Eastford Lake Gold Project Discovery Hole: Explor Drills 12.7 g/t Au Over 7.5 M on Eastford

ROUYN-NORANDA, CANADA, Jun 10, 2008 (MARKET WIRE via COMTEX News Network) --

Explor Resources Inc. (TSX VENTURE: EXS) is pleased to announce that the two (2) additional holes that were drilled on the Eastford Lake Gold Project following the completion of the Phase IV diamond drill program have been completed. The property is situated in the Kerrs, Warden, Milligan Townships and the Rayner Lake area, south-west of Lake Abitibi, Ontario, 90 km east of the Timmins-Porcupine gold mining camp. The Eastford Lake Property consists of 170 contiguous unpatented mining units for a total of 3,100 hectares.

Previously drilled Holes #5 and #6, along with the geophysics created a vector pointing in the direction of a 600 m long magnetic low along strike of the previously announced gold intersections (press release dated May 06, 2008). Hole # 7 targeting the 600 m long mag low has been completed on the Lynx Gold Zone with the following fire assay results as determined by Swastika Lab of Swastika, Ontario:

Hole #             From       To       Interval           Gold
--------------------------------------------------------------------
                     (m)      (m)      (m)  (ft)   (g/tonne) (oz/ton)
Hole # 7  Zone 1  404.0    411.5      7.5  24.6        12.7    0.370

Two sets of check assays have confirmed these results. Subsequent to the assays being received, 10 additional meters of core on either side of the intersection have been sampled and sent to the lab for assay. The lower 4 meter section contained VG (Visible Gold) has been sent to the lab for analysis. The results for hole #8 which has been drilled 800 meters to the north of Hole #7 are pending. True width has yet to be determined.

The combination of widespread ankerite alteration and gold mineralization hosted by many different rock types, including quartz-feldspar porphyry, altered ultramafics, tholeiitic basalt and metasediments are reminiscent of the diverse types of gold mineralization found in major gold camps (e.g. Hollinger-McIntyre System and Dome Mine in the Porcupine Gold Camp).
