TORONTO, ONTARIO--(Marketwired - Nov. 21, 2013) - Seafield Resources Ltd. ("Seafield" or "the Company") (TSX VENTURE:SFF) is pleased to provide an update on its Quinchía Project, to comment on the current mining environment and its review of strategic alternatives.

• Confirmatory Metallurgical Test Work Program, completed as part of the Feasibility Study, suggests reported gold resource may be significantly understated
• Seafield's commitment to active engagement with all stakeholders has resulted in strong support from local communities and local and national authorities
• In its continuing effort to maximize shareholder value, Seafield has engaged Jacob Securities to assist it in conducting a strategic review process to ensure its strategic plan is in line with this fundamental priority of the Company

Technical Update

During the recently completed "Confirmatory Metallurgical Test Work Program" for the feasibility study for the Miraflores Project, it became evident that the measured gold grades within the chosen samples were generally well under the targeted grades. After further investigation, it appears that some of the gold was being lost during the core cutting and drilling processes. During the previous campaigns, the standard procedures in place were insufficient to capture the respective slurries and test them to ascertain the component of gold contained within these slurries. The key areas for further study are the high grade vein zones whereby the gold is generally associated with argillized material as well as in the more porous areas of the breccia. Seafield believes that it is important to design a program targeting these inefficiencies and review the measured gold grades in an attempt to capture the true grades of the deposit, which may have a positive impact on the resource estimate at Miraflores. As a result, the Company has decided to design a work program to analyse the potential impact on the project and to delay the completion of the Feasibility Study until this issue has been fully evaluated.

Regulatory Update on Colombia

Additionally the Company would like to comment on its experience in Colombia in general, and in particular within the Quinchía district. "Over the past 12 months, Seafield has seen clear actions and progress demonstrating that the Institutional Processes within the Colombian mining industry are working", stated Dave Prins, Seafield´s COO. "Engagement of all stakeholders from early stages in the mining development process is a key factor to the success of any mining project, regardless of its jurisdiction. We have made this a concerted priority." As a result, Seafield has seen its pending titles and registrations become perfected and has experienced support from the local community and authorities, and departmental and national authorities during the development of Seafield's work programs.

Review of Strategic Alternatives

As is consistent with the Company objective to at all times maximize shareholder value, the board is announcing a strategic review process (the "Review") to assess the Company's various alternatives with a view to achieving maximum shareholder value. To that end, the Company has engaged the services of Jacob Securities Inc. to assist it with the Review. The Company's focus is on securing the continued development of the Quinchía Gold Project, including taking the Miraflores Deposit toward production and performing further exploration at the Tesorito target and other highly prospective areas. Cesar Lopez, President & CEO of Seafield stated: "We are delighted with the progress that has been achieved to date during the Review and I look forward to providing additional news in the near future. There is real value and opportunity in the Miraflores Deposit as a near term production opportunity; and in the medium term, there is an excellent opportunity with regard to exploration upside at Tesorito target and further potential on our 100% owned land package. We believe that the Quinchía Gold Project is significantly under-valued in the current market environment and we are focused on pursuing initiatives to enhance value."
