ROUYN-NORANDA, QUEBEC--(Marketwire - Sept. 15, 2010) - Explor Resources Inc. (TSX VENTURE:EXS - News) is pleased to announce the results of six (6) of the 18 holes completed during the most recent drilling program. Holes #8 to #13 are reported in this press release. Hole #8 and #9 were deepening of the previous holes to determine structure and mineralization continuity. The program was designed to confirm the model on the Timmins Porcupine West (TPW) Property announced in the September 11, 2009 press release and to find higher grade mineralization. To date every drill hole drilled by Explor on the TPW Property has intersected gold mineralization. The first phase of drilling was concentrated on mineralized Zone "A" located on the south limb of the geo-syncline. Mineralized Zone "A" is one of five (5) mineralized zones identified on the property. A series of 4 holes (Line #1) were drilled perpendicular to the structure and spaced at approximately 300 meter spacing to intersect and confirm the existence of the mineralized structure at or below 400 meters of vertical depth. A second series of 4 holes were drilled on line #2 approximately 300 meters to the north of line #1 to intersect the mineralized zone between 600 and 1000 meters of vertical depth. A partial summary of the results is as follows:

Diamond Drill Hole #8 was initially drilled 300 meters to the west of Hole #1 on line #1 to test the westerly extension of the structure. At the time this hole was drilled it added 300 meters to the strike length of the mineralization. With this hole the mineralized structure has been confirmed for over 1200 meters of strike length at a vertical depth from 400 to 600 meters. The deepening of the hole was to determine if mineralization extended to depth. This was confirmed.

Diamond Drill Hole #9 was designed to test the "B" Zone at a shallow depth. It was drilled at approximately 585 meters to the west of Hole #8. This hole intersected 4 mineralized zones. One of the mineralized zones intersected was 5.5 meters in width with a vein in the zone with a grade of 14.23 grams/tonne over 0.5 meters. This hole was deepened in this round of diamond drilling to test for the extension of the "A" zone at depth. This was confirmed, with a grade and width of 5.38 g/tonne Au over 11.15 meters. This included an intersection of 22.63 g/tonne Au over 1.45 meters. This intersection of the "A" zone has increased the strike length of the gold mineralization to over 1875 meters. The structure remains open along strike and at depth

Diamond Drill Hole #10 was drilled behind and under Hole #4 on line #2 to test the eastern and depth extension of the mineralization. The mineralization was confirmed to be still open at depth on strike to the east.

Diamond Drill Hole #11 was drilled behind and under Hole #1 on line #2 to test the depth extension of the mineralization. The mineralization was confirmed to be open at depth.

Diamond Drill Hole #12 was drilled 50 meters to the west of Hole #6 on line #1 to test for continuity and determine if an increase in grade and au mineralization could be observed as drilling progressed to the west. This has been confirmed.

Diamond Drill Hole #13 was drilled on line #2 to the west of Hole #11 under and behind hole #8 to test the depth extension of the mineralization. The mineralization was confirmed to be open on strike to the west and at depth.

The Timmins Porcupine West Gold Property consists of 110 unpatented mining units located in the Bristol and Ogden Townships in the Timmins-Porcupine Mining Camp for a total 1,995 hectares. The property is contiguous with Lakeshore Gold West Timmins Mine. The highway 101 bisects the property and provides access from the city of Timmins located 13 km to the east.

The property has been explored since 1927 by numerous ground geophysical surveys and diamond drilling of up to 111 holes. In 1984, Dome Exploration discovered and delineated a gold mineralized zone that was approximately 350 meters long and 45 meters wide and is open below 350 meters of vertical depth.

The "A" Zone identified through modelling strikes east northeast and dips to the north at 70 to 80 degrees. The drilling has confirms the association of gold mineralization with Quartz feldspar (QFP) and syenite porphyry, found at both the Lakeshore and West Timmins Properties. Five mineralized zones designated "A" thru "E" have been identified. The larger zones of mineralization display a strong spatial relationship with proximity to syenite intrusive rocks and high Fe-tholeitic volcanic rocks.

Our current interpretation is that the syenite porphyry intruded a dilatant zone developed at the intersection of the Porcupine-Destor and South Limb faults. These faults developed along high Fe-tholeiitic metavolcano-sedimentary contacts that provided the necessary Fe to precipitate sulphide mineralization during hydrothermal activity. Along the south limb of the geo-syncline, the high Fe-tholeitic volcanic horizon is often present only as remnant xenolithic or fault mega-blocks due to disruption by the South Limb fault and intrusions of QFP and syenite porphyry.

The structural environment is favourable for large bodies of syenite to have intruded further at depth. The intersections of the major faults and the contacts of the favourable high Fe-tholeitic volcanic host rocks especially near the synclinal fold hinge provide the best target areas.

The Timmins Porcupine West Project has as a Target Model "The Hollinger-McIntyre-Coniaurum System." The Hollinger-McIntyre-Coniaurum (HMC) System has produced a total of over 30 million oz of gold is spatially associated with the Pearl Lake Porphyry. The high-grade gold bearing quartz veins which hosted the bulk of the gold at the HMC occurred in the adjacent mafic volcanics, located outboard from the porphyry itself.
