the ever increasing demand for silicon metals and silicon products, mineable Blue Gem coal resources are becoming increasingly more valuable. Historically, Blue Gem coal can bring an FOB (Freight On Board) mine price that is as much as 100% higher than high quality steam coal and is typically the highest priced of any grade of coal produced in the U.S.

The principal terms set forth in the LOI include:

The Lessor grants to the Lessee the right to acquire an exclusive and undivided leasehold interest in the ABGSC Leases, including coal mining and extraction rights, from the Lessor, upon:

1. The Lessee making one time payments to the Lessor in the amount of:

a. $20,000 payment upon signature of the Letter of Intent;

b. $40,000 payment upon execution of the Definitive Agreement;

c. $40,000 upon technical acceptance of "the permit" by the Kentucky DNR.

2. The Lessee making tonnage production royalty payments to the Lessor in the amount of 1% of the gross sale price (FOB Mine) on all coal mined and extracted from the ABGSC Leases;

3. The Lessee making tonnage production override royalty payments to the Lessor in the amount of $1.50/net ton on all coal mined and extracted from the ABGSC Leases;

4. The Lessor shall be paid a recoupable minimum royalty payment of $10,000 per month beginning January 2010 and not to exceed 36 months. This payment can be credited against royalties when and if royalties from mining activities commence and to such an extent as such royalties exceed $10,000 per month paid to the Lessor.

5. The Lessor agrees to continue the permitting process for permit #861-0502 at its own cost, except for bonding and acerage fees, prior to final payment by the Lessee under 1c.

North American Gem shall have a due diligence period expiring in forty-five (45) days after the execution of the LOI.

Mr. Dean Schafer will be acting as operations manager of all the Company's Kentucky Leases and is currently implementing a mine plan.

Mike Magrum, PEng, a qualified person under National Instrument 43-101, has approved the technical content of this news release.

Klondike Silver Corp. Samples 420 g/t Silver, 34.0% Zinc and 3.7% Lead on Silverton Creek Property

- 2009 SUMMER EXPLORATION FOCUS ON EXPANDING 2008 DISCOVERIES

- ZINC-RICH ZONES ENHANCE POTENTIAL OF SILVER RIDGE AREA

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA-(June 25, 2009) - Klondike Silver Corp. (TSX VENTURE:KS) (the 'Company') is pleased to announce recent exploration programs have discovered new silver-rich prospects while also confirming the potential of targets similar to past-producing mines within the Slocan Silver Camp of south-central British Columbia. Recent exploration in the Silverton Creek Area included testing of the east-west-trending Adams lode, host to the past-producing Canadian and Ivanhoe Mines. Preliminary mapping has focused on the Adams lode where it suddenly transitions southwest, with sampling returning 420 g/t silver, 34.0% zinc and 3.7% lead.

Map of Slocan Silver Camp - http://www.klondikesilver.com/i/pdf/08-07-02-Slocan-3.pdf

SILVERTON CREEK AREA

The Silverton Creek Area, east of the town of Silverton, encompasses the Canadian, Ivanhoe and Wakefield Mines. The Canadian and Ivanhoe Mines are both situated on an east-west trending Adams lode and collectively produced 45,357 tons containing 535,121 ounces silver, 6,043,468 pounds of lead and 766,144 pounds of zinc. The Wakefield Mine produced 8,957 tons containing 193,948 ounces of silver, 2,449,834 pounds of lead and 12,275 pounds of zinc between 1899 and 1929.

Initial exploration near the Wakefield Mine included sampling of the main Wakefield lode, which also revealed the presence of high-grade zinc not reflected in the mine's historic production. A rock sample from this target area returned 36.54% zinc, along with 0.11% lead and 6.0 g/t silver, hosted in a limestone breccia. Material sampled from nearby mine dumps yielded values of 4,038 g/t silver, 49.33% lead and 12.50% zinc.

The Wakefield Mine is situated on the south slope of Silver Ridge below Selkirk Peak with underground workings lying along a north-south trending lode that intersects the prolific Main Lode on the north slope of the ridge. The Main Lode is the primary host for the past-producing Silversmith, Ruth, Richmond-Eureka and Silvana Mines.

Klondike Silver is also conducting an underground exploration program focused on the western extent of the Main Lode hosting the Silvana Mine, the second largest past-producer in the Slocan Silver Camp. The goal is to define resources that can be mined and processed in the Company's fully permitted 100-tonne-per-day flotation mill in the nearby historic town of Sandon. The cash flow generated from test-mining and custom mining would be used to fund ongoing exploration programs.

The Company would also like to announce it has arranged a Private Placement for up to 10,000,000 flow-through or non flow-through units priced at $0.06 per unit, for total proceeds of $600,000. Each unit will consist of either one flow through or one non-flow through common share and one non-flow through, non-transferable share purchase warrant entitling the holder to purchase one additional common share for a period of two years at a price of $0.10 per share. In accordance with Exchange policies, finders' fees may be paid on a portion of the funds raised. The private placement is subject to regulatory approval. The proceeds of the private placement will be used for exploration programs, property option payments and general working capital.

The Company is highly encouraged by the presence of the high-grade zinc within the Silverton Creek project area. Exploration is currently underway to further define the newly discovered zone.

The Qualified Person for the purpose of National Instrument 43-101 is Freeman Smith, P.Geo., who has reviewed the technical contents of this news release.

Halifax, Nova Scotia CANADA, June 25, 2009 - Nayarit Gold Inc. (NYG - TSX Venture), is pleased to report additional drill results from its 30,000 metre Phase II drill program at the Orion District in the State of Nayarit, Mexico.

The Company is presently completing a series of infill and expansion holes at its Animas/Del Norte Discovery zone with the aim of completing a NI 43-101 resource estimate by summer 2009. The present series of drill holes were completed to evaluate the expansion potential in areas where the mineralized zone is still open and to increase the density of drilling in key areas.

The Animas/Del Norte Discovery zone is characterized by eight closely-spaced sub-parallel mineralized veins existing in an east-west structure which has been traced for more than four kilometres and still open at both ends. The dominant mineralized vein at the Discovery is the Del Norte Vein which, to date has been traced along strike for 800 metres, at depth to 400 metres and still open at depth in several locations.

Through this recent round of drilling the company was successful in expanding the mineralized zone in several locations both 'near surface' and to depth, while the infill holes were mostly consistent with results from surrounding holes. Highlights from the drill program include drill hole OR-09-231, an infill hole through the main part of the mineralized zone intersected 30.4 metres of 2.07 gold and 196 g/t silver (5.34 g/t gold equivalent or 321 g/t silver equivalent) and drill hole OR-09-206 intersected 7.62 metres of 0.87 g/t gold and 120 g/t silver (2.87 gold equivalent or 172 g/t silver equivalent) in an expansion hole, which links the known mineralization to the surface. Drill hole OR-09-239 intersected significant high-grade mineralization recording 16.15 metres of 2.49 gold and 671 g/t silver (13.67 g/t gold equivalent or 820 g/t silver equivalent) and expands the limits of a high-grade discovery zone to the west.

Most of the recent drilling aimed at expanding the mineralized zone was performed on the east of the Animas/Del Norte Discovery zone. Drill holes OR-09-206, 222, 234 and 237 drilled on sections 1079, 1119, 1199 and 1239 respectively all expanded known mineralization. These holes were drilled to test the 'open' area between mineralization below and the surface and in all cases intersected significant mineralization, thus expanding the known zone of mineralization to the surface. As well drill holes OR-09-209 and OR-09-217 drilled on sections 1079 and 1119 expanded the limits of known mineralization to depth, where it is still open.

The series of infill holes continue to show continuity in mineralization and thickness. Drill hole OR-09-231, drilled on the eastern side of the mineralized zone recorded 30.4 metres of 2.07 g/t gold and 196 g/t silver or 5.34 g/t gold equivalent or 320 g/t silver equivalent, while infill drill hole OR-09-218, on section 1170, recorded 13.7 metres of 1.06 g/t gold and 208 g/t silver or 4.53 g/t gold equivalent or 272 g/t silver equivalent. Highlights from drill holes are illustrated below:

*Equivalent Values were calculated based on 60 ounces of silver = 1 ounce of gold. Metallurgical Recoveries and Net Smelter Returns are assumed to be 100%. No capping. The intervals recorded above are core lengths.

"We are finalizing the drill data for inclusion in our NI 43-101 resource estimate. Upon completion of the NI 43-101 resource estimate, we will immediately move to a scoping study on the Orion District." Stated Colin Sutherland, President & CEO. "We believe the project will demonstrate robust economics."

The company continues to explore the Orion project and has identified several new drill targets. The newer target areas are characterized by mineralized zones along longer structural zones along an east west strike. These targets will tested as soon as the remaining holes for the NI 43-101 resource estimate are completed.

EDMONTON, ALBERTA-(June 24, 2009) - Grizzly Diamonds Ltd. (TSX VENTURE:GZD) (FRANKFURT:G6H) ("Grizzly") is pleased to announce the acquisition of further lands at its Greenwood Gold Project and the anticipated commencement date for the 2009 exploration program. Recent staking has been successful in adding approximately 5,800 acres to the Copper Mountain area in the vicinity of the Prince of Wales gold showings northwest of Greenwood. Grizzly has commissioned APEX Geoscience Ltd. ("APEX") of Edmonton, Alberta to mobilize to the Greenwood area and commence geological field work across the project area during the first week of July leading to drilling in late summer or early fall.

Prince of Wales Gold Showings

During 2008, a helicopter AeroTEM III airborne geophysical survey was flown over the Copper Mountain area by Aeroquest Surveys Ltd. Geological mapping and sampling during 2008 along with historic exploration indicate the presence of highly anomalous soil and rock samples with up to 29.14 grams per tonne (g/t) gold (Au) (0.85 ounces per ton (oz/t)) in grab samples from the Prince of Wales area. Gold at the Prince of Wales showings is associated with massive to disseminated sulphides, including arsenopyrite, pyrite, pyrrhotite and chalcopyrite in silicified zones spatially associated with a diorite - sediment contact within Late Paleozoic Knob Hill Group rocks. The recent AeroTEM III survey has identified a number of untested, high priority electromagnetic (EM) conductors in the vicinity of the anomalous gold-bearing samples at the Prince of Wales Showings. The conductors will be followed up with ground EM techniques and will be prospected and soil sampled during the upcoming 2009 field program. A number of the Republic Graben high grade gold deposits that were mined over the last 20 years by Echo Bay Mines Ltd. consisted of high grade gold in association with massive to semi-massive sulphide zones in Knob Hill Group and Brooklyn Formation sedimentary rocks.

Upcoming 2009 Field Exploration

Grizzly's 2009 exploration plan for its Greenwood Gold Project holdings consists of a two to three month field program which will include geological mapping, rock and soil sampling, ground geophysics all leading to a late summer to fall drilling program. Based on positive results from the 2008 AeroTEM III survey, additional airborne geophysical surveys are being considered, in particular, over the Sidley-Dayton and Rock Creek portion of the project area. APEX crews are slated to mobilize to the Greenwood area to commence exploration during the first week of July.

Grizzly is an aggressive Canadian exploration company focused on exploring for world class gold deposits in B.C. and diamonds and industrial minerals in Alberta. In B.C., Grizzly currently has five precious-base metal properties totaling over 175,000 acres. It currently holds more than 1 million acres in diamond properties that host diamondiferous kimberlites in the Buffalo Head Hills and Birch Mountains of Alberta. Grizzly has recently acquired metallic and industrial mineral permits for Potash totaling more than 1.4 million acres along the Saskatchewan-Alberta border.

All 2009 field and office exploration programs are being conducted under the supervision of Mr. Michael Dufresne, M.Sc., P.Geol., a principal of APEX Geoscience Ltd. and a Qualified Person under NI 43-101.

Grizzly trades on the TSX Venture Exchange under the symbol GZD, with 21,734,735 common shares issued to date.

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(June 24, 2009) - Amador Gold Corp. (TSX VENTURE:AGX) (the "Company") is pleased to announce that recent exploration programs have identified the presence of gold mineralization within a variety of structurally controlled geological environments at the Horwood Property situated approximately 75 kilometers southwest of Timmins, Ontario.

Based on results to date, the Company believes the Horwood Property has significant potential to host economic gold mineralization within both altered carbonate-silica-pyrite-rich zones within porphyritic phases of the Horwood Peninsula Pluton (HPP) and quartz veins located close to the HPP in the footwall mafic volcanic flows. The property also hosts VMS-style (volcanogenic massive sulphide) mineralization discovered while testing an airborne VTEM anomaly during the 2008 drilling program.

More than 90% of the Horwood Property is covered by overburden, which hindered exploration efforts during the historic gold-mining boom in the Timmins region. More recent work programs include a 1995 drilling program by Haddington Resources Ltd., which intersected 11.66 grams/tonne gold over 1.45 meters while testing the updip projection of an earlier drill intersection of 1.44 grams/tonne gold over 1.0 meter.

- A Mise A La Masse survey indicates that the gold-sulphide zone intersected by Haddington's previous drilling program trends in a general easterly direction parallel to the local metavolcanic stratigraphy for at least 220 meters. The strike extensions of this zone are yet to be drill tested.

- Two grab samples taken from a trench near these drill holes returned values of 3.33 grams gold per tonne and 3.02 grams gold per tonne respectively. These occurrences suggest that gold mineralization occurs within a variety of environments that are structurally controlled.

Amador's initial exploration efforts at Horwood focused on the Bend and Gabbro Zones discovered in late 2006. More recent sampling programs have revealed the presence of new gold-vein discoveries in close proximity to the Bend Zone.

- Two grab samples spaced five meters apart returned assays of 6.12 grams gold per tonne and 4.92 grams gold per tonne, respectively. These samples were discovered approximately 50 meters east and 100 meters south of drill hole AGX-08-17 which returned an assay of 12.35 grams per tonne gold over 2.4 meters (reported in Feb 29, 2008 press release).

The recently discovered gold showings are described as occurring within a series of stacked en echelon quartz veins. Previous drilling in the area has confirmed the presence of a series of anomalous gold mineralization in mafic flows and mafic intrusives. Within these wide zones are stacked en echelon quartz carbonate veins where gold appears to be more concentrated, however gold mineralization occurs ubiquitously throughout the altered wallrock as well. Recent sampling to the south indicates that gold mineralization at Horwood may be more widespread than previously thought.

Amador plans to continue trenching and/or drill-testing the gold-bearing zones on strike and at depth in order to identify higher concentrations of gold in high-grade shoots or extensive low-grade zones amenable to open-pit mining. Along with the newly discovered gold showings, the Gabbro and Bend Zones remain important exploration targets as gold mineralization has not been tested at depth on either of these zones.

Ongoing exploration will be guided by a newly revised structural interpretation of the Horwood Peninsula, which proposes that a number of gold occurrences in the area may be linked to dilatent fracture systems within large-scale fold noses.

The Company is currently compiling information and will be releasing a summary map and diagram of the Horwood Gold Project on its website in the near future.

Charles Hartley, P.Geo and Peter Caldbick, P.Geo. are the qualified persons for the purposes of National Instrument 43-101 for the Company's Horwood Project. Project supervision is by Charles Hartley and the contents of this news release has been reviewed and approved by Peter Caldbick.

NEIGHBOUR EXPLOR RESOURCES INTERSECTS 142 G/TONNE OVER 3 METERS ON ADJACENT CLAIMS

- LARGEST LAND HOLDER IN IMMEDIATE AREA

Golden Chalice Resources (TSX VENTURE:GCR) (the 'Company') is pleased to announce it has commenced early-stage exploration work on its Abitibi East Property. The property is located northeast of Timmins and surrounds Explor Resources' Eastford Lake Gold Project on three sides.

In June of 2008 while testing a 600 meter mag low Explor Resources intersected 12.7 g/t Au over 7.5 meters with the lower 4 meters containing visible gold. On February 9, 2009 Explor Resources reported intersecting 142 g/t Au over 3.0 meters and 45.45 g/t over 3.3 meters. This area is known as the Lynx Gold Zone and is immediately north of the Abitibi East Property.

Drilling by Explor Resources identified a belt of carbonatized ultramafic and mafic volcanics intruded by a number of porphyries as well as a strong structural trend in the area. Geologists at Explor Resources believe that this structural zone, in combination with these altered porphyries, were crucial in the precipitation of hydrothermal gold bearing fluids that occur within ultramafic intrusives.

A significant portion of this belt of ultramafic intrusives trends on to Golden Chalice's Abitibi East ground.

The entire property has been flown by Geotech and numerous VTEM airborne anomalies have been identified. A program of ground truthing the VTEM anomalies and reconnaissance mapping is currently underway. In addition, a program of linecutting and Mag-VLF has also started to delineate potential gold targets along the belt of ultramafics for follow-up by trenching and/or drilling.

All other recent work on Abitibi East has focused on the VMS potential, which the Company will be providing an update on in the near future. A map of the property with potential mineral trends is currently being produced and will soon be available on the Company website.

Peter Caldbick, P.Geo. has reviewed and approved the press release. Mr. Caldbick is the qualified person for the purposes of National Instrument 43-101 for the Company's Abitibi East Project.

About Golden Chalice

Along with its Abitibi East Property, the Company's continues to be focused on its flagship Langmuir Project. The Langmuir Project is easily accessible by road and is near existing mining infrastructure in the Timmins camp, host to numerous world-class gold and base metal deposits. The Company owns 100% of the property which covers more than 30 km of favorable stratigraphy with potential for hosting Kambalda-style deposits.

Golden Chalice has assembled a portfolio of properties in established mining and mineral districts, notably the Abitibi in Ontario, the Bathurst camp in New Brunswick, and a joint-venture project in Nevada.

TORONTO, June 23 - Starfield Resources Inc. ("Starfield") (SRU-TSX) and Nevoro Inc. (TSX: NVR) ("Nevoro") are pleased to announce they have entered into a definitive agreement (the "Arrangement Agreement") pursuant to which Starfield will acquire all of the issued and outstanding securities of Nevoro.

Both Starfield and Nevoro are exploration and development companies with advanced base and precious metal projects. Starfield has the most advanced copper-nickel-cobalt-PGE exploration and development project in the Canadian Arctic, and Nevoro has nickel-copper-cobalt and chrome deposits in the Montana Stillwater District on strike with the Stillwater Mine, which is North America's highest grade producer of platinum group metals.

Management and the board of directors of both Nevoro and Starfield and the Special Committee of the Nevoro board of directors are unanimously in support of the proposed business combination. "This combination is an excellent strategic fit," noted André Douchane, President and CEO of Starfield. "Starfield's large copper-nickel-cobalt-PGE resource at Ferguson Lake complements Nevoro's properties at Stillwater and our environmentally friendly and highly efficient solvent extraction technology should be applicable to Nevoro's Ni-Cu-Co deposits."

"The timing of this transaction could not be better," added Victor Bradley, Executive Deputy Chairman of Nevoro. "Nevoro's Stillwater properties are entering the development stage, and Starfield's management, having developed and managed large base and precious metals mines throughout the world, has the experience necessary to move our properties to the next stage."

Nevoro's principal asset is its Stillwater Ni-Cu-Co-Cr-PGE Project in Montana. The project is located in the well-mineralized Stillwater Layered Mafic-Ultramafic Complex in south-central Montana. Nevoro currently holds 4,070 acres of 100%-owned patented and unpatented mining claims in the eastern part of the Complex, the most intensely explored part of the region, adjacent to and immediately south of the Stillwater Mine, which is one of the world's largest and richest PGE operations. Nevoro's properties include substantial Ni-Cu-Co deposits, which were drilled and advanced -- but never developed -- by Anaconda in the 1960s-1970s, and North America's largest defined chromite resources consisting of development-stage deposits that were partially mined during the 1940s-1950s.

Nevoro recently agreed to acquire Beartooth Platinum's ground in the Stillwater District, increasing Nevoro's land position to some 18,000 acres covering up to 40 kilometres of strike of the Ni/Cu/PGE targets in the district.

Nevoro's Moonlight copper project will not be included in this transaction, but will be distributed to Nevoro shareholders in a manner to be determined.

Starfield's advanced 100% owned Ferguson Lake project is the largest base and precious metals project in Nunavut. The project's massive sulphide resource is estimated at 44 million tonnes with the potential to dramatically increase in size. With one-third of the resource in the indicated category, the project is approaching the advanced development stage. A scoping study was filed on SEDAR inMay 2008, and an update to this study was completed in December 2008 by Scott Wilson RPA. Both of the foregoing studies indicated the project to be economically attractive. The growth potential is significant as the land area of this project accounts for only 2% of the company's 625,000 acre land position. In addition, Starfield has commenced a diamond exploration program following the discovery of a diamond in a till sample inDecember 2008.

Key Benefits of Business Combination

The combination of these two companies is expected to result in a larger, stronger and more cost efficient company, able to achieve much more than each company could on its own. The key benefits are:

    <<
    -   Significantly expanded and geographically diversified resource base
        with a potential combined base metal resource of +150 million tonnes,
        based on historical estimates.
    -   Advanced base metal projects in favourable geological settings.
    -   Significant potential for multiple exploration and development
        projects, with a land package that is largely undeveloped.
    -   Opportunity to apply Starfield's solvent extraction technology at
        Stillwater.
    -   Cost efficiencies resulting from the complementary nature of the
        projects.
    -   Experienced and proven management and board.
    -   Increased share trading liquidity.
    >>

Terms of the Acquisition

Starfield and Nevoro plan to complete the transaction by way of a court approved plan of arrangement pursuant to S.192 of the Canada Business Corporations Act, whereby each issued and outstanding Nevoro common share will be purchased by Starfield, and the holder thereof will receive 0.87 of one Starfield common share (the "Transaction") which represents a value of approximately C$0.15 per share based upon the closing price of Starfield common shares on theToronto Stock Exchange on June 22, 2009 and a 64% premium on the 20-day volume weighted average trading price of the common shares of both companies. This is in addition to the value of any distribution Nevoro shareholders may receive for Nevoro's Moonlight copper project.

Holders of Nevoro common share purchase warrants and stock options shall receive, upon the subsequent exercise of such Nevoro warrants and options, 0.87 of one Starfield common share in lieu of each Nevoro common share to which they would have otherwise been entitled. The exercise price applicable to each Nevoro warrant and option shall be adjusted to an amount equal to the product of (A) the exercise price per share prescribed in each Nevoro warrant and option and (B) 1.15.

Currently, Nevoro has 151,854,273 common shares issued and outstanding, and Starfield has 332,685,899 common shares outstanding. In addition, Nevoro has 15 million contingently issuable common shares and 7.5 million contingently issuable warrants in regards to the not yet completed Beartooth land acquisition. Upon the closing of the Transaction as currently proposed, and assuming the completion of the contingent transaction above, Starfield will have 476,907,006 issued and outstanding common shares, of which approximately 70% will be held by Starfield's current shareholders and approximately 30% will be held by Nevoro shareholders.

The Arrangement Agreement also provides for, among other things, a non-solicitation covenant on the part of Nevoro, subject to customary "fiduciary out" provisions that entitle Nevoro to consider and accept a superior proposal, a right in favour of Starfield to match any superior proposal and the payment to Starfield of a termination payment equal to $500,000, under certain circumstances.

The acquisition of Nevoro is subject to all requisite regulatory approvals, court approval, obtaining all security holder approvals required by applicable laws and such other conditions as are customary in transactions of this nature. Nevoro will be seeking shareholder approval of the proposed acquisition, in a meeting to be held on or beforeAugust 31, 2009.

The Berens River Property, also referred to as the Zahavy Mine, is the most advanced mineral prospect in the Favourable Lake Belt and the only site of significant past production. Its discovery was the catalyst for important infrastructure development including an airstrip, a town site, and a hydroelectric power plant. Exploration activity first took place at Borthwick Lake (The Berens River Mine property) with the discovery of gold in four veins in the mid-1920's. It is reported that from 1939-1948, Newmont Mining Corporation's subsidiary, Berens River Mines, produced 560,607 tons of ore grading 0.28 oz./t Au, 10.3 oz./Ag, 0.54% Pb and 0.16% Zn from the No. 1 vein (508,574 tonnes grading 9.59 g/t Au, 353.1 g/t Ag, 0.54% Pb and 0.16% Zn). The mine ceased operations in 1948 due to lower grade and metal prices and higher operating costs. Although the mine reached a depth of over 1,000 metres, no production was recorded from below the 518-metre level. The mine was in production from 1939 to 1948 at a rate of 250 tons per day.

Gold mineralization occurs in quartz veins located within a sequence of volcanic and sedimentary rocks. The most significant mineralization in the area is considered to be the precious-base metal bearing series of sub-parallel, south-dipping veins which occur in the east-trending zones which orthogonally cross cut felsic volcanics. The mineralization consists of silicification, pyrite, sphalerite, galena, minor chalcopyrite, gold and silver minerals which occur in shoots within structures which have been offset by faulting.

The primary exploration target is believed by previous workers to be the No. 3 Vein, which lies 600 metres north of the Berens River Mine and has been subjected to several historic mineral resource/reserve estimates in the 1980's but never put into production. Historical resources vary widely depending on the author and the gold price. At the current gold price project economics are substantially better than at any time in the past. A systematic technical program including 3D modeling of all drilling and underground data, confirmatory surface and underground sampling and diamond drilling will be required to qualify a credible, NI 43-101 compliant resource at current operating conditions. These are the logical first steps in advancing this project area as part of the company's integrated exploration program in the Favourable Lake Belt.

David Bending, M.Sc., P.Geo., President and CEO of Shoreham Resources Ltd. is a Qualified Person as defined in National Policy 43-101 ("NI 43-101"), and is responsible for and has reviewed all technical information contained in this news release. Mr. Bending reports that: " Based on the information at hand, the available infrastructure and today's gold prices, our technical team has stated that while this project does not have ay NI43-101 compliant resources or reserves the project warrants evaluation and if said evaluation is successful then the project may, in their opinion, have potential for development at a scale of 400 to 500 Tonnes Per Day. In conjunction with evaluation and expansion of the Borland Lake silver-gold targets and the other advanced prospects in the belt, the Berens River Property is a solid step forward towards production."

CALGARY, ALBERTA--(Marketwire - June 23, 2009) - Torch River Resources Ltd. (TSX VENTURE:TCR) (PINK SHEETS:TORVF) (FRANKFURT:WNF)

Management is pleased to announce results of geological, geochemical and geophysical mineral exploration on the Nahmint Project, located 30 km southwest of Port Alberni, BC. Historic mining took place on the Three Jays mining property in 1898 to 1902 and a total 1,100 m (3,608 feet) of cross-cut and drifts were driven from 3 levels. The mining operation produced 148,889 kilograms (328,244.1 pounds) of copper, 75,207 grams (2,417.96 troy ounces) silver, and 1,929 grams (62.018 troy ounces) gold (source: Minfile).

The mineralization consists of chalcopyrite, magnetite, bornite, and pyrite in a gangue of epidote, garnet and actinolite. Skarn type (calcic exoskarn) mineralization is known to occur as individual ore shoots from 2-8.5 meters (6.6-27.9 feet) wide and 20-45 meters (65.6-147.6 feet) in length and is hosted in Quatsino limestone and tuffs/flows of the Karmutsen Formation. The ore shoots strike E-W and dip sub-vertical and occur in several areas of the crown grant claims covering a distance of 1,500 meters (4,920 feet). In addition to skarn mineralization, disseminated mineralization is known to occur in the adjacent intrusive and volcanic rocks. The intrusive rocks nearby are Early Middle Jurassic Plutonic Suite and include granodiorite and diorite porphyry lithologies.

To determine lateral extent of mineral zones, a program of magnetometer geophysical surveying, and soil geochemical sampling was carried out on a 500 X 500 meter and a 300 X 400 meter area on the Pacific and Viking mineral zones respectively. Geochemical analysis of a soil sample, taken 60 meters southwest of rock chip sample PAC09AR5, returned 1,664 ppm Cu, 1.2 ppm Ag and 22 ppb Au. The old workings consist of three cuts and a 4 meter long tunnel located on the Pacific Crown Grant at 90-100 meters elevation. Cuts and tunnel targeted two parallel shear zones that contain variable massive magnetite, pyrite and chalcopyrite trending NE and dipping moderately northwest. The area of the old workings was surveyed with a magnetometer (GEM GSM-19T) resulting in a 250-350 nT negative magnetometer anomaly (and 100 m to the north of a 600-700 nT positive anomaly).

THREE JAYS GRID: (Update)

The main feature of this grid is a 100 X 150 meter area copper in soil anomaly (greater than 500 ppm Cu) that correlates with the location of the old workings. The Three Jays soil grid shows a zone of gold in soil (10-245 ppb Au) in the northwest portion of the grid, and zinc in soil (100-801 ppm Zn) in the west portion of the grid. Rock chip sampling of bedrock and float returned assay values as follows:

HAPPY JOHN GRID: (Update)

Soil samples taken over the Happy John revealed a widespread zinc in soil anomaly (i.e. 27 out of 43 samples taken returned between 104 to 4430 ppm Zn). The Zn in soil anomaly roughly correlates with weakly anomalous Cu (i.e. 14 out of 43 samples taken returned between 109 to 293 ppm Cu). Above average Au values occur throughout the Happy John No 2 grid (10 soil samples with 14-75 ppb Au), and in the north and south portions of Happy John No 4 grid (7 soil samples with 12-58 ppb Au).

Rock chip samples from the Happy John grid gave the following results:

Magnetometer readings were taken over the Happy John No 2 and No 4 grid. The west portion of the No 2 grid has a zone of above average readings.

Further mapping, soil geochemical surveys, rock chip sampling, magnetometer geophysical surveys in the area of the Orphan Boy, Black Prince, Saucy Lass, and Sunshine copper skarn showings is planned. Further evaluation of Cu-Zn-Ag-Au mineral zones on the Nahmint Property will be directed at zones of economic importance (i.e. significant grade and tonnage). Rock chip, soil sampling and magnetometer surveys were carried out by Andris Kikauka, P.Geo., a Qualified Person for the purposes of NI 43-101.

(TSX VENTURE:QAU) (FRANKFURT:QX9) (http://www.qgoldresources.com) is pleased to announce that it has received assay results from 39 surface trench samples taken from the "Baseline Vein" on its over 30,000 acres of 100% owned prospective gold patents, Crown Leases and Mining Claims in the historic (1890's) gold camp of Mine Centre, Ontario. Weighted average assay values for the 39 samples equalled 11.8 grams/ tonne (g/t) of gold and 13.6 g/t of silver. Several high-grade intervals were intersected, including two samples yielding gold values at 84.1 and 44.5 g/t and silver at 32.0 and 39.0 g/t, respectively. Four other high-grade samples yielded gold from 19.5 to 24.0 g/t and silver from 21.0 to 34.0 g/t.

The results tabulated below represent surface samples collected from two separate areas along the exposed trace of the vein. Area One (i.e. 55018-55020) returned 12.37g Au and 13.47g Ag over an average vein width of 0.83m and a strike length of 25 meters. A total of 93.5 kg of sample material collected from Area Two (55017, 55021-55048) returned 11.61g Au and 15.19g Ag over a strike length of 15m. This section of the vein had been extensively blasted during an earlier program and a 1m x 1m continuous grid was established for sample control.

The results of additional infill sampling between Areas One and Two are pending. The Baseline Vein is exposed along strike in both directions and remains to be sampled.

Assays were performed by ALS Chemex Division (Vancouver) of ALS Canada Ltd., using Au 30g Fire Assay AA finish for gold and Ag-0G62 Aqua Regia Digestion for silver.

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA-(June 18, 2009) - Chalice Diamond Corp. (TSX VENTURE:COD) and Abitibi Mining Corp. (TSX VENTURE:ABB) (the 'Companies') are pleased to announce that a recent gold discovery made by Strike Minerals Inc. ('Strike') has potential to extend onto claims optioned by the Companies to Strike earlier this year.

Strike recently reported (see Strike press release dated June 9, 2009) highly encouraging results from a 30-hole drilling program conducted at its Nicholson gold property north of Missinabie, Ontario. Highlights include 298.43 grams gold per tonne over 0.46 meters intersected at a vertical depth of 40.5 meters on the main showing. The gold-bearing quartz vein was traced more than 140 meters on strike, with potential to continue to both the northwest and southeast.

In recognition of the potential for the continuation of the main showing, Strike optioned four claims (held 75% by Chalice Diamond and 25% by Abitibi Mining) surrounding its Nicholson property earlier this year (see press release March 31, 2009). Strike agreed to pay the Companies a total of $60,000 and 300,000 shares over a two-year period as well as spend $300,000 to explore the claims by March, 2012. Once these commitments are completed, Strike will have earned a 100% interest in the four claims, subject to a 3% NSR.

With the success of the recently completed drilling program, Strike is extending its option with the Companies on the Nicholson property. The extension of the option permits Strike to further explore and develop the potential of the Nicholson property.

By June 26, 2009, Strike will make its second payment of $10,000 and issue a further 50,000 shares to Chalice Diamond Corp. (75%) and Abitibi Mining Corp. (25%).

Strike is currently reviewing all data from the drilling program and past programs. The project geologist is developing a plan of further exploration of the property to prove its full merit.

- 2009 SUMMER EXPLORATION TO FOCUS ON EXPANDING 2008 DISCOVERIES

- PERMITS RECEIVED AND TRENCHING PLANNED FOR EARLY JULY

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA-(June 17, 2009) - Klondike Silver Corp. (TSX VENTURE:KS) (the 'Company') is pleased to announce that recent exploration programs have discovered new silver-rich prospects while also confirming the potential of targets similar to past-producing mines within the Slocan Silver Camp of south-central British Columbia.

The 2008 exploration program focused on testing several project areas that encompass past-producing mines.

Map of Slocan Silver Camp - http://www.klondikesilver.com/i/pdf/...

JACKSON BASIN AREA

The Jackson Basin Area, includes the historic Jackson Mine discovered in 1892. Mining continued until 1955, followed by intermittent operations until 1975.

Trenching is planned to begin in July along with testing those areas of the Jackson Basin believed to potentially host high-grade silver zones. The main objectives of the 2008 exploration program in the Jackson Basin Area was to determine the extent of the main vein to the east of the Jackson Mine. The main lode exploited in the past is believed to extend as far west as the Northern Belle Crown Grant on the northeast side of the Mt. Payne which is also on the property.

Past programs conducted east of the Jackson Mine have generated encouraging results that revealed a thick breccia zone with massive sulphides throughout, cross-cut by quartz veins and hosted in a limestone of the Slocan Group.

About 2.5 meters of the breccia zone is visible in outcrop. Further exploration is required to determine its orientation and true thickness.

- Samples collected directly from the breccia zone returned values of 79 g/t silver, 3.25% lead and 2.16% zinc. A vein crosscutting the breccia zone was also sampled and returned 351 g/t silver, 10.29% lead and 8.1% zinc.

The Company also explored other portions of the Jackson Basin, which revealed potential for high-grade silver zones that may be further tested in future programs.

The Company is also conducting an underground exploration program focused on the western extent of the Main Lode hosting the Silvana Mine, the second largest past-producer in the Slocan Silver Camp. The goal is to define resources that can be mined and processed in the Company's fully permitted 100-tonne-per-day flotation mill in the nearby historic town of Sandon. The cash flow generated from test-mining and custom mining would be used to fund ongoing exploration programs.

The Company would also like to announce it has arranged a Private Placement for up to 10,000,000 flow-through or non flow-through units priced at $0.06 per unit, for total proceeds of $600,000. Each unit will consist of either one flow through or one non-flow through common share and one non-flow through, non-transferable share purchase warrant entitling the holder to purchase one additional common share for a period of two years at a price of $0.10 per share. In accordance with Exchange policies, finders' fees may be paid on a portion of the funds raised. The private placement is subject to regulatory approval. The proceeds of the private placement will be used for exploration programs, property option payments and general working capital.

The Qualified Person for the purpose of National Instrument 43-101 is Freeman Smith, PGeo, who has reviewed the technical contents of this news release.

Vein 4 is exposed over a strike length of approximately 100 metres. It consists of an up to 2 metre wide quartz-sulphide vein localized within an ENE trending shear interpreted as a component of the Paint Lake shear zone. At its eastern end the vein abruptly changes strike, exploiting a NW trending structure that is related to the late-stage development of the Paint Lake shear zone.

Vein 7 is exposed over a strike length of approximately 40 metres. It is hosted within a discrete NW trending dextral structure similar to the one controlling Vein 4. It consists of a narrow quartz vein containing pyrite, chalcopyrite and galena.

Detailed mapping is currently being completed at both showings to better understand the controlling structures and the distribution of the gold mineralization.

The new zones represent a significant expansion of the surface gold showings discovered last year and reported in press releases on August 25, 2008 and March 12, 2009. Veins 7, 8, 1 and 10 occur at or within the Paint Lake shear zone over a combined strike length of 1.3 kilometres. Veins 4, 5 and 9 occur southeast of the Vein 7 - Vein 10 zone and represent secondary vein structures within mafic volcanics.

Please refer to www.sagegoldinc.com for a map and current channel and grab samples of Veins 1 - 10 on the Paint Lake property.

The Paint Lake property is located contiguous to the western end of Ontex's Brookbank gold deposit which has 43-101 compliant inferred and indicated mineral resources. Ontex announced (12/18/08) a drill intersection of 85.9 g Au/T over 3.4 metres from drilling completed on the Brookbank deposit. Sage's new gold zones occur in a structural/stratigraphic corridor that encompasses Veins 7, 8, 1, 10 and 2 as one potential mineralized horizon and Veins 5, 9, 3 and 4 as another series of parallel and sub-parallel veins. Sage will continue to expose, map and sample the current vein structures and will prospect for additional veins throughout the summer season.

Technical Information

Sage's channel samples are between 3 and 4 cm wide and are cut with a motorized diamond saw to a depth of approximately 5 cm. The channels are cut as close to perpendicular to the strike of the vein as permitted by the rock surface. Samples are taken from the footwall, the vein and the hanging wall. Sample intervals are chosen to provide a representative sample of the surface mineralization of the vein and the wall rock. Assays reported in this news release were completed by Accurassay Labs in Thunder Bay. Accurassay's gold analysis is performed using a 30g fire assay charge. The fire assay procedure uses lead collection with a silver inquart. The beads are then digested and an atomic absorption or ICP finish is used. All gold assays that are greater than 10 g/t are re-assayed by fire assay with a gravimetric finish.

The technical content of this news release relating to the Paint Lake project has been reviewed by Sage's consulting Geologist Robert B. L'Heureux, M.Sc, P.Geol., of APEX Geoscience Ltd., who is a qualified person as defined by NI 43-101.

Anglo Swiss Resources Completes Metallurgical Study for 93% Gold Recovery at the Kenville Gold Mine

Vancouver, British Columbia Anglo Swiss Resources Inc. (TSX Venture: ASW) (OTCBB: ASWRF) (FRANKFURT: AMO.F), June 17, 2009, 8:00 am EST - announces that G&T Metallurgical Services Ltd. of Kamloops, British Columbia has completed a Metallurgical Scoping Study for the company’s Kenville Gold Mine Project near Nelson, British Columbia. G& T Metallurgical Services is an integrated mineral process research and development company with laboratories for sample preparation, mineral processing testing, mineralogical analysis and chemical analysis.

The objectives of the Kenville Property study were to: 1) assay the gold, silver, copper, and lead grades of six submitted representative mineralized rock samples, 2) prepare a composite by combining the six submitted samples, 3) determine the grindability of the composite, 4) test gravity concentration techniques to the composite sample, 5) test how the composite responds to the standard flotation technique, 6) determine possible concentrate upgrading techniques, and 7) develop a simplified mineral processing flowsheet.

The results indicated that the composite feed grade from the six submitted samples is 18 g/tonne gold, 0.94% lead, and 0.25% copper. (See News Release March 23, 2009) Approximately 70% of the gold came from the two underground Jewelry Box stope samples. The standard flotation technique recovered 98 percent of the feed gold into a concentrate of 155 g/tonne gold, 355 g/tonne silver, 12 percent lead, and 2.5 per cent copper. By combining the gravity and flotation techniques, the result was a 93 percent gold recovery with an average concentrate grade of 200 g/tonne, 18 percent lead and 3.3 percent copper.

The grindability testing indicated the mineralized material is moderately hard at a workload of 14.6 kWh/tonne. Once the composite was primarily sized to –100 mesh (-150 microns), the weighted average of the three gravity concentration tests resulted in a 53 percent feed gold recovery at a concentration grade of 530 g/tonne.

From the simple flowsheets developed from this scoping work, Anglo Swiss Resources has completed the preliminary design work for its Kenville Milling Facility, which includes selecting the remaining required equipment, and to determine both capital and operating costs. The Mill is scheduled to be operational by the end of the third quarter of 2009.

Edward J. Nunn, P.Eng., of Anglo Swiss Resources Inc. is the Qualified Person who has reviewed and acknowledge this press release.
