Eagle Hill Intersects Near Surface High Grade Gold Including 26.89 g/t Gold Over 4.00 Meters at the Windfall Lake Property

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA, Feb 28, 2011 (Marketwire via COMTEX News Network) --

Eagle Hill Exploration Corporation (TSX VENTURE:EAG) ("Eagle Hill" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has received assay results from an additional two drill holes from the Company's ongoing 10,000 meter drill program. In addition to expanding existing gold zones, the assay results from this program have allowed the Company to identify a new high grade gold zone, named the Mallard Zone, on the Windfall Lake Property (the "Windfall Lake Property" or the "Property").

Hole EAG-11-252 found additional high grade gold near the surface with 26.89 g/t over 4.00 meters and 1.00 meter of 43.90 g/t in a fault zone that may be an extension of the Caribou Zone. In addition, this hole extended the Mink Zone closer to surface. The Mink Zone has a dip extension of 200 meters on this section. This intercept is located approximately 100 meters to the southwest of the intercept in hole EAG-10-245 (3.27 g/t over 8.15 meters).

Additionally, the Company has received results from hole EAG-10-247 and it returned an interval of 2.70 g/t Au over 5 meters from the Caribou Zone at a vertical depth of 200 meters below the surface and below the fault. The intersection confirms the continuity of the Caribou Zone to the southwest where it remains open at depth.

Eagle Hill is in the middle of a 10,000 meter drill program and has over 3,900 meters of drilling completed so far. Assay results for additional holes are pending and will be released when available.

A map of the Windfall Lake Property outlining the location of the gold zones, drill holes and areas of potential expansion has been posted on Eagle Hill's website at www.eaglehillexploration.com.

The following table shows the most material assay results from the two drill holes. A complete table of results, will be shown in the near future on Eagle Hill's website.
