180 Meter Step out Drilling to South of Zone 1 at Sacre-Coeur′s Million Mountain Project Adds Mineralization: Results Include 10.11 M @ 3.51 g/t Au

SACRE-COEUR MINERALS, LTD. (the 'Company?) today announced
further results from its drilling program aimed at expanding the Zone 1
hard-rock resource on its Million Mountain property located in Guyana.
Drill hole MM18010 which was drilled 180 meters South of the main
resource body returned 1.2 g/t Au over 29.91 meters beginning at a depth
of six meters. A second zone of 23.2 meters grading 1.8 g/t Au, which
includes 10.11 meter grading 3.51 g/t Au was intersected at a depth of
274.1 meters. Finally, a third zone grading 0.65 g/t Au over 28.26
meters was intersected at a depth of 384.84 meters and continued to the
bottom of hole MM18010. Numerous narrow mineralized stringers ranging in
width from 0.5 meters to over 3 meters and grading from 0.5 g/t Au to
1.81 g/t Au were encountered between the three main mineralized zones
noted above.
In September 2008, the Company reported an NI 43-101 compliant interim
resource estimate of Measured Resources of 12,119,285 tonnes grading 1.0
g/t Au and Indicated Resources of 2,175,278 tons grading 0.9 g/t Au.
Total contained gold was 451,397 tr oz Au (388,456 tr oz Au Measured and
62,941 tr oz Au Indicated). As reported in the PR issued in June 2010,
commencing in early 2010, following completion of initial scout drilling
of additional target zones along the 20km Million Mountain structural
trend, drilling was resumed on Million Mountain Zone 1 to continue
expansion of the Zone 1 resource.
Since completion of the NI 43-101 compliant interim resource estimate in
September 2008, the Company has completed 48 additional holes on Zone 1,
the results of which have been reported in PR′s issued periodically
since that time. Drilling is also currently being conducted at Million
Mountain Zone 9 aimed to define a resource in this prospective area.
Concurrently a ground geophysical program is being conducted at Zone 1
to further develop expansion drill targets there as announced in the PR
issued in July 2010. Upon completion of the Zone 1 and Zone 9 ground
geophysics program and interpretation of the results, drilling on both
zones will resume to follow-up additional targets identified by the
geophysics program, which includes both ground magnetic and induced
polarization surveys.

Holes MM18210, MM18410, and MM18510 all intersected short intervals of
gold mineralization ranging to 3.58 meters in length with grades ranging
to 8.04 g/t Au.
We are pleased that Zone 1 step out drilling continues to be productive.
With guidance provided by the results of our current geophysical
programs on Zone 1, we will be testing further expansion of this
mineralized body in addition to new targets indicated at Zone 9.
