Progress Report Eastford Lake Lynx Gold Zone: Explor Intersects 142.26 Grams/Tonne Over 3.0 Meters

Explor Resources Inc. (TSX VENTURE: EXS) is pleased to announce that the LYNX Gold Zone (Press Release June 10, 2008) has been traced using down hole geophysics. Explor has completed three holes wedged off-of Hole #7 in order to confirm the geophysical signature as determined by the mise a la masse down hole survey reported in the press release dated December 02, 2008. The main vein of the Lynx Gold Zone containing visible gold appears to strike in a north-north westerly direction and is dipping to the south-south westerly direction. The wedge holes have intersected visible gold (VG) similar to that intersected in Hole # 7.

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.

Assays were conducted on sawn NQ sized half-core sections. Further drilling is required before the true width of the reported intersection can be determined. The saw blade is routinely cleaned between samples when visible gold is noted during logging and sampling of the drill core. Assays were conducted by Techni-lab of Ste-Germaine de Boule, Quebec using standard fire assay on a 30-gram (one assay tonne) sample with a gravimetric finish procedure. Standard, blanks and check assays were included at regular intervals in each sample batch. Gold standards were prepared by CDN Resource Laboratories Ltd.

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). Explor will continue drilling the newly defined gold zone once the modelling is complete.
