(\"ELN\" and the\n \"Company\") (TSXV: ELN) (Frankfurt: E7Q) is pleased to announce\n significant diamond drill results of the 2011, 15 hole drill program on\n the Murray Brook Massive-Sulfide Deposit located in the Bathurst Mining\n camp, New Brunswick, Canada. Votorantim Metals Canada Inc (VM Canada)\n is operator of the program.\n\n\nA total of 15 holes have been completed to date on the Murray Brook\n project. Table 1 below illustrates significant drill results from Phase\n I, 3132.5 meters, drill program, included massive sulphide\n intersections.\n\n\nPhase I drilling campaign focused on three objectives;\n\n\nInfill drilling; Drill holes are located between historical, collar locations; where\n there are up to 100 meters between reported intercepts in historical\n holes, compiled from work reports of earlier drill programs.\n\n\nStep-out drilling; to expand the size of the massive-sulfide body.\n\n\nDue Diligent drilling; Votorantim, as operator, conducted a 595.2 meters diamond drilling\n program to confirm results reported from previous drilling programs on\n the Murray Brook mining lease.\n\n\nThe program incorporated recommendations by PE Consulting to ensure the\n database is compliant with protocols required for a NI 43-101 resource\n calculation.
