Belmont Confirms and Identifies New Polymetallic (Gold & Base Metal) VMS Style Deposits on the Lumby-Bufo Property

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwire - April 5, 2011) - Belmont Resources (TSX VENTURE:BEA)(PINK SHEETS:BEAAF)(FRANKFURT:L3L) is pleased to report the results of the last 5 holes of their 2010-11 fall-winter drilling program on its 100% owned Lumby-Bufo property northeast of Atikokan and adjacent to Osisko's Hammond Reef Gold project. Belmont previously reported the results of the first three holes (BB-10-6, 7 & 8) drilled at the north end of Bufo Lake where the three holes intersected anomalous values of gold, silver, copper and zinc contained within an east-west striking mineralized sulphide and quartz-ankerite bearing vein system associated with altered interbedded tuff, massive and pillowed mafic volcanic rocks. The holes confirmed the westerly and easterly extension of the gold mineralized horizons intersected by previous exploration in this area and further eastward under Lumby Lake. Holes BB-10-09 and BB-10-10 were drilled to test the down-dip and strike extension of the south east-west gold and silver mineralization encountered in holes BB-10-01 to BB-10-05 drilled last spring in the southwestern portion of Bufo Lake. Hole BB-10-09 was collared 50 meters north of BB-10-02 to test the down-dip extension of gold mineralization encountered in Hole BB-10-02. Hole BB-10-10 collared 100 meters west of BB-10-03 tested the westerly extension of the gold mineralization encountered in hole BB-10-3. Hole BB-10-04 drilled last spring is located 200 meters west of hole BB-10-10. Further reconnaissance geological observations around the south end of Bufo Lake revealed several other untested parallel Fe-carbonate shear zones. The following are highlights of the values intersected in Holes BB-10-09 and BB-10-10. Hole BB-10-09 Hole BB-10-09 was drilled south on L 5+00E, 10+00N (Bufo Lake Grid) at a dip of -45 degrees to a depth 300 meters intersecting 3 gold bearing sulphide zones as shown in Table-1 below: /T/ Table - 1 --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hole Number From To Interval Gold Silver Copper BB-10-09 Sample # m m m ppb g/t ppm --------------------------------------------------------------------------- 92042-92061 10.4 38.8 28.5 13 3.3 --------------------------------------------------------------------------- 92072 55.7 56.5 0.8 24 --- --------------------------------------------------------------------------- 92077 & 92078 59.2 59.7 0.5 20 2.04 251 --------------------------------------------------------------------------- 92209-92212 229.5 235.5 6 80 --------------------------------------------------------------------------- /T/ Hole BB-10-10 This hole intersected 6 gold-silver bearing mineralized zones. The results are listed in Table -2 below: /T/ Table - 2 -------------------------------------------------------------------- Hole Number From To Interval Gold Silver BB-10-10 Sample # m m m ppb g/t -------------------------------------------------------------------- 92277 43.5 45.1 1.6 72 1.9 -------------------------------------------------------------------- 92284 55.6 57.0 1.4 181 1.46 -------------------------------------------------------------------- 92298 85.5 87.0 1.5 77 -------------------------------------------------------------------- 92336-92339 129.5 132.4 3.7 131 2.47 -------------------------------------------------------------------- 92355 178.4 180.2 1.8 41 3.29 -------------------------------------------------------------------- 92363 215.2 216.2 1.0 36 2.66 -------------------------------------------------------------------- /T/ The next two holes were drilled near the east end of Lumby Lake, 50 meters north of the high grade silver-base metal discovery zone and north of Herontrack Lake. Holes BB-10-11 and BB-10-12 tested depth and strike extensions of the high grade silver-base metal discovery showing. Both holes intersected widespread sphalerite, galena, chalcopyrite and pyrrhotite mineralization containing significant silver and base metal (Zn, Pb, and Cu) values. Hole BB-10-11 also intersected chalcopyrite and pyrrhotite mineralization in gabbro containing up to 2.2 g/t Ag, 817 ppm Cu and 602 ppm Ni over 0.8 meters. Table 3 shows the highlights of the 130 meter wide mineralized zone intersected in Hole BB-10-11. This Cu-Ni zone of mineralization may be the down-dip extension of a copper-nickel-silver-zinc and PGM surface showing, previously discovered along the road south of Lumby Creek. Hole BB-10-11 Hole BB-10-11 collared at L29+00E, 24+50N and drilled at a dip of - 45 degrees grid south to a depth of 336 meters. A 130 meter wide zone of mineralization was intersected with values ranging from 5 ppb up to 67 ppb gold, up to 76.5 g/t silver, up to 0.3 % copper, 1.09 % zinc, 0.3% lead and 602 ppm nickel. The silver and gold values show strong association with the sphalerite-galena and chalcopyrite mineralization within a zinc upper capping zone and with the lower copper footwall alteration zone. The gold shows higher values with the copper mineralization. A richer narrower section of 21.4 meters from 64.6m to 86.0m assayed 8.76 g/t silver and 0.21% zinc. Table -3, listed below shows the highlights of this 130 meter wide mineralized section. The style of mineralization encountered is similar to volcaniclastic VMS style deposits, with an upper silver-lead-zinc rich capping zone and a copper-zinc-silver rich lower footwall zone. The mineralization intersected within these 2 holes are similar in width and to the silver-zinc-lead-copper mineralization intersected in holes L-98-1 to L-98-5 and L-00-6 drilled by Atikokan Resources and located 200 and 300 meters west and on strike with holes BB-10-11 and BB-10-12. The 300 to 500 meter thick volcaniclastic rock sequence containing the silver- base metal mineralization is traceable from surface trenching and the geophysical survey from the west end of Lumby Lake and eastward to Hutt Lake, a distance of over 6 kilometers. /T/ Table - 3 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Sample From To Interval Gold Silver Copper Zinc Lead

The last hole, BB-10-13, was collared on L38+00E, 36+00N, drilled grid south at -45 degrees to a depth of 434.8 meters to test this geophysical trend. Hole BB-10-13 intersected continuous disseminated, stringer, semi-massive and massive style mineralization consisting mainly of chalcopyrite, pyrrhotite, sphalerite and pyrite. This mineralization is contained within mainly altered massive and pillowed flows and interbedded mafic tuffs and is consistent with a copper-zinc VMS Type deposit with gold and silver by-products. The dominant pyrrhotite mineralization is probably the cause of the wide dominant, east-west I.P. chargeability anomaly trend. The chargeability anomaly is traceable 500 meters west and 2 kilometers east of Hole BB-10-13 and is open further west and east beyond the surveyed area. Table - 5 below shows some of the higher grade sections of the hole. /T/ Table - 5 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ From To Interval Gold Copper Zinc Lead Nickel Sample # m m m ppb Silver ppm ppm ppm ppm ppm ------------------------------------------------------------------------ 092659 18.0 19.5 1.5 8 1603 152 14 88 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------------------------ 092687 55.5 57.0 1.5 less less than 1 3739 322 32 84 than 5 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------------------------ 092717 103.6 104.1 0.5 less less than 1 2465 192 17 99 than 5 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------------------------ 092734 127.4 128.1 0.7 83 2.98 256 51 7 90 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------------------------ 092774 183.0 184.5 1.5 5 less than 1 3573 376 35 47 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------------------------ 092907 363.6 365.2 1.6 less 13.01 120 38 5 108 than 5 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------------------------ 092917 377.4 378.4 1.0 less 13.07 80 56 12 170 than 5 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------------------------ 092931 395.6 397.0 1.4 less 13.08 110 82 8 104 than 5 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ 092932 397.0 398.6 1.6 less 12.75 133 83 11 100 than 5 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ /T/ Belmont's two drilling campaigns have confirmed that the VMS style silver-base metal mineralization intersected in the Lumby Lake area is very similar and probably deposited during the same period as the silver and minor base metal mineralization intersected in the drill holes at Bufo Lake. The gold mineralization in both areas appears to be a separate mineralizing event associated with the regional structural event and is similar to the gold mineralization occurring on Osisko's Hammond Reef property to the south. However, the gold mineralization on the property is contained within east-west structures contained along the east-west contact shear zone between the Lumby Greenstone volcanics and Marmion batholith intrusion. The centre of the silver-base metal venting system appears to be centrally located around Lumby, Herontrack and Spoon Lake. The rocks in this area show two (2) types of VMS style deposits. 1 - A volcaniclastic dominant system located under the above named lakes 2 - A mafic volcanic flow dominant (massive and pillowed flow) style deposit. Super imposed over the above are gold bearing shear and vein hosted gold mineralization. The Aerodat 1987 airborne survey covering the eastern 2/3 portion of the property has identified numerous other conductors coincident with known sulphide mineralization. A VLF- EM over Lumby, Herontrack and Spoon Lake has identified conductors under all three lakes. The conductors are probably caused by the pyrrhotite-chalcopyrite-pyrite mineralization intersected in the drilling under these lakes by Belmont Resources Inc and Atikokan Resources Inc. Aerodat's 1987 airborne survey over this area identified the same conductors in addition with others on the property. These geophysical electromagnetic anomalies leave many un-drilled targets on the property with both gold and base metal potential. The alteration pattern in each area is consistent with VMS type deposits and with structurally emplaced gold mineralization within the same system.
