Sacre-Coeur Minerals Arranges Equipment Sale to Riverside Resources: Aims at Development of Million Mountain Zone 1 Hardrock Resource for Production

Vancouver, British Columbia CANADA, July 30, 2012 /FSC/ - Sacre-Coeur Minerals Ltd. (SCM - TSX Venture, S5N - FWB), (the "Company") announced today that it has entered into a purchase and sale agreement (the "Purchase Agreement") with Riverside Resources Inc. ("RRI"; TSXV: RRI.V) under which the Company sold to RRI one of its three core drills which is currently surplus to the needs of the Company and has been in storage. The Purchase Agreement provides that the Company can elect to repurchase the core drill from RRI or act as agent to sell the drill to a third party. In either case, the Company shall repay RRI its purchase price plus a premium of 15%. If after 120 days from the effective date of the Purchase Agreement, the Company has not repurchased the core drill or effected a sale to a third party, and if the Company and RRI have not reached other arrangements, RRI shall be entitled to put the drill back to the Company for the purchase price plus a 15% premium thereon. The Company's performance under the Purchase Agreement is secured by a subordinate interest in 51% of the shares of its wholly owned subsidiary company, Sacre-Coeur Guyana, Inc. subject to the standard provisions of rights of redemption under the Personal Property Security Act (British Columbia). The shares pledged in the subsidiary company will be deposited in escrow pending release upon the Company's performance under the terms of the Purchase Agreement. The proceeds from the sale of the drill will be used as working capital for general corporate purposes.

The Company has now completed a base case internal analysis of the potential development of its Million Mountain Zone 1 hard-rock resource, including an in-house update to its NI 43-101 resource. This in-house update and analysis, though not intended to be NI 43-101 compliant, has provided the Company with strong encouragement for proceeding with an update of the resource to NI 43-101 standards and initiation of all actions aimed at moving forward with the evaluation of production and the commercial potential of the deposit as soon as practicably possible. These activities shall include as appropriate, commissioning of environmental studies, application for necessary permits for production operations, metallurgical studies, commissioning of a third party feasibility study, and arrangement of financing for development if warranted.

We are excited about the progress marked by the encouraging results of our internal analysis of the prospect of near term development of the Million Mountain hard-rock.
