Red Hill Project Drill Hole WRH001

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwire - Feb. 24, 2012) - WCB Resources Ltd. ("WCB" or the "Company") (TSX VENTURE:WCB) is pleased to advise that results from drill testing at the Red Hill Project have been received.

A single drill hole, WRH001, was completed at a depth of 358.7m. This hole was targeted on combined strong coincident gold and copper soil anomalism, high order magnetics and a strong Induced Polarisation anomaly. This information was further supported by high order surface gold rock chip samples. Geological mapping supported the mineralisation style to be typical of a skarn type assemblage. The target depth was 160m to 230m down hole.

WRH001 encountered a sequence of silicified limestone and weak magnetite bearing skarn from 1m to 56m down hole at which point a major fault was encountered. Dacitic volcanics were then encountered from 56m to the end of the hole at 358.7m. Several zones of variable pyrite alteration were encountered, the most significant of which was a 1.55m zone of variable pyrite - silica breccia associated with a near vertical fault. Disseminated chalcopyrite was observed in places in this fault zone.

This result returned:

Hole	From (m)	To (m)	Core length	Gold (g/t)	Cu %	Core Recovery
WRH001	219.95	221.5	1.55	0.37	0.54	>95

This drill result in combination with the observed geology logged in the hole does not correlate with the observed magnetic data and modelled induced polarisation chargeability and resistivity data nor does it explain the observed surface geochemistry.

WCB immediately engaged Planetary Geophysics to complete a down hole 3D down hole magnetic survey to define the location and position of the targeted magnetic high anomaly. The results of this survey indicate that the intense magnetic high is positioned immediately to the north of the existing drill hole WRH001.

WCB also engaged an independent Structural Geologist, Dr. Steven King, of Solid Geology to compile a 3D geological model incorporating all drill data, geological data and geophysical data. Dr King has concluded "significant NE trending faulting is observed throughout this region in various geological units. Hole WRH001 can be interpreted to be located on such a NE trending structure. WRH001 appears to have intercepted a major fault which is now defined by the sediment - volcanic contact at 56m. This fault has displaced the magnetic feature and the induced polarisation anomaly. The target still exists immediately to the north."

Commenting on the drill hole WRH001 President and CEO of WCB, Mr. Cameron Switzer, said, "It is important to realise that the project fundamentals including high order gold and copper in soils, high order magnetic anomalism and associated skarn alteration, high order IP response still indicate the existence of the target zone at Red Hill. The results of the 3D down hole magnetic survey in combination with Dr King's structural interpretation indicate that Hole WRH001 did not intersect the projected target due to structural dislocation."

WCB has concluded that the previously defined target has not been tested and proposes that pending regulatory approvals and appropriate weather conditions, additional drill testing will be completed at Red Hill in late 2012.
