Strateco Files Form 15F to Terminate Its Reporting Obligations in the United States

BOUCHERVILLE, QUEBEC--(Marketwire - March 15, 2011) - Strateco Resources Inc. ("Strateco" or "the Company")(TSX:RSC)(FRANKFURT:RF9)(OTCC:SRSIF) announces today that it will file a Form 15F as a Foreign Private Issuer with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") to terminate the registration of its common shares under the Securities & Exchange Act of 1934. As a result of this filing, Strateco's obligation to file quarterly reports under Form 10-Q, occasional reports under Form 8-K and annual reports under Form 10-K with the SEC, will be suspended immediately.

The Company's common shares have never been listed on a United States stock exchange and the trading of the Company' shares on the Pink Sheets (OTC grey market) represents less than 5% of the worldwide trading volume of the Company. Strateco will however be maintaining the listing of its common shares on the Toronto Stock Exchange ("TSX") in Canada, its primary trading market.

Taking into consideration the interests of its shareholders, Strateco decided to cease its reporting obligations in the United States to substantially reduce the Company's regulatory compliance costs and efforts associated with the SEC requirements. Strateco will continue to be a reporting issuer in Canada, in compliance with laws and rules of the Québec, Alberta, Ontario, and British Columbia Securities Commissions. Shareholders will also find links to the information that is filed publicly with Canadian regulatory authorities, in the English language, on the Company's website at www.stratecoinc.com, on SEDAR's website at www.sedar.com and on SEDI's website at www.sedi.ca.
