VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwire - Feb. 11, 2009) -

NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION TO U.S. NEWSWIRE SERVICES OR FOR DISSEMINATION IN THE UNITED STATES

Goldbrook Ventures Inc. ("Goldbrook") (TSX VENTURE:GBK) is pleased to announce that it has received the initial funding of $5,400,000 for the 2009 exploration program, from Jilin Jien Nickel Industry Co., Ltd. of Panshi, Jilin, China. This year's exploration program will include over 15,000 metres of diamond drilling in addition to regional mapping programs, geochemical surveys and geophysical surveys. This program will follow-up on the highly successful 2008 program, which resulted in the discovery of extensive nickel sulphides within the Mystery zone. Exploration program funding in 2009, which is planned to be in excess of $15 million dollars, will also test new and positive results from previous geophysical, geochemical and geological work to better define the Ni-Cu-Co-PGE sulphide potential within the company's extensive Raglan nickel belt property holdings.

Other News

Goldbrook previously reported (press release November 24, 2008) that it has received its refund from the Quebec government in the amount of $6,901,182. This refund represents the Quebec corporate tax credits for the Goldbrook fiscal year ended April 30, 2008 relating to exploration expenditures on their Quebec mineral properties.

Goldbrook, in press releases dated from September 3 through November 6, 2008, announced details of its discovery of a new and significant zone of Ni-Cu-Co-PGE sulphides within ultramafic rocks in the western part of the Belanger Trend within the company's extensive landholdings in the Raglan Belt. One drillhole, MYS08-003, intersected 131 metres of sulphide with an average grade of 0.81% Ni, 0.87% Cu, 0.04% Co and 3.01 g/t PGE+Au. Drilling at Mystery appears to confirm a vertical to steeply dipping, mineralized zone varying in thickness form about 10 to 60 m along a strike length of over 150 metres. It is drill tested to a vertical depth of over 300 metres. Continued drilling of this zone in 2009 is planned to better define the extent of the sulphide mineralization zone.
