Bearing Resources Ltd. ("Bearing", or the "Company") (TSX-V Symbol BRZ.V) announces results from its 1,172 metre (7 hole) diamond drill program at the Parrandera gold-copper property located in the Mapimi region of Durango, Mexico. The Parrandera property was the initial and smallest property (350 hectare) optioned when establishing the Mapimi project (40,000 hectares). The drill program was highlighted by drill hole PA12-01 which returned 12.95 metres grading 0.858 grams per tonne (g/t) gold beginning at a down hole depth of 16.3 metres. While the drill program identified gold and copper mineralization over narrow intercepts, the results did not meet Bearing's exploration target criteria therefore the Parrandera property will be returned to the property vendors.
The Company will continue to focus its exploration efforts at its Mapimi project, targeting precious and base metal-rich systems analogous to the Goldcorp's Penasquito and Camino Rojo deposits. The remaining Mapimi project comprises a large and contiguous land position (the wholly owned 26,000 hectare Pedro & the optioned 14,000 hectare KM 66 properties) totalling approximately 40,000 hectares in the highly prospective Altiplano Region of eastern Durango (see map at www.bearingresources.ca). The Mapimi silver-gold project area hosts geology and occurrences that exhibit many of the essential characteristics that typify these deposits, in particular, breccia hosted and carbonate replacement mineralization associated with buried porphyry mineralization (KM 66 property). The Company believes the precious and base metal mineralization identified to date on the Mapimi project may well be indicative of a larger mineral system under shallow cover.
The drill program tested the Parrandera target for intrusion related precious and base metal mineralization. Prospecting, soil geochemical sampling and an induced polarization ("IP") survey had outlined a 1,500 metre by 500 metre anomaly. The anomaly consists of a coincident gold, copper and zinc soil anomaly with partially coincident IP chargeability highs located within areas of historical pitting and mining.
Drill results are presented below in Table 1. A drill plan is posted on the Company's website at www.bearingresources.ca. Drill intervals reported are core lengths; true widths are not known.

QAQC
HQ diameter core samples were collected by sawing with one-half of the core placed in sealed plastic bags. Sample lengths were from 0.2 metres to 3.1 metres with an average sample length of 1.3 metres. Sample lengths were selected to reflect geological observations. All of the samples mentioned in this release were prepared and analyzed by ALS Chemex at its labs in Chihuahua, Mexico, and Vancouver, Canada. Silver, copper, zinc and lead were analyzed as part of a multi-element inductively coupled argon plasma (ICP) package using aqua regia digestion with over-limit results being reanalyzed with assay procedures using ICP-AES. Gold analyses were performed on a 30-gram sub-sample by fire assay with an ICP-AES finish. The project is under the direct supervision of David Tupper, P.Geo., the Company's vice-president of exploration. The Company employs a rigorous quality assurance and quality control program consisting of control samples that include standardized material, blanks and duplicates. David Tupper, P.Geo., who is a qualified person within the context of National Instrument 43-101, has read and takes responsibility for this news release.
