News for 'SFMI' - (Silver Falcon Mining (SFMI) Reports Information From Historical Drilling Program on War Eagle Mountain)


MELBA, ID, Apr 21, 2009 (MARKET WIRE via COMTEX) -- Silver Falcon Mining,
Inc.'s (PINKSHEETS: SFMI) Management discovers historical written recap over a
past drilling progra! m on War Eagle Mountain.

This historical recap below states as follows:

Dated May 1, 1991 by D.B.Peterson - "The 1987/88 percussion drilling was
concentrated on the main vein systems and the Cornice area and in and around a
new zone, previously undetected, that is now known as the 'Hot Zone,' discovered
as a result of a structural study based on color air photographs. A prominent
east-west lineament that extended from the Poorman vein system to the
Afterthought system, at the southern end of the Oro Fino Vein system, was
observed and was tested, with excellent results. In 1989, NERCO drilled 25
percussion holes in the 'Hot Zone' and Cornice area, and in the area between
them. The holes obtained several significant intersections. In 1990 NERCO
drilled a further 18 percussion holes that were concentrated in the Cornice area
and the Afterthought extension, the southern projection of the Afterthought
vein. In the Cornice area, two sig! nificant intersections were obtained in hole
#W73. Six holes were drilled on the Afterthought extension, two of which
intersected excellent grades of gold over mineable widths. Hole #W75 was stoped
in ore.

"Modern exploration has succeeded in demonstrating the potential for small,
medium-to-high grade underground deposits to be excellent, as evidenced by the
drilling results in the Afterthought Extension, the 'Hot Zone,' some of the
peripheral areas such as holes #W49, #W51, and #W62; and, the stopes, adits, and
unexplored areas of the existing shafts on War Eagle Mountain. In particular,
the discovery of the 'Hot Zone' and the latter drill holes within the last three
years in an area where no mineralization had previously been recorded,
demonstrates the outstanding potential for further discovery that the property
holds.

"Drilling in outlying areas, where there has been no previous record of
mineralization, has been successful! in intersecting high grade zones over
mineable lengths. This indicates that the potential for further significant
finds is excellent."

Pierre Quilliam, CEO of SFMI, stated, "We are very excited and encouraged by
this historical recap and its findings. Even though this information had been
written over 20-years ago, the relevance reveals significant and vast
mineralization. We are trying to obtain the complete drilling results from the
corporations that were involved in this drilling program. This information will
provide the Company's geologist with further empirical history as they prepare
their comprehensive mining plans going forward."
