(TSX:SPD) (the \"Company\") is pleased to announce results from its nine hole 2011 drilling program\n at the Siltstone Zone of its Rusty Project, located in the Selwyn\n Basin, in the central Yukon and adjacent to  ATAC Resources Inc.'s\n Rakla (RAU) Gold Project. Significant results include:\n\n\nRM11-003 with 0.74 m of 1,055 g/t silver, 2.95% lead and 5.27% zinc \n from a depth of 18.5 m;\n\n\nRM11-007 with 5.40 m of 1,008 g/t silver, 22.27% lead and 3.88% zinc \n from a depth of 50.0 m including 1.59 m of 3,099 g/t silver, 71.27%\n lead  and 3.32% zinc; and\n\n\nRM11-009 with 0.66 m of 386 g/t silver, 7.80% lead and 10.17% zinc from\n a depth of 102.8 m.\n\n\nA complete table of results and location maps can be found on the\n Company's website at:http://www.silverpredator.com/documents/SPD-NR12-02%202011-02027-Rusty-Drill-Results-FINAL.pdf\n\n\nThe Siltstone Zone \nThe Siltstone Zone is one of twelve identified distinct mineral showings\n located across the Rusty Project. Regional soil sampling was undertaken\n in August 2011, and the Siltstone Zone showing was targeted with 1,335\n m of diamond drilling in late September and October 2011 to validate\n historical drill intercepts and grades and test for the continuation of\n mineralization along strike. Previous drilling at the Siltstone Zone\n had outlined a high-grade lens of silver rich material within a\n northeast trending fracture system that was exposed by historic\n trenching over a strike length of 125 m. (1).\n\n\nThe Company's 2011 drilling program succeeded in expanding the Siltstone\n Zone along strike to the northeast as well as confirming historic\n mineralized intercepts. As a result, the Siltstone Zone now extends for\n more than 250 m along strike and remains open in both directions as\n well as down dip.\n\n\nMineralization at the Siltstone zone consists of a planar \"cloud\" of\n stockwork quartz-carbonate veinlets with galena ± sphalerite ±\n chalcopyrite and an irregularly shaped lens of massive galena,\n tetrahedrite, freibergite and sphalerite parallel to and truncated by a\n fault. The primary Siltstone vein itself strikes northeast and dips\n moderately to steeply southeast.  Where the vein margins are intac...
