Bearing Acquires Exploration Properties in Durango, Mexico


VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwire - June 21, 2011) - Bearing Resources Ltd. ("Bearing", or the "Company") (TSX VENTURE:BRZ) is pleased to announce that the Company has optioned the Parrandera gold-copper-zinc prospects through agreemEnts with local Mexican vendors. The Company has also made application and surveyed two additional claims in its own name that are contiguous with the Parrandera properties. The Parrandera project is located in the Mapimi region of eastern Durango, Mexico.

Dave Tupper, Vice President Exploration, commented, "Bearing has maintained its strong team of geologists in Mexico under the leadership of Francisco Armenta. Francisco was responsible for the identification of the Cordero silver-gold-lead-zinc discovery and has over 44 years of exploration experience in Mexico. The Mexican team is focused on generative exploration for early stage targets."

The Parrandera options include a contiguous 49 hectare claim group and a roughly 250 hectare claim group. The Company has also staked two additional claims in its own name (Pedro and Pedro 1) that are contiguous with these claim groups. The Pedro and Pedro 1 claims cover roughly 26,550 hectares. Bearing has the right to acquire a 100% interest in both the optioned properties. The 49 hectare claim group can be purchased for a total of $275,000 over two years, subject to a 1.5% NSR (0.5% purchasable for $100,000). The 250 hectare claim group can be purchased for a total of $560,000 over three years subject to a 1.5% NSR (0.5% purchasable for $500,000).

The Parrandera claims are concentrated around a small granodiorite plug and associated east-west striking dykes that intrude limey sediments of the mid-Cretaceous Aurora and La Pena Formations and sandstones of the upper-Cretaceous Caracol Formation. The Aurora and La Pena Formations are well known to host gold-silver-copper-zinc-lead skarn, manto and hydrothermal mineralization in the region as evidenced by Grupo Bal. Peñoles historic Descubridora and La Ojuela mines located 3 kilometres and 45 kilometres to the northwest and east, respectively. Rock grab samples by Bearing has also identified the granodiorites in the region as potential hosts for disseminated gold ± base metal mineralization. The Pedro and Pedro 1 claims were located to cover areas with good potential to host similar mineralization to the east and south of Parrandera as indicated by favourable geology, known mineral occurrences, regional magnetics and government regional stream sediment samples that are anomalous in gold, lead and bismuth.

Rock sampling on the core area of the Parrandera property has returned values of up to 0.603 g/t gold, 14.8 g/t silver, 1.95% copper, 0.95% zinc (sample 105278). Mineralization has also been demonstrated to extend more than 1.3 kilometres to the east with values of up to 0.601 g/t gold, 67.3 g/t silver & 0.89% lead (sample 105259). Of 18 rock grab samples collected in the area, 10 assayed above 100 parts per billion gold. A preliminary work program has begun on the Parrandera property with the collection of 166 soil samples over the core area of interest. The results highlight two irregular, roughly northeast trending gold-copper-zinc anomalies of 300 metres and 400 metres in length and up to 200 metres wide. A program of detailed mapping, prospecting, expanded soil sampling, and geophysics planned from July to October.
